I loved and adored Bruce Reid. I will miss him greatly. He meant so much to so many people. This hurts so badly because he was a person who was infectious and you just wanted to be around him and he did more for people in times of need than anyone I know. 💔
So many great football memories have returned watching tonight’s episodes. I was so fortunate to be drafted to the

The year 2000 was a memorable year for the

Thank you
I have a great sense of relief for the game that McKay got found not guilty. I can only imagine how he is feeling. Would love to know who Steve Hocking consulted before getting this to the point that it did.
My condolences Sarah to you and your family.
Jack was universally known amongst all that knew him as one of the greatest human beings on the planet.
An absolute gentleman who had a real aura about him yet made everyone around him feel so comfortable in his presence.
RIP Jack
Yes, Garby. It is the highlight of many people’s week and I personally have never heard any fan wanting less footy to watch from the team they love each weekend.

- there are zero indicators that the customers (the fans) who are the lifeblood of the game want the game time reduced. So why are some people clamouring for it?
There are 127 people that have played a V/
@AFL
game on all 7 different days of the week
24 of them have kicked a goal on all 7 days
Mark Mercuri & Alan Didak have kicked at least 3 goals on each day of the week
Matthew Lloyd is only one with 4+ on every day
Agree 100% Lauren. Why not have it taken out of the players salary cap for beaches like this. Therefore, Stack and Coleman-Jones can take the whole hit and not have extra ramifications for off field staff who are left picking up the pieces.
So someone who is completely innocent in all this could lose their job because of the stupidity of a few. Wonder if they thought about that on Orchid Avenue early this morning.
I liken being named in an all Australian second team to when they used to hand out runners up medallions for losing the grand final. Johnny Barnes turfed his into the crowd in 2001. No thanks
Few whispers of an All-Australian second team being named on Wed. Not sure if it comes to fruition, but it was discussed among the selection panel. Might be a minority view, but if you're going to name 44 surely it's a better option than leaving players on the cutting room floor.
Bontempelli, Smith and co will never have an easier day at the office again as brilliant as they were and as hard as they work. Such a sad state of affairs at Adelaide for a once powerful club.

Essendon great Matthew Lloyd has encouraged his old side to rough up ex-teammate Orazio Fantasia when he lines up against them for the first time in rival colours this week.
🏅 | Collingwood ruckman Brodie Grundy has stormed home to win this year’s
@theheraldsun
player of the year award. Grundy polled three votes against Fremantle, taking him to 27 votes, one ahead of Hawk Tom Mitchell and Demon Max Gawn.
@brodiegrundy
EXCLUSIVE: For years Matthew Lloyd has told the story of how he bravely fought off a vicious Lion attack.
But finally, Damian Barrett has exposed the shocking truth of the 'mauling' 😲😅

"Last week Nathan Buckley had a phone conversation with Adam Treloar. He told him that the senior core of the group didn't want him around anymore. I would find it staggering (if the players wanted him out), he is very popular in that group"

At the Western Bulldogs intra club the forward line for the A team is Naughton,Lobb, Darcy, Bontempelli, Ugle Hagan and Weightman. Few other smalls floating through as well but what a forward line. Bont has been phenomenal
Just watched the saints match play. For those interested, a healthy list with most out there bar Sinclair and Dow. Wanganeen-Milera dominant off half back, Liam Henry very good as an inside mid, Phillipou had some time inside mid and kicked 3. King kicked 4. Wilkie the general.
A real buzz for my father John and I to meet the great Sir Richard Hadlee at the MCG today. He would be handy out there now to knock over the lower order.

saw Bec Judd giving some affection to a guest on Postcards, and from what we can tell from this vision, TJ was flat 😂

If Mitch Brown continues to be overlooked by Melbourne would be good to see Essendon go after him again at the end of the year, or another club for that matter!
My 8 year old son just asked me who was the best bat and best bowler of all time?
Off the top of my head I said to him, Don Bradman and Shane Warne. Thoughts?
His body shape has changed dramatically. Looks 3kgs lighter. Love seeing players like that who you can clearly see have done the work and made significant changes. Magnificent win.
good afternoon my good friend and mate

Matty Lloyd, I hear you made light of the gold pants I wore with a brown leather jacket to the VFL final on Sunday. I wear Brown and Gold proudly. And in case you missed it the Hawks are competing in all football finals. AFL, VFL, VFLW.
Where are your boys? Go Hawks
Thank you to everyone who watched on FB, cheered me on and most importantly donated in these brutal times. We smashed our fundraising goal! Winners will be announced tonight. Happy easter to all.
