Week off strikes again..? -
Good match.

40 minute international call later... and I'm in!
-
30 minutes on hold with Ticketec now... I know my chances are slim, but they're 0% at this rate...
-
Ticketec saying my credit card has been blocked for security reasons and to contact the card issuer... card issuer says it's the first they've heard of it and everything should be fine...

Throughout the match you could hear the umpires repeatedly warning Hawthorn players about making contact with Oliver off the ball. They chose to ignore the warnings and got pinged.

Ouch! Kiss of death! I would not be popular at Christmas... might just apply solo.

I cannot for the life of me think of an easier 'open-and-shut case'... but they've completely botched it.

Not sure if this has been covered yet... Just received my Grand Final barcode int he mail today (Hong Kong). I am Priority 3 for the ballot, however my father and sister are Priority 2. The form says that if people want to sit together, you have to enter the ballot together. Does this mean that people with different priority level cannot sit together, or can we put our barcodes on the same booking and let the computer sort it all out..?

I’ll be having the Qantas app open and my finger hovering over the ‘book flight’ button the whole match.

It's a great stadium (though the inhabitant aren't ideal). Optus, along with the new Adelaide Oval seem to be great places for football and spectators. Puts the Docklands Stadium to absolute shame and shows what a bit of creativity can do.

Very slim I think. I believe Silver gets a go at them if the Golds don’t sell out first.

"It's a VFL conspiracy!"
Hopefully he can do an Open Mike or, even better, a Demonland podcast... would love to hear some of the stories and his thoughts on the club.
From MFC discard to MFC owner in the space of 10 years.
Nic article about Nev Jetta making his finals debut... only, that’s not Neville Jetta.
That was just so underwhelming. There was just no substance or depth to any of the questions or answers and I don’t think there was anything there that wasn’t already public knowledge. Something that surprised me was that when asked what he’d do differently, he replied he’d investigate, question and challenge the club’s decision to move on senior player at the end of 2011. He often referred to how young the list was that he inherited and lay the blame at the feet of the admin. At the end of 2011, we delisted or traded out: Matthew Warnock Addam Maric McNamara (rookie) and Cameron Johnston (rookie) Where is this mass culling of senior players that he referred to numerous times throughout the interview??? He then claimed that we brought in a significant number of young players for his first year, but in fact we brought in: Mitch Clark (mature) James Magner (mature) James Sellar (mature) Leigh Williams (mature) He claimed that he went for all out youth and knew it would be a long, slow rebuild as a consequence, but that does nothing to explain the following preseason bringing in: Rodan Byrnes Dawes Pedersen Gillies.
I simply cannot get my head around this one. I thought, in the limited times I've seen him play, that he has a lot of potential as a full time ruckman. This makes me wonder why he's not being hotly pursued by many clubs, why Nth is letting him slip away with Goldy in his twilight years, and why a ruck, who could be playing consistent AFL games next year, would come to a club where he is guaranteed to be second fiddle to the best ruck in the league... The only answer I can come up with is that I, and many other fans, have significantly overestimated his ability and potential output.
