From what I have been told, it was definitely the length. Belinda though, must be on decent money here as she was offered $2 million a year to go to Melbourne for work


No chance that is correct

I think the captaincy carrot dangled in front of him got the deal done.
Walker won't be skipper next year.

I'm am a Foxtel person so I would not know her if I fell over her. (maybe I would) but to say she was offered a job of massive proportions might suggest someone in Melbourne has offered her a highly job just so Rory would have to move so she could accept it. I wonder if it fell through.

Victorian clubs couldn't afford what the Crows put on the table.
I feel a bit relieved as if the Crows had traded him and wifh their current draft picks this year in a good draft it would have been scary and the Crows would have been a monty for a flag in 5 years time.
Good PR stunt but its going to cost them big time.

Juddy and his missus are still employed by Visy(well not really anymore) so it’s possible another Victoria club did similar.

We would have only received a compo pick in late or early 20s because he’s served his 7 years. Still have plenty of picks inside the top 20.

Gibbs challenging the fine. Rightly so.
Only issue is the Geelong medical report potting him. I reckon they can argue Selwood also initiated contact which could get him off.

Yeah he did, selwood sort of leans into him also is what I meant. Not likely to get off due to Selwoods reaction (not saying he faked it...)

Went to my first ever Crows game Thursday night where I wasn't surrounded by dickheads. The blokes standing next to us were good value and there was some good light hearted banter all night which was good fun. Geez the crowd was loud. You can certainly understand why the home team gets some 50/50 frees go their way. Would be hard to not pay the free when you have 50000 people all yelling the same thing at once. Well done to the Crows though. Good win.
So you've seen everything have you?
Yep
Have you ever seen a man eat his own head?
No
Well you haven't seen everything then have you.
