i'm still trying to get the connection with "magic"

i preferred the wild man from borneo look i...th..in...k 🥴

Doc "Mr. Magic" Baldock

and the goal umpires will be wizards and signal scores with wands rather than flags goal posts will be flexible and fitted with anti-collision detectors thus eliminating any posters ch7 will run harry potter repeats between games

i have two passions in my football world 1. watching my team win 2. watching young talent develop their game and hone their skills mfc aflw is giving me both at the moment yeah sure i know there is still a long way to go and everything is far from rosy but it's continually on the up

and then we'd go through all the expansion confusion and disruption later on damned if you do and damned if you don't rome wasn't built in a day and all that guff

haven't met a single person in favour of this afl is another universe sometimes......or a univer$e

fixed it for ya, nev

wth is dogga doing at meth coke? 😲

the libs have said they approve in principle(!) and the major business groups have endorsed the plan. for what that is worth

the mcg redevelopment is planned to start in 2027 and done in stages so finals etc can still be staged. it probably wouldn't be finished until the end of the decade (or even later!). if this is the new direction it is a very long wait with many uncertainties

maybe the government panel has indicated it might be part of southern stand redevelopment (maybe including richmond station and building over train lines) but not yet guaranteed. this takes us back to the same conundrum with aami carpark redevelopment in not being able to go public and the need for secrecy because of government involvement. they can't say the aami carpark scenario has fallen through because they never announced (hinted yes) it in the first place just guessing though......

hey, what's a hundred years give or take?

boy, od, you've turned from a pessimist to an optimist 🤣 or has your account been hacked? 😲

just to clarify dz, i was 2 years younger (not earlier) than you, meaning 1947

oh. i see, it was your brother born in 1942 not you i remember halfpennies though there wasn't many around and i did see the odd farthing though nothing had a farthing in its price and i doubt shopkeepers would have accepted them. and yes in 1945 a 10 pound note would have been a king's ransom. you could buy a house in melbourne for under a thousand quid better stop there or i'll upset the millenials 😆

ah. the coin was 1944 (I checked a bigger image) so you are even older than it. they probably had farthings when you were born, lol. you can brag you remember the war (but don't tell fawlty)

you were born 1945? I was 2 years younger 😲

about this much, swoop

i just hope he has managed to lose that puppy fat 😲

we all know the world is weird, ldvc. and getting more weird as time goes on. but don't worry when we get to 2034 and have 34 in 34 we will have a fairer (note i said fairer, not fair) fixture where we all play each team twice. of course this assumes we'll still have 18 teams which is higher unlikely

you two need to get a room and sort out your fantasies 😛
