I reckon he still can't believe his luck that he's been on an AFL senior list for 9 years.
A total spud, Liam Jones has more idea.
The only thing in this world worth more than a hill of beans is the Carlton Football Club.

The same clueless boneheads now say the US sourced players are a waste.
Just a matter of time. The US has more gifted athletes playing in high level/elite sport than any other county in the world and AFL has only just scratched the surface.
95% are finished as athletes when college finishes. It will be a tidal wave, particularly for tall talent.
Mason Cox looks a terrific prospect and he's just the start. well said.

Remember have this conversation ages ago, with the amount of athletes in the state if AFL took off run for cover because the size and running ability of some of these guys would be scary thing to be up against. Far fetched I know but image an athlete similar to Michael Jordan , and they are out there , playing CHF ?

He'd launch into the clouds grab a mark hitting the ground running, then run too far, be penalised and kick the ball out of bounds in panic!

Well, I won't bother to read it then
Clearly our club has made on field success its highest priority and I have no argument with that. Winning a practice match might attract a few new members but sustained on field success will bring them back in droves.

There goes Caro, putting the kibosh on Nthmond again!
She's like the curse that just keeps on giving, the female version of William H Macy's character The Cooler, the malady stopping their success!

You probably saved yourself 5 minutes that you can never recover by not reading it. It was typical Caro: hurt anyone you can except Richmond.
I guess we shall see just how wise we were during Round 1. If we win, then she will have to admit that she was wrong, but I expect that more from Cardinal Pell than from Caro.
Live Long and Prosper!

I we win Hardwick won't make it to Easter Sunday, he'll be given his chocolates early and told to feck off!
