For MFC supporters it was very real. Watching Flower and Lyon in front of big crowds playing with the best was a rare treat

CASEY: Rd 18 vs Coburg
It wasn't a great performance by Casey from a skilled systems viewpoint. Coburg tried hard Wayward kicking probably cost Casey 4-5 goals I can remember 2 very good chains of disposal but overall a bit slow and ponderous for my liking

Amazingly bad administration at so many levels. Nic Nat should have been paid out last season and the rebuild begun as one example

Training Ground?
A little snippet from the Commonwealth games fiasco. The article is about the infamous temporary swimming pool but it has this gem... The original plan was for the swimming to be held at an existing aquatic centre at Kardinia Park. This is why, on March 1, 2022, Dame Louise Martin and Katie Sadleir from the Commonwealth Games Federation, Ben Houston and Craig Phillips from Commonwealth Games Australia and Visit Victoria chief Brendan McClements – the person who had pitched Victoria’s bid three months earlier – travelled to Geelong with senior government bureaucrats to tour that site. This is the plan the City of Greater Geelong council supported. At the time, Games planners had a new gymnastics venue pencilled in next to the pool. This would have established Kardinia Park as a central Games precinct and, after the event, given the neighbouring Geelong Football Club access to a high-roofed, indoor training centre for use on wet days. https://www.theage.com.au/national/victoria/how-victoria-s-commonwealth-games-ended-up-the-creek-20230721-p5dq4h.html

CASEY: Rd 18 vs Coburg
Left for overseas yesterday so will miss this one Pirhana Park, Coburg is a lovely well located ground. If nearby get along. The local craft brewer used to have a tent there for those who like a beer. Parking should not be hard either in the car park or in the side streets and a short walk to the ground.

Farewell James Jordon
The sub rules in 2021 required as I recall a medical opinion before activation. Sure some clubs were very lax about the threshold but if JJ had come on someone would have spilt the beans thus impugning the medico. I like the May replacement theory though. Continued play when we had the game won was outweighed by the medical risk (albeit a slight risk) of severe tendon damage

Farewell James Jordon
He's number 1 on the depth list at present. How do you retain such a player? The same conundrum as Bedford/Chandler at the end of last season.
