Good to see them moving on from the yellow sash, too much losing associated with that thing.

They should go for a plain all black number.

Just totally forget about any design in the jumper, and make it all about the socks.

 

[George Kramer]

One of my sons mates a few years back was playing U14's for Norwood Payneham and Macca was helping coach the juniors at that time. Within weeks he had the kids perfecting the stab pass, none of the floaty stuff they were used to dishing up.

I’ve got a Macca story with juniors, he’s a legend how he goes out of his way.

Forget these feral Bay flogs

 

[Cromulant]

Macca is a genuine footy legend, and it's arguable his work post playing career leaves a bigger legacy than his time off it.

 

[cleanhands]

He was my 2nd favourite player behind the big #9 Rocky - I spent a fair bit of my youth at the Parade and I reckon Macca would laugh and probably nod!

Carried em

 

[weekend at bernies]

He thought this was real. I think a lifetime ban is pretty soft and that he should have to pay reparations.

clearly legit

 

[Sizzlepack]

Haven't heard anything for about a week regarding off-field acquisitions, since the Davis appointment and the news that we were after Wright. Does anyone have any insight into that space?

 

[Slime Roy]

i know many say he is quite a smart guy who only acts up like a clown (at least he has stopped the toilet humour recently which i cant imagine appeals to anyone but primary school kids). Rowey seems like an overly parochial numbnut to me overall and its embarrassing comparing Rowey to SEN presenters and 3AW's Healy etc.

That said, Timmy G is much better and a good addition to the sports show

SEN... Really?
If it was between Rowey & the Andy Maher/Gazey Drive Time Show..I know which I'd prefer. & who of those is more of a clown (with little to no footy intellect)

 

[119others]

Wasn’t that the gold medal game?

Mr_Moogle



This was 100% legit and extraordinary. I think the chance was 0.0000000000000001% (or similar considering 3 point % is normally 35-40% and he scored over 100 in a row!)

 

[spenze]

Depends on how you said it to him! Neville was a great player. I worked with a Glenelg defender who used to stand him and he said he was the most difficult opponent he ever had.

Kuhlmann?

 

[Shifty Crow]

If Dan Curtins girlfriend is from Adelaide he’s never moving back home.

Just saw them on the red carpet, he is batting way above his average

She’s a Perth girl, she moved over with Dan

[Syd Crow]

Kuhlmann?

No

 

[jenny61_99]

Speaking of radio, Trade Radio is taking the absolute piss out of us with the amount of ads they run. Seems to be getting worse. How on earth do they get away with that?

Wait until it’s up on Spotify about an hour later and you get it ad free.

 

[The Red Menace]

This is positive.

 

[whattagun07]

This is positive.

ermm....that better not mean future 1st

 

[Danger in Texas]

ermm....that better not mean future 1st

Hard to mis-type ‘first’ as ‘second’

 

[whattagun07]

 

[latinoheat]

This is positive.

From that article, Owies is asking for $700 to $800k per annum … tell him he’s dreaming

 

[cleanhands]

[Scorpus]

Wow. That's Xavier Richards type stupidity from his manager.

Would barely be worth half that as a below average small forward

 

[whattagun07]

From that article, Owies is asking for $700 to $800k per annum … tell him he’s dreaming

Owies' manager walking into his meeting to ask for 700-800k

 

[MarcusP2]

From that article, Owies is asking for $700 to $800k per annum … tell him he’s dreaming

Surely that could only mean he's got an offer from Carlton and that's what would take for him to be bothered moving. Bizarre

 

[Peter Doherty]

This is positive.

Weird...

 

[crow2crow]

I believe you, but his ban should be lifted. A life ban is ridiculous.

And people who reflexively report posts are equally ridiculous. HTFU.

why do you and others care so much?

Rory Laird, Queensland is a great place to live !!

How is every team just about claiming they were the third youngest? every team cant be the THIRD YOUNGEST

 

[crow2crow]

Weird...

surprising if gws accept. this suggests to me we want to use F1 and so they need F2 left alone.

 

[Hodgy]

Weird...

So we don’t think Peatling is worth a future second but we’re more than happy to throw pick 28 for ANB?
