Didn't want to start a new thread, don't know if it goes here but ill just put it here anyway. Got my membership renewal mail today and there were some interesting changes.

Please, someone enlighten me, HAVE WE ALWAYS HAD PET MEMBERSHIPS????? Have i missed this previous years? WTF is with that... I have heard of it at other clubs but i honestly think it is the, single most stupid thing i have ever heard from an AFL club. Are we running low on cash because they are also asking for a 125 year donation of $25... What is going on....

Apart from that the 2017 cap and polo look great i think. The polo has the new logo and the cap is white with an old-school emblem on it. I like. The members scarf will now also have a large crest showing how many years you've been a member. A nice marketing touch i think.

I think they're catering to those crazy supporters who want to sign up the whole family, including the pet!
There's obviously a call for it:)

My dog is so traumatised by what it heard rugby league players do to canines that it won't watch any sport. Cat is too busy killing cockroaches.
At least you've survived the return of your wife
At least I assume you have:)
 
Okay, just a bit of respite from trading...
Was in Sydney Road Moreland/Coburg (No.783) this morning and found this huge shoe shop, amazing bargains, leather and synthetic dress shows, kids school shoes, track shoes, infants and kids.

Bargains galore, some shop soiled $3 but quite a few, $10, $15, $20. Some of course more expensive $50 - $150. Brands include Hush Puppies, Dunlop, other brands not sure as I am not big into brands but look like very good quality.

Picked up a pair of casual shoes, leather upper and inner for $10.00

I had to go to a funeral last week. Left all my black work shoes at work (I cycle a lot....i dont just catch the train in my socks...!!) and my wife was about to murder me for wearing brown casual shoes with my suit. En route with not much time up my sleeve I bought a new pair of shoes. I swear I was in and out in three minutes with a new pair of business shoes. Thats how to shop like a man.

Men don't have as much choice it is either lace up, slip on and that's it.:p
We have skinny heels, flat heels, open toed, closed toe, mesh, etc etc and don't start me on colours.

IF I may speak on behalf of Timmy to our younger male posters:

Timmy's post might not look like an exemplar of manliness. But he is still married. And alive. Live in our shoes before you judge.

Seems from website

Larry sabato runs?

If so, he is by far the best call it as it is pundit.

Essentially it's over bar the voting.

Caveat: if people don't traditionally decide this time to vote as an exception
