For his 427th game, the most by any VFL/AFL player ever?

Multicultural round we had ours in Chinese, you didn't need the Kleenex for that as well did you?


unlike Port, North are challenging for a finals berth and need to win to hold off STK who are the team they are playing.
Yes celebrate the milestone but don't forget the no.1 focus for the day...win the f..king game to keep your season alive.

No one gives a shit what Port do with their China move, we've become used to Ports match day antics as an attempt to deflect the other on field faults.


So you are saying this a player driven initiative?

So just let the moment slide on by?
If you want to go quickly, go alone.

If you want to go far, go together.

No, happy for it to be commemorated, but tone it down a touch and focus more on the important win they need

I am sure the players and coaching staff are concentrating on the game. Everything else the club are doing to mark the occasion is peripheral to their preparation.

What about when Eddie Betts played his 200th? It was only his 16th game for the Crows but everyone was given yellow T-shirts to mark the occasion. The Crows lost that game so I guess they weren't focussed on the game as much as yellow T-shirts.

by agreeing that giving out t-shirts for a 200th might have been too much is back pedalling?

You grumpy bastards LOL. I'm no Boomer fan but breaking the league record is massive. Now that rubbish is over with what about Boris and Bartel? I've heard that Boris is changing his name to Corey for this match and that Jimmy Bartel will wear long sleeves.

He also released a book this week where he lied about the biggest scandal in the club in recent memory

I agree that it's a massive achievement but surely changing your jumper to commemorate a single player is gong a bit far? Why not just sell them, the players don't have to wear them
