i am pretty sure I said it was all over. I can tell ya now that The bays will clear him BUT I bet only to a South, Westies or Norwood. Someone they know will not be a threat this year. I know where his preference is and that the club want him. If not there will play country for a small fortune you would think.

I'll bet a Darwin Stubby that Stuey Totham tries to have a chat to him this weekend in Darwin.
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

Dont miss a chance do you re Jimmy Allan! Still you should get a real close look and lesson this season re outside receivers who do nothing with the ball now Centrals have recruited Boyd!


Would'nt have seen much hiding behind the White Wiggle all game either I'da thought.
Hey soccer you owe us 45million.

What a joke

The guy wants to play footy better than any trainging camp Team bonding or not.We went through this a few years ago with Butcher i think.The guy is not surfing or partying he is playing footy to earn some $$$ and we want to can him.Playing up there he would be more advanced than any other glenelg player

It gets harder and harder to follow this club :oops:

The club had a choice not to put an ultimatum on his head in the 1st place.

He stuck with us through the worst times could have left but stayed and they treat him like this like i said

if playing up there was better a lot more people would be doing it

treat him like what? have an agreed upon contract and upholding their end of the deal? only 1 party broke the deal and only 1 party could apologise and do the right thing.

yes he stuck with us but it is well documented that at the end of each season he looked around to see what he get elsewhere and then pressure the club into his demends - the only difference now is he is no longer our best player and can no longer dictate what happens

the only joke is his quotes saying how much he loved the place - well there is a pretty easy way to show that and he didnt

Can still get them. Got one in my fridge that I purchased at a bottle shop opposite TIO Stadium in July last year. Haven't had the courage to try it, not sure it will be as sweet as a pale...

:ymapplause:

Well said. Pretty stupid to defend him....Maybe we should just scrap our pre seasons and just send them all off to the NT to play games over the summer, is that what you would prefer birdmanptr? It's a team game we play, you put in the work together, you can't just pick and choose when you play and train, maybe he didnt think the club would call his bluff because of who he thinks he is, we have no need for people like that at our club.

No, not at all ... it's a tragedy because he's been such a great clubman and he's a top bloke.

In this case the club is (unfortunately) correct.

He has been training with us and playing up there i cant see a problem with that.Others can such as life

Part of me hopes he gets a flag this year and would it not be a laugh if his new team beat us
