    I predict that there is going to be some short term pain- I think he will get back to his best next year and the headlines, the EFC fans, and Damian Barrett are going to be unbearable.

    This will die down in time (hopefully) and I don't wish him any ill will, but I supsect as he becomes comfortable his standards will drop away. Habits are bloody hard things to change, especially if you aren't aware/don't acknowledge them in the first place.

    My ideal scenario is that we are flying and whatever he does or doesn't do does not even register in our "too busy winning multiple premierships" world. As an aside, I'd sort of like a gun player or two to leave them to come to us too (for some icing on the 'multiple-premiership/take that Essendon' cake.

      If Schache & Richards are doing ok, that should hopefully balance the media out.

        Wow! I see they’ve installed treadmills in TAB’s. An indictment on him that it took being traded to drop weight

          Don't lift a weight in 6 months and most footballers will lose 4kg. In fact lose 6kg of muscle, put on 2kg of fat, and bom -4kg and a Herald-Sun front page article about a player from their sponsored club.

              Have to say I am pretty stoked for him. Has done incredibly well with all of that young talent to keep getting a gig. Wasn't he essentially steak knives so that Cal Ward would have a mate to go up there with him?

                I think 'stable pony' was the phrase they used. Loved that.

                        I knew smoking dope was legal in Adelaide-the first time I was there a bloke I'd never met walked up and handed me a bud! Didn't know they had extended it to coke as well.
                        They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                            I think BT was thinking more twice a week.

                              i am more than happy to play my part here when the Redlegs play Centrals. I might even try to form an anti-Talia cheersquad.

                                So 4 weeks? Good start so far. I’m happy to chip in for a huge novelty inflatable mobile phone for you guys to take to full back at the games.
