If Richmond beat Brisbane

[HoneyBadger35]

Alright what about to compromise we fly out the squad as usual, but we have a few fans set up base in Melbourne so that all the lawnmowers are started when the boys arrive there?

 

[Dazzler9]

I heard Masten & Waterman had them fuelled and started before anyone could blink.

Surely Masto uses an electric lawnmower.

Mowers to victoria you say??

Didn't Geelong, or maybe another team, come over here and stay a week earlier this year?
If I recall right it didn't go too well for them.

Yes, that was Geelong. Got beat soundly by the purples. I think Chris Scott ordered some lawnmower training after that.

That's it - there's the edge we need!

Edge? Or edger?

HT doesn't care about edgers, he's here to teach all of these young whipper snippers know how to start a mower.

 

[KERRPOW]

some comedy gold on here.

HT, just out of interest whats your opinion on mental health?

 

[Dazzler9]

Anyways, looking forward to a good game, and just hoping the boys don't wetta-soil themselves.

Why wouldn't we? I mean sailors spend 6 months at sea at a time, arctic expeditions go for months at a time, boarding school kids do 10 week stretches. Surely an AFL football team is identically analogous to the aforementioned situations.

3 1/2 hours on a plane aint no big deal this time of the season . Good for the 14 Fathers to have a little break from kids but not too long . Staying as a group in Melbourne too long you end up hating each other so no to an extended stay over .

Firstly liked by HT, now quoted and rebuked by Boondy.
I think my sarcasm font is broke.

FFS, men in the 12th century went on the Crusades for years at a time. You don't hear any of them complaining. People have become soft in the millennium since.

Treating professional athletes like adults not high school drop outs, what a novel concept by the Friends, Family, Flags club.

They’ve just solved the flights problem with time travel, hard not to be excited by that.

He meant Saturday

 

[The wily weagle]

As much as I think that setting up a base in Melbourne makes sense, there isn't any point in messing with established travel routines at this point

If they are happy enough travelling back and forth from Perth over the next 3 weeks, let them be

All this bullshit about the crusades and people going to sea and war etc.

I get that its probably mostly a joke. But way to lump everyone in the same boat in terms of how they feel/react to being away.

I've got a mate that'd jump at the chance to be away from his wife and kids for a few weeks. Would love the freedom. Me - I'd be done after 5-6 days. Much rather be at home reading bedtime stories and cooking dinner.

Must not. Click. Button.
