Jack Viney's demise has been greatly exaggerated.

This MUST be rectified, there's never an excuse to lose 3 in a row on that ground for this side.

That's the other thing I guess, for me the 1 x screen would probably be enough. As long as it's HD!

Oh yeah do like a bit of NBA come the pointy end of the season. Motor sport is another one, it's got just about everything for that I think.

Yeah not a chance! Was meant to get back to Melb at 12:15am in Jan and that became 2am!

One for the ages.

It's not $25 per month anymore is it? In that case it could be very decent value for some. I would have watched a lot of stuff on there once but now I reckon NFL and maybe the odd UFC would be about it. A dream for cricket lovers, not a huge fan but if you are then there's massive benefit there.

Good day's work from Sammy E there.

There's not a team in this league that Kozzie wouldn't walk into and improve.

I really only think it would be good value if you watched sport on it all year round.

Yeah look I'm not going to argue about something so trivial. Some people would like to know when it rolls over, I'd personally like to know the day my $700 payment is coming out wouldn't you? It rings true, your rollover date was likely earlier. Please don't call me a liar and please don't suggest that I wasn't a member in 2021 after 25 years consecutive.

I'm sure there's beautiful mind out there with a chalkboard who can figure it out with theorems and stuff 😜

Long weekend, would have been even more perfect!

Further impacted? Richo playing to his audience.

Yeah good call Gonzo, it's like trying to ride a bike too slow and not staying up.

Death, taxes and an 11th hour injury pre Rd 1..

I'll give them a chance early on if most of their side takes the park without any COVID issues but other than that I'd say around there too.

So what do you reckon? Stay or leave? This could be an all day brainbuster, but I need to get back to work.

No-one panic

After doing the Optus Stadium tour in the first week of the year I'd actually really love to see a game there. It's really just flight prices that I can't be bothered with otherwise this would be a great time to get over there for sure.

In my opinion Ross is a square peg in a round hole here. Everyone loves a good messiah returning story though. All sorts of talk that he'll be more attacking but philosophies don't change overnight with things like this. All this suggests to me is that he'll be willing to run and break a line an extra 5% per game. Going completely the other way is against his DNA. If he is indeed the guy to mould this list for the next 2 - 3 years then I see this year as almost a write off with plenty of growing pains. Much like 2014 for us under Roos, these guys will be taught the 'defence first' mentality and this will take time. His training methods are also some of the most demanding in the business so I see a lot of players on this list sinking or swimming and plenty of list turnover at season's end. Obviously Max King's injury really shakes things up. He needs that focal point up forward and the others either aren't good enough or not going to impact. Bottom 4 for sure.

Yeah that's not ideal. Hopefully just a knock to the knee

I'm sorry but I don't see how this is a hard thing to achieve, there are an abundance of IT and software options within CRM systems that would do this seamlessly. It's not like they have to manually write down dates that members sign up. However now that I think of it membership has not been for the calendar year in my experience. After we won the flag I tried to buy merchandise with a members discount in early October 2021 and it didn't work. After speaking the club they said I'd need to renew then and there (My usual annual rollover date is approx end of October) to claim the discount. I think it would be worthwhile to at least point this out and membership status in the account details section.

Well I didn't notice for what it's worth!

It does make for a typical current AFL player name doesn't it.
