No, not Warren Gamaliel Harding, although I'm sure we're all going to make that mistake a lot in future! Rob Harding, formerly of the Crows.

Presumably this is the Petyr Baelish of the competition and his basic plan is as...
Manic moves and drowsy dreams, living in the middle between the two extremes
You can predict that the Showdown is unpredictable, except when it isn't
Sacking people is not fun (LN: Surely sacking one such as Leppitsch would be fun? Rangas are awful, low energy opium fiends on the whole)...
As Glenn Ridge might have offered in the past. Today we have facilitated breaking an 118 year old record for our opposition, historically the worst club in the whole competition, in a game that was meant in part to commemorate the 50th anniversary of our 1965 premiership win. As a result we can...
Dunno if the club's done any sort of announcement on this, but it's popped up at the Bomber shop. (Here)
I don't typically go in for sports bios, but am certainly making an exception here.
The non-Essendon thread.
For, believe it or not, topics that do not pertain to Essendon. Hence the non-confusing "General Bombers Talk" label.

Remember: 5-1, with 5 going to the best player. Number your choices thusly, or I will not count them.

Good on him, in all seriousness. And he's from the best of the modern systems, so after all that... can't really argue with the choice.

Surely this deserves a thread without the Port context.
Succession plan announced, Sheedy will coach until the end of the 2013 season, Cameron will take over there.
A very savvy move by Cameron, and sure to be one of the cushier...
Just wondering if there's an index (silly question!) of clubs of origin for premiership players, with ones who had already won a premiership at their old club being noted.
Can name about 6 from Essendon off the top of my head, which doesn't seem like a whole heap.

Interesting stuff! Stay tuned for more Tales of Interest!
I assume that there's nothing to be...
Just watched this on ye olde IQ. Another very well put together doco, and obviously a very painful day for our club.
There are a few things in there that are interesting, the WCE/Coll draw stuffing us up is well known, and my father can vividly remember the fumbly, shambolic training session...
Just because the Non-Essendon thread will get clogged to the shizen, here's a convenient one-stop shop for having a chinwag about another all-important individual award.
Will it be Jobe, the Cotch, the Son of God, Danger Mouse, non-twinkle-toes Josh Kennedy, non-North-defender Scott Thompson...
Back in my day BJ used to stand for something else.
And that something else was Billy Joel.
If you read it on Facebook, heard it from a friend, or saw Josh Caddy playing miniature golf with Henry Slattery, talk about it here. Keep the other thread clean.

Will air on 7 on Sunday after Game Day... I think.
Excellent series, I'd highly recommend it even if a lot of it constitutes odd closeups of old men's noses and mouths. All of them have been pretty compelling thus...

Good on him. More people should do this.
Should have got the Yiooken Award according to most Richmond supporters.

Deserves its own thread because of the awesome picture.
But it's farewell to Windy Hill. Wow.

Apparently Choco is being courted for a development role at the Tiges, and the deal is as good as done.
Interesting stuff.
The ticker on 360 was saying that McVeigh has retired. No official announcement from the club would tend to indicate that was actually meant for tomorrow as part of the advertising for The Hangar.
It'll surprise no one of course, but I guess we wait and see until tomorrow.
I'm surprised that more attention hasn't been paid to the fact that Sydney on the weekend basically lapsed for a 10+ minute period in which the game went from being comfortably in their corner to being a tight contest once more. And not for the first time this year.

I heard Ed last week talking about how the CFC were going to make "the next six weeks" as enjoyable as possible for "Taz"
Just curious as to what sort of activities week 5 and week 6 of that block will entail? Collingwood supporters, help me out here.
