    Autopsy Round 5, 2021: St.Kilda v Richmond *MADDIE'S MATCH* *CARLISLE 150TH*

    Thank you, every day is a good day...some are better than others I finally found a publisher who will publish the boy's adventure stories I have written so that's a big tick. The books won't be available until after I am gone but it will be my legacy which I can leave for our children. Our son...

    Autopsy Round 5, 2021: St.Kilda v Richmond *MADDIE'S MATCH* *CARLISLE 150TH*

    Dear fellow Saint’s supporters I am 63 years old and I am not going to live to see my 64th birthday* I'm not quite at death's door but I can see him skulking around in the garden. But enough of my problems... I am writing to say I cannot give any more of my time to the club I have loved for such...

    Autopsy Round 1, 2021: GWS v St.Kilda *HIGHMORE DEBUT*

    Point taken I taught for almost 40 years and tried to stay up to date with different things so I could talk to them about the things they liked, some things I didn’t bother with and it was frightening the number of kids who believed something they had seen on t.v or the internet was true (to...

    Autopsy Round 1, 2021: GWS v St.Kilda *HIGHMORE DEBUT*

    I still think it would be funny. It seems to me that a lot of the younger generation need things explained more

    Autopsy Round 1, 2021: GWS v St.Kilda *HIGHMORE DEBUT*

    I think I read nearly all of the posts after the G.W.S. game I suggest posters check out Monty Python's Argument Clinic. If someone says up, you don't have to react by saying down As for the comments about one of the umpires? If it is a bad performance it needs to be called out. Being an old to...

    Discussion 2020 General AFL Discussion

    The link below is a fascinating read. A short summary is talking about the young people today who are not dyed in the wool fans. I liked the comparison between the sporting teams owner’s children. The oldest boy going to college wanted a tv and a subscription while the younger girl wanted a...

    List Mgmt. 2020 Trade Thread - Part III

    ‘someone told me that when he was playing for Collingwood, and treat it with the disdain that gossip deserves, that when a kid asked him to sign his football card he would put his initials on it...unless he was being paid and then he would sign his full name. on another note, 40 years ago I...

    List Mgmt. 2020 Trade Thread - Part III

    Think you nailed it Brains Trust. I know football is a business and players will play for any club that will pay them, but I just think it is a nice touch that some of the players you have are playing for a team they barracked for as a child. Get them into a Grand Final and I think they will...

    List Mgmt. 2020 Trade Thread - Part III

    I have a mate who thinks he knows a bit about the Pies and he told me that Treloar is on a lot of money which they want to get out of paying, his hamstrings are dodgy, wife is in Queensland and he suffers from anxiety. There is also a rumour that he has asked for 3 days each week in Queensland...

    Autopsy Round 18, 2020: St.Kilda v GWS *MARSHALL 50TH*

    Good morning all, I cannot even describe how good I feel today because there are no words. Over the last few years I despaired of seeing my club play finals again so last night's win was massive. The singing of the club song and including all of the support staff, runners, coaches and anyone...

    Preview Round 14, 2020: Melbourne v St.Kilda - TIO Traeger Park, Saturday 29th August, 7:40PM AEST

    My next door neighbour ( a top bloke, despite being a Melbourne supporter) is concreting his driveway before putting bricks on the concrete. With a bit of luck this will have set before he sees it.

    Autopsy Round 8, 2020: Port Adelaide v St.Kilda *MEMBREY 100TH*

    About 20 years ago I did some p.d. about helping boys with anger management issues. The p.d. was called Rock and Water and I used it to help some boys at a school in Melton where I was teaching. A lot of breathing and relaxing the shoulders and taking in deep breaths and thinking about the...
