My liver... in the celebrations! Another testing question... would you (honestly) take one flag in the next 5 years or two in the following 5?? ...or how bout three in !0-15 years??? The heart says 1 in the next 5 years. The head and common sense says 3 in 10-15 years time. Can I have both the hear...

I liked it at first, but the alternatives come up with since then are far superior, even the acid wash apron. This jumper, like Carltons MnM monstrosity and Footscrays early '30s striped jumper, will never be forgotten in the annals of bad fashion jumpers. I think our "acid wash apron" wa...

Great version too, I remember reading that all the old songs were recoded in an afternoon by the same men's choir (who were paid a pittance), and they're probably all dead now so who would sing the new one?! Mike Brady?!! Spare us. The Mighty Fable Singers! And that wonderful flipside on the single...

Aint broke, dont fix. Now if you wanna talk about our national anthem.... Most of the theme songs have some pretty absurd lyrics when you think about it (ours is mercifully brief and succinct), but this is also their great charm and part of the charm of our unique game, I miss the ridiculous way goa...

Sorry Huzzard, I'm not saying it wasn't a foolish thing to do, of course it was (though he may get some conceited joy in having them know he's coming for them). I just think it's believable that he would have that conversation in a cafe, perhaps forgetting where he is, or thinking no one was listeni...

He's far from stupid, just breathtakingly arrogant (and a little unlucky about who overheard), and it's not like he's the head of ASIO spilling national secrets. It happens. Crikey are reputable and backing this... has there been any serious threat of legal action? Let's see if things like this stad...

I've got to say i believe the story and find it totally plausible... what part can't people imagine coming from the lips and mind of that arrogant bully? Did anyone believe Dementriou was anything other than chocking on his public words about supporting North Melbourne in their decision? Look up hub...

At least if the window is closed we don't have to worry about keeping a lid on it... and there's always the front door (or the chimney ho ho ho!). If we address our fitness problems (as we seem to be doing -Misson was a huge get), a few guys step up, a few keep improving, and we get input from our f...

Would GT claim to have been pressured into signing something that did not exist? Could he be pressured into signing anything? He and RB did many great things for our club no doubt, but obviously this does not mean they are necessarily great or infallible men. Maybe the truth about GT lies somewhere ...

Racism is insidious and can spread like fire. Dire examples of this can be found now and throughout history the world over without too much investigation, which is exactly why it must never be given the slightest amount of oxygen. If people of a particular race wish to reclaim a word that has been u...
