Speaking of people putting Malthouse on a pedestal .....

We may be replacing a Riley with a Wiley.

The club has already taken photos of Mick (Malthouse is in the middle) and his coaching group....

Mick is a great war and history buff.

I think much of the conjecture that we'll trade ruckman is off.

Mick would understand the value of a good ruckman after coaching several teams without them and trading big in the past to get them (Wood, Jolly). I reckon under Mick all three of Hampson, Warnock and Kreuzer (hahahaah as if he'd ever be traded) stay.

Crane6 and molly are a few people that actually know what's goin on.

Interesting to see what player roles will differ.

Some thoughts:
-Henderson? Probably stay CHB..
-Yarran? Is it time for the midfield?
-garlett? More time up the ground around the contest?
-gibbs? Surely a midfielder now
-armfield? I loved him as defensive half forward. Could take the small defender role again?

He might see Levi as being better than Wood and so think 3/4 is enough.
As far as K being untouchable - you are probably right BUT as a pure ruckman I don't see him as any better than the other two (even after he did a couple of his best boundary taps the other week). I have always been a hard taskmaster and I have to say I want a big season from K (I am considering form only, bad luck about injuries) - I want to be able to say our pick 1 ruck is as good as the Weagles pick 1 ruck
I see K as a better mark than his stats suggest and we need to be utilizing this around the ground

Stop taking the "Micky" out of us.

What? .................................Where are you CP? Miss you.

hbf (newbie) should be mentioned amid that grouping and a couple of others that really know their stuff, but may not care to be mentioned here. (Not 40YB )

......and whatever happened to Parrot?????? He/she/it was the most positive of all.

Parrot is more thank likely hibernating but I am sure will make an appearance before Rnd 1.

Three of the actors in that picture are still alive.

Guess which ones.

(Just for something to do).

Really think he needs to stay back, think he is much better suited back than up forward. Will never be a gorilla pack marking CHF who can dominate a space like a Brown, Riewoldt, Cloke

Surely it could only be the second left, the Warden and the guy on the right... Or not...? It's a trap!

It's a trap!

You got two out of three. Second from left (Ian Lavender - Pike) and the Warden (Bill Pertwee) are still alive.

The third who is still with us is "Mick Malthouse", the grey haired guy in the middle (Clive Dunn - Cpl Jones - "don't panic, don't panic"). He is into his 90s now.

The actor on the far right, James Beck (Walker), actually died suddenly during the course of the show. He was only in his mid 40s.

Haha excellent stuff
Knew it couldn't be that easy
