I gotta change

If you didn't panic then you haven't been hurt enough by this football club

Ben Rutten has not been sacked as the Bombers prepare to make changes to their board.

It’s understood president Paul Brasher will be replaced with David Barham the leading contender.

The Bombers are expected to announce the changes this afternoon.

It’s believed there’s been division among the board since Brasher decided to go public and announce a club review into all football operations in May.

It’s understood chief executive Xavier Campbell didn’t want the public scrutiny associated with announcing a review.

Club officials are shaking their heads at the “debacle” unfolding at the Bombers.

Robbo, I’ve never loved you more if this is correct

Drop the recipe big dog

No actual recipe just years of practice and nailing it but these are the things I do and it works every time.

Uncover pork in fridge overnight and take out of the fridge a couple of hours before cooking.

Pour boiling water over pork and pat dry.

Make sure rind is scored.

Liberally apply salt and olive oil to the skin.

Surround pork with peeled garlic cloves and peeled shallots (or small brown onions) and put half a centimetre of water in the baking dish.

Preheat oven as hot as you can before cooking.

Put pork in and leave on high for 30-60 minutes until the the crackling is done. May need another basting with olive oil/salt. Make sure there is still a little bit of water in the base of the pan.

When crackling is right cover with foil and reduce oven heat to 180C until pork is cooked.

Once cooked pull from oven, remove crackling then stand the meat wrapped in foil for 15 minutes.

Make gravy in the baking dish using the juices in the pan - the flavours from the meat juices, garlic and shallots is superb.

Serve with roast potatoes - my preference is to parboil them with rosemary and then roast in duck fat.

Eat like a king and wash down with a good cab sav.

The amount of new posters this thread has must be a record

Only rivalled by the number of n00bs who sprung up in the wake of “The Main Board 11” debacle.

 

[My Left Foote]

A lot of this going on in this thread today!

Rutten is so dissatisfied with the whole * mess he is thinking about going to North as an assistant under Clarko now.

 

[Passmore]

The general treatment of Rutten in this instance by everyone in the media seems to me to be a new low. It’s like as if he doesn’t even exist in people’s minds, in their headlong rush for something “different”.

Clarkson to * was the media wet dream.

 

[Harris 10]

Quinten Tarantino is writing the screen play as we speak.

His brother from GWS Tim Tarantino will play Clarko..

is this part of the movie Brendan Goddard was talking about?

Fair point I hate loving this club

 

[DesertRoo]

I love to think this actually played out in real time,
* board, boot their Prez because he was the sticking point to Rutten. They tell Rutten to clear out his desk and call Clarko..
after 30 mins of pleasantries, a couple of board members run downstairs to tell Rutten, they were only joking, we never had a chance at Clarko, please stop packing up your desk.

 

[DrZaius]

FG not gonna lie I thought you are 40+, now your using language like someone my age

Getting crossed off the DILF list??

 

[Samsquanch]

Well that's two hours id never want back....

Two hours?

It felt like about 12 hours in a shit storm.

 

[Scallop Industry Thug]

Including you

Yep. Like others I was passing along.

I’m happy to be burnt and be wrong.

FWIW, unsure what is actually known coming out of there.

This is my thought. This isn't a mid season sacking. This is why it's concerning.

Maybe, maybe not,,,,,,not like a new coach is going to coach them in the final round.

Essendon’s season slumped further after a harrowing 84-point loss to Port Adelaide on Sunday.

After announcing a record number of members during the week, Rutten apologised to Essendon fans and members.

“Were bitterly disappointed,” Rutten said.

“It was the sort of game that our members and supporters who came to the game or were watching on TV… it’s not the s

Caro tonight: Well I feel sorry for Rutten and frankly North should be ashamed of themselves for dragging this out with no regard for how it impacts other football people.

 

[Shinboner1]

So barrett was just talking shit for the last 3 hours?

 

[Hojuman]

You can just imagine some flog there puffing himself up: "Hello Alistair, yes, this David Barham, President of the ESEENDON FOOTBALL CLUB ... what .. yes ... I can wait ... what's that, yes a pen and paper ... (scrabbles around on the board table) ... yes, I'm writing it down ... I ... CAN ... JAM ... THE ... JOB ... UP ... MY ... ARSE ... SIDEWAYS ... THE ... DRUG ... CHEATING ... Alistair, are you still there .... (to the rest of the board) ... he's hung up! I'll try again, must have been a bad line!"

Glad l'm currently not on publc transport, l'd be sectioned !
( hoj wipes away tears.... )

 

[Mr_Nyah]

I think we’re all missing the big picture: Pepsi or Coke?

 

[Harris 10]

If Rutten stays it will only be for this week, his position is untenable moving forward.

Top bloke is Matt,
Who is he ?

Shouldn't you be resigning here after your bullshit re KIA?
