So neither of them won? Gotta be happy with that.

As much as I've missed footy, I didn't even make it to quarter time before channel surfing.

The seven new players are close to like for like replacements: Bennell/Bedford, Rivers/Hibberd, Jackson/Brown (thank you), Salem/Lockhart, Jones/Spargo, Hunt/ANB and Smith/OMac. I like the look of this side and reckon we'll have a win. Welcome back footy!

My dog once ate some scrabble tiles and his poop made more sense that this post.

I'm trying to tease out what methods might work, other than mass protests in public that garner huge media coverage. The protests in USA, for example, had the effect of Chauvin being charged with second degree murder and also led to his fellow cops (Chauvinist pigs?) being arrested for aiding and abetting. They also brought the racism issue to the forefront. I agree that re-education is the key, albeit a slow process.

Serious? Just said that the emphasis is on the SECOND syllable. What part of that don't you get?

I very much agree with the cause behind the protests and support the protesters. However, my personal view is that the protests shouldn't have happened at this time because of the health risk. My question to you dc is what do you think would constitute an effective demonstration?

In regards to earlier posts querying how to pronounce Harley's surname, I noticed that Goody pronounced it with the emphasis on the second syllable - ie Ben - NELL.

Further to COVID-19, this has just been leaked. The only way it could be any bleaker is if Collingwood win the flag.

Correct me if I'm wrong DJ, but I think the one minute break is a COVID-19 measure that will allow drinks to be given to the players in a safe manner. Hopefully we won't need to keep doing this for a lengthy period of time and the breaks can revert to 30 seconds.

We'd all like far less of Brian, but that's a decision for the broadcaster and not the AFL.

I suspect none of us will even notice the difference.

Think you may have missed the joke there, Doc.

Plus Kolodjashnij I assume.

Don't be mean, I'm sure they'll both turn up.

This might be the first time in history that people go to the drive-in to watch what's on the screen.

If things work out the way we all hope they do, we could call the opposite one the Pickett Pocket.

You don't say ...

No need to apologise, tiers. It's hard to understand why "kittens" would be censored in the first place.

No way that any of Al Pacino, Al Capone, Al Gore, Al Jolson or Weird Al Yankovic will be around in 50 years.

I just checked my 'ignore' list and it stands at 54. Granted, some of them may no longer post but they can stay on the list.

Encouraging news for Hawthorn members.

On this issue, I concur fully with Dr. Lecter.

Good point, ET. How about we open a chain of tobacconists then? It's legal, it won't change the public harm and, if we don't do it, others will make a fortune from doing so. Of course, I may just be smoke signalling here. ?
