It was a blinder compared to JDG, talk about blokes looking disinterested.
Human behavioural studies suggest people who use a lot of swear words tend to be more honest & trustworthy.

48 magic.. his 50th was his second worst, his worst was the game he did his knee last season against the hawks.
Not a bad record!!
The match day thread is for unfiltered BS knee jerk reactions. The time for level headed comment comes after.

Maybe he's missing his Dad who's currently in the Jungle doing I'm a celebrity-get me out of here.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

I often wonder what Peter's father would have been like if he'd pulled on the Black and White?

Geeze it could have come from Peter's Mother in hindsight!!

^^^^

From what I remember reading years ago, Peter’s father was a very good soccer player. Peter himself was in line to become a soccer star for South Melbourne before he was drawn to footy. Thank goodness for that

^ And, yet, somehow he's named on the wing, so a guy who is half as good as him could be named in Nick's centre.

@skaman^^^ You have an excellent memory, and you are right on all counts! Peter also had a brother, Victor Daicos who trained with Collingwood but was nowhere as talented as Peter.
Very sadly he passed away in January 2022.
