It's D5 FFS.. seriously.. 10min and one beer isn't going to impact your recovery so significantly

Sound like a pack of soft potatoes.

So true. My favourite is sinking beers while in the ice bath.

I only drink soft drink and I already had 3 nice set up with the shed

Well brain cells aren't exactly common place at Greenies.. Pooraka player should probably get tested - got knows what he caught from the errand saliva spray..

Those that know all (or nothing) had Greenies closing the door a few weeks ago and yet Greenies managed to be matching the (arguably) flag favourites for a good portion of the game.

Champ, you lost by 8 goals in the A grade and 25 goals in the B grade.. if that's entertaining "matching it" then you got low standards at Greenacres.

No depth in your magoos.. when Simon Arnold, Brenton Starke and Rowan McArthur are amongst the best in the 2nd's.. you know you're stuffed!

I'm scared for what the likes of BOS and Lockleys will do to you.. How you gonna go when the Clark brothers are away next week?

Why pinpoint the lack of braincells at one club, I'm very concerned with the lack of respect shown for Greenies this season not only by you but by others too

Wait til round 3 you will learn quick smart..umpires abused all game as if they would go to club rooms after game

Zartan you of all people would know we have low standards at Greenies....

Woody Souths B grade will be very strong again this season - piled on a massive 9 goal last quarter (to 1 point i think) to overrun us on Saturday.

Ramah grows into a bigger bulkier unit every time I see him, I really like watching him play.

I'm going to get into trouble ... but ...

I have never understood the "must drink in the bar after the game rule".

I personally dislike the vast majority of the opposition I play on, I don't drink beer and don't see the need to be contributing cash into the coffers of clubs that generally speaking pay their players way more than we do. What exactly am I supposed to be doing there?

**** that noise.

Each to their own Morgs.

It stems back from the days where people actually used to like socialising with each other, after a hard fought on field battle. I'm sure your magnificent bar facilities would be appreciative of any extra $$ coming it's way from opposition support.

You'd hate country footy then

I Don't think its about that Morrell. Quite often clubs put jugs on for oppositions after the game, more just respecting your opposition after smashing in all day.
Although no one from Pulteney came in afterwards Saturday.

Not sure what the policy is for other clubs but Greenies will shout the opposition drinks and generally food after the game...so no cash contribution required

Im with you Arch. BOS were great on the weekend. A lot of their players, coaches and the umpires came in to have a drink with us on Saturday. Its not about hate or anything like that. Gone are the days in my opinion that you cant be big boys and leave it out on the filed and at least have a drink with the opposition. I made it a purpose of mine to offer discounted meals to the BOS boys on the weekend. They didn't have to take the offer but it was there if they wanted. Jugs were offered but they had a thing where one of their A grade lads had to shout a carton to his team mates. BOS called and said this was the case and asked if it was ok to buy from the bar. Absolutely its fine. I think its a mark of respect to have a drink with the opposition regardless of what happens out on the filed. Take last year for example. Terrible day on the field in R15 but the BOS boys came in and had a beer and some stayed until midnight with us. My lads have been told they need to do it whether or not the club we play at has the facilities but we at least make the effort.

I think it's a show of respect and doing what you can to keep relationships between clubs healthy, I love checking out the past player photo's and seeing who originated from each club, it's good see that someone who can appear like a dickhead out on the field can be a decent bloke off of it.

No doubt its an old fashioned thing, but to me, especially if it's in a location a long way away, I just want to get outta there and get home. Sorry if that's now considered rude but ah well.

The footy club at Mitchell Park don't get any direct money from the bar. That's owned by the sporting club. Much to my chagrin. When you visit please buy a drink from the guys with the big esky at the front.

But in all honesty, I head back to mine pretty much immediately after home games as well so wouldn't notice if oppo players come in or not. I definitely wouldn't consider it rude if they didn't. Times have changed, players probably have wives, kids and other commitments to get home to.
