Welcome Sam Banks

Sam was asked who at the club had surprised him the most after joining the club, and he said K-Mac. He said that when watching games on TV in Tasmania he could not appreciate the off-ball work that role players do, and that K-Mac plays his role better than anybody at the club. Sam wants to get his running power up to K-Mac's level, which he said was extraordinary. He's already put on 5 kg.

This kid is the perfect fit for our culture.

Although yet to be confirmed by Caesar, I believe Sam is back training with the main group and eyeing half a game in the VFL season opener.
I also hear our VFL team has another practice game this coming Friday at Casey Fields.
Another opportunity for Stack, Pickett, Dow and RCD to show their wares although if selected, the 6 day break may be too short to allow senior selection the following Thursday.

If any of these guys play round 1 it'll likely be off the sub bench at this stage.

Pickett is of most interest and disappointed for Syd that He's not ready to go.

Riley was flying in the pre season under Lambos wing just not in games, lets see if he can show something this week.

The fact Syd, Marlion, and Riley have been ousted from first 22 midfield calculations by Aarts with Graham and Lambert unavailable at this stage is somewhat concerning.

I had a project with Relationships Victoria. The CEO at the time was Mike Hunt and his CIO was Jeremy Bonking. Resilient characters.

Aarts not even close to any of those guys mentioned don't see anything in him.
 
I went to Primary School with a girl called Robyn Banks.

Seriously! Some people just shouldn’t be allowed to have kids.

I worked with a guy called Gary Roper. I agree some parents are just cruel to their kids.
 
What about the president of the World Anti-Doping Agency, his name is Richard Pound.

A mate went to school with a Michael Fiddler, he was known as, and answered to Mickey.

His last work was that bad he shredded it in disgust. Should probably try one of those paint by numbers folders to see if he can improve his out put.
But he made many millions in the process.
Was recently sold again by the original purchaser in its shredded state for a staggering amount (can't remember the figure ... But many millions)
 
Was a reasonably well known actor once called Roger Moore. His parents must have had a good sense of humour, but I am sure he lived up to his name.

Along similar lines was a well known singer by the name of Roger Daltrey who was handed a nice combination shagging/cheating on your missus name by his parents.
