Woohoo!

[Fletch]

I'm coming down for my first game of the year tommorrow, oh geeze I can't wait to rip into those Red and Black scum!

By the way I'll keep an eye out for all the regulars but since I only know what Joffa and Miss Magpie look like it could be tough.

GO THE D9!

I heard the Solomen rumour also. Although it was from another source. This source is involved with the board and told my Grandfather (Son of Syd Coventry) about it. They are throwing big money at him, believed to be in excess of $360,000. They are playing on his friendship with Tarrant, and the ability to offer him money Essendon can't afford.

And by the way, to all you chicks, he is attached. He is dating a blonde haired model. Wouldn't mind having a half back flank over her.

May the St Kevin's Old Boys Prevail.

Would be great to have Solomon down at Collingwood, but you know what rumours are like.

[Black_White]

Hey Fletch, surely you know what Elvira looks like!
You've seen her picture.

If your sources are true then that's disappointing ... seems the club is falling back into its old ways

The only people that could suffer from letting out this info is the Club. Letting the cat out of the bag at board level and then at "club insider" level has long caused problems at the club - when will we learn?

Frankly if a board member is disclosing this information to others either not on the board or employed by the football department then they are breaching their duty as a director and don't deserve to be there.

Like everyone else I'd like it to be true - but I'd prefer it to be delivered in 10 months time as a complete surprise than have it stuffed up because big noters had to blurt it out early

[Elvira]

Ummm NO, Fletch has not seen my pic Craig!!!! Where did you get that from?????????


ELVIRA.......

[Black_White]

The pic under your name! DOH!!

[the president]

For anyone to say that we are speaking to any management group or player or to say we are offering amounts of money is nonsense.
The board do not talk of these issues so if anyone is saying they are involved they are telling fibs.
We liase daily with all managers and have an extensive knowledge of who is coming out of contract and who wants to move.
Love the speculation but anyone proporting to have inside knowledge is auditioning for a position with the "puppetry of the penis" troup. Unless that person is me, Greg Swann or the coach.
Rest assured we will continue to recruit the best available players to Collingwood.
The President.

Thanks Ed!!

Fletch- Where were you??

Well Mags, that clears it all up. To the Prez, I apologise now as I just posted a "rumour" to the Hawthorn website that Trent Croad was out of contract and that the magpies where ready to swoop!
Oops, I stuffed up there.

You can rest assured Rohan that the president is Eddie.

Are you actually criticising him for coming and answering your post? How many AFL Presidents can you name that take the time to go to the supporters to answer their questions? I can tell you the answer - one and that's our president.

Incidentally, he would have found it difficult to answer your post on the official forum, because you haven't posted it there.

Sounds a bit like a nose out of joint to me.
