I had to mute him. His West Australian bias was ridiculous and general tone was obnoxious. He’s a DH He was on Perth radio the other day saying he’s returned to his childhood and gone back to being a Cats supporter, because he was only a West Coast player and never a supporter. Since he’s stopped playing he’s returned to being a boy from Geelong Shows you his logic 1

They’ll put more effort into him tonight This reminds me of a famous quote from James Hird. Once after another excellent game he was asked who was tagging him? he replied - " Don't know - did I have a tag..? " He wasn't being smart - just had no awareness of taggers and played his usual game. That's Clarry. Out of control tonight, again. 4 2

I wonder how much the teams have changed. The teams have changed substantially since then. For both, only 12 from that night are playing. Our team was: FB: Jetta, O McDonald, Lewis HB: Salem, Frost, Hibberd C: vandenBerg, Oliver, Harmes HF: Melksham, T McDonald, Brayshaw FF: Hannan, Weideman, Neal-Bullen F: Gawn, Jones, Petracca I: Viney, Spargo, Tyson, Fritsch Their team was: FB: Kolodjashnij, Henderson, Stewart HB: Bews, Taylor, Tuohy C: Blicavs, J Selwood, S Selwood HF: Menegola, Ablett, Kelly FF: Parfitt, Hawkins, Henry F: Abbott, Dangerfield, Duncan I: Menzel, Murdoch, C Guthrie, O'Connor Although they'd be at 15 if they could, as they'd be playing Stewart, Parfitt and O'Connor if they were fit. 3

Clarry has been getting lots of media attention due to his great late season form, and he destroyed them a few weeks ago. They’ll put more effort into him tonight, so we need others to break the game open. Perfect night for Trac to regain his most damaging form and kick a few goals. He put on a clinic last time they met. Its interesting Trac is always touted as the star because I really think it is usually Oliver who does the most damage. In the last final against cats in 2018...Viney played a ripper. I believe our midfield will dominate tonight. 1

Thanks very much for this Titan. Melkshams 2018 form was terriffic. Weid was firing then too but Id take bbb over him. Anb and Fritta most improved. Jackson and Kozzie the wow factor. Trac and Oliver have gone to a new level. Jetta and Lewis probably the biggest outs but with May, Rivers and Lever... Our backline is so much better. Edited September 10, 2021 by leave it to deever

A couple of weeks back i decided to watch Matrix. I hadn't seen it since its release. Has held up remarkably well, both in terms of its story (simple and classic sc fi), design and use of CGI. Often films from that period (2000s) that use CGI look incredibly dated but Matrix still look amazing. In part becuase they stayed simple, and of course used the classic king fu movies cables so well for the fight scenes I then watched the second one - Matrix Revolutions. It was better than i remembered it being, albeit over the top visually and the story getting too convoluted and operatic. And the CGI did look a bit dated Being a completist, and in preparation for Resurrections, I thought i might as well watch the third in the series - Matrix Reloaded, a film i have never seen. Simply awful. The story is a complete mess, it is padded out with horrible action sequences, the CGI is impenetrable and the sound design almost gave me an aneurism. And to top it off, i had forgotten it (and the second one) was filmed in Sydney at Fox studios. So the b grade Aussie actors that pop up in it kept distracting me. As sci fi fan i'm looking forward to Matrix Resurrections - but i I hope it is a return to form. 1

I'd take that with a huge grain of salt, but I wouldn't be upset if his mail is accurate. Went out and grabbed some lunch yesterday and the guy behind the counter always wants to talk about the Dees (think he’s a blues man), he’s really pumped for us to get a flag but the funny thing was the other lady he was serving us a Cats fan. She said she really wanted us to win the flag, it was amazing. 4
