Thoughts on this clash jumper I designed? Not a fan of our current white clash and was wondering how a blue clash would look. Unfortunately I couldn't add the Lion below the Chevron like I wanted but otherwise this was the look I was going for.

Not bad at all. Would look better with an FFC monogram there as well Plenty of room.

This is a beautiful philosophy for recruitment, and I can see parallels to how our current coaching and recruitment staff operate.

Huh? Been out of the loop. Link.

 

[MacMum]

He's been found and is ok.

 

[trikster]

Huh? Been out of the loop. Link.

He posted on IG about his frustration with divorce/access to kids, the system etc. Read very much like a potential suicide note hence a lot of genuine concern at the time. Police were even looking for him to do a safety check.

Thought you guys would be vaguely interested in this. I created an Academy Best 22 team featuring players drafted in the Northern Academy system

B: Cumming, C.Graham, M.Kennedy
HB: Mills, Andrews, Perryman
C: Green, Finlayson, Setterfield
HF: Himmelberg, Blakey, Heeney
F: Hipwood, Keays, K.Coleman
FOLL: Briggs, Steele, Hopper
I/C: Bowes, Scheer, McFadyen, B.Scott

I must admit I was getting pretty desperate towards the end there in terms of fitting players into positions. There were not huge options for the ruck or full-back positions.

Payne won’t be far away.

 

[RUNVS]

Payne won’t be far away.

For some reason he wasn't even marked as an academy player on the footywire website. As a result I completely missed him.

Payne has at least debuted for starters.

above Briggs for the same reason.

Swap Finlayson and Heeney too.

Zac Williams another obvious miss.

This was posted in a thread on the main board, I have probably seen it before but I can't recall it, thought it was worth a post on our board.

Wasn’t that the leadership group for one of the seasons, cannot remember which

Was Aker in the leadership group?

 

[ZoBlitz]

All Australian pic from 2002, I'd guess?

 

[Monkey Daniel]

Come to think of it, no he wasn’t

 

[Paul Mac]

was just having a look over at some of the posts from THAT Richmond game at the G round 4 from 2018." Club should be folded, nothing happening at this club and completely going backwards," basically our club was a complete dogs breakfast supposively. Amazing how things can change and turned around so quickly within roughly 15 months. Quite staggering where we were on that day to now.

's hair? I saw it on FoxFooty twitter, but it was apparently on LNeales twitter/instagram?

He should've gone to MRobbo's barber shop! He will need to go bald.

Bit different than my own look... I was overdue for a cut when I locked down and now... well, based on how well the govt here is handling it I'll be looking like Cousin Itt by the time I next get shorn. Been 15 months now

“Taxi Driver”?

 

[brizrider]

Saw this the other day. I'm sure I remember the Sunday Mail making a big deal about having the first ever colour edition newspaper in Brisbane sometime in the late 80's. Fair way behind Melbourne newspapers if so

Good luck to you in your lockdown over there....hoping to be out of here in the next couple of weeks. Our shops are now open but still can't go past 25klm or get out of Melb.....as we learnt to say, stay safe!

...now about that haircut of Hugh's.....did you see the back? omg, but I did laugh. I think Lachie had better stick to football. A barber he ain't!

Boys having fun!

Rayner has signed to 2023

I wonder if he was any relation to Paul Broderick? Was spewing when he got traded to the tiges.
