Robert Heatley Stand / Re: AFL Rd 18 2023 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs Port Adelaide

I noticed during the song his knee was bandaged. Unlike MK last week, who was in a brace. I'm no medic either but didn’t think it looked severe at the time. Let's hope it's minor 🙏
When you do an ACL, you can still walk in a straight line.  It's moving sideways is the problem.  I thought it looked like the knee was stiffening up as he walked across the ground.  We will only know after the scan tomorrow.

Come Monday morning, perhaps even Sunday morning, were I Messrs Cook and Sayers, I’d have one man and one man only sitting in front of us, B Lloyd… Head of Football. And I’d be asking, “How come?”

How come little has changed? In fact, we don’t look as good as last year, so perhaps we’ve even gone backwards.

How come we still go to water when real heat is applied, resulting in dreadful inconsistency within games?

How come we continue to make baffling decision at the selection table? Example: a fella with ordinary VFL form gets senior selection then plays 5 ordinary games in the seniors (Honey) while others in the VFL with good form are ignored?

How come we have so many out of form players?

And HOW COME we have two Coleman medalists in our forward line who can outreach 98% of the competition, a Brownlow medalist running the engine room, yet the game plan is obsessed with a backline kicking sideways and a midfield racking up uncontested possessions instead of using speed into our forward line to isolate our goal kickers...????

And HOW COME we have the same passengers as small forwards each week??

And HOW COME we have reserve players not being rewarded for effort week after week...??

And HOW COME, when we know Brisbane try to rag doll us, do we leave Kennedy on the bench as a sub...??

And HOW FREAKIN' COME did we sub Young off - one of our best backmen - and leave Honey, Motlop, Durdin on the ground...??

Blah-Blah Bar / CUB #baggers22 beer
CUB are releasing special edition Carlton Draught cans in the Carlton colours and logo.

Apparently you can only purchase them via the Carlton United website, but it isn't working...

Anybody else having this problem?

Blah-Blah Bar / Re: Judith Durham....an Australian icon
Keep in mind The Seekers had four million selling singles and hit the top of the charts at a time that was dominated by The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Kinks, The Who...etc.

Not bad for folk singing group playing in Melbourne cafes only months earlier.

This will be massive news in England where they still have a ridiculous following.
