Took another photo of Matt Broadbent last night.

hope he was smoking 2 darts this time

 

[Schulzenfest]

Don't care if he's smoking a pack a day as long as he keeps playing like he did this year.

Watching Port v Ess on Fox Footy at the moment. Can definitely see huge potential in Redden and Lobbe as a ruck tandem. Both have great natural forward instincts and Lobbe isn't actually too bad in the ruck when he gets a leap at it. He looks bigger over this offseason so could see big improvement from both players next year.

Oh and Broady for b & f next year. I think k he may be our classiest mid at the moment (well probably Hartlett, but let's have a full season first).

And finally, I finally figured out who Travis Boak reminds me of. Brad Sewell. And that's a compliment. Really rate Sewell.

He's classier than Sewell, not as hard or consistent.

I see more of Scott West, although that could be purely down to his running style.

You need a Wog Boy Family Christmas Special like the Osmonds used to do to turn that frown upside down.

I've worked how it would go.

Late on Xmas Eve, Santa is stopping at Kouta's Souvlaki Hut for a snack but gets crook when he tries to eat the Mt. (Greek Mountain) special after the Wogboy challenges him. Now its up to the Wogboy to deliver presents across the world while Santa blows at both ends back in Melbourne (sounds of shitting and puking while Silent Night plays in Souva hut). He is helped out by Santa's smoking hot Greek* daughter who falls in love with him despite herself for no apparent reason. The day is saved.

*Santa is obviously Greek with that beard but he went to Germany for the euro.

Hey you stats gurus - where do I find a site that can tell me how many goals were conceded by specific players - in this case our own Bobby? I want to do a comparison between him and a few other FBs.

 

[finbarr]

MCG = Good football stadium, shit cricket ground.

 

[Natman]

Bobby conceded 47, which was third in the AFL. I don't know where you can find a full list, but Phil Davis conceded 52 and Alex Rance conceded 48. http://www.afl.com.au/news/2012-09-07/davis-seeks-help-after-winning-reverse-coleman.default?

Thanks gopower - a nice little added info in that article on Hombsch.

There is definitely a script there. I'm not overly familiar with the Wog Boy oeuvre but believe there could could be a spot for Effie perhaps as the sassy Queen of the Elves ... Elfie?

My old man told me a story I'd not heard before yesterday, or maybe blocked from my memory.

He was the juniour football president in Broken Hill for a long time, and as such was responsible for bring up AFL players for functions and that (don't ask him about Tony Lockett...)

Anyway, he had Brendan Lade up one year, I think during one of his knee reconstructions so he wasn't playing, and he came home and got me out of bed to go and meet him. So, a 10 or so year old edgie, brimming with anticipation, is taken to meet one of his "Port Power" champions as my dad put it.

So what gems and insightful discussions do I have for one of the best ruckmen of his era???

"Are you as big as Mathew Primus???"
