Slick.

Is Steve Morris related to Philip Morris who used to sponsor Craig Smoker and Damien Gaspar?

An oft-quoted but inaccurate saying. A dead fish rots from the guts. All that bacteria, you see.

Just the facts, ma'am.

What statement might that be, given that the club has known for weeks that Nibbler is leaving?

He requested the trade several weeks ago. Do try to keep up.

The baby wasn't even conceived when he signed on if she was born in February 2024.

Nibbler made the request several weeks ago according to the report. It's your timing (amongst other things) that is off.

There is zero evidence that either Viney or Petracca want out. You're jumping at shadows.

His request is not related to any concerns about the club’s direction but based on the new father’s desire to be closer to family. The 28-year-old, who has two years remaining on his contract, had made the request several weeks ago.

Sorry to to see him go. A big trade, draft and off season just got bigger.

Wasn't even aware of it, @rjay. Will have to check it out. Thanks for the tip.

Anybody else longing for a return to happier, more innocent times?

Thanks for that Ray. It's a most entertaining retelling of the story. Gram (real name Ingram) made some wonderful music as a band member and also as a solo artist. "Grievous Angel" is one of my all-time favourite albums. Another version of the story is that Kaufman was charged with "Gram Theft Parsons".

Didn't you twig that I've already posted that one?

Sorry, @monoccular. I should know by now when to bough out gracefully.

Mason Wood? Wood grows on trees. Sean Lemmens perhaps? Twiggy Dunne? (might be a bit old) I could branch out, but I'll leaf it alone for now.

Even if we win both our remaining games, the percentage gap is too vast.

But ... but ... @Clintosaurus assured us that it's all rigged by AFL HQ and that they have decided that Carlton will be the 2024 Premiers by beating Collingwood in the Grand Final.

It's a bit unfair to single out Kolt's shocker. Both teams missed several gettable chances, among them Demons such as JVR, Nibbler and Billings.

It was enough to win the game for Port Adelaide.

That's a very good question. I have a similar query. I'm attending the funeral of a bloke next week who was a fanatical golfer. Would it be appropriate, as the coffin is being lowered into the grave, to yell out "Get in the hole!"?

Are you hoping for a dead cat bounce?
