Something very weird about his departure. I'd think he'd want to be on the ground at least celebrating if they win as his final act. I get there's a child birth at some stage a bit later on but hmmm.
He's the antithesis of Mitch Wallis.

His wife had twins within hours of him getting back to Victoria.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

There you go. Thanks. I read here? that it wasn't until later.
Makes complete sense now.
Wallis comparison stands.

Yeah I was joking that it was mid December, but the team encouraged him to go home for the birth of his twins so as to avoid a more awkward conversation.
So if that was it, I apologise for my skylarking.
Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

Good news re VDM if he does come up you still get a medal for being the sub, his attack on the ball was excellent last week deserves to play a role for mine.
Same with Martin as the second week is always the hardest after being out for so long. He has the extra week to get his body right and the extra massages. Could not have come at a better time for both he and Bont and you could throw in Keath as well.

Did Martin play in the first match against the Demons this year?
The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride.

Next month, Jones will announce he is coming out of retirement to join the Cats on a three year deal.

Nope. We haven't played the Dees with Stef, Dunks or Treloar.

Thanks.
Thought so.
We are going to belt these entitled pricks.
I see another 1954 coming up.

I am interested in the match ups. I do not want to see Oliver running around getting a free pass. I want to see a lot of attention paid to Fritsch. Dunkley for Oliver. One of the Baileys for Fritsch.
