    Being fingerprinted and the mug shot are pretty humbling.

    I'll take the internet apology any day. At least you don't have to appear in court.

      Oh well, I suppose the simple analysis is that the Pies played their GF last week, all the travel and quarantine, no petrol tickets left.

      Whole side seemed off tonight.

          Yep been there, done that. Cracked jokes with the cops all the way through and then put the cheesiest on for the mug shot.
          They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

            BTW, a guy named D Mitchell was asking after you on BF with your BF name. Initially I told him that you had been arrested in Bangkok many years ago, and was posting on WOOF from your prison cell.

            He took that a bit seriously, so I told him that was fake news and that you were in fact in North Korea and was #2 in the regime. I think he was a poster on here at some time, and told him you were now TwoDogs here, or whatever that is in Korean.

              Actually I have done all that. Many moons ago in a more delinquent time.

              I actually ran into the police man that arrested me at a job a few years ago. I asked if he remembered me and he said "should I?" And I said "no".

              But admitting you're wrong online is like the foulest tasting humble pie.

                Feel sorry for Buckley.

                I gave up watching part way through 2nd qtr. Be interested to see which player(s) Pies let go.

                Was Grundy injured or just tired? Bevo take note - Timmy needs some help.

                Please not a cats vs tigers GF.

                Our day will come
                And we'll have everything.
                We'll share the joy
                Just like '54 again.

                    Good thinking.

                    I had a home invasion not long ago. No damage done and it turned out he was a nutter so I didn't press charges.

                    But a few weeks later, I ran into him at my local Aldi.

                    He didn't recognise me, but it was rather awkward.

                        Ironically I ran into one of the coppers involved in mine a few months after the event at the old Footscray social club, it would have been late 1987. He insisted on buying me a drink even though I don't drink and even if I did he would have been the last bloke I would have chosen to have a drink with. The other coppers were okay but this guy thought he was robocop.

                                Grundy out put has been down 2nd half of the year.

                                I think Collingwood understood Grundy needed help by playing both Darcy Cameron and Cox the last couple of weeks.
                                More of an In Bruges guy?
