Go Aussies.

2 huge sporting events this weekend, Aussies v NZ and Casey v Williamstown.

Victoria wins the Sheffield Shield after coming last the year before. Go Aussies in the World Cup thursday and hopefully Sunday.

Sad to hear of the passing of another great Demon, Geoff Tunbridge. RIP Tunna.

As I said in an earlier post, it was a pity that Port or the Crows didn't have pick 4, with us having pick 5. That would most likely have seen them take Jimmy and we would have most likely taken Ollie. However if that was the case, Ollie would have been severely injured and hardly played, while Jimmy would have already won 2 Brownlows PS. I am still hopeful that Jimmy will have a good career with us.

While there were plenty on here calling for us to take Ollie over Jimmy, there can be no doubt that Jimmy was very good in his TAC year as captain of SA and in the seniors at Woodville as well. Clearly a few clubs by passed Ollie and most would have taken Jimmy ahead of him including Port. It may have been a blessing if they had pick 4 and we had 5. I am sure they would have taken the local under 18 Captain and we would have probably then taken Ollie. Of course that is spilled milk. Without doubt Ollie has improved dramatically, while Jimmy has been ill and injured and suffered a lack of confidence. There is still time for Jimmy to find his mojo and go some way towards making the comment of Chris Johnson, the Lions triple premiership player, that "Jimmy could be a future AFL Captain," not seem so absolutely ridiculous.

Unfortunately for us, it is not just the Wines/Toumpas case, but rather 15 or more dud high picks that have put us where we are.

Disappointing night.

Pus-y. Can't believe the word was censored.

Happy to sit together as long as it is on ground floor.

In front of my son, that would be damning. Do you want to meet though?

Anyone going to the game friday? Happy to meet some of you, as I am going with my son.

Apparently it is an old winery in Richmond near the Yarra.

Do you wine experts know the closest winery to the CBD?

Price of smoothies will go through the roof.

Clark, 6 goals and Cats best.

They are those big round rubbery balls aren't they?

Waiting for BBO to say, " as the Nun said to the Bishop".

Have the players turned up or not? It is now 1.50PM.

What?

Open training day with a BBQ at Gosch's at midday. Wonder if Jazzy is supplying the sangers?

Could be a full bladder.

Because it is a football thread, just look at the posts.

OD, you must have given them away by now.

No injuries, please.
