I think we were looking like a decent side before we got Lewis...

I would be very surprised if he doesn't... Dill the likeable is waiting for this to happen, so much easier for him.

Dill the likeable seems to be doing some of his best work here...

Not sure I can fully vouch for my sanity but let me have a go. I think 'red' & 'Jack' might tell you there is no point suing someone if they haven't got the dollars in the bank to pay out or insurance coverage. For a change I think the EFC players & former coach might have had and have listened to reasonable legal advice on this one.

He's not going to improve his disposal and decision making in the gym or on the roads...

He certainly hasn't hurt his chances this finals series. Good on him for having faith in himself, he could have taken the easy way and earned a lot of cash playing in the locals. Wouldn't be unhappy to see us take him on.

Fyfe is from WA. ...and the only momentum seems to be on this forum. Hi Caro, if your reading. Hope you don't mind the bagging you copped over the tanking saga.

I wouldn't take Keilty or McInnerney, both VFL players and I don't see a place for them at AFL level.

I think we've got clearance players 'Andrew', just don't think we played it smart today. I would have put Vince on to Gibbs early in the first Q to cut his effectiveness and cut him out from going 3rd up. However, I don't know what the agenda was in the box. It might have been more about the learning experience.

So you thought our kicking game was good??? We are still in desperate need of good kicks...

Pretty obvious after todays game that we need someone like Hibberd.

The Royal Scam is one of my favourites, love Carlton's solo on Kid Charlemagne...his best work for me is when playing with 'Dan' and 'The Crusaders', his solo stuff can be bland. The track 'Aja' is the highlight on that album for me.

More than midfield deficiencies 'Adam'. I think the Cats have real problems with defence if the ball is moved in fast. Their key midfielders are downhill skiers and if they don't get on top the Cat's are toast. ...but to your point, I'm not so keen on the superstar signing either. Find someone who compliments the list and grows with us, I think we have a few stars in the making on our list already.

For a minute I thought John McLaughlin was playing with these guys....got the wrong dimension.

2 very disappointing shows are Vinyl & Roadies...some impressive people behind both (Jagger/Scorsese & Cameron Crowe) but total flops. How could they get it so wrong. Not sure if there will ever be a good rock drama on the tele????? Nashville is a good soap & guilty pleasure on Country music.

The great Django, influenced by the "big bang theory"of jazz Louis Armstrong and the pioneer of jazz guitar Eddie Lang. Eddie set it up for Django and Charlie Christian to build a great legacy. Unfortunately they all died quite young and there is very limited video available, non of Charlie Christian. Amazing what he does with 2 fingers and a couple of stumps (ex - fingers)...

Can be very annoying if an acoustic act is on... Crowds mature in age but often not in manners.

I always thought it was a pity she didn't do her walk of atonement.

Well...a few of the questions have been answered. Jon & Daenerys are very close... No white walkers yet but winter isn't coming, it's here. The sand snakes are back and good to see, so that's what Varys has been up to. Tyrion may not have to worry about his brother. Arya's back and has a few more on her list. No castle for Bron yet, somethings else on his plate and the hound is still out there wondering around Now we wait to see what happens next year.

No, and my partner declined (she knows the guys in the band and their manager drummer from Extreme in a previous life) although there were still plenty who did... Amazing what people will do.

Can't post any Steel Panther video's given the 'G' rated nature of the site but did enjoy them at Festival Hall on Saturday night...very PC incorrect but at least you know what you are getting into. After a prompt...the crowd sang a couple of verses of Community Property before the band came in. They go a bit over the top but they are a very good band when you strip it back to the music... Pity, but I don't think they will be invited to do the AFL GF.

Lovely fingers though 'nut bean'.... Interesting story from Bob Bain who was the guitar player.... “When the date was over the contractor (Phil Coggin) came over and said ‘Bobby, you stay.’ The whole orchestra left and I’m sitting around. Hank said ‘Why don’t you go over to Nick’s. We won’t need you for another half hour. All you’ll need is your gut string (guitar).’ I figured that they wanted me to play a little background music or something. When I came back, Audrey Hepburn was in the studio. The studio had been darkened and the only people there were the engineer in the booth, the producer (Blake Edwards), Hank, and an assistant in the booth to run the tape machine. They had told everybody else to essentially get lost. Audrey did not want to sing with a big orchestra. She wanted to record ‘Moon River’ with just guitar and voice. She was so nice and very easy to accompany. She was really a good singer, too…. She made one take and we went in the booth to listen to it. Hank asked her if she thought she could do it one more time and she agreed. We did a second take and that was it. Then Hank took that track (with just guitar and voice) and overdubbed strings. In the picture, the first sixteen bars has Audrey in a window or a doorway singing ‘Moon River’ with just guitar and then the orchestra sneaks in. It ended up with this really nice orchestration.”

Really interested to find out what Varys is up to on his secret mission... Is there a connection with Jon Snow & Daenerys? I think there is. When do the white walkers come over the wall? All quiet in Dorn...I miss the sand snakes What happens when and if Tyrion comes up against his brother...who choses who? What part does the Hound play now? When & where does Arya connect? Will Bron get his castle? Lots of dots to connect........ I think the next series will sort out the iron throne and then we will get serious with the whites....

Could White be the backup for Nev 'Angry'?

Losing Frawley left a hole in the backline that needs to be fixed. Was always going to happen and I'm sure (I hope) the FD could see it coming...hopefully they have it in hand. As you say it's a big need for us in the offseason.
