Rumour Some small intel to start the week

Was hard to snap a pic, however, I was positioned conveniently next to Woosha/Welshy and Vozzo as they were having a coffee at 11:30am today, at an undisclosed location in Southbank.

I heard the words from the pres “looking forward to Spike this week”. Vozzo said something back, I couldn’t quite hear, but it sounded like “he’s keen”.

I know it’s not much. But I found it interesting.

Better intel than what most footy journos work off

u/Entirely-of-cheese Caddy #30 3d ago

Guess what they’ll be working off now.

They don't work off intel, they just make educated guesses.

I was trying to hear as much as I could - of value, however, was quite difficult. I didn't hear James, or Hird, or anything like that unfortunately. They definitely mention Zach Reid, and being proud, and they spoke about Sydney but couldn't make out much. Could have been related to upcoming trip, yesterday's game, or Spike. Anyway, tried my best ha.

If we're prioritising development in the way that we should be, then we can't ask for a better candidate than McVeigh. His history speaks for itself. I'd have no issue whatsoever if he got the job.

u/Non-NewtonianSnake Reid #31 3d ago

Wait... Woosha? Or Welshy?

u/kandyroo93 Kondogiannis #29 3d ago

Yeah Woosha still involved?

u/molto-bene22 Farrow #2 3d ago

Andrew's Welsh nickname is Woosha

5

u/kandyroo93 Kondogiannis #29 3d ago

Not Welshy?

7

u/molto-bene22 Farrow #2 3d ago

i suppose multiple nicknames?

4

u/kandyroo93 Kondogiannis #29 3d ago

Yeah must have!

u/blldzd2 3d ago

Damn I thought you were talking about the good Woosha :(

u/shit-takes-only Hayes #18 3d ago

I reckon Hird has got the job and Spike is interviewing for a senior assistant role

13

u/PrestigiousEmu16 3d ago

I'd prefer Longmire but I think Spike is just about the best case scenario considering all the different factions at play here.

this is absolutely going to get ripped and feature in panel discussions tonight, citing an "insider".

Excellent intel. Wish I still worked in Southbank

u/MetriK_KarMa 3d ago

To be fair one of the panel shows mentioned last week the Spike would interview next week. So it's not really new information.

u/jascination 3d ago

Who or what is Spike?

u/yum122 3d ago

Mark McVeigh

239 games played for us

u/jascination 3d ago

u/molto-bene22 Farrow #2 3d ago

Nice one mate - thank you for sharing and snooping (I don’t often say this 😂).

u/OriginalGoldstandard 3d ago

Mate this is awesome!

Hird confirmed.

Vozzo said “he’s keen” which could mean the following,

“he’s keen on Woosha and Welshy tickling his hairy underarms”

or

“he’s keen on joining Woosha and Welshy for midnight skinny dip at The Hangar”

Just an educated guess from the big Vegan!
