Players around the comp know they're going nowhere under Bard

And no one wants their players they are trying to offload

It’s a cesspit there

They have been touched by the hand of Brad.







I can foresee a class action from ex-North Melbourne and * players in the near future, with the claim lodged for the ruination of their careers.

Imagine you've been training out place called mineral resources park, two minute drive to the stadium, five minute drive from the cbd/swan river, world class beaches 30 mins away.
Then to then be told you're now touring for one of the richest clubs in the afl and driven out the back of Tullamarine, you'd be looking for the cameras thinking you were punk'ed

Bit of advice - if you're gonna cook it first then use a strong cast iron pot and hide behind a brick wall while its cooking.

It's not a parody?

[Summary for those too lazy]

Top ten reasons to be positive:

1. A finished top ten in the B&F!
2. B finished top ten in the B&F!
3. C finished top ten in the B&F!
4. D finished top ten in the B&F!
5. E finished top ten in the B&F!
6. They are very annoyed at losing so much.
7. They play in big games
8. Someone won the B&F last year.
9. Jake Stringer
10. Brad Scott is a coach. He "stands for no BS". [Without irony that BS actually stands for Brad Scott.]

To be fair it's not every year you have players finish in the top ten of your B&F, get annoyed at losing, have crowds, retain a serial nincompoop and are blessed with an ironically initialed coach.

They could have added:

11. James Hird
12. They are one of only two teams to have winners of the Anzac Day Medal
13. They haven't lost after the first week of the finals in 20 years.
14. They will make a movie about them when they win a premiership.
15. Kevin Sheedy

place called mineral resources park,

Workers who leave the head office to buy a cup of coffee are costing an Australian mining firm too much money, according to its boss.

Managing director of Mineral Resources Chris Ellison said during a financial results presentation on Wednesday he wants to "hold staff captive all day long".

"I don't want them leaving the building," he said.

well it worked for that banglideshi sweat shop, until it burnt down and killed a heap of the workers.

At least 52 young workers perish in Bangladesh factory fire

Victims’ bodies were burnt beyond recognition in the latest industrial inferno in Bangladesh, caused by sweatshop conditions.

Said this before on here, but he was a massive jerk when I met him at a Bintangs Grand Final party in Jakarta a few years back. I was sat at the VIP table between him and Chad Fletcher, had a good chat with both of them prior to a question and answer session which Ricky then proceeded to hijack. Initially the two were on stage with a mate who was MC, sat between them asking them individual questions about their careers and retiring in Bali. Then, after answering a question, Ricky turned the tables and started asking Chad about why the drugs were so bad at West Coast, why he didn't do anything to stop it, why he had had little contact with his team mates since retirement and specifically Cousins and that he should have done more to help. Chad was clearly not expecting it and was visibly pissed off. After the Q&A Chad sat back down next to me and I looked at him and raised my eybrows and said "huh"!... He shook his head and muttered "what a ****ing arseh*le". he wasn't in a mood for chatting much after that.

So does their matchday experience.

Bloody hell. The screen at the game was tiny and laggy. There were evidently only two gates, both with huge lines to get in to the ground. And not many food options
