Rioli looks in good nick. Light years difference from when he first arrived. Hopefully the fitness is up to scratch too.

Saw a pic of him on FB, actually doesn't look chubby/puppy fat for the first time during preseason phase
 Quite lean indeed.

The site is becoming borderline unusable

I constantly get the following error

Don’t know how it works, but you need a new provider/host

Connection Problems

Sorry, SMF was unable to connect to the database. This may be caused by the server being busy. Please try again later.

Ditto.

Might be time to look for a new host instead of  every month

We are doing a lot of work behind the scenes that people obviously are not aware of.

It isn't as simple as "find a new host". Wish it was

We are doing the best and working as hard as we can to find a permanent solution

Will repeat again, no one is more frustrated than us.

I understand that it was only pick 99 that we weren't going to use. THough that picked would have ended up closer to late 60s early 70s wouldn't it?

But ...

The reason I don't get it is

He was a rookie at Geelong who was getting de-listed. And from what I understand was no where near getting an AFL game down there (will stand corrected if I've read all that wrong)

I appreciate he fills a need I'm just not sold yet on using a primary list spot on him when we could have picked him up in the rookie draft for nothing

I wish the kid nothing but the best,  he's a Tiger now

I think the idea was that he was going to be delisted, he was told so, he said he wanted to play for us and we wanted him, so trading just meant he wouldn't go to the rookie draft and thus no chance of WC etc picking him up. Long shot but yeah.

Otherwise....agree on most points pretty much.

Whatever the knock on him is I'm sure we'll know about it & have plans in place to address it/them.

56 years member in 2026. But a supporter for much longer,

2 flags before & 6 flags since becoming a  member.  Joy, heartache & everything in between, what a fantastic experience.

At one stage my kids were threatening me with charges of mental cruelty    fortunately all is now forgiven. 

2017 the joy of all of us being there (unfortunately not all in the same location) but catching up outside the ground was unforgettable. One of the most enjoyable experiences of my/our lives
