There is little I can say that hasn't already been said. We are the poorer from his passing.

When I think of Channel 7's present commentators, I truly hope someone like him comes again, because the ones there aren't fit for purpose.

Robert Heatley Stand / Jim Park Voting AFL Rd 0 2026 Carlton vs Sydney
Last post by crashlander -
Voting is as usual: you have 15 votes to award pretty much as you will, with the following provisos:
[1] 15 votes in total, no more, no less.
[2] No more than 10 votes for any one player (even Sam Walsh or Patrick Cripps)
[3] Three players at least must get a mention.
[4] A grade for the game, A+ (what I want to see) to F-.

This exchange occurred, word for word, during a match between Melbourne and Collingwood in 2007:

Co-commentator Gerard Healy: “Word is this guy is the most reliable kick for goal in the side. They say down at Collingwood if you had to have someone kicking for your life, Tarkyn Lockyer would be the man...”
Cometti: “I’d prefer my mum.”
Healy: (Shocked silence)
Cometti: “Not a great footballer, but at least she’d care.”

Gee, the AI crap around this is conflict is abolutely ridiculous.
Most of it is easy to pick.
Just about all of it is propaganda.

But sifting through it all I'm not sure the 'special military operation' is going exactly to US/Israel expectations.
Is this the rock the 'Don and his minions' perishes on

Actually, the question is..."Is there actually a plan?"

The administration seems to be all over the shop with some of their comments.
