Hope he gets better, I like Dima and he's had a tough time over the last couple of years. AFL news: Paul Dimattina in intensive care after reacting to Covid booster shot | news.com.au — Australia’s leading news site This will encourage those not Vaccinated to remain that way, not good.

I'm going to miss out because my partner planned a trip for us to Adelaide and I can't get out of it, we're driving and I couldn't let her drive all the way by herself. We have an AirBnB booked so we can't cancel that without the loss of all monies paid. I even looked at coming home the 4th and flying back the evening of the 5th. But the difficulty of getting an entry check would mean that I'd have to fly home go straight to a Covid testing centre fill out another application and have another covid test as soon as I get to Adelaide Airport, or quarantine till I do. As it is I had a test yesterday and theoretically, as soon as we cross the border I have to have another, I can wait till I get to my final destination, the Barossa Valley, I think. Who would have thought it would be that hard to go to another State.

How many times have you eaten out and wished you'd ordered the steak instead of the hamburger.

When does next season start? Whenever it is, I wish it were sooner.

Right hand facing? If you mean that, then remember Fritter is a left footer and it would favour him.

We've made some howlers over the years, especially with first round draft selections.

Well perhaps we could remove the 2 goals the bullies kicked in the second.

Should we ask him to change it, or just get a new player with that name?

This comment nearly caused me to shed a tear When his superstar friend Christian Petracca appeared to have the grand final at his feet, Gawn’s three-quarter time message to the ballistic midfielder was one of love: “I’m so proud of the man you’ve become.” As I said in another post, Max is like a big brother to all the players.

I've watched the PF a half a dozen times and with 6.15 to go Fritter is being chased by two Cats defenders and it appears to me that he gets the ball and throws it back on to the feet of the cats defenders and in doing so it propels the ball forward to Kozzi who kicks a goal. Has anyone else noticed this?

Nah, I drank enough in the preceding years, to more than make up for what I haven't drunk since. Went cold turkey, stopped drinking one day and haven't had a drink since, missed the company of the guys but not the drinking.

I stopped drinking about 30 odd years ago, but did give it a nudge when I was having a few and the beer of choice at the time was VB, I thought it was a great drop.

I think Howes will play games next year, maybe wing H/F, he looks like a very accomplished player to me. Nice to see he was stoked to be at Melbourne, it wasn't that long ago that recruits would have been praying that we didn't pick them up. I'm proud of what this club has finally achieved, destination club, Hell Yeah.

Isn't it about time this thread was taken off the football board and put on the General Board?

It wouldn't surprise me if this kid becomes a very good player for us, he seems to have an awareness and is always looking for an option. I'm very glad to see him on our list.

About 1.40 in he has a run down the wing and he reminded me of a young Robbie Flower the way he moved, very smooth.

I believe we are looking at the facility being built for the Women's World Cup, the State Government will build it and pay for it and we will take it over when the World Cup finishes in 2023. It may well be where car park F currently is, if not very close to that. That's the plan.

So if they don't get sick, do they get their money back? It's like putting someone in jail because you think they may commit a crime.

Well one thing, no one will be able to take their position for granted, there will be a contest for every spot. Wow, did I really say that, it would be the first time ever, at the club, you could say that, it's so hard to believe.

We might have to have Melbourne A and B sides, like the Australian cricket side did.

I was going to give you a face palm, but your last post is well balanced and quite fair. Just a bit more of that would be appreciated.

If he was at Melbourne he would have been given time to develop and would have had a much better chance to become the best player he could be, I doubt that will happen at the Gold Coast. Good luck at GC and remember we will always welcome you back in the future.

Got this footy card from a friend who happened upon it in a store near Kyneton and it's sat on my desk since he gave it to me, Tassie played in our last premiership in 1964

Now I know how to do it this is one I posted on another thread but it didn't show up either, a jumper signed Jack Viney and Brian Wilson who was there on the night. A premiership player and a Brownlow medalist.
