Colberts mark was *right in front of me*. Should've been paid.
Libbas point was not a goal though

Modra's mark also not paid in that same game as the Colbert one. Funny how that never gets mentioned. Or the goal given to Geelong that came off of Bickley's shin.

Or the fact there was 50 minutes of football after Colbert's 'mark'

Podsiadly and Smyth will join Crows CEO Andrew Fagan and football director and board member Mark Ricciuto on the panel.
In announcing the panel via a statement on the Crows website, Fagan said he believed the club had settled on the right mix of football and coaching acumen, with the panel to meet in coming days to finalise the selection criteria.

“James brings a wealth of football experience as a recently retired player who has spent time in the coaches box and at the AFL where he has been part of a team analysing the trends of the modern game,” Fagan said.
“Meanwhile, Phil is an internationally experienced basketball player and coach who has won six NBL championships and provided leadership and mentoring expertise to AFL coaches and players over a number of years.
Pods might be worth keeping around in an off field role of some sort.
 
Just spotted Birdman having a coffee with Aaron and Orazio down at Henley.

Boakey not far from them too.
Makes it hard to believe your other sightings when you post bullshit like this. Orazio is definitely not there .
 
Unless it's a different Orazio and Aaron and Birdbrain thinks he's talking to footballers.

Maybe they're trying to recruit Burton to Essendon.

The reason Pods is on the selection panel instead of Burton? Because J-Pod is the new head of football.

As long as he hasn't already invested 200k in a ponzi scheme prior sometime prior to signing with us, I'm happy.
 
Podsiadly would be a big upgrade on Burton.

Better player, more successful career, better operator, better person, better coach, better brain, better experience

Considering nothing is a big upgrade on Burton, it's not particularly surprising ;)

I'm not particularly enthused by J-Pod taking over, the lack of coaching experience is a big concern with GM of football. The big positive however is his pathway into AFL would probably be well suited to GM seeing he was at 4 clubs throughout his tenure, with two of them being decently successful, and is apparently a switched on bloke on top of that.
