We got Duursma for the McKay compensation and Comben looks like he will fill the role more than adequately, definitely been a win so far, and we need to take all of the small wins.


How many of his 10 games have been in defence?

Reckon I'd need to see more than 1 to make a more than adequate call.

Yep staying on the park is his first challenge, but if he can do that Im more than confident in the talent he possesses.

As I said small wins.

If they sack him now he will end up at a club with a "strong culture (cough Geelong)" for free

If they keep him but not really keep him (18 weeks) they will get something for him in a trade

“The man was arrested and charged with use telecommunications service to harass and breaching a court order. He was bailed to the Broadmeadows Magistrates’ Court on 21 November.”

Thomas was sacked by the Roos earlier this year after repeated conduct breaches, including threatening a woman.

I think Geelong tested the waters but if they have any respect at all for Jimmy Bartel his comments on the subject certainly poured cold water on the idea. Unlike Tyson Stengle, it appears this bloke will never learn.

No Carey, Stevens or Archer at North’s ‘99 premiership reunion this Sunday, but Adam Simpson is due to fly in.

There will also be a nice moment before the game when Pagan & Clarkson get together with the 1999 premiership cup

One of the best days of my life, some footage appeared on facebook a couple of years back of the after party at the tennis centre and there was a close up of me reaching out to touch the cup, I couldn't believe it!
