      Quite a few rebellions there though wouldn't you say? Jolly seems like a fairly measured guy.
      But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

        Apparently he's not that popular at the club.
        The curse is dead.

            Bump

            This thread was such a long time ago, but needed a bump after Gerard Whatley's comment tonight on AFL360. For those of you who missed it he was calling Max Gawn The People's Beard. He added that he had asked Bob Murphy if he could hand him that title !!!!

            This is sacrilege!!! How dare Gerard assume he may even utter these words in the same sentence let alone give the mantle to someone else.

            Bob ... Sort Whatley out ... This is not on !!!

            Anyone else want to borrow my soapbox???

                Bob is better than that and will take no part in handing over the mantle.

                      Outrageous! The title of the People's Beard can't be handed around willy-nilly! It is a solemn office and not to be worn lightly.

                          Reg, our glorious leader, won't be joining us due to his bad back.

                            Even if you were to consider a succession plan, you couldn't hand over a title of people's anything to a club like Melbourne, despite Max being somewhat of an anomaly on their (or potentially any) list (being public school educated)

                              The Ruling classes still have to communicate with their minions from time to time. If one or two of them turn out to be good at football and know which cutlery to use why not have them in the team.

                                If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.
