When did it happen?
I can’t believe I missed it when I spend so much bloody time reading posts.
Was the 2nd account ‘Dustintime’ ?
I seem to remember him making reference to ‘learning a lot’ from TBR in the way of better understanding the rules.
I must know.
It was ‘Dustintime’, TBR then tried to claim it was his son’s account, which he’d setup to defend his father. They both disappeared soon after. Funny that.
On Gibcus, every time I see this thread pop up I hope it’s going to be good news. This guy is important to our future.
I can't recall TBH.
At the time i was heavily involved with a legal proceeding to take down a con artist and wasn't on here much, but i'm glad i didn't miss that. I needed the comedy relief.
The con artist actually just pleaded innocent to over 2000 charges late last month and is scheduled for trial April next year. They expect it to tie a jury up for the best part of 10 weeks. The rumour is that the innocent plea was just not to be behind bars during the festive season and he will change his plea after new years.
I think I started it P76 @tiger76 . I picked up on a post that Dustbintime had made where he referenced TBR in the first person. I jokingly replied that he had forgotten to switch accounts. TBR responded that he had no idea who dustbin was. One of the admins called him out on it and said TBR and Dustbin had the same IP address. TBR's defence was something along the lines of "I just checked and the account belongs to my idiot son".
I ended up doing a search for posts related to TBR last night and read all of the posts during the great outing.I think I started it P76 @tiger76 .

I was in tears.
Pride before the fall and all that…
Imagine having to completely change your body mechanics to avoid injury?
Might be fine in a training situation but in the heat of an AFL game muscle memory will be hard to hold back.
Can see why they're in no rush. I'm still tempering expectations tbh.

Doing the right thing in bringing on Josh slowly and sensibly to make sure his body holds up well. Will be good to see him back playing AFL again
They went into games early last year as fit as Me.
They took there eye off 'preparation and standards' to fast track another chance to win a flag.
We brought in Tarranto and Hopper on top of our 2022 list and finished bottom 4
Collingwood brought in Frampton Hill Mitchell & McStay and they win a flag.
They killed it over the summer Mitchell prepares in the same class as Tarranto prepares himself, elite and Collingwood spent the entire summer on outlasting the opposition. Run and running.
I cant not remember our group spending a week on running let alone the entire preseason.
It's the standards you set, we had a bad one and the results reflected that.
Gibcus bent down on that ball like he was 75 yr old no wonder his hammy snapped in half.
Whatever output Josh gives us from here on out will be a bonus.
Spot on
don't get me started on last year's preseason it was amateurish the coach was even there for the first month or so and you got a fitness and conditioning department with no idea.
