I might go and ask my Dad what sort of player Collo was.

I reckon we'll end up talking about Big Nick's tree trunk leg's, the day his cousin Ted saved Dad when he tried to fight some guy who bad mouthed Nick, we'll talk about Jezza, and Doully, Collo will be described a tough hard player.

Another great article :D

You're best yet, Danny.

The old man described Collo, as a player, to me as a hard player who always had you watching your back.

No wonder they called him "the Educated Elbow".

Hey Spooky,

You said "We need to be flexible. A thing this club forgot about over the past ten years. The most flexible component of any system controls that system – we forgot this basic tenet and became rigid. We took to making grand statements of fact – we told the world what we would do or never do"

"Porcine Orifice" :P

Great stuff Old Fruit. :D

Oh Dannyboy, I have read much on this site lately that has not inspired me to respond.
Once again you have found the little piece of string that rings my bell.
Thanks mate.
Go Blues.
Regards Pedro.

Based on the learnings of the late Elliott regime and the penalties dished out by the AFL - we should change it to:

"Vir prudence non contra ventum mengit"
