    It's not a Hollywood movie or sit-com, with a happy ending. It's the real world and he's charged with aggravated burglary and gets to spend some time reflecting about the decisions in his life that led him to a public bail hearing (like he got today).

      Clarko said he would be interested in getting Stringer, but it's unlikely they could satisfy our trade request.

        A very nice way of saying things without saying them.

          Kinda felt like Jake was a piece of meat on stage such a sad state of affairs for mine. My opinion is that his manager wants him to stay because its his best chance to increase his value considering he is entering the final year of his contract.

            The fact that it seems an extremely talented player is being punted from the club won a flag last year by a coach who is extremely well respected by all and sundry and has previously worked at said clubs doesn't heighten your senses that the rumours about Jake might be correct?

                That scene never does end well even in the movies. The dude always starts swaying with emotion and then falls off the bloody balcony and ends up in traction in hospital.

                Clarko probably has better information than us and knows which rumours are true.
                They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                  And his ex now has a boyfriend. He might that find hard to take.

                      Ralph is on SEN now saying that "bulldog supporters have to know why they are only getting pick 18 for a premiership player."

                        If so, he is a moron.
                        Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

                          Stringer, MacLure, both?

                            Unless Geelong can find another trade to get that pick around the top 10 I would not even answer their call if I was JMac. The same if they in anyway intimate that Motlop or Menzel could be part of a deal.
                            If we were to roll over that easily I would be very upset with our club.

                                There's an inescapable feeling this slow-mo car crash will eventually be looked back upon as 'List Management 101 : What Not To Do'.

                                And can barely wait for the hardest of all goal celebrations when Jake straight arms Motlop en route to slotting his first one against us in Cats colours.
