Caro is getting upset
The turmoil she predicted fizzled out to a whimper
Oh well
Time for her to write more articles expressing her glowing admiration of how well Carlton cheat

Yes. you're right. Also ,the appointment of Barber as head doctor is sensatonal, AND I notice that the club has also retained Dr Ian Stone, long time saints doc...SMART to keep the knowledge and continuity about player medical status and condition, i.e., to BUILD on knowledge and expertise in that area so Missen and Barber can lead, but have Stone around for proper medical injury background...yipper wrote:Gee, the Saints have been kicking a few off-field goals lately. Mate of mine (in the AFL industry) reckons we are building nicely off-field. Have scored a real coup in snaring Drain and we now have the most Professional fitness / conditioning team I can ever recall.
What happened to the turmoil Caro / Patrick??? The self-imploding?? Hmmm, just travelling nicely at the minute down there in Linton St.

I am very pleased that it is aguy who has the experience to do the job....rather than justa high profile ex-AFL footballer who had yet to cut his teeth.

Now if we can only get our house (structurally) in order, i.e. Moorabbin. I must admit it made me a little sad to see how badly it had deteriorated over time. It has pretty well past the point of a makeover. Come on Kingston, get on board, everyone else is!

I did notice Alyce getting a run in Melbourne Homicide as the randy wife of one of the senior detectives.

These events followed a dispute the previous summer over the appointment of a football manager who, ultimately, was never appointed. The ( St.Kilda ) administration had decided to hire former Essendon football manager Matthew Drain but changed its plans in the face of opposition from Thomas and instead added responsibilities to assistant coach Matt Rendell.
Well in terms of quality gained...then yes the Blight-baited year of gaining GTrain and Hamill was better.....chook23 wrote:luv the enthusiasm but BEST trade week ever.........

When boy wonder bundy is acquiring Port rejects like Brooks, Guerra and Ackland through his previous association, why not give him more responsibility
make a play for Brogan, when they say no, oh ok we'll give you pick 6 and 31 for Brooks then![]()
Thomas obviously wanted to maintain the status quo, he found the chook raffle approach to his liking, just so long as he had TOTAL dictatorial control over it, with his mate boy wonder bundy by his side
I mean FAIR FLOWERING DINKUM
Matthew Drain was obviously one drain too many for Thomas who was too busy pissing away our chances with poor list development and recruiting down his own
Excellent appointment and finally we have this quality individual at our club after having exited out the buffoon that sent us into decline, who then turns around and sues the club he says he loves and wouldn't do anything to hurt, yeah righto
Isn't it great Grump, we have our own sort of insane superhero, leaping forth from a telephone box amidst a shower of dribble and twitching, clad in a cape and his reg grundy's whenever his super hearing detects the following phrases of evil:GrumpyOne wrote: GROUNDHOG DAY!
