Balmey didn't hold back last night in his appearance on The Front Bar when asked about Dusty now supposedly 'staying'. Basically said that's what the club has been saying for ages but the media refused to listen & basically said all the speculation was made up for clicks.
His book is excellent.
Really enjoyed it.
Some top shelf Collingwood bashing.

For those of you that are interested, this podcast is a chat between Andrew Rule and the bloke who wrote Balmy's book (Anston Cameron). Goes for about 38mins

Wonder how the big fella is trekking at Tigerland? Hope his health issues have been improving.
I've just been listening to his audio book & it's been very entertaining.
Pulls few punches as you'd expect. Doesn't have much time for Eddie, Micky M & SHocking these days.
The one thing that's been consistent at every club is what a calming, uniting influence he's been.
We've been very lucky to have the great man.

Yeah, I had this years ago. Never liked it, but medication's the only way to go otherwise you can't drive.
In 2020 was the first one. it triggered his weight loss. He's had several seizures since..
I think he stated the seizures are under control when he takes his medication. A couple of times away from home he hadn’t kept to his medication regime and had a reoccurrence
Could not agree more.
Currently reading his book and enjoying every page.
At the moment, he has just been appointed as Norwood coach and lost the GF by a few points.
Great reading from those who know him best.
Boy, was he one tough guy on the field back in the glory days of the 70's and early 80's.
But, a gentle giant off the field, and certainly a man of many parts.
We are very lucky to still have him on board.
Almost finished the book now.
He is currently at the Cats after leaving Collingwood.
Gee, the writers and Neil are scathing about Eddie Everywhere and Mick Malthouse.
From what I have read, it is being controlled with medication, which is good news indeed.
Just happened to pop Mince on.
Normally don't listen to his drivel.
Glad I did today.
He was at Fitness First in Richmond chatting to The Guru.
He is there for an epilepsy walking challenge.
Was awesome.
Spoke about everything,.
His condition, Dimma, trading period, Ooze, Kosi.
If you can find a podcast of it, do so.
What a star he is.

I heard it too. Well done Balmey. Good luck with the epilepsy man it's not easy. I keep forgetting he was Ooze's coach.
