Probably a bit hard for CCJ with a ruptured achilles from last week to perform in the Captain's run. Who are these intellectuals?

Happy 21st Ligs. Hope that you have many more birthdays to celebrate. The Roos won the Premiership in the year I turned 21. (Not going to tell you which one.)

Eugene Arocca...what a man!!!

The great Ronald Dale Barassi used to insist that "you are your best coach!"

How does Clarko's action rate compared to this?

Ben Mabon!

Agree. Could have been something but a bad injury (broken leg?) curtailed his career.

Dangerous times working in the back office.

Ouch. Not good. A bit more than 2 weeks? Seriously, hope he gets over it all asap. A mongrel of an injury. Todd was a very talented tennis player (AIS scholarship) before choosing footy.

Yes, me too GK. Not better than any of that. I went to Boxing Day at the G in 1971. Not a Test...Vic v NSW traditional Christmas match...believe it or not!! Match started pre Christmas and a fellow called Robert Rowan knocked over NSW when it resumed. Check out some of the players on the...

My recollection is the same. We must have been standing next to each other!

Imagine the drive to La Trobe when Plenty Road was a goat track and before the Ring Road came into being.

What happens if a bomb is dropped into a bowl of Alphabet soup? It could spell disaster!

Another Shinboner legend. Great man. Loved his Club!!!

Mr and Mrs Furey did in 1946.

He must have incriminating photos. No other explanation.

And talking of players being overrated!!!!

One for the oldies...apologies to anyone under 60. An elf will never drive a Mini Moke because medical authorities warn that moking is an elf hazard.

Yep, heard Andrew Rule was on to the Adams NMFC link a few days ago. What he has written about the NMFC ( highlighted by Kanga Glory) is spot on. We were perilously close to being the Reserves side for Elliott's Carlton. Adams tainted the family legacy at North.

When a man says he will do anything for a woman, he means he will fight bad guys and slay dragons. He doesn't mean he will do the dishes and the vacuuming.

Laughing at your mistakes can lengthen your life. Laughing at your wife's mistakes can shorten it.

Yes, I remember Willie playing the odd game in the Reserves. A bit of hype at the time. Some parallels with Eric Wallace. Interesting to see the old stand and the old, old stand (with the caricatures) that was demolished for the Social Club. Not sure where the blonde fits in overall.

Two Irish men are looking through a catalogue. Paddy says, " Look at these gorgeous women! The prices are reasonable too!" Mick agrees, "I am ordering one of those right now!" Three weeks later, Paddy says to Mick, "Has your woman turned up yet?" "No," says Mick, "but it should be any time now...

All good, I get your humour and laugh along. This time it just triggered the wrong response from me. (Was working in education not far from Colombine when it happened. They were tough times for many.)

Sorry, hit the wrong button! Meant to say, still a bit raw.

Blighty!

I have been 2 or 3 times but not recently due to other factors. Would definitely go again in the future as it is a great occasion. I think it is a money spinner for the club. Hope so. It is also a high profile event for NMFC, given it is the Official occasion for the GF. To no one's surprise it...

PS I gave this a like because Mrs Bertie is from Sunshine. Courting her was one of the bravest things I ever did!

In Geelong's case, being able to pay so little in draft terms for the first round quality father/sons available to them, it effectively gave them another first rounder. Not only did they get Ablett at 40, it meant that they could use their first round pick on... Jimmy Bartel. Hawkins went at 41...
