These “what they’re saying” are my fave so the lack of both “ we’ll be rooned” and “we’ll beat them” posts from the West is terribly disappointing

I reckon most MCC members aren’t trimming the Balvenie and wagyu budget and Netflix in the face of our current inflationary pressures and 0.25 RBA OCR target increase

I smell hubris!! 👀👀👀

Knowing us, Cunnington will come back, have 55 possessions, kick 11 goals, and we’ll win with a point after the siren. Kicked from right in front in the goal square. MFCSS strikes again 👀😂💪🤷💙❤️

He’s actually a really smart cat. Listen to his Tim Ferris interview

So you’re not a fan then.

This - after cairns let’s run them off their feet

Yep like I keep posting -> https://bjsm.bmj.com/content/54/19/1174

How’s Corsica? High on my todo list along with Sardinia. Perhaps when we park up in Nice next time post Carcasonne, Cadaques, Mont Ventoux (my spiritual home in France).

Bedford needs his nasty mo’ back!! Played well. Lucky the Hawks kicked poorly - disappointing to lose % but take the 4 points. That’s the first time in a long time in a game that close I wasn’t truly concerned which was weird

What part of covid is nonsense?

This is going to get very messy very quickly Reinfections aren’t even a question (to the comments “I believe it’s possible”). It’s happening right now. Most states don’t publish data on it (some don’t even record it). Not yet anyway. Victoria I think does, with IIRC 10k reinfections but I didn’t look at the breakdowns by variant, time lags etc. Infection doesn’t confer immunity forever either. With the new BA.4 and new 2.x.x.x (forgot its exact strain), expected to become the dominant strains really quickly, and with their infectiousness at the same level as measles (which should alarm everyone given vaccines aren’t sterilising), things are going to get a little wild. Not sure what the AFL can do. What happens if an entire best 22 is knocked out. At some point too, I wonder if we’ll need to consider getting away from the idea a player will have mild/no symptoms then hit the track again right away. This seems to imply a measure of caution may be needed: https://bjsm.bmj.com/content/54/19/1174 On a personal level, masks are probably a prudent precaution when in public. Be interesting to see how things progress with the Brace TB vaccine trial vs Covid goes and whether prophylactics like the Heparin nasal spray start to come into play. Or the US Army one.

Then there’s this from the BJSM https://bjsm.bmj.com/content/54/19/1174

They’ll win this by a goal or somesuch when we should already be 9 goals ahead jesus wept

Don’t forget Punch which is a bit Deakinesque I’m reading Brett’s The Enigmatic Mr Deakin at present. It’s fabulous.

Wonderful so you’ll be calling for “sack that man” and proclaiming same next time #amirite

Can’t wait for BBB return

Back to my earlier point it’s been putrid all year it has ever been thus, but 🤷

Tokenism lul wut? jesus wept We literally see just-as-bad umpiring every week she just happens to be making some bad calls in a short period nothing to do with her s3x

Her umpiring had been awful Nothing to do with her sex, it doesn’t make her an awful woman at all just like bad male umpiring doesn’t make them awful men - just putrid umpiring

Umpire Eleni should stop trying to turn the game jesus wept back to the twos

Fair dinkum the umpiring this year - all games not just ours - is putrid
