General Malaise

Tracc’s off with knee issues. Been favouring one knee all session now seems to have finished up after physio tests.

Toby Bedford just brought Big Max down in a ripper tackle. A bit to like there.

Billy’s looking sprightly and pretty sharp so far.

Once In A Lifetime player. Will be burning down the house next year.

Holidaying in Surfers' as a young fella (1981?) I was in a beer garden and there was this bloke had his feet up on the chair I wanted to sit on. I pulled the chair out from under his feet as I asked 'can I have this one mate?' and at the same second as I realised it was Mark Jacko Jackson on the end of year footy trip with other Demons. Shat myself but survived.

My 2017/2018 assessment: Last year should have got Lever for a first round and future second round pick (IMO) which would have given us our first rounder this year (14?) to play with to work our way into a May deal and not have to enter into a Hogan fire-sale. Yeah, Mahony plays a straight bat and doesn't muck around, which is ok, but the effects compound down the line.

Half-paced, half-arsed half the time. Often plays with the urgency of Watts without the footskill or discipline.

Hot Sauce: - NT games to continue. Basically have no choice (financially and we're in too deep with sponsorship/relationships etc). Didn't specify Darwin, but I got the impression it was status quo (no rolling over or laying down). - Both games are either NT or Docklands, definitely not MCG. Hot Sauce knows, not guessing. Over.

The fit. Assuming Google maps is in scale with itself. The blue is equivalent to MCG surface. Red is what we currently use at Gosches. A little replanting and re-routing of paths.

So it's a rip-off of both Liverpool AND Barca, even though they each look nothing like each other? Similar elements (as admitted by CS) in a totally different design doesn't make it plagiarism. I don't believe ours could remotely be mistaken for theirs. Heraldic Tradition I say. Meanwhile the Marylebone Cricket Club called. They want their monogram back.

Oh. Sorry I thought you were DISagreeing, that’s usually the case when people respond to me with “that doesn’t make any sense.” It happens a fair bit, and they’re usually right.

Hey slow down CW, you’ll see we’re saying the same thing.

Yeah but... a shield isn’t an idea, it’s a “device”. Like squares, circles, colours, words. Hence we replaced it with another shield.

Serious? Absolutely no resemblance. Other than a shield.
