But I don't see much similarity between the '06 Cats and '12. Talent wise you could have split their list in half and they both would have made the eight.

In hindsight perhaps - not many people would have rated the cats list as highly in 06. Everything changes when you win a premiership or three...

Possibly. Nothing would bring me more joy than to have a big chunk of our guys become great players.

I think we should find out what the Weapon is being paid, and then offer him double to stay at Essendon*.

I don't think his secondment is a laughing matter.

Malthouse and Thompson co directors of coaching with Roos to be actual coach.

How many coaches have we secured for next year?

Don't forget Boo-urns, he'd be Roos' understudy

Good call. Wouldn't want to get him confused with our current assistant.

I'd call him 'Darling' and 'love of my life' if he gave us a flag.

We could re-name him: the Wup, the whip, the whap. It kweeps on gwowing wegs. Wonderful.

And then maybe we should get Harry O'Brien, wear a rug as a poncho in the centre square and beat a drum.

I'm sure I've read before that it's actually 'Bomba' after a character in Tarzan...& was a nickname he got in childhood that stuck.

Was a Carlton supporter too IIRC

Could that be Ken "Bomba" Sheldon you're thinking of CK ?

He just ruled out coaching anyone ever. Pressed by Robbo his response "I'm done wont coach" .
