Nah. You were right the 1st time.Not a work of fiction at all, but I did some checking and it appears there might be (more than probably is) a case of mistaken identity.
You’re Bont2Boyd - there is another poster out there called Bonts2Boyd who has been active on the MB more recently. Seems I missed the little s tucked up in the middle of the username.
Mea Culpa
Please accept my apologies.

Same pathetic sad mutt.

He might not be the one IN thought but S'less Bont is just as much a sliver of toejam as their main antagonists.I think you will find that it is as IN said, I know Bont2Boyd , he is as willing as anyone to engage in spirited debate, but isn't a s**t stirring idiot as some similarly named posters could be described.
Fair point.Just an observation I’d like to share and I will probably be howled down by the PC brigade but whatever.
I noticed at the draft that Leon has put on a fairly significant amount of weight.
Now the coach doesn’t play and there are plenty of good coaches the world around that are not in peak condition however for an ex player in his 40’s to let himself go like that I think sends a poor message to the group.
For mine he needs to address this and get himself back racing fit as he will be setting the tone to the group as to what he expects.
For time poor people and blokes with young families it is very easy to put on some kegs and he is not a sumo, but I was just a bit disappointed to see he had not kept himself in good shape.
Ultimately he won’t be chasing down blokes and won’t have to give 2nd efforts but he is the Commander, he sets he standard. If he doesn’t have the self discipline to keep himself in peak condition can he expect his players to do all the right things as well?
It’s not a major thing but it tells you about the person. Is he really committed to make the sacrifices he expects of his men??
Just an observation.

He seems like he’s lamb mk 2 for us

Not really an excuse as there's lots of ways to stay fit but hasn't he had problems with his knees.Just an observation I’d like to share and I will probably be howled down by the PC brigade but whatever.

Canberra teenager Jack Powell spoke to three clubs at the AFL combine last week but the Ainslie premiership player admits he only grew up dreaming of playing for one of them.
The GWS academy midfielder spoke with the Giants, Brisbane Lions and Collingwood Magpies who Powell has supported his entire life.
The Magpies hold a special place in Powell's heart - the Belconnen Magpies were his first team in Canberra - but the 18-year-old said it would be a dream come true to get drafted anywhere.
"Dad is a mad-keen Collingwood fan so I support them too, he'd be stoked if I went there and they'd be my preference but anywhere would be awesome," Powell said.
Only just saw this but its Jack Powell pre-draft which maybe sheds some light on things.

I think every players dream would be to go to a club they grew up supporting this is nothing new.Well recent history would suggest that these Canberra lads are pretty keen to move down to Melbourne and experience life in the footy bubble as soon as they can.
Speaking as an impartial lurker, I'd say you guys can't afford to abuse and alienate potential new posters - which you do a lot. You seem to have a culture of suspicion and hostility to anyone outside your own VERY tight knit community which you could fit in a phone box. GWS has the smallest Bigfooty community of all the 18 clubs. Pretty obvious why. Just saying.No, not anyone, just you.
