There is a thread on here, Angus Brayshaw Media Conference I certainly hope you're right and I hope he plays his days out with the Melbourne Footy Club

Have you listened to Gus's media conference? It's just a gut feeling but it seems to me that he would relish the opportunity to go to Freo and play with his brother. He seems to love the lifestyle in Perth and he was effusive about Optus Oval. I did also read on here, can't remember which thread, but a poster said Gus indicated he would like to go over to Perth to play at some stage.

From the Freo site. "Cerra made the step up and turned his potential into genuine AFL talent as he dominated a handful of games, including Fremantle’s wins against Hawthorn in round 11 and Melbourne in round 16. Playing mostly on the wing or as an inside midfielder, Cerra did things with the football that most AFL players couldn’t, with his spectacular goal against Melbourne just one example of his ability to execute by foot. He ranked second at Fremantle for tackles and at 20 years of age earned a third-place finish in the Doig Medal". Not saying I want to recruit him but this differs from your assessment of him. The only point I guess I want to make is that it's evident that Gus loves in the West and as he said, he has family over there, including his brothers and he was born over there. He talked about his love of the Stadium and the surface and from what he said it's only a matter of time before he returns. So if the opportunity to return there comes up in a trade for Cerra, he may put his hand up and suggest a swap. No one loves Gus more than I do, i've always been a fan and I'd hate to see him go but it's just a matter of time by the sound of it. He loves the Dees as well, but sometimes Family can be stronger than friends at a footy club.

I noticed with Alir Alir in the few games I saw him play that he would start the first quarter like a train but would drift out of the game the longer it went, perhaps a fitness issue.. Admittedly it was a small sample but just my observation.

The kids will get the chance, over the next ten years to play finals, no need to rush them. Give Jonesy a chance to be medical sub and put him on with ten minutes to go when we are well in front.

To be quite honest he looked completely unfazed by the fact it was a final, he looked completely comfortable out there. Just another day at the office.

It's not just the players you have it's the system, most players selected to play AFL are reasonably good but if a club doesn't have the right system they'll fail. We had a great team in 94 but had to rely on individual brilliance to win games, now all players play their part. All the players know what's required of them and they know that the whole team doesn't rely on them to win the game for us. That's how good clubs do it, it's just taken us a few more years to understand it.

The look on Mayzie's face tells it all, he has a look of inner peace now, as opposed to the look of absolute despair he wore when he played for the Suns. I often thought he was going to cry and he looked like he was carrying the weight of the side on his shoulders.

Anything Joe does, looks stupid, if they were looking for the AFL moron of the year, Joe would win hands down.

To be honest I doubt that that will change his mind, fortress WA. Anyway, if we can't get to the GF in Perth this year, we can watch the next two at the G

Also Viney earns his free kicks the honest way, with good old fashioned, hard at it football, not like that [censored] Matthieson or Weightman who kicked 4 goals, all from very suss free kicks for the Bullies today. As a matter of interest, I watched a fair bit of that game today and I doubt there was more than a half dozen legit handballs, all up, in the game.

Weid can get his hands on the ball, which is the first requirement, unfortunately he can't hold his marks. He seems to me to have his palms both facing out in front of him, towards the ball and slaps at the ball instead of grabbing it. It will come together for him but it may be too late.

Perhaps The Devil (Demon) Inside would have been appropriate

In 50 years time they probably will be able to look back and remember it, unfortunately they probably won't be able to remember what they had for breakfast in the morning. The mind does that to you.😀

I was at that game and we should have won by a street, but at that ground and with a strong wind that day, we struggled. We were kicking to the end where all the goals were kicked, so there was a certain inevitability about it, but it was very late in the quarter when he kicked the winning goal. He was also at the helm when we got rid of Woey and copped a lot of flack for that. But he was a very good person.

I was 16 at the 64 GF and 12 at the 60 GF, people ask me why I missed the other finals and I remind them that it was very difficult to get tickets to a Grand Final in those days. Funnily enough, before the start of the season, a friend of mine got a football card with Tassie Johnson on it and gave it to me. We talked about Tassie, I knew he'd never seen him play so I told him how good he was. I put it on my desk and it still sits there now, I'm frightened to move it and he keeps reminding me to leave it exactly where it is.

How do you get the replay on the AFL site? I can't see where it is, can you help?

Maybe they should have a bbq out the front of the vaccine centres or perhaps convert Bunnings in to a centre. I've had both AZ jabs and felt nothing and had no after effects, same with the other staff in my office.

There was a few of us who were keen, especially those that went to the pre-draft meeting that the club ran. We got to see footage that wasn't readily available and that JT and his department had. He looked sensational and it was obvious that he was going to be the goods but those there had to sign a confidentiality agreement so we couldn't disclose any of this. It was a certainty that we were going to take Kozzi as well.

You believe what you want to and make up your own mind as to how much, not much is. I'm not playing silly games with you.

The crazy woman in charge of the Health of all Queenslanders is the one with the gun.

I believe the reduction in efficacy is about 1or 2 %, the opposite is far more dangerous.

Actually you can reduce the time between jabs to 8 weeks, I did.

AZ has been available by the truckload for a while and has also been available for those under 60 for a while. Andrews has been pushing AZ too, the only one who hasn't is that [censored] health advisor up in Qld and she changed her mind a day after saying she wouldn't allow it.
