Not to mention Henry apparently has deals on the table in the 500-600k range. This would put him close to the top 10 players at whatever club he ends up at.

And doesn’t Sumich think wc can get Henry free via preseason draft ?

The Nokia 3310 was what I used to text my mates when MSN cut out because my mum needed to use the phone.

Omg man, MSN and Myspace were the shit when I started high school and then by the end of high school it was all Facebook and Twitter. What a downgrade.

 

[King Tenz]

Haha same. That model was the first mobile i ever got, was my 13th birthday present and it was a big big deal. I thought Snake 2 was cutting-edge.

Kids these days are already proficient on fancy tablets before they're even toilet trained.

I remember my Dad had a Nokia 3310, I always use to play snake on it. While I had a Motorola, loved that phone.

Wagner hitting the right notes after surprise Docker debut

The key for Wagner has been playing with freedom and moving on quickly from mistakes, rather than worrying about what his form might mean for his place in the team.

"To be honest, I wasn't really expecting to come in [against Gold Coast in round five], so I was a bit rattled and I tried to do everything too right and put a bit too much pressure on myself," Wagner told AFL.com.au this week.

"I got smothered a few times and was rattled early, but the more footy you play through the year the more confident you get with your kicking and I've just kept going for my kicks after those mistakes.”

The defender also highlighted the impact of veteran forward Michael Walters

on his last three weeks, with the 32-year-old a constant source of encouragement from the other end of the ground.

"Sonny has been huge for me, running all the way from the forward line to say just keep going for [your kicks]," Wagner said.

"He's been massive actually and the biggest one who has said, just keep going for it and that's what you're there for.

"I'm still missing a few, but it's why you're an AFL player, so it's what I should be doing. If you're not using your strengths, then what's the point of even being there?"

Darcy to Geelong and Henry to Eagles.

That's his call.

We will see.

He was right about Acres.

Gee, this news paper gig is pretty easy. Haselby stating the obvious.

 

[FreoRicci]

I'm pretty sure its this one for this year

It is.
Confirmed in email to members. Photoshop of the jumper to follow.
Assuming BankWest will be on the back in a throwback

Retro gear is amazing

Good thing we went through some weird phases with real out-there shirts that never would have worked permanently, that we can fall back on for retro rounds and throwbacks

The mainly green shirt is my favourite though, the OG away jumper that we should really resurrect as our away jumper if there is no clash <3

Imagine if BankWest went old school and did their blue and white logo.

Most boring meh of all our jumpers imo. Just cos it existed doesn’t mean we have to use it. The OG home and away will always be the best for retro round.

Yep, this is the one I like the least. Much prefer the original 90's anchor jumpers.

They're clearly going through all our jumpers before they consider repeats. And the best one is the 95-97 away jumper.

On another tack, just heard. this (paraphrased?) quote from Machiavelli: “Break bad news swiftly. Share the good news out (more slowly ).”

They did that in 2021

 

[Paracleet]

I suspect they're saving the purple anchor on white for a season we're doing well in..

 

[Taylor]

As long as we get the white anchor on purple too, that's ok.

 

[FreoRicci]

Would love it if they had both home and away. One for the actual retro (home for example) round then the next week opposite (away- purple anchor on white). Would sell like crazy.

Actually my favourite tbh.
Don’t get the green away nostalgia love.
It’s pretty dull.
Thought this week’s retro jumper displayed all the colours in a classier way

Cant wait until All-cok has left the club. Absolute snake of a slimy business man. Place will be much better without him. Stupid comments to make by a senior figure before leaving. Does nothing but give the media useless crap to talk about.
