If it takes $500,000 to shift a game someone should start a go fund me campaign so we can buy a game back to Melbourne. 25,000 people chipping in $20 and it gets done.

There absolutely should’ve been a chance. Unfortunately that chance was tied to Collingwood.

Yeah well, I can't argue that point because I'm a dumb romantic who thinks the father-son thing should stick around

 

[LB2Snake]

I think you are right, that was mostly due to border closures than the club not wanting to meet him

But I’m sure we didn’t even do a heap of zoom calls. Ah well, I, pretty happy with who we’ve ended up with. Callaghan in our midfield would also been pretty elite though

Why do l get the suspicious feeling this is another outside under table brown paper bags cotton on blocks of land feeling……can’t imagine why lm thinking that…

It’s funny because one or both of the Scotts during their Brisbane playing days picked up a job at Bank of QLD. Some things change, some things stay the same.

 

[Gasometer]

We've had awful coaches, awful players, awful onfield leaders, awful administrators, awful recruiting staff, awful conditioning staff.

I think the awfulness is fairly well spread around Arden St. Not sure it's fair to pinpoint any one area of awful.

Awful Membership Dept and awful timeslots

A small part of me respects how brazen they are about the whole thing.

Zero shits given.

Like intervening so the kid isn't eating uber eats for dinner every night for several months...

As long as the Uber Eats isn’t always McDonald’s or Hungry Jack’s, that’s not necessarily a bad thing - is it?

 

[Black Diamond]

Having Uber eats multiple times a week is a sign of lack of life skills, or you work very long hours in the office.

I Just going to assume this was the reason I wasn’t drafted and not my lack of height, skills or pace

That's the irony. I'd happily pay an extra $100 a year to have 4 games back in Melbourne. In fact I'd pay more given I'd pony up for seating as well. I don't think there'd be 25,000 today though. Based on minimum attendances I'd say more around the 15k mark give or take - that's the base we need to build, but I don't see how continuing to devalue that base by parading around the country will ever achieve that.

The AFL need to stop this, what a disgrace.

WTF

A pick in the 60s would actually be low risk-high reward.

It is all well and good to say pick 1 should be this and that, but JHF never had those qualities. That is on us for drafting him.

So JHF says all the right things and we draft him at number one.

And he even sleeps in the North jumper because he loves the club so much.

Then when he gets to the club, he does the exact opposite....

And it's the club's fault?

Are you serious? Do you know what your talking about?

Because based on your logic, it is also the club's fault for drafting TT, when in the end he turned out to be a loose screw, unfit to wear the jumper. Were we supposed to have known that? Did the club not do it's due diligence?
