It seems to have become the vogue term, enabling media scrutiny to be limited in certain situations I have pencilled it in myself for use later this year if I happen to not win the Tipping Comp Some on here would suggest that having a pet monkey called Chimpy as your best friend,already brings your mental condition into doubt. Not me mind you, but some? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron19 Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 Go Get F^*@ sounds like a more appropriate deal. Or Geez, that isn't the message Chimpy is getting from Rossco... he seems very keen, according to chimps. Maybe Ross is thinking of heading to Sydney? After all, your best assistant coach in Brert Kirk left for Sydney last year You mean this bloke? Bahahaahahaha, what a tosser! I have to agree with you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post GrantSmith Posted February 13, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted February 13, 2016 I wonder what's really happening with Garry Lyon and Billy Brownless. The true story will come out. It always does. Anyone heard a rumour? A longtime friendship beyond repair, both wives get a mention... seems only one way this is headed Herald Sun ran a story a few hours ago which confirmed that Garry hooked up with Bill's ex-missus... Not quite a Wayne Carey as Lyon and his missus are also split up... Story goes on to say that those close to Bill seem to believe that he still wants to fix things up with Garry... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexRRR Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 (edited) Don't think anyone needed to be a genius to figure out something like that is what caused the uproar, an old friend who was like a father figure to me when I was a young man once said to me "a standing cock has no consciouses" ho well real life being played out in public..... Ps, wasn't so long ago Terry, Chelsea captain and married was found out rooting a just departed former club man recently ex wife, amazingly he's still captain and the club went on to win a few more cups and a championship, didn't seem to loose any friends in the long run either.

Billy seems to be an emotional kind of guy. Victim or not, he needs to be clever about this. If it's a choice between Lyon or Billy for media jobs, there's only going to be one winner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BookMan Posted February 14, 2016 Author Share Posted February 14, 2016 Mick Vows to keep Essendon out of the finals for years to come... MICK Malthouse could help train and be a mentor to some of Essendon's banned 34 players this season. The AFL coaching games record holder has been in discussions with the AFL, the players' association and one suspended Bomber about preparing the exiled players for 2017. Twelve current Dons have been banned for doping offences as well as five of their former teammates now at other AFL clubs, with most of the suspensions expiring in November. The players involved in the Bombers' 2012 supplements regime can train together, but must not have any guidance from their clubs. Malthouse and his long-time fitness chief David Buttifant have gone into business offering leadership and practical methods for life balance since the triple-premiership coach was sacked by Carlton after round eight last season. Malthouse told Fairfax Media it was still unclear whether a training program would be set up, given the need to solve logistical issues such as finding a training venue, insurance to cover injuries, employing a doctor and payment for the program. http://www.afl.com.au/news/2016-02-14/malthouse-could-train-banned-essendon-players 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post joboss Posted February 14, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted February 14, 2016 Banned Dons and the slow ox. "The thing I want to see is (for the players to) get through the year in a good mental state – that's the priority," Malthouse said. Gee, he could almost get a "soft" government funded grant to pay his fees, if he stays on the mental health box. Does his contracted golden parachute from the Blues extend into 2016? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexRRR Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Great interview with Billy. It's easy to forget that he was a very good footballer. I disagree and strongly, had his moments of course but 198 games for 441 goals was just average and in my book below average for what you would call a good full forward, maybe some think he was better for the fact he played in 4 losing grand finals with the Cats, he had his critics back then, was no star just the fact he was big kept him there, retired at 30 when you would think big guys where right in there prime.

BookMan Posted February 15, 2016 Author Share Posted February 15, 2016 Loved ones suffer just as much in Garry Lyon fallout, writes Susie O’BrienWHEN middle-aged people with families and responsibilities act like teenagers, lots of people get hurt. It seems that Garry Lyon and Nicky Brownless were both single when they started to see each other. But it doesn’t mean their relationship hasn’t had negative ramifications on those around them. You can’t just pretend two decades of friendship and marriage — not to mention seven children — don’t exist. MORE: FOOTY SHOW DELETES ROGUE BROWNLESS VALENTINE’S TWEET By all accounts Garry Lyon, who suffers from depression, is feeling pretty devastated right now. But how do you think Billy Brownless and Lyon’s ex wife Melissa are feeling? Melissa and Billy — who did nothing wrong — are going about their day today with everyone knowing their personal business. There’s no point shooting the messengers — the media — when it all comes down to the actions of two people who should have known what the fallout would be. When you are as famous as Lyon and Brownless, you have to expect there will be some public interest in your private life — especially when it affects your work. This is surely another example of the way high profile men with big pay packets and large egos forget the impact of their actions on the people around them. Brownless hit the nail on the head when he noted in a recent interview that those in the media “get carried away with ourselves”. “There’s no doubt about that and we get very selfish, or self absorbed and it’s all about us. You do forget your family or your wife or your kids, and then later on when you think about it you think ‘Geez I should have done more’”. He’s right. You may have thought some of these people would have learnt something from watching the fallout from the Wayne Carey affair a few years ago. Carey, who was married to his high school sweetheart Sally, had an affair with his teammate Anthony Stevens’ wife Kelli. The pair was discovered after meeting up in a bathroom at a party. Again, these were adults acting like children — putting their selfish desires before the needs of others around them. In this case the situation is different because Carey and Kelli Stevens were both married; Garry Lyon and Nicky Brownless are both single. But, as I mentioned before, it doesn’t mean they are totally free to do whatever they want to do. As adults, they should be more mindful of the effect of their actions on the people around them. Media reports suggest Garry Lyon is depressed, and his friends and family are “rallying around”. I hope other members of both families are getting the same level of support — they’re going to need it. http://www.adelaidenow.com.au/news/opinion/susie-obrien/loved-ones-suffer-just-as-much-in-garry-lyon-fallout-writes-susie-obrien/news-story/298a909eab0546091f47e0e276dece7a 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
