Farewell Jesse Hogan
No, but they've certainly not even been close to being grand final worthy teams since 2015 in the Hawks case and 2013 in Geelongs. Bit of a stretch to plan our future premiership attack on a forward line that defeated them both in 2018 Im beginning to think there may have been some truth in the Clarko quip about dancing fron the rooftops.

Farewell Jesse Hogan
Surely going deep into September means being competetive against any of the best 3 teams (WCE, Coll or Rich) in a prelim All we did was beat Geelong and Hawthorn.

Coronavirus: AFL & MFC
I know the pay issue is important, but it really highlights for me why ive turned off almost all afl media last year and already this year; Barely any discussion of games, and instead footy politics. Where were the 'on the couch' game graphics and behind the goal vision from round 1? Instead just a round table discussion on pay disputes. What a bore.

POSTGAME: Rd 01 vs West Coast
Maybe im going blind, but i thought Viney and Oliver combined to make plenty of fumbles and errant handballs that led to turnovers that cost us in the first quarter and put us on the backfoot. Viney played very well for the next 3 quarters, but i swore i cursed a few times at Viney in the first, hunting the ball but undoing the good work by disposal. Any one with a replay can confirm or not? I think ive just lost all enthusiasm and excitement for the bullish chaotic ball winning in the contest, when i know our collective skills will botch the end result moving it forward. Excitement just invites frustration, over and over. Numb to it all really now.

Isnt 5g constrained by full network load, whereas fibre has an almost infinite speed potential with hardware scaling up? Im no techy, but thats what ive heard when 5g is brought up, often by conservatives to explain away the fibre to copper node mess that the LNP has forced on (most of) the country.

Didnt he say and im paraphrasing "He's not doing it for family reasons, he's in it for the money" about Lever? Now look at his motivations for playing and nonchalance about spread of infection. Someone tweet that to him!

Your lack of humility makes you susceptible to the entertainment of an over abundance of conspiratorial ideas that make you feel warm and fuzzy about being the smartest most lateral creative thinker in the room, so quick to tell others that they're stuck in boxes. Its healthy to use some of that scepticism you think you have on yourself from time to time.

You've proven my point, youre the last to consider that you may not be as free a thinker as you believe.

Sounds like widely known geopolitics. Russia bioengineering a virus is a bit of a leap from that. The funny thing about the 'im a lateral free thinker amidst a sea of sheep' types is that theyre the last to consider that some of their theories and beliefs might not actually be as freely formed as they think. Plenty of nefarios misinformation campaigns out there to divide everyone into their own little echo chambers of thought where extremism boils and then bubbles up out in the world.

Italy has closed all but supermarkets and pharmacies, we could be at that quarantine stage within weeks if cases continue increasing and its not kept under control

The panic doctors are causing creates more problems than a life threatening illness to immuno compromised people? What are you smoking? Doctors are promoting that we take caution in eliminating unnecessary travel and being hygenic, its the blase attitude of people not taking this seriously that are the reason why this illness has spread and continues to spread. People compromising the health of those around them. "Just deal with it when people get sick" is the atttude that will overload health systems all at once and to the point where people will unneccessarily die from being turned away. In affected areas of Italy, doctors are having to choose who to give life saving equipment, respiratory aids and beds to, doctors and nurse shortaged, workers getting infected, infecting their families etc. Ive read reports from people over there, and they have a full lockdown now with only supermarkets and pharmacies open to avoid more spread. France and Spain now following suit. Demonland is living up to its name with all the climate change deniers and eugenics proponents in here lately.

We might even do them by 10-15 goals. That'd rattle em.

His call by call commentary is very excessive and a tad annoying, but he was a decent analyst on sportsday on 3aw for a decade with gerard healy and now sen afternoons he keeps it to pure footy topics without too much ego or fluff like others. i get the hate, but i think he deserves a fair defense for his radio work.

Maybe we should just, you know, win the premiership and reap all the associated dividends from that. ?

What is missing to win a flag?
That segment was a mess. MacClures hard [censored] act is neither funny nor relevant anymore and certainly doesnt do a good job of disguising that he knows very little about the game. Its a joke that they cant find someone with some insight and depth to dissect the teams each week. To be fair, i think ridiculing our worst ever conversion of inside 50s ratio stat and finding us untrustable is fair enough. I dont know why they need to keep repeating the obvious, that goodwin will be sacked if things dont go well. Just surface level observations. The contrasting bullishness for NM and Rhys Shaw was even more absurd. Whats next on 360? Dunstal and Derm right? A real tired selection of ex footballers. I think ill tape it and fast forward through the chaff for the rest of the year.
