Hi Dapto. Don't know if you were taking the piss and being sarcastic with this question but if it was genuine the'comedy' was that the original thread title was 'Jeff Kennett dumbstruck' and Mantis changed it to 'Jeff Kennett dumb'.

Cheers

Yeah i'd love a president that sends his team to another state to play home games.

Gee where can i get one of those.

 

[Karl Pilkington]

Spot on, fat ____ing chance of his team smashing anything for quite some time.
His team's supporters, well that's another story; plenty of chances for them to smash things. The windows at Punt road havent copped a caning for a while. The Tan Wallets car has remained dintless for some time now. Plenty of things for those ferils to smash.

Don't forget their wives faces.

You havent heard anything from him because he is overseas working with BEyond Blue.

Jeff's just a typical Scotch college bully, never showed any ticker at all, and never won a fight in his life.

Yeah him and Junior boy are such bullys. How do you think Cyrealioli learnt to tackle like he does?

 

[Karl Pilkington]

We always called Scotch boys 'Scotchy ****' when we were at school - I didn't know they had a rep as bullies as well.

You were an imaginitive youngster. And hell I didn't even go to Scotch and hate it just as much as everyone else but come on.

Got that TCB, just a gentle jibe as F.Rover got in before me.

Good to you see you around and about TC.

Common misconception.

Hawthorn were already playing 4 'interstate' home games before he was elected President. In fact, the Hawks only played 6 games (5 home) at the MCG in 2006.

Nothing Kennett has done so far has been original at all, he's just riding the coat tails and getting some headlines

I'd rather us play in Lonnie than Dubai. How long is it going to be before Eddie wants to play a game over there for points? You know, gotta keep the sponsors happy!

Cheers to you Dapto. We need you around here a bit more.

I had to go to bat for Lloyd the other day when some dummies were paying out on him and could have used some of your wit to put them in their places.

On the subject of your team, get them back winning. It is against the natural order for them to be in the parlous state they are in.

I want them in good form and not to have any excuses when the Blues towel them up next time they meet.

 

[strategy]

take off the word " struck " from dumbstruck and you have him in one .

So Jeffo's back and the Hawk's cack themselves once again against the mighty Shinboners. Some things never change do they

How do we know he was back? http://www.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/sport/afl/story/0,27009,23901773-5016140,00.html

• DEAN Laidley has told Jeff Kennett to mind his own business after he slammed the club's decision to play Nathan Thompson.

Thompson took to the field nine days after having keyhole surgery on his left knee.
He made it through unscathed, but before the game Kennett criticised the selection as a potential health risk.
"Something concerns me and it's got nothing to do with the outcome of today's game - Nathan Thompson's named to play today only a week since he's had surgery on his knee. You can't be serious," he said on Triple M.
"And I've said to our guys, whatever you do, for goodness sake, always err on the side of caution.
"Don't push them. Give them another week off, give them two weeks off. So Crawf's out for another week and Croady is too.
"When I heard that Nathan, whom I respect very much, and as you know I work very closely with him, he's an ambassador for Beyond Blue, so I think highly of him.
"When I think that he's had keyhole surgery and now he's playing again a week later it just sends shudders down my back."



Responding to Kennett, North chairman James Brayshaw said he would not question the call of his medical staff.
"They're among the best in the competition, so when they say he's ready to go, then he's ready to go," Brayshaw said.
Laidley backed his medical and coaching staff, saying Thompson trained well enough on Thursday to convince them he was 100 per cent.
"(Kennett) probably should mind his own business," Laidley said.
"Thommo was very good. Last Sunday he wanted to play and we changed his training days to give him that opportunity.
"He went and saw the surgeon early on Monday morning and got the tick."
Thompson said he had a "spit and polish" on the knee and it had pulled up well following his contribution of one goal and 10 possessions.
"I've got full faith in our doctors and I wouldn't play even if it was 99 per cent," he said.
"I made sure I put the hard work in and made sure I was right to play.
"The surgeon, David Young, was able to use the smallest arthroscope he could and really small tools, so he barely touched anything.
"He actually said the night after he did it that I'd be back for the Hawthorn game.
"I think the coaches weren't as confident and the doctors were a bit iffy, but once they saw me train on Thursday they thought, 'why not'."
Thompson was thrilled to be part of the 27-point win only a week after the side was humiliated by Fremantle.
Laidley said the next match against St Kilda on the Gold Coast would make or break the season.
"When you attack the opposition and the ball like that there's not too many games you're going to be out of it," he said.
"We're playing St Kilda and probably whoever loses it's probably the end of their year."
Hawthorn lost only its second match and second final quarter of the season, with coach Alastair Clarkson full of praise for the opposition.
"I thought the Kangaroos controlled the game from the outset and we were trying as much as we could to stay in the contest," he said.

Onya Jeffo

LOL!

Jeff Kennett, the AFL's own Grand Master Surgeon and all-round medical expert.

Good on Laidley for telling Jeff where to stick his opinion. Not that it's worked in the past. Jeff seems to think other clubs are just queuing up to hear his opinion on their circumstances.
