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.
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.
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 was talking to my mates Mrs last night who's an ICU specialist at a big Melb hospital. Some of the things she said was that all of her covid patients are unvaxxed. Most have other health problems like obesity diabeties smokers etc. They aren't dying like they used to with better treatments but they will be ruined for life anyway. It takes eleven people to turn them over which happens twice a day. They are all in a coma and on ventilators. Their families almost always go and get vaxxed when they see how sick there loved ones are. The nurses and docs are getting totally worn out and are sick of having to wear all the stuff they need to work in a covid ward. It costs 4000 a day per patient and most stay for a long time.
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.
While I haven't followed this debate closely I'm wondering if anyone on here have chosen not to be vaxed? I learn't that a family member is an anti vaxer and I find it useless to argue with such idiots, its becomming like politics and religion and to be kept away from polite company.
