This may not be of interest to anyone but our resident statistician - but the upcoming Brisbane/Geelong match has more "J"s playing than I have ever seen. Let me explain, J.Redden, J.Brown, J.Rivers, J.Green, J.Kelly, J.Caddy, J.Selwood, J.Bartel, J.Patfull, J.Clarke, J.Adcock, and then on the bench - J.Aish, J.Crisp, J.Leslie, J.Paine, J.Shiringham, J.Murdock & J.Walker..
Must be SOME sort of record.

he he... I like it, even though my team is 0-2.
Funny stuff.
With Walker and Kruezer out of team it was never going to be easy to win but, if only for a couple of more straight shots at goal we would have won.
But we did not, so them the breaks and plenty of time for us to turn it around.
Happy to see Dylan Buckley and Troy Menzel have impact in last quarter.
Really annoyed at Warnock stupid lack of composure in backline. That is his whole issue. He can ruck, but not much else.
I would have traded him and kept Hampson if I could have , but the club made a different call on that one so hopefully he works well with Kruezer in long run in same team. Always felt Hampson paired with Kruezer would work better in longer run for mine. Hampson can pinch hit forward, Warnock never has been able to do ANYTHING other than ruck itself. Lets hope he gets brilliant at that one skill he has, because his weaknesses are hard to deal with as a Carlton fan on nights like last night.

I dunno, but you'll probably find it in the 1999 Preliminary Final replay or maybe 2011 Elimination Final.
The answer to a question I never ask rarely interests me, unless it is a good question...lol..
This one does not fit within the domain of my universe so I'll leave it for you to discover your quest.
I suggest you ask William Bell.

Then there is the words and wisdom from Glen Manton!

The beginning of all wisdom is when you realize what you don't know...
Just listen to Manuel from Fawlty Towers... wise man....
