The bolded player is a Pies supporter too.

Yep. His whole extended family is!

 

[Doc1763]

Short answer - NO!!
Long answer - EFFING NO!!

 

[Apex36]

No, piss off SEN.

 

[BEEG]

That was a waste of a read.

Had my hopes up some news broke about a player we are chasing.

 

[jmac70]

Thought he was going to North Melbourne?

Does anyone willingly go to North?

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

Thought he was going to North Melbourne?

It's just a journo putting out his own thoughts. They hate us, hence why they're trying to push all these old age duds onto us.

 

[Lifelong Pie]

No

My great uncle used to have 6 beers before the game, and then used to get the trainers to bring some to him at HT. Used to put his footy gear under his casual clothes, as he would be coming straight from the pub to the game.

Who was that for? Yarragon?

 

[Jen2310]

Who was that for? Yarragon?

South Melbourne.
Played in the 1945 grand final. Otherwise known as the Blood Bath. They held it at princes park, as because of post war stuff they couldn't use the MCG

 

[sr36]

i agree entirely SR. Hopefully with the redistribution of graham wright's salary into recruiting, we'll see derek get a pay rise...

If rumours of him finishing soon are true and glib is the only criteria, you could apply for the gig.

 

[sr36]

What would Ginnivan be worth these days on the open market? A post on the main board for top 40 players under 24 has him listed. We have the one and only Nick D at number 1. Nothing else

Love him or hate him he can play. Pretty annoying we gave him away for free to a side that’s getting stronger.

I'd have McCreery rated higher as an under 23 - but htink Ginni without baggage should be worth a pick in the second round. I thik he'll have a solid career.

 

[Mick F]

There would be players staying at home and getting on the piss the day before a final. they don't have to get blind drunk but they drink. I just don't see the big deal if he goes to the pub to unwind before a big final.

As FD tell you. It goes from Mick having a counter meal with his GF having a few squashes, to Mick being at the pub drinking, to Mick being drunk, to Mick being locked up. If you lose it becomes: “no wonder, half the team were on the grog last night, got released from gaol just hours before the game.”

Nor what sponsors or volunteers want to hear.

 

[Mick F]

I might be the only one on here that really really doesn’t want that to happen

28. That is a no.

The only time Jack Dyer got suspended was for striking Jock Jr who had attended a wedding before the game(against his father’s instructions) and, as was the way in those days, had to fast before the sacrament. A few beers were had on an empty stomach then off to the footy.

Dyer said he won the fight but left out the fact that both players copped 4 weeks.

McHale Jr maintained that Dyer’s later dementia was proof of who hit harder.

This is an absolute monty to evolve into news that sources close to both clubs have said that Collingwood and Melbourne are both chasing Darling's signature on a 4 year deal by the time we get to AFL trade radio, after probably having passed back and forth through Ralphy's and Little Tommy Morris' hands a few times first.

we could job share SR... just the mention of your name will entice young footballers to gravitate to the club... I can take care of the wheelchair brigade...

 

[BEEG]

The whole Collingwood desperately need a key position forward is rubbish.

Would it be nice, absolutely.

I'm not sure we have played 1 game with Checkers, Mcstay, Elliott, McCreery, Schultz and Hill all in the same team.

Pies need a defender to help Moore not be exposed every week.

That's our biggest need.

it's a playing coaching role.... he will oversea the younger players's education into how to stiff the club and how to freeze in the goal square and drop easy marks

 

[Eric Shin]

I'd rather bring in Taberner

That's our bugged need.

I would like to draft an 18yo key forward to be ready post McStsy and Checkers
In terms of trade targets , a mid like Peatling and Davies plus a tall defender

I think it's runners.

Sidey has gotten too old for the wing (was excellent in a run with role in the midifeld at the end). WHE was needed up forward. Markov was off with the fairies. Crisp and Pendles were needed full time in the midfield. It left us with Bytel playing wing and guys like Sullivan and finn playing flanks.Plus Lippa and IQ were out of form for patches and Noble has some shockers. That was our weakness this year, defending and attacking the outside.

Nice to see we are the only idiots paying a Mill for a defender.

What. The. Actual.

 

[Apex36]

What. The. Actual.

His deal was heavily front loaded, he’ll be earning less than half that at the end of his deal. (Still never deserved a contract that big in the first place tho)
