i will be periscoping training tonight. exclusive and live. i will follow him around and see if he won't speak to the little people to reassure them and reduce their anxiety levels.

Finally, someone willing to do the hard yards and get answers to the tough questions!

he better be on the plane or things might get a bit tricky.

i do enjoy your balanced, even perspective on things.

As an interesting aside to the scharenberg speculation , and some of the vitriol directed against him
Can anyone else here recall the speculation about Nathan Buckley around 1995 when many ( outside the club) had him signed sealed and delivered to Port as there inaugural captain ( think that was the speculation). I remember distinctly many " supporters" at a game at the G booing ( the non racial boo) bucks during a number of games on the back of that speculation. On reflection a sad
For me anyway it showed to be not presumptive . If it happens I may sink the boots in , but until then I will try to avoid the Buckley booing syndrome, as it tarnished Bucks by the many supporters who joined in !

Anyone else remember this happening .

Not worth losing sleep over, if he wants to go there's nothing we can do about it, we'll get either of the SA clubs first round selections as compensation.

Seems we are so confident of him staying we are willing to bring in his best mate as well, come on down Aish.

I agree. By "we" do you mean you and me?

Yeah you are spot on. I remember this happening very well.

You call that balance? I'll either be standing inside a chalk-drawn pentacle, mouthing ritual incantations to levitate his heart and liver out of his body, or calling for his immediate appointment to the AFL Hall of Fame.

Well that sucks. Didn't seem to do much wrong. Maybe dropped for not singing the song hard enough
