The Age is hinting that we might have found a Chinese sponsor. Chinese whispers may land Demons sponsor Doesn't say much though:

Hopefully this will eliminate your hateful selection posts then

Who would you open with?

Yes.

Honestly, does finding out the teams at 6:15PM instead of ~5PM really make a difference? I'm against the idea in principle, but the difference in time is irrelevant.

AAMI Park is far superior to Junction Oval. However, that doesn't mean it's ideal, so why wouldn't we look at alternatives? The current administration weren't in love with the AAMI Park deal and, even now, it's not up to scratch in terms of office space etc, so I'm glad the Club is exploring other options. The Casey commitment is neither here nor there; 'Western Park' would replace AAMI Park. Another move? What was our other move?

I think drdrake is right; Scully looks quicker in the last quarter of games because everyone else is more tired than he is.

I too disagree with My TD re: Beams. He's a scrubber compared to the players we should be trying to nab with our comp picks, yes.

I'll put my hand up and say I'm guilty of this. Compared to much of our list, Jones seems like he's been around forever. Part of that is that he's played so many games each season.

Absolutely; Vettori's value with the bat is criminally underrated.

My TD didn't assert that you suggested we should go for him, he just disagreed with this assertion: For the record, I do [edit: disagree with the assertion] too.

Happy to trade, but not for relative scrubbers* like Beams. *That might be harsh, but we're talking quality picks.

If he ends up in the AFL, I can't wait for the call from the crowd when he screws up.

Wow, India were 9 wickets down at the end too!

Good to see some fresh faces. Starc should probably carry the drinks.

I'd take two. Bird in hand..! Seriously, no premiership since the 60s and you wouldn't take a guarantee of two premierships in the next 10 years? Bizarre.

Ingerson was a great pickup for us.

I will be writing my own 'guide for those who really don't care about the draft' on or after Thursday night. It will include the player profiles of three players; those picked at 36, 52 and 54. Don't bother reading profiles of players we probably won't pick up, wait until after the draft and then read about the players who will actually play for us. Who honestly cares about some mid-draft scrubber who ends up on the list at Fremantle or North? Not me.

My reading of Cricinfo's text commentary was that he wasn't batting very well.

I love Test cricket. Australia wins, Cummins lives the dream.

If you're going to emulate TIger fans you'd surely just dump a truck of manure at Club HQ.

I like the look of Wade.

This doesn't mean much. If you're in NSW you're likely to say your team is Sydney, but what's of interest is how many of those people are 'active' supporters (or can be turned into active supporters). It's a bit like a bunch of Victorians saying their NRL team is Melbourne Storm, despite never paying attention to the rugby.

...and his radio station.
