Where this elevates from merely a good post to an elite one is the umpiring conspiracy theory about jumper colours

MCC members don't get charged to go to the grand final (except a small booking fee if successful in the ballot). So there is really no percentage for them to keep. The exception is if they release tickets for restricted members on the day. The MCC charges each restricted member whatever the...

MCC members got early access to tickets for the T20 WC from memory. The size of the MCC reserve doesn't change between the prelim and the GF. As AstuteTiger mentions above, people would be better off looking at all the seats that are available to club members / general public in the prelim but...

MCC 22/23 annual report: https://mcc.org.au/_/media/final-mcc-annual-report.pdf

This might be favourite video of all time. The editing on it is next level.

Viney's shoulder pops out at least once a game. If resting him for a week would help with that I'd be all for it but I suspect it wouldn't make a difference and only surgery at the end of the year will fix it.

Does anyone know why there were a couple of bays in the southern stand on level 4 at the Punt Road end that were completely unsold? Also why don't they sell the restricted view seats near the scoreboard on level 4 in the Olympic stand for games like this? May as well put them up for say $20...

Just got home from the game, some quick thoughts: How good is footy, big crowd, top teams, close win, nothing better Had a Pies supporter behind me try to tell me Hunter running through Hoskin-Elliott was a dirty act (wtf) Disappointed the MCC members participated in the Mexican wave, the whole...

The fourth post in the Marlion Pickett arrested thread on the Richmond board:

So the guys who went to LIV made tens of millions with basically no repercussions and will be back on the tour after only a year. I bet a few blokes who stayed with the PGA are kicking themselves now.

Hard to tell much from that. Was Day concussed?
