When the famine comes. You'll be the first to be eaten I would've thought...
 
I saw Oleg Markov at a grocery store in Los Angeles yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.

He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”

I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Rising Star Nominations in his hands without paying.

The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.

When she took one of the nominations and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each nomination and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

She then got all the nominations and placed them in Josh Dunkley's bag.

Really!!!! well i wish they would show it by their actions and what they say.If they say one thing then do another they deserve potting because it really does show they are either lying or making it up as they go.

Anyway it is not hard to fathom. They said they went and got Yarran to solve the run of half back problems we supposedly had. Apparently there was no one else on the list capable of or could be developed to perform the role and you swallowed it hook line and sinker well done bud.

yet we had Deledio and a kid in Menadue who fit the bill to a tee. They also showed how easy it is to find blokes who can run of hb by taking Markov with a pick in the 50"s and we had McIntosh who lo and behold has ended up in defense.

Yeah they really showed what they are about ignoring Big inside mids and kpps in the nd in fact were prepared to give up two really good second round picks to find a poxy inconsistent soft hbf while ignoring these critical areas.

Give me the job i could do it better with my eyes closed and zero contact with any of them thats how piss poor they have been.If they know more why are we languishing near the bottom of the ladder after 7 YRS OF REBUILD LOL. But hey lets not question their credentialls lets just pretend they have been fantastic..

  • Deledio can't play full games off half back any more imo.... not long term and he is more value finishing off work down forward or delivering into the 50 himself.
  • I think Menadue looks far better on a wing, rather than off half back.
  • Same could be said of McIntosh (he was far more effective in 2015 on a wing than earlier this season off hb)
  • Getting Yarran to help take the reliance off Houli was a good idea on paper (some greater scrutiny into his mental state and physical fitness might have helped) rather than relying on a pick in the 50's to do the job.
  • Markov may not have been found without injuries this year, nor would Short having a job back there.

Agree we need big inside mids and kpp though. However by finding more hbf as we have done from within our list, it should allow a ready-made big inside mid to actually play there from 2017 (Vlas). Definitely agree we need to draft/trade for more of these guys though (but skilled guys as well, not Moore/Townsend type spuds).

Who was this story originally about? I've read it so many times on here.... I love it. One of my favourite tall tales.... just wonder if it has an actual origin?

True. Jack Dyer and KB are turning in their grave thinking of Sheds pissy little girl socks.
