There's probably another story developing here.
Trump wasn't happy with the theme of the half time show.
There was an alternative more MAGA friendly show operating in tandem.
America was divided by the half time shows. :D

Gee-long will slide a little I reckon.
Handbaggers will always be in and about given they have the experience and are well managed through the season, they just need to find a way to get the big names into a GF in a fresh state, at the moment they keep burning them in Prelims or early finals.

Having said that, I heard that Scott has gone MiA, or LoA, whatever it is it could be a sign he grows weary.
Scott has been given extra leave because he is coaching the Vic side. Good management, no issues.

If you want to see how to ruin the pinnacle sporting event of any sporting code, watch the Superbowl. It's basically everything bad about the USA, the internet, and social media rolled into hours and hours of broadcast!

They took a premier sporting evert and turned it into a clown show.

But in fairness, it's not just NFL, they are doing the same with US based F1 races, and I suspect aspects of the World Cup will be turned into something similar. The US can't help itself, it must submit to corporate greed, or it loses it's American grifter identity!

Sponsorship was rdiculous. Every minute there was another sponsor being plugged.

I like Darcy's boy in terms of his attack on the footy, the aggression he shows, but AFL is full of big bodies and eventually that style of play is going to take it's toll and that could be in Rnd 1 or in years from now, but it'll happen.

Victoria now has its smallest full-time police force in close to seven years despite soaring crime and government promises to boost frontline officers...think I read in the HS we are 1700 officers down on where we need to be.
A family member was a Detective but has gone back to being in Uniform for the massive overtime that is being offered...
Not just a recruiting issue, but I've heard that hundreds of Vicpol members are being poached by Qld and NSW offering better pay deals. However, from what I've heard a lot regret making that move, as much as we talk a lot about crime here in a Vic it turns out it's far worse in Brisbane or Sindney, who'd have thunk it, the grass isn't greener!

Really, from what I've read Vicpol aren't doing a bad job, the problem is the courts, crooks are out on bail before the report is even written!

I know of several who came back to Vic not re-entering the force but leaving it, one couple I know were both in Vicpol and went to Qld, then returned to Victoria to become Fireys. Talk about out of the frypan and into the fire!
