[SMaturin]

Apropos of nothing except yesterday’s news, I find Tony Jones unbearable.

To be fair, he has only been available to coach for about 17 of those 100 years.

I was going to mention also that 4 out of one hundred gives him a 4% strike rate but I feared someone would take me seriously.

Sorry but you are incorrect - more media hype which was only reported this week - if he was speaking to them in May why has it only come out now. I can tell you North have definitely been speaking to his manager since around that time.

If "North have definitely been speaking to his manager since around that time", then why haven't we signed him up in the last 3 months? Noble has been gone for a month, why hasn't Clarko signed in that time?? Has the club not done a good enough job of being able to sell the role to him?

Perhaps it's because he was advised by Essendon when they were speaking with him back in May, to not make any decisions on his next coaching role until the end of the year, as they may have a job for him at that time. Well what do you know, it's now the end of year, the Bombers are looking for a new coach, and Clarko hasn't signed with any one else yet.

It's a theory that should not be dismissed.

The number of batteries it takes to power Caro's vibrator

I heard the vibrator goes limp at the sight of Caro.

Should I submit this one?

Little Billy was asked by his teacher to give the definition of contagious……

His response was that the painter they hired to paint their house used the wrong brushes and it took the * * * * ages.

A guy is drunk walking down the street and walks up to a cop and said “someone stole my car” the cop replies “where was it” the drunk holds up his car key and says “it was on the end of this key” cop responds “gee I dunno, better go to the police station and they help you with the proper forms. Drunk says “ok” cop adds “ but before you go in to town you’d better do up your fly” the drunk says “oh man they got my girl too”

I love this from the AFL media. So if Rutten remains then why is the race for Clarko down to two clubs?

Exactly right. One has to feel for Rutten in this situation. It's absolute shambles, yet nobody is calling Essendon out on it. It's hard to believe really.

Or perhaps you should go and read the 100’s of posts I’ve made detailing exactly why it’s taken until now………….and since when are Essendon looking for a new coach….. I haven’t seen that Rutten has been sacked………..

 

[Rod Stroker]

It would be almost impossible for Rutten to stay on given it's public knowledge they are chasing Clarko. Untenable.

 

[Themanbun]

Just phone it in you reckon? Love it

Nah he's a conscientious bloke who will continue doing his best despite a conniving snake den of a board.

But mental healths and shit

 

[Roosurgence]

She had one. Went soft when she smiled at it.

Beat me to it.

This thread moves so quick that you can’t keep up with what’s been posted. LOL

 

[Rod Stroker]

Ummm it definitely hasn't been well reported.

Examples please.

It was definitely mentioned on Footy Classified for one, but they aren't the only ones.

 

[Bren]

felt sick listening to that old s**tstain talk... GAGF you old campaigner!! Was seriously surprised that you were still alive

 

[Mr Lloyd Christmas]

Or perhaps you are full of sh*t.

I'm backing you each way.

 

[King Hansen]

Essendon are a bigger basket case than we are, so I actually don't feel bad if Clarko goes there and fixes them.

No finals win in 18 years, drugged their players etc trains in Tulla, no priority picks coming, plus they don't have LDU.

 

[KickItAnywhere34]

It was definitely mentioned on Footy Classified for one, but they aren't the only ones.

It was mentioned one day ago…….where is that widely reported……and common knowledge - it’s only reared it’s head after yesterdays shit show..

 

[Sillygit]

So we're up to what, three bombers board meetings now and they still havent fired Rutten?

 

[Le Grille]

Can we finish up and go to the Winchester pls clarko

 

[Themanbun]

Second full day of Rutten's alleged sacking and he's still there, lmao. Really don't think there's anything to be worried about here, other than the mental health of a good bloke who Essendon and the media are determined to screw over.

 

[Themanbun]

So we're up to what, three bombers board meetings now and they still havent fired Rutten?

This.

 

[Orange Peanut]

Truck is going have some long days at the golf course next year…

So... Like Brad Scott, while he was still our coach?
