The Premiership Cup should always be known as the Premiership Cup

Also, with the current day of people being offended. How long until a story comes out and people get offended.

There's something I really like about it just being a premiership without a dedication.

Also, with the current day of people being offended. How long until a story comes out and people get offended.

My mum was in the airforce, and he did a tour of her base one year. She said he treated her like trash. She's thick skinned so laughs at him being "a dirty, drunk p#$%^" but how long until a story comes out that isn't laughed off?

Yes, I have a shocker of a story about him too.

My dad was at a market chatting to a friend who owned a stall, his friend had to leave for a while so asked if dad would mind it. Barassi approached and asked if he could have one of the items at the stall, for free. It wasn't my father's decision to make so he said "The price is on the item" Barassi said "Do you have any idea who I am?"
My father replied that he knew who he was, and still had to charge him for the item. One thing led to another and Barassi took a swipe at him across the table.

is the new head coach of Richmond.

No Gunston for Brisbane's prelim
Am hoping the big fella can do a Smithy and win the Normie if they get through.

Assuming Lions win the Prelim only way Gunna plays GF is if there is an injury to one of the tall forwards. When was the last game he played?

 

[Suntory Boss Coffee]

Yze now a senior coach.

Weren't the club pretty happy to see him go?

 

[Off The Couch]

 

[The Golden Glenferrie]

Wonder if a few others will head to punt rd!

 

[cs61]

Always seemed like quality person when with us. Little surprised he has ended up as a senior coach, seemed very chilled and didnt know he had the drive or intensity to do the senior job. Hope he does well.

He played in early / mid August. Hurt a knee but was available for selection for the prelim.

Lions fans (and maybe coaches it seems) prefer the fwd structure without him, mainly as it allows Rayner to play the Gunston roaming role.

 

[peetoo]

Such a weird take - fancy preferring just playing finals rather than winning premierships

View attachment 1806898

Shouldn’t that be

Play grand finals 7 years in a row winning 4

OR

Play 5 grand finals in 8 years, win 4, three in a row, but miss the other years?

 

[peetoo]

I red the tigers are after the big hawk too?

Copy (big) cats. Not the first time

 

[The Chad and I]

Just read an article quoting Dermie saying Hawthorn recognised Yze as a tactical genius and he's as good as the game has seen on that count. I had no idea that was the case.


Good luck to him.

Will struggle to play another AFL game

 

[Ned Ryerson]

Happy for Yze - got so many knock backs for head coaching jobs over the years he must be stoked to finally get the chance.

I think Dermie speaks hyperbole more fluently than English these days.

Have you heard him on crunch time? Hodge can't stand it

May retire if body is shot.

You forgot playing 8 grand finals in 9 years winning 5 of them. (83-91) -90


Also playing in 18 finals campaigns in 21 years, playing in 10 grand finals and winning 7 (74-94)
Also playing in 19 finals campaigns in 24 years, plahing in 11 grand finals and winning 8 (71-94)
Also playing in 13 finals campaigns in a row. (82-94)

 

[Brishawk]

His body is ok (assuming recovered from injury). I think its a case of if it aint broke dont fix it. They played so well without him and raynor tends to have less impact with gunston in the side. Would have been a tough decision though.
