#30 Darcy Moore

[K]

Darcy appeared on Ch. 7's Talking Finals tonight...

But didn't catch it all.

Peter and Darcy; real lump in your throat type stuff for us oldies.
Excelled in his post match speech - again.

Interesting interview with Darcy on radio national with pies supporter Patricia Karvalas.

You may need to listen to it in the ABC app - not sure.

I've lost interest in Ginnivan and won't be going to his thread.
I'm more interested in Darcy Moore's thoughts on how he was affected and the team was affected, and the fans.

‘What are you doing?!’ Skipper’s hilarious reaction to Ginnivan exit amid ‘brutal’ trade reality

Yeah caught that last night, now there is a young man brought up right!

Every word out if his mouth is gold. He has a huge huge future, even after footy. I reckon he could take AFLs top job.

Amazing attitude. Every game I see him with Pendles, still learning. I’ve noticed the same with Naicos, they hang with those they can learn from. And lead so respectfully. Humble. Honest.

These were kids brought up to appreciate the good that comes their way, but also, to do the work to get the absolute best out of themselves.


But about that hair!

^Yep, some serious quality lads at the club, that's for sure. Darcy's even got great one liners! What can't this team do?

[Pies4shaw]

Until we get to the end of off-season with no-one in prison or on serious criminal charges, we'll just take that question on notice.

[uuuuu..... The LoneSTAR]

^Doesn't matter if they are arrested or jailed,.... Only matters if its leaked

[Pies4shaw]

Yes, true that.

[i hate carlton]

How is his ankle? On a podcast pendles said it was dodgy going into the GF.
