He can become the next Pope or Dalai Lama but he can never make amends for what he did to Geoff Southby...

He doesnt need to, he just needs to fix our footy dept so we can win more than we lose and play finals. He could have king  hit Doull for all I care.

Life is about today, just as it was yesterday.  Or the decades before.  Sorry GTC, [member=57]ElwoodBlues1[/member] is right.  Don't want the mongrel dog

Having Balme in a Navy Blue CFC logo Polo at Ikon Park is selling your soul, no premiership is worth losing your dignity.

I'd prefer Balme to a convicted drug cheat in a CFC polo.
