    Coach Men's Senior Coach: Brad Scott

    From a distance, a really impressive set of press conferences and media engagements from Brad Scott. It seems like there is a clarity that is permeating through the whole place. Notwithstanding the circus that preceded his appointment, I think the decision to go with him will turn out to be a...

    AFL Player #23: Harrison Jones - Clocks up 50th game v Gold Coast - 5/8

    Two years ago, and even last year, I thought this guy was going to be a very special player. It saddens me to see him out of the side and I am hoping it is just a temporary thing.

    Maybe? Her body language was confident but the 'we presented well to him, he presented well to us' is the kind of thing you say exiting a job interview for mine.

    Club Mgmt. Board of Directors as led by President Dave Barham

    One of the things that was impressive about the Clarkson hawks was their skills across the board, particularly by foot - our list has a fair way to go I reckon

    Some pics from Lisbon, apparently the oldest western European city after Athens. Like Porto, it's very hilly but no quality francesinha on offer it seems. The pink street was historically frequented by sailors and prostitutes but is pretty tame now.

    AFL Autopsy RND 19: Loss to the Pies

    Back from the UK and first game I have seen in 5 years. Lost my voice. The noise and terraces shaking as Elliot kicked that goal was grand final like. Just an awesome game (thanks Dero). IMHO a lot to more to like about the bombers in the next few years than carringbush and a great game for the...

    New Forest in Hampshire. It's nice enough I guess but there are just no truly wild places in this country. I am coming back to Australia in a week and I can't wait to spend some time in the Australian bush - a lovely term that captures just about anything outside the city. The 'scrub' is...

    AFL Player # 9: Dylan Shiel - Sticking around for 2025, training in the backline - 18/10

    I am sure lots of dickheads play finals footy every year, and win soccer matches and cricket matches and the rest. A lot that don't carry on like dickheads also play finals footy and win cricket matches and tennis tournaments every year. I was making an observation about how it looked to me. I'm...

    AFL Player # 9: Dylan Shiel - Sticking around for 2025, training in the backline - 18/10

    I've seen it a few times and, to me, Parker just looks like a dickhe**. Doing it half a dozen times makes him look even sillier. Surely Matthew Lloyd didn't used to be so easily triggered?

    Coaching Staff Former Coach Ben "Truck" Rutten - Sacked for real this time - 21/8

    Very good presser from Rutten tonight. It seems like there is an internal battle between Rutten and some senior players. My guess is that it's McGrath (who has put off contract talks apparently), Parish, Merrett and Shiel, who may think they are are at Dusty / Bont / Danger levels. Perhaps, the...

    AFL Autopsy RND 3: Done by the Dees

    I was afraid to look at the replay given some of the comments in here - expecting a car crash. Given our outs, it was nowhere near as awful as I expected. Even in the first quarter better kicking and a bit of luck and we could have had 4 goals on the board.

    Maybe the pandemic has forced us to look more closely at what is nearby because we haven’t been able to travel further away. The Ouse Valley Viaduct (less than 20 miles away from me) was built in 1842, cost £38,500 and contains 11 million bricks, minus the odd few that fall out from time to time.

    Delisted Adrian Dodoro - Lodged a dispute with FairWork. Paid out. Gone. #putoutyourjackets

    I like this new category you call the super elite. Linking it to height and size parameters for 'inside' midfielders should make recruiting easier. After all, we wouldn't want to recruit a Michael Voss (183 cm) or a Joel Selwood (182 cm), and definitely need to avoid the Sam Mitchell (180 cm) /...

    Scenes around Seville. Seville was very quiet. Bombers beat Adelaide while I was away. I think Essendon wins about 85% of the time when I am away. 40 degrees - many sangrias flamenco in a pandemic

    OMG please! Walla, stringer, mckenna off half back, hooker going forward late and kicking goals, Francis, Saad running through the middle etc. - all bloody joyous EFC is one of the most entertaining sides going around. Improvement is needed elsewhere, not in the entertaining/joyous area
