You even highlighted what I said but it looks like you still think I'm not vaccinated...? Huh!!?

It's the time it took to roll a vaccine out to the public, its the lack of understanding around the origin of this virus. It's the political intervention and it's use in the political landscape. Medical science still isn't concrete on Ice Baths. Some players like wearing Skins because a Sports Scientist said it aided recovery, lessened injuries. For some players the use of Skins is just psychological. Rock tape, used internationally and in other codes of sport but not in AFL. I have used Rock Tape but I have also seen the divide Rock Tape brings the sports sience community. Having a Covid vaccine makes you feel better, more protected. A flu vaccine has done its job for me in my opinion during flu season. I have gotten the flu bad when I haven't had the flu shot but that's my trial and error. I won't force you to take the flu shot if you feel your immune system can handle you getting Influenza.

We don't know Liam's intentions, he might thing he has enough to go off the grid and live off the land in isolation, wish I could. Liam Jones might want to sit out for a couple years and see where this covid thing goes in a few years. So you bring up worst case scenarios, goes both ways you know. Division has never been greater when it comes to people's opinions than right now. I feel you don't ask enough questions and you are happy to go along blindly because the expert gave it the thumbs up. During Covid-19 the billionairs increased their wealth immensely, Jeff Bezos just paid $78 million for 14 acre property on the beach of Maui. Yet in the same breath he will condemn you for creating too much carbon while he takes his jet all over the world. "But global warming" and "rising ocean levels" only matter to us and Jeff Bezos when he wants an ocean view. Al Gore Bill Gates and Obama also have property on the beach. Small business are in agony in Melbourne while the global corporations are raking it in.

Never said Liam was a specialist in science. Obviously there hasn't been enough of a persuasive argument put his way yet. Doctors used to promote smoking too. Yeah science has got it 100% correct every time. Money talks, money makes things happen, not always for the good.

I think it's funny, science was about throwing in a theory and wanting others to challenge your theory. Scientists welcomed other scientists to challenge their theory because that is how progress is achieved. But heaven fobid if you challenge Covid or Climate science. You get ousted and called a denier. Cancelled even. So Liam is going to throw himself into economic prison, that's his decision. Its always better to entice or persuad people to take the vaccine with good arguments. Forcing people to take something is always going to bring division. Governments have not always done what's best for everyone.

Back in 2000 I was prepared to get "Every Heart Beats True" with the old 90's-2000 emblem, on my left side of my chest. Wife mentioned this time in my life to my oldest son and now I am getting pressure from him. "Come get a tatt with me!" If I was I would still put in the line "Every Heart Beats True" but with the current monogram.

Under a salary cap you are going to have a couple players that you think aren't good enough but a few forget they are there because they are cheap. We were blessed with so few injuries this season so the cheaper players weren't relied on. But 2021 was pretty special. Anyone who was called upon stood up.

No, I want more. For too long I supported a club that no one hated because we weren't a threat. I want to support a club that teams fear to play against. We are almost there, and if we smash our opposition early next season people will be shaking their heads as we come up in their schedule.

POSTGAME: GRAND FINAL vs Western Bulldogs
Youngwilliam replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
Seriously thought this day would never come. Halfway through the 3rd I was already preparing for the loss. But then Caleb Daniel threw Gawn to the astro turf and the Demons were unleashed. The rest is history! -

I hope the players are not as nervous as I feel right now. I keep pacing all over the house. -

Especially torn on this, Jones will be capable of running through brick walls if he is selected. But our GF victory is along time coming and no player is bigger than a club.
