  1. Yeah - and that guy Bradman was pretty ordinary under pressure too.
  2. 50 years obsession is but a grain of sand on a beach in the life of the known universe. Perspective please @Smokey.
  3. Yes and yes. It's my go to on the iPhone @layzie.
  4. Sheedy and Blight = footy geniuses.
  5. The guy is an - - - - hole.
  6. The sheer number of uninformed, arrogant, and clueless testimonies on 'Land is like watching a parade of people confidently explaining how to use a chocolate teapot. It's impressive how certain they are while being so spectacularly wrong! It's like they took a crash course in "How to Be Wrong with Conviction" and graduated top of their class. Sometimes, I wonder if they're all part of a secret society dedicated to spreading misinformation with unwavering confidence. At this rate, they'll be explaining how to build sandcastles out of quicksand next!
  7. Hey @WalkingCivilWar I must have borrowed my dog’s reading glasses—completely misread your post! Please disregard my earlier message; it was a mercy killing. Cheers!
  8. Tell me you're joking. At the very latest, it was 'invented' by Len Smith in the 1950's. Barassi refined it in the 60's
  9. I'm shocked at how shocked you were.
  10. Define soon.
  11. Take your point @Demonsone. But the '94 team was easily surpassed by the 2023 team IMHO.
  12. No, no, no on Waterperson. He's a better cultural fit at ArmageDON.

    Hey came from the rookie draft, and mostly plays as such.
  14. Mate - I haven't moved on from Matthews flattening Peter Giles and Steven Smith off the ball in the '70's.

    thank goodness.
  16. Me too @Smokey. the cost of getting to and fro from Melbourne is beyond a man of modest means in QBN. There's no way my rangy would get there and back without a tow truck being involved.
  17. In the last 25 years, third round picks (not counting father sons) have collectively, at least: accounted for five brownlow medals accounted for 40 odd B&Fs become premiership players 15 times.
  18. I know when I've given up on the season . . . more interested in draft order than the ladder. As at 3/4 time and half time in the two final Sunday games, we now nominally have pick eight.
  19. he's been gone since 2019 :-). Don't you read demonland every week?
  20. I know I missed the game, and it’s a wild story. First off, my Range Rover decided to throw a tantrum and broke down in the middle of nowhere. I figured, “Why not make the most of it?” So, I grabbed my skis from the trunk (thankfully, I always keep them handy for such emergencies) and hit the nearby slopes instead. As if that wasn’t enough, I got word that Jack Watts wasn’t playing. Without him, the game just isn’t the same. So, I found myself a cozy lodge, where I was greeted with a fantastic cheese board and a warm rug by the fireplace. Skiing, cheese, and comfort seemed like a pretty good trade-off at that point. So, in summary: car drama, impromptu skiing, no Jack Watts, and the allure of a cheese board and warm rug by the fire. Quite the trifecta!
  21. I've heard some [censored] in my time, but this seriously takes the the toilet brush.
  22. Come on Crank. There's an old saying in Canberra - never get between a state premier and a bucket of money. If Kossi ever become premier of WA, he'd be out the front door and half way to the airport before the other premiers had pulled out their ATM cards.
