Robert Heatley Stand / Re: AFL Rd 2 2023 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs Geelong
bratblue, you've been a little quiet these past few months. Tutto bene ?
I hibernate during the off season, generally don't come back here until winter. Nice to see my sparing partner is still around.

By the way, Cowan & Hollands are two of the best pick-ups we have made in some years.
Since Dow and O'brien. ( Roll eyes)

I wonder if TDK might be worth trying in defense...
Get some lessons off his brother.

Can’t recall the talking head who said it on radio (though it was probably Nick Riewoldt), but the comment was made that King needs to add more to his game rather than just being a jump and mark exponent. The comparison was made that Josh Kennedy’s body really should see him in retirement but he is still kicking goals because he has great forward craft.
Wayne Carey wrote about it and suggested that King should get on the phone to Nick.

Blah-Blah Bar / Re: This is the POTUS?
A political system that throws up Biden and Trump as the president is probably fairly flawed, but if we look back at their predeccors, especially since the second world war, it's never been a system that's produced a lot of 'greatness' in terns of leadership, despite the hype surrounding some of them.
Not a patch on Caligula unfortunately.

Robert Heatley Stand / Re: Love the draw
Well there you go. We all see things differently. I dont think I've been more optimistic about a season for a decade. No more of this rebuilding/ development- maybe in a year or two rubbish. Dont worry about Voss needing time to settle in. The time has come.
Settle down Lod's, this is Carlton you're talking about. After many let downs I refuse to read the propaganda that emerges from our marketing department during the off season now. Not that I'm saying you have but you sound like it.

I think Flyboy and Shawny are two excellent posters entitled to their opinions and its not healthy creating an "us against them culture". CoVid has created this vax vs antivax theme pitting different opinions/posters against each other and I find it a form of bullying when posters are singled out for having a minority/different view and IMO everything is still unresolved in terms of vaccines and outcomes and thats from novice opinions all the way up to the top end to medical professional opinions.
I don't usually have strong opinions Elwood and prefer to live and let live ( just ask Paul lol). I think I may have too many good friends who are in the very front line of emergency and ICU and it upsets me what they are going through now and what the consequences of the unvaccinated are being projected to have in the future.
It was explained to me that the baby boomer generation are more community minded where as later generations are more the me, me and me minded. Whilst there are always exceptions perhaps its true.

Safe bet that Flyboy hasn't been vaccinated and won't be unless the men with the butterfly nets catch him. Now he has a partner in crime in Shawny who may also be a little bit anti-vax. Interestingly, though, Flyboy & Shawny haven't interacted in this thread despite their common interests, so you have to wonder whether they're 2 people or 1.
Does Flyboy wear a tin hat?
