I think Gill might be looking over his shoulder
Please be true… please be true…
Only so he can watch Vlad taking his pants off.
All and sundry thought FCFC’s CEO search was a “boat race” and they’ve gone for (what on the surface appears to be) a far less high-profile and experienced operator. In doing so, they’ve delivered a sneaky little FU to the AFL (read: McCocklan). One of the lapdogs biting the hand that feeds?
I begrudgingly offer kudos to them… and have all my fingers and dangly bits crossed that it’s the beginning of the fall of the Roman Empire (Dill & his nasty private schoolboy’s club)…
Nah, fark em.
Out with the trash (Gibbs aside)
In with a bunch of slightly better but still average players that only other rabble teams wanted

You must have very saggy bits.
Sad news
Carlton will be rubbish next year.
We need to beat them by 100 each time we play them.
Never want to hear that. NOt least of all because it means another year of them playing at the top end of the draft
A team made up entirely of first round picks is still a reality.
Yeah, nah
Fark them to high hell
Oh dear, sad news for Docherty
Blues lose one of their best 2 mids in Gibbs and now one of competitions best HBF … but hey they brought in Kennedy & Mullett though! Ha!
Will thoroughly enjoy seeing them remain at bottom of ladder
Terrible news for him, second day of training. Terrible terrible luck and news
We only get them once, in Round 8
Expecting either a huge win or major essington display
The wording of my post was such that no-one could take offence at schadenfreude, but in really, it was sarcasm at its most extreme. I am in total accord with your views, and expressed so eloquently as is your wont.
We will smash them
Wow, that is horrible news for Docherty. This is the time of the year when optimism is at its highest but also the possibility of a calamitous injury ever present. Wish him well. That sucks. Fingers crossed we avoid the curse…
I’m expecting you’ll either be really pleased with the result, or really not pleased.
