State of Origin for Bushfire Appeal
Tend to agree with you adc, when lots of money is involved largess appears. Also who is dediding where the AFL money goes? Gill! Having said that there is much to do and the need for money and lots of it is high. I guess we just have to accept that substantial amounts will not be spent wisely and be happy that the majority of money will hit the right spots. To do anything else means that no one will get the much needed funds.

TRAINING: Friday 10th January 2020
Thanks for that BB now some will think I am being sarcastic but I am not, good to see you were happy with the Weid's performance today. We need him to be consistently in the best players in 2020.

Always intrigues me why people get wound up about stories on club websites. By its very nature a club website is about promotion and positivity of the club. The stories will always be positive about the club. Can you imagine this piece written in any other fashion. If he had nothing positive to say the article would not exist. You go to club websites for factual information like entre times to games etc not warts and all stories about the club's chances or real injury information. E.G. AVB last year. His injury was never discussed, in fact I don't think the nature of his injury was ever listed.

I live in a council area that has had its councillors removed twice over corruption etc issues. The best results have been achieved when we had administrators. Without the petty self interest of councillors every thing works well and things get done properly. I believe the Casey council is heading for the high jump. The state government is just going through the process. IMO the council will be sacked before Casey plays its first game in 2020. What effect that will have on our relationship is not clear but it will depend on the attitude of the administrator / s. In My experience decisions will be made on the worth of individual projects not the pets projects of councillors.

Hi DJ, your last sentence probably says it all. I think people long ago work out there was 9 tenths of nothing available in the inner Melbourne area so outer surburbs it was. So far they have been proved correct.

Tomlinson or KK
If correct that may well be the end IMO. He has had continuing problems since day 1 of his senior career. Some people just do not have the body for the game I suspect he is one of them.

2019 - THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS by The Oracle
Not sure about that Mr. Leg I have prayed a fair bit about Dees results over the last half century and we know how successful that has been.

What is his chief talent DS?

Don't worry pf he is in no danger of getting a game. To start with he is still not even training and then there is the small problem of talent.

2019 - THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS by The Oracle
I think 2019 was the season we had to have. i actually think we were not as good in 2018 as a lot of people think. Towards the end of July we had not beaten anyone above us in the eight at that stage. We then had a purple patch over the last six weeks. Come the results of 2019 we were forced to look at our list and FD because they were not as good as we thought at the end of 2018. A lot of changes were made and it would appear we added 3- 5 good players to the list. As you say Bob we will do a lot better this year. I expect a 7-8th finish.

Players that need the most development
Good summation there LT agree with 95% of that. The 5% I disagree with is the Weid has to average better than 1 goal per game. 1.5 is my mininium. I expect an average of 2.
