My brother-in-law had a role at the Eagles, so these blokes were always over for parties. I don't think one went by where Taylor and Lukosious (sp?) didn't think it was a great idea to strip down and share a spa at some stage. Very funny bastards!!

I remember Taylor walking around starkers in the changerooms singing "Caravan of Love" and putting his arm around other players trying to get them to join in.

Was really interesting. And quite scary when he was saying he would still have memory loss and unsteady balance 10 days later.

Wonder if this could bring a premature end to riewoldts career?

Just on Brown, clearly the best commentator going around. His forthright personality means he doesn't pull any punches but he also knows what it's like to be on the relieving end of media crap so he doesn't deal In Hyperbole either.


Never mind Nick Riewoldt. You should be worrying about Brodie Smith. He's had two concussions this season and the one with Riewoldt showed a Justin Koschitzke like level of awareness. If the Crows have any sense at all they'll give Brodie a decent spell. You can't back him to get through a game these days and he hasn't been the same since Varcoe clipped him with his knee. I reckon a head knock has slowed down Luke Parker for a while and Sloane didn't back up that well either before he copped his latest injury.

regards,

REB


Fair point you raise mate, I've wondered the same about Tommy Jonas since the North Melbourne game.

This round is multicultural round, and each of the games are being called in another language.

They had a dude who will be calling the GWS Essendon game in Arabic to give us a dummy call and it sounded awesome haha. Reckon he sounds like a good commentator

Liked the show, until Robbo called everyone racist from the top of his high horse. Sort of sick of seeing his fat head.
But the the call in Arabic sounded great, over the top, but still great.

Paul Roos has a magical ability to blame the players when they lose and take credit for himself when they win

It is quite amazing he has escaped the scrutiny others have faced

He escapes it because Melbourne are shit and no one expects them to win more than 5 games a year.

Compare the scrutiny to Carlton earlier in the year, and Melbourne during the Bailey and Neeld eras.

Nothing much has changed in the last two years.

Getting Roos there on 1.5m was supposed to be the circuit breaker but nothing has changed.

Roos says they have improved a lot in the past 2 years but have they?

time will tell in the future

Bomber didn't have much success at Geelong for a few years.

Perhaps the results may come in during Goody's 5 yr stint

I love watching on the couch and now I can't because David 'f**king' King is on.

Absolute wanker of the highest order. All they need is Stephan Rowe and Ian Healy on with him and I'd end it!
