Do you really want to go back to the Smorgon/Collins days when we were on the verge of tin rattling?


You won't find a more pro-capitalism guy than me. But you have offered a false choice: penury or corrupt, amoral and tacky oligarchy. It doesn't have to be like that.

I think he should be banned from the club for life on the grounds of taste alone.

The club cafe and swimming pool named after him to immortalise him.
Love that story!
It's not the Greg Williams cafe
John Nicholls pool.
Craig Bradley swimming pool.
It's the doctor Geoffrey Edelston cafe and pool.

Basically tells the story if what our club is today.
Keep it up fellas!

I was at the pre season event last year when he was announced as a life member. I felt sick.

I'm pretty sure for a while there Dick Pratt's portrait was the only picture in the board room. A constant reminder.
