Great recognition for a great player. Too soon?
I dunno maybe I am just becoming an old fart.
Alternatives? Well you've got me there.
Wadey? Sam - not now!
Sydney CEO!!
GFC CEO??
His brother????
Thoughts?
Gday all
I have been thinking for a while about why and how we have crashed a fair bit this year, and what and who and have contributed.
So I did my own ranking out of 10 for each player YTD below. It is highly subjective and many will disagree, but I thought it might open up some interesting...

Did not want to start a massive OT discussion. Damo's thoughts on Pies and us.
Pretty fair effort in a test against India. 10-119 in the innings IIRC. Kohli a big zip was nice.
Must have nerves of steel to steady the hand after getting number nine.
As you may or may not know Tom Atkins' total clone is here in TENNANT CREEK where I am for a few months, and he is working in the bottle shop which of course I frequent. He and I have been celebrating Tom's great year most weeks, and I want to recognise it here for how bloody good he has been...
Hi all. My daughter's new house burnt down NY morning in Monbulk. She lost everything including her wonderful man, and now is left with her two-week old baby boy. We are of course stunned and I cannot imagine how she is feeling.
Everyone is doing all they can and friends have setup gofundme...
2020 is nearly gone thank heavens.
And we nearly got it done in the big one this year, but in the end we could not go the distance. However things are looking good post trade and we are on the up.
Enough of the catchcries - have a great NY whoever you are doing it with. Let's enjoy a great...
25 years today since Ted's last lap. Belongs on this page cos he was such an integral part of the Cats via 3GL/K-Rock. He had me absolutely pissing myself at times. He was so close to the edge all the time. Met him once and was a true legend of a guy. RIP
Seriously this board has degenerated into too much spiteful name calling. You bunch of useless tossers. I would dearly love to see some civility maintained amongst our own and leave the pot shots to the supporters of, for example, the Dawks, Ninth mond, the Aints, the Wiggles, West Sydney and...
Members need to get a copy of the constitution to see how they can hold the Board to account. Members will be able to get a petition up, but there will likely be a number or % of members required for any action by the Board.
But even if there was only a few hundred or even 1000 members signing...
Seriously.
I have had some shitty times and good times in my life. I have lost a marriage, and I have nursed a friend while he died from a tumour. Dragging his 6'2" 110 kg rock hard body off the deck a number of times. I have run successful businesses and a couple that have hit the wall...
Buddha. Great player, tough, and got the most out of himself always. I went to his last game, my last at the ground (so far).
I checked out the Club's website to see today's photo of him holding his recently received legend medal. He looks sad not celebratory. He looks like he is apologetic...
I admit I am won. I carnt help it if I prefer good spelling then bad spelling. Bad grammar also does my head in.
So to keep me and other like minded people off other peoples backs on other more important threads lets go at it here. This is in response to some comments on the Mods Have Your Say...
Been meaning to do this for a while. Would be really interested in contributions to player nicknames. I know a few but not all. So can we please create a definitive list so that when we are talking bull, we are talking Caddy? (please move if not right spot). Other team's supporters not welcome...
Highest winning % of any team for 200 consecutive games ever. And that's including before the 2007 run began.
I'm getting sick of this sustained brilliance.
Just reading something by Joel and was I thinking about who is next in line. He's still got some great years ahead, but the clock is always ticking. A bit of succession planning.
Would he step aside in say 3-4 years and give someone else the mantle?
Interested in others thoughts.
Good morning
Feeling contemplative after having attended a small ceremony in regional Vic yesterday.
With all the pros and cons, ups and downs, rivalries and politicking that goes on relentlessly I would like to reflect on how and why we are here. Nearly 100 years and aside from the usual...
Just listed. What do you think - fair, not fair?
I don't know some of them TBH many, but I'm glad to see Mitch and Mots and local boy Jack Steven in there.
Edit: Mitch stiff I reckon.
The Curse hits wiki-world. Who'd of thunk it?

But more importantly will the truth behind the so-called "pact" hit wikileaks?
Not sure if this has been posted but saw in the Hun today that Wojo did his other knee on the weekend (similar to the twist Menzel did) and the playing career is all over for him. The boots have now found their hanger.
Compliments to a great servant of the Club, an inspiring game breaker, and...
Hi guys and gals and ... well, yeah.
I watched the 07 flag on the weekend to remind myself where it all started, and I was away on work and bored.
Great to watch and see just how good they were, and I forgot how awful PP were as well.
What I kept thinking was how would the 2013 team go...
Insert your own word in the title. I am so proud of the boys and so glad to be a part of it.
To think I swapped from Melbourne to the Cats all those years ago cos my parents followed Geelong and I figured that was the only way I would get to a game. Oh how different it might have been.
