Welcome to the candy shop.

We might expect plenty of sweet treats, of many different varieties, to become available for sale ...

Willi Wonker or Candy Man for his nickname?

I prefer Candy Man because he sells it to everyone... then again so does Willi Wonker.

Ah crap just put me on ignore..

 

[Jindrrk]

I'm assuming this is tongue in cheek, but who's Jy's manager?

Im guessing its not Pickers since he's signed. That way he can't be going to Collingwood

 

[DarkPhoenix]

It may seem like we're overstating the whole candy selling thing, but I can't think of a single player in the league who does it more hypnotizingly at the minute. Made Boyd who is a fantastic defender look like an absolute spud.

It's like when you see a soccer player faking out someone in a one on one contest the way he handles the ball, has it on a string.

Fantastic to hear he's signed on til 2020, going to be a real classy player. Gun.

Candy Man.

Hmmm.

Sounds like a Stephen King character or just some horrible pedo.

Personally they are a bit dodge, which incidentally works as well.

Yeah.....Dodge.

This was a post I saw on the North facecrap post on Jy's re-signing.

Not sure if the guy who posted it annoys me more or the 2 people who liked it.

Also sounds like the title of several different songs about drug dealers.

Anyone ever met a good Daryn?

(Apologies to any BF Daryns, Darrens, etc)

No, no, you've got Daryn all wrong - he's reacting to the sighing of Jy when he believes that a new coach should have sighed. I think.

I should of used the "whos the more foolish, the fool or the fool who follows him"

I can't stand these alternative name spelling to be 'cool'. I feel sorry for them as when they get to being an adult or close to one; having to spell their name out or people getting it wrong with official documents etc on simple names like 'Darren' would be so annoying.

Anyway I am totally off topic now.

Glad the kid is happy at the club. North is a very good environment to be at as opposed to some of the big name clubs where the pressure may just get too much and therefore creates bad environments. But maybe that is a good thing as it creates a winning edge/environment, I dont know. I just know I wouldnt like it and a club like North (ie Marley Williams) would be good for him.

Not just a once off either, he has done it almost every game. The blind turns and baulking in the JLT were taking the P155. Does it for fun

 

[Gasometer]

I suggest 'Lid'.
























Keep a lid on it will ya.

Step one--- show form early

Step two- get contract extension

Step three- relax and take it easy.

There are others from the same era - candy man by the Grateful dead is the most obvious.
