Eddie McEverywhere and McEveryIssueIsAboutMYClubOnly, give it a friggin rest.
Are you saying that because of him asking for compensation for the Sunday night crowd? Bit rich from Eddie i would've thought. This is what most of the smaller clubs deal with most weeks (playing on Sunday that is)

No, him in general just recent months.

Strange thing in his call for compensation for really poor size crowd Sunday for our two clubs is that I thought Carlton and Collingwood had been sharing the takings from our two meetings each season for over a decade. Maybe that has changed. So I thought we lost out as a club as much as Collingwood with poor turn out on Sunday. If only Collingwood lost that is not good too as Carlton and Collingwood clashes usually guaranteed of big crowd no matter what. Stupid time to have a game. Twilight Sunday is almost too late for last game of round unless it is in Perth but any later just ridiculous.

As for Eddie himself he's been crapping on about COLA, Equalisation policy, free agency, fixturing, re-viewing league history etc etc. and all of his points have been motivated by simply his only Collingwood interests which is to be expected. What I'm of sick of hearing is him making out it is anything else and trying to say he speaks for more than just his own club and has the games interest at heart. Most of the time he does not. How he behaved to Adam Goodes last season after making out he was sticking up for him originally was a disgrace. Goodes saw threw it and rightfully does not call him a friend. Majority of time he is simply got his biased Collingwood opinion being expressed but he makes out as if it is not. Most of other presidents are a bit more balanced of how often they make comment and how they express their views.

Demon signs on even though he is yet to play...

Melbourne's Jesse Hogan has signed a contract extension that will see him stay a Demon until the end of the 2017 season.
Good for the Dees future!

Any idea when the R23 dates/times will be confirmed? I'm going on a bucks weekend to GC and we're hoping to catch GC vs. WCE.

Last year they announced it on July 30.

No idea if it will be the same time or different this year though.

Just on the Sunday night footy thing. They say crowds have been a flop but TV ratings good. Surely if they want that TV spot they can occasionally have a 4:40 game in the west

Tipping and a little bit of coin on the Suns for me, IDIG.

Who're you leaning towards mate? Got myself a nice little 2 tip lead in the work tipping at the moment!

Still deciding but was originally leaning the pies.

Currently 4th and 5 games behind the two leading. 3rd is one point ahead of me so looking to peg him back first which will cover me and my misses entry fee then starting trying to gain on the 2 leaders.

Hmm, if it's as much as a 50/50 as most think it is, then maybe the best strategy is to try and tip the opposite of what you think 3rd place tipper will tip! Unless you're confident you'll catch them by the end of the season, of course!

Third's actually been tipping really erratically lately. Tipping outside after outsider so must be trying to catch up to the leaders which is good for me i suppse.

Sam Jacobs is the only non midfielder who is now priced over 600k. Boomer Harvey is priced at 599.9k, so he's just under LoL.
