  1. He is in the top 10 so is high!!
  2. Can't be fine without a ruck hitting the ball first on many occasions to a favourable spot in the centre.
  3. Are you speaking from experience or just not spoiling a good story with a mistruth OD. I can only say in over 20 years of domestic travel I have never been redirected or had to stay over because of a fault with Jetstar. I have I believe heard of some Jetstar International maybe two/three times leaving air passengers in Asia over that period. But nothing like you are asserting. As with most Airlines there has been a very small instance since Covid return of cancelled flights mainly due to lack of staff and Jetstar has experienced that which I was effected. Would be about once/ twice in 12 mths. But once again your penchant for a completely negative tone seems to have overridden and exaggerated the real truth again. I have over the same period travelled majorly with Tiger ( and Virgin) and it was never even what you assert Jetstar to be. Saved about $5000 with Tiger compared to Qantas prices also. Cheaper Airlines flights are always more liable to have slip ups and whatever class of passenger mostly recognise this when booking. Maybe you expect Qantas pre Covid standards and service with Jetstar's lower prices.
  4. Sorry Big Col you lost me in the first point. Too much complication for the average footy follower. PS Don't give up your potential day job as adviser to Tassie AFL. Four years seems about right for the complicated advice to be understood.
  5. Harry McKay says HI!
  6. What is your point DC ? It's logical on the front of the guernsey. It's nothing about the chest !! It's featuring what state is represented. A T is also looks good as well.
  7. Toby not Tony sorry !!
  8. Two narrow and almost on final siren wins over Hawks and a depleted Swans is a good reward for GWS. But it does not alter the fact that it's list is still in the very much " work in progress" mode. Especially without Sam Taylor on the injured list for a large part of the season. It's team as usual has its stars but most are not at the standard of 2019 except Toby Greene and now Coniglio has returned to near his best. Whitfield ( injury) Kelly ( form) Haynes ( form) are shadows of their previous best IMO. Himmelberg is good but spasmodic and Flynn promising a bright career in the future. They have holes in each line and on ball is very up and down with the other Greene possibly the most reliable each week. Admittedly Jesse Hogan has strengthened the forward line and Bedford may replace Hill in time. They have a chance vs Dogs but won't want to be four goals down again and expect to win. They are not the Pies. And they probably won't kick 17.5 again and Tony may not be BOG to give them a chance with his super talent up against a better back line than the depleted Swans.
  9. Too complicated and most teams are not deserving of playing 5/6 times from Mon to Wed. We need a rest for injury etc. and a chance to live a few days without footy. Too much of it will turn People off and it will be turned into a TV game more than we want and the AFL favour.
  10. No we need a further mid as depth not a flaky forward in the AFL.
  11. No one please not our full time forward answer. But get him those 100 games please. Sub fine.
  12. Why try and fix something that's not broke? Crazy! Fritta is so good because he is our designated 3rd or 4 th forward with a 3rd or 4th defender trying to outs kill some good to reasonable defenders . Most underrated forward in the AFL and so good he is OURS.
  13. Whatever both do this season they will double their output and skill in 2024. Very exciting prospects along with Howes and Laurie who has improved heaps.
  14. Would seem to me he will play a lot liked Fritta. But if he can lead properly he will get some good passes as well.
  15. I think most would agree we field a regular CHF and FF and the Max/BG is an extra with Fritta and 2/3 smalls at times. But I agree the smalls are a potential difference now that the extra in Chin kicks goals and tackles like Kossie and Vines.
  16. A real fake news item really. We have won by 50 50odd 62 and 90. And our accuracy has been a large part of those results. What it does say is when we play well out footy is in good shape as we are getting the ball to the front of goals plus getting goals on the run from close in. Tigers Was a 50/50 potential result but instead of kicking the game away like them we again kicked well and the 3 goal margin reflected that again. I am sure many Dees fans can recall over the 50 years especially when we had poor teams we would play like the Tigers well and bravely but we were our worst enemy with conversion and eventually good teams would overrun us with pressure and extra class. Now it's our turn to repay those results and reflect our skill and new found accuracy. Long May it last. They are not looking for Pies downsides just marvelling at their skill etc in close finishes even without more shots as the Crows kicked away the game on Sunday.
  17. I was only saying NOT to bring Salo back "straight in" against what you posted Jaded you are thinking I don't want Salo till after say 3 or 4 games at Casey. Jaded You seem to have moved your goal posts now and want what I really posted. You will recall the disaster last season with Salo and that's what a repeat of should be totally avoided.
  18. Terrible T on front Reduce in size and horrible yellow as well.
  19. None of your points make a substantial reason for not having Tasmania nor a 20 the side that may come in time. Tasmania will be more successful because of its football heritage than the GWS and GC. It dares not to fail.
  20. Apologies for typing.
  21. What an instantly negative comment. Truthful in part TV a QQ/-/….- but we beat 17 when we were4 the best and GWS and GC have not been the spoilers. Maybe Tassie will be the new love child and win a flag before the two "outcast" AFL mobs. All except the perennial Dockers all other teams have won a Flag as they have come from AFL. The Suns and Giants have not. Tassie will be more productive and footy smart than the rugby states teams and admin wise. We will still be in flag mode most likely in 2027/8 so it's up to us to keep our window open and recent signings are a great sign of our future potential.
  22. NO a thousand times NO. Not learning from last year if Salo comes straight back in.
  23. Great news. We have a 4 year window ( or more) and our forward line snd midfield has just been improved. How good is it to have Kossie for another 100 games, 200 plus goals, plenty of snapshots, even more exciting runs kicking goals, 500 tackles, and a couple of medals around all the team's neck. Might even win a B and F as well. All the best Kossie stay fit and have fun. Shouted the house down when I read of your resigning. Thank you for staying. See you at Heritage Bank Stadium on Saturday.
  24. Petty to return Schache as sub or Harmes.
  25. There is a parking area to the south of the Stadium off the Nerang/Broadbeach Rd. Pretty sure you pay as you go into park. It's only $10 I think. Pretty easy to exit after matches end to return same roads you used on the journey there. Might pay just to look on goldcoastfc.com.au website or ring them if any doubts.
