The players have had their turn and now it’s time for the coaches. Who is on the AFL coaches’ pretty list? Well, only three are worthy.
(Yes, I know they are not all bachelors but it’s more effective to say they are!)
Bachelor Number One:
Dean Laidley – The prettiest coach of them all. Ex-North Melbourne coach who goes down in pretty history for being the most adorable when answering questions in press conferences. He looks pretty fine in royal blue and you can’t look past the fluffy texture of his light brown hair which has a flamboyant kick in the fringe.
At 43 years old he still manages to be (thanks to Gigs for this):
DEAN CORY LAIDLEY= EYE CANDY I ADORE
If there ever is to be a remake of ‘Smooth Criminal’ I would nominated Laidley for the main role!
“You’ve been hit by
you’ve been struck by
A smooth criminal “
Bachelor Number Two:
Paul Roos – The smooth smiling Sydney Swans coach has a certain prettyness about him.
Not many people look good in blood red but Roosy manages to pull it off.
Definitely the Tom Cruise of the AFL in my opinion. Even their surnames rhyme! Roos, Cruise! His impulsive shouting when hoisting the Premiership cup was almost as good as the Oprah couch jumping “I love Kate!!!”
Overall it wouldn’t hurt to have him star in the next Peter Jackson’s commercial if ya know what I mean!
Also, the fact that he was Australian Father of the Year in 2008 highlights his potential as a family man.
Bachelor Number Three…
Mark Harvey. As the huggable coach of the Dockers, Mark Harvey proves that purple is pretty! Having coached the Dockers proves the strength of patience as his main value.
Also a man of compromise who likes to look at the other side. Evidence? Tarrant is in defence. What more evidence do you need? LOL
With his eyes, Mark Harvey is pretty enough not the get the heave-ho!

Although I can only speak as a straight man, I rate your call 1/3. And a couple of those blokes are seriously fugly.
;)
Hahahah lol
well u did say u are a ‘straight man!’
:)
“He looks pretty fine in royal blue and you can’t look past the fluffy texture of his light brown hair”
That line is just spew-worthy!
lmaoo yes but its TRUE!
its hilarious how sensitive fellas are to this stuff! :)
i am having a good laugh
:| you already know my response to this..oh what the hell, DANNI HE HAS A WIFE AND KIDS!!
RESPONSE TO JOSH’S COMMENT ABOUT LAIDLEY-
i know!!!!
lol
Im not gonna shut up about it until you admit he’s fugly
lol Josh face the facts! im not going to say that! firstly because it contradicts the list and secondly because HES PRETTY!
At just 31 years old (and single), surely Brad Scott is in with a show? I endeavored to cover this meaty issue earlier in the year here: http://roobeauty.wordpress.com/2009/10/06/is-brad-scott-the-hottest-afl-coach/
RE- Comment 9
lol hahahhah :)
well to be honest if i had rated his looks as a player then i would have had him on my pretty list. There is also the factor that i have not yet seen him in action as a coach.
But i still stick to my list because Laidley was a spunk even back in his Collingwood days. :)
He was not!
YES HE WAS!! :)
i couldnt contain my squealing when i watched that replay of the Collingwood vs North match and i saw Laidley in the Collingwood coaches boz! :)
Your a troubled child..
status- on a computer at officeworks, its a great one as well
hahhaha lol did u get a shampoo enterance when u walked in steve?

Can’t wait for Tsonga – Federer tomorrow, i hope Tsonga wins
FFS! If you come to the footy you’ll see a different me! :P
EXCUSE ME…NO WAY!!
Federer is NUMBER ONE!!
and he has Hawt hair!
Well I better go, I have to get myself ready for 2mro and practice a few hair styles for my photo, pack my bag ect ect.
Night
You practice hairstyles??
Bye, sweet dreams Pendlebury bear
Cya Danni,
Josh do me a favour and never refer to that link again lol.
When do you start footy training?
Night Danni.
Sleep with your head dangling off the bed, then you won’t wake up with bed hair.
Gotta love Warwick :)
We had a training run last night (i didn’t go 8) ) but i’m guessing we’ll start in about a months time. I’ve started tennis again, but not playing this weekend.
That’s not such a bad idea Adam…
Did anyone else hear about how a woman Twittered during giving birth??
Really? it would have been intresting to see what she said lol.
AAAAAH!
Just noticed then, Andy Murray can open his mouth enormously wide!
Was that when he celebrated his amazing shot? He looked pretty stupid doing that
How was school kids? Hahaha :P
Has anyone checked out the Ultimate 22 application on the AFL website? Its pretty good
school was great, I loved it
:| :O
who’s laughing now? hahahahaha
Steve are you okay??
Anyway here’s the link to that thing
http://www.afl.com.au/offseason/ultimate22/tabid/15690/default.aspx
I’m wonderful, yeah I just did a Melbourne team with that thing. Gee, if the Dees are all fit, the selectors have a really tough job for round 1. I did
Oh Josh, im sorry I left suddenly at 9:00 last night, I had to
Yeah my team for the Dees was pretty hard, ended up having Scully on the bench.
Yeah i figured, i cancelled the quiz you were in lol
good on ya
I’m gonna get smashed against you :|
nah, it depends what the questions are
Questions for pre-schoolers so far..
yeah, jeez I hate FG
hey people!
school was good! :)
hope i can say the same for my hair in the photos, i tried my best. lol
we even took a massive year level photo.
i had so much makeup on every one was like…”danni, whoa with the makeup!” lol
i keep putting it on until i changed from WHITE to almost normal colour. lol
im in 12D i have never been in D and now i will never be in A. i have been 3 times in C.
I’ve been in 10 hegarty, ive been in hegarty 3/4 times
I’m in*
I looked up my school in the HS today, mine is crap :( haha
Feel old being in year 12 Danni? 8)
cools lol.
well i better go and study.
get use to it fellas you wont be hearing from me as much :(
cya
:)
What’s with 10 hegarty and 12D and 12A? At my school its just normal year 10
because we have more than one class you idiot
Jeez settle down.
Probably coz you got a million people at your school, haha what a contrast between that and the Waaia school, which has 40 students
40???? Nah ours has 1,300 odd
Other schools in my area has about 17 students i think. The schools are roughly the size of an average barn though 8)
Hahaha Josh, you probably think that 1,300 is half the population of melbourne
No, no i don’t think that. 1,300 is roughly the population of Numurkah.
its probably the population of my street
actually, I think thats an over exaggeration lol- dent st only has about 100 houses.
Idiot
well, 13 people might left in every house, mine has 10 already
The Dees had an intra-club match this morning at Casey fields, Johnson, Spencer, Meesen and Jamar all sat out the game with injuries so Martin was pretty much the only ruckman playing
Martin will be playing Ruck for the whole NAB Cup.
Looks like i might be going to an AC/DC concert in Melbourne in a couple of weeks.
what day is it on?
Thursday, damn might have to miss school :|
no no no, thursday is good, I was afraid it was friday or saturday and you’d have to miss the footy
Its not on the same weekend as our game, and its a day before the NAB Cup starts. But not sure if im going yet
I’ll miss the footy show!!
yeah I know, but I was still afraid you’d miss West coast V bombers, adel v port and hawthorn v richmond
the footy show doesn’t start till the week before the season starts doesnt it?
Great to see that Lloyd is a life member of the AFL now.
Josh, did you spot the mistake in the article on the AFL website?
I didn’t read it, i will now.
Actually yeah i think it starts NAB Cup Grand Final week.
yeah I think your right. gotta go for dinenr
Easy mistake to see, he didn’t play 300 matches.
Have some nice tea.
Has anyone seen the video of how David Hale crashed into the fence at training? Pretty terrifying, for me anyway.
i had a nice dinner. yeah he only played 270. Im off for a bit of BYC now.
I’m gonna work on a Dees pre-season preview tonight
Hey guys,
Just finished a piece on the history of the Pre Season.
Yeah the Footy Show doesn’t begin until the week of the NAb Cup Grand Final.
Gee I wish I could go to the ACDC concert!!!!
I’d rather go to the footy show, tell ya what if you get tickets to the footy show i’ll swap ya Damo lol.
I sent a new piece last night, can’t wait for it to be up
my scoresheet piece isnt going up till Feb 1st for some reason
Who the hell wouldn’t want to go to an ACDC concert?
The one thing I prefer about the preseason to the regular season is that I’m less unhappy when the preseason’s over.
Haha true that Adam.
I’ve never really been into them, i like a lot of their songs though. But i’d love to go, just for the fact that i saw AC/DC live.
I totally understand that Josh.
Personally the band I’d want to see live most is Iron Maiden though…
Deal! you can basically watch every minute of the Footy Show on Youtube anyway.
I’ve never heard of an Iron Maiden song, but they’re pretty big at my school with all the emo’s and goth’s.
Has anyone seen the David Hale video? Pretty scary stuff
I don’t mind ACDC, I like a few of their songs
Jeez the odds are going pretty well for Tsonga on the home page..
Josh where’s the David Hale video on?
http://forum.theanimalenclosure.com/showthread.php?t=37736
That link might work
jeez, that video was really scary, I feel so sorry for him
Does everyone love my signature on my posts in that link? 8)
Yikes.
Are you BarneyRoos20?
Yeah he was lucky nothing serious came of it, the photographers just wanted a good shot they didn’t care about his well-being lol.
Pretty typical of photographers really.
Josh you’ve got the same sig in SF, demonland is a better forum site
Yeah i am Adam.
If you look closely a teammate pushed him when he marked it, but it didn’t really influence what happened.
The site looks very similar to Bigfooty.
Yeah, no wonder i hate it. Superfooty Forum is much better, you should join Damo and Adam
And you should also join because im looking for someone smart to go against in a quiz..
yeah they should lol.
Steve its unfair that you have slow internet at the time i beat you in the quiz, we should rematch when it gets fast again
Speaking of Bigfooty, here’s something very, very funny.
Status – Listening to Genghis Khan
Shit, I forgot to post the link I was about to post then.
I dont have slow internet yet, it was just stuffing up at the time
plus im not on the laptop now, on my main computer everything always loads really quickly
http://www.bigfooty.com/forum/showthread.php?t=324627
Really? Steve loses the quiz!
Hmmm now I don’t know who is smarter lol.
Damo, he won cos he was quicker, not because he’s smarter
3rd time lucky Adam? Lol
They were hard questions too, except the first one: Who wears number 18 for Fremantle. I got it right too 8)
I wasnt even on the thread 2 minutes after that question was posted lol. They were crap questions though, and Josh won 2-1 in a 3 question series
McPharlin.
hahaha that thread’s hillarious
Fair enough Steve.
lol supercoach cards?
Hahahaha what a noob lol.
Funny if his team of cards won Supercoach lol
I used to play that game with the trading cards. I still have quite a collection of them under my bed or somewhere. Cost a fair bit of money.
That same guy Jeffrey did some other really stupid threads. Search them if you want Although he’s probably taking the piss, it’s funny. :D
I got a collection of footy cards on my bedroom door, but the ones along the top are starting to fall off. Leigh Montagna is currently hanging by a thread, literly.
I’ve got Dees cards on my door
Who cares 8)
A BLOODY DEES SUPPORTER THATS WHO BLOODY CARES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
whos watching the cricket??? Afridi 22 off 5 balls!
Last i saw it was 5/99, i laughed.
he hit a 2 and end of over hes still 24 off 6
Dustin Martin commented on one of my Facebook photos…
which one?
Really? Damn I must’ve miseed it, hopefully Afridi will sky one for the Aussies sake.
Gee I really should get Facebook.
…or so I thought. I got a notification saying that, but it was a fake.
he hit 2 massive 6s and two hooks that flew over the keepers head for 4
yeah thats a spam thing, that happens to me too
Yeah i get those notifications all the time
Yes Damo, sign up now :P plenty of Blues’ players to be connected with haha
Ryan Harris was close to a hattrick!
haha i’m trying to think of a joke with that but I can’t think of one.
oh!! Afridi out for 29 off 10
What did the elephant say to the naked man?
I don’t think i wanna know the answer to that Adam lol
Did you guys hear about Travis Varcoe’s myspace page?
A footballer with Myspace? Now THAT’S news!
Yeah I’ve heard that before Adam.
Apparently Carlton don’t have a major sponsor yet, probably just a silly rumour.
What happened to his page?
yeah tell us the punch line Adam
Just googled it:
http://www.news.com.au/afl-club-axes-stars-offensive-myspace-blog/story-e6frfkp9-1111114216265
What did the elephant say to the naked man?
How the hell do you breathe through that thing!
Another quiz series with me and Josh: 3-0 whitewash to me!
hahahaha
Hahahaa
Im never versing you in a quiz again Steve :|
hmmm now Steve has the upper hand.
They were all oldies question, one of them was from 1899!
yeah I wasnt sure with that one I had to look it up
CHEATER!!
Nah wikipedia didn’t load quickly enough for me with that question :|
Here’s a question for you guys:
Which AFL player currently leads the league in consecutive games without missing a match?
Yeah I still have doubts on Steve’s knowledge, whenever I ask him a question it takes 4 minutes for an answer.
I didnt use wikipedia.
Brett Kirk
Josh, go on to the quiz forum your hosting a quiz
Yeah Damo sometimes I have some doubts myself
I was thinking of a question Steve, maybe we should bring that quiz onto the Almanac, it’d be easier to work on here.
I like that idea Josh.
ill start, who kicked the first goal in the 1999 grand final?
I’ll have a stab and say Shannon Grant.
Brett Ratten
Correct, Damo
Scoreboard:
Damo-1
Adam-0
Josh-0
Which Fitzroy player got 43 possessions in Freo’s first league win?
Ahhh Anthony Mellington?
Woah woah woah i didn’t know this was going on.
I have no idea lol
Don’t know either.
Simon Atkins lol.
Nup, he used to be a bulldog before he went to fitzroy
Did you look that up Damo?
correct
Can i just suggest we move to another thread so we don’t have to keep going all the way to the bottom?
Yeah I cheated take 1 point off!
I looked it up too, but I figured since I’m looking it up I shouldn’t answer it.
