    The personal life of a footballer

    Retired from A grade cricket at the ripe age of 41, I think. I am/was one of his teammates. He has always said that his was a spud footballer. He often apologises to me that he was a wasted Richmonds' time and money as I am a Tiger man myself. Whenever we can get him to join in having a kick...

    youre advice is noted. Now **** off and get a kick boundary rider.

    Under-19 Stars who Amounted to Nothing

    Shep was a sensation cricketer as well. He got stuck into the punting scene and was too much of a socialiser to make it big. He once made 210 out of 260odd in a final and got beat!

    Under-19 Stars who Amounted to Nothing

    Croally got the best out of himself. I think he kept Mick Martyn to 2 goals leaving him stranded on 98 for the season. I remember one of the players players playing with a broken jaw. Mouth fully wired up and all. Cant remember who it was though. I vaguely remember that a guy by the name of...

    From what I remember Dallas was recruited to the Pies in 90 from Melbourne via the bush. Good little back pocket/rover type. Was never gonna bypass Shawry or Kerro.

    Both had far more application than Tarps but couldnt near him one on one. Probably like the grog too much though and his missus was a strange cookie. Sybil we used to call her.

    Tarpey was a real good player. Definately more talented than Kelly and Starcevich and about the same as Christian. Never got a look in due to being a local. He copped a hammering at a night club and never really recovered.

    Under-19 Stars who Amounted to Nothing

    everyone knows that BT's book was non-fiction. There were players approached by lawyers to proceed legally against Barge. Ask Keaysy and he'll tell you how much of a **** up he himself was/is. He does however say that Barge actually substituted things he done to portray other players messing up.

    Under-19 Stars who Amounted to Nothing

    I've known Keaysy for a long time and he says that he was flyblown by the age of 20. He says he knew his time was up at the Pies when in the last practise match of season 1990 he kicked 6 on Jason Croall in the first half and 6 on Ron Mckeown in the second. The were both starters in the 1's and...

    You are a watsonia boy latemail! Is is true that ex assistant coach down there is heading up Plenty Rd this year?

    Keep up with the times buddy! I think he is mid 30's. Always looks very fit. If one stays fit, playing to 40 shouldn't be so hard in Division 2. In saying that I would think the coach would only go in with either of Jinnette or Volpe and not both. Heard Jinnette has a short session down...

    Exactly,does anyone know if Whittlesea have admitted they stuffed up on the toss or are they defending the decision to kick against the wind? Dont know. Ask your mate to ask his fairy floss son. He might know. He would have made a difference NOT. Enough pansies already thanks.

    I think that you hold a bitter grudge on Pete Bugden. Three posts in 2 years all referring to what a joke The Bug is. Jealousy is certainly not a virtue. Obviously your record is not as impressive at Pete's. The Bugs record even outshines his fat pig , ex overrated AFL player that does't like...

    Here we go! Another Macleod coward! The club to have never done anything of note. Big bunch of powder puffs. Hope you do make it next year so all of you can get your ultimate wish. Anal sex! It will be like being in prison for 12 months. Arse beatings once a week.

    Great effort Whittlesea! Great coaching effort Mr. Bugden. The Eagles have come a long way in the last 2 seaons. Believe you me it is no mean feat to step into a closed shop club like Whittlesea and turn it's culture on its head. To rid the side of non winning also rans into a pletherer of...

    I am not bagging the current crop. Cant remember saying that. I actually believe they are doing a fine job. I would like to know though, what mistakes did The Bug make in your opinion last year? It could only be revolved around the last 3 games. Most players severely under performed finals time...

    Barden is a terrific player and would be quite capable in 1st division. What people have to realise is that there is a 20 goal gap between the 2 divisions. My question though is why is Barden playing FF? Is he carrying injuries? Billy is in the best half dozen onballers in the competition. He...

    What mistakes did The Bug make last year? He didnt miss goals from 15 metres out. He didnt ask their 1st and 2nd B&F in Jinette and Booker not to get a touch. What he has learned is that there has been a legacy of weak individuals stealing everyone elses' oxygen for years at Whittlesea. Hence he...

    Catch 22 situation. Only the teams clear at the top of the ladder can probably train heavy for a good month before finals. Not unlike when we hear about swimmers and their "hard training". Long distance heavy training. eg lactic acid running. This will very beneficial come finals as after the...

    As we have heard from your post and another just previously, a coaches role is more than just moving witches hats and a magnet board. The Hustbridge coach on that day must have outcoached his opposite number. Puffa must have done the same at the weekend. I'll never forget last year when Monty...

    Probably biggest upset of the decade. Pity the Bridges had mass retirements etc. Nasty game by all accounts. Didn't that blonk from the Hammerheads go off his nut?

    Ewert is a good player for Macleod but could be hurtful against the real big teams come finals time.Has a tendancy to make half hearted leads thus not hitting the ball with urgency. Does not split packs like good forwards should. He is more of a kick it over his head running back type forward...

    The same as Macleod, Mernda and Watsonia. All lost when it counted. No prizes for winning the odd finals match. Only Thommo could gloat on last year. All the rest can please themselves.

    They're Aboriginal. They dont have to train. Exactly why Fitzroy are not dominating because collectively they are fat and lazy. They are obviously allowed to get away with it. You can see it in a match against a decent opposition. They are football cheats that only run 1 way. Miles away from...

    I'm not involved in the club.Never have been. It is an appealing club though. May be able to help in the future but just a tad busy for the moment. I do agree with previous posts that Jimmy has been a revelation at Morang but maybe sometimes its seems to be his way or no way. Sometimes you have...
