    Melbourne straight sets isn’t much consolation, but I’ll take it.
    According to someone who coached him at school he's very much an 'F'. Said person mentioned his footy smarts more than once


    Welcome back. I was just thinking about you the other day when I mentioned a story about my dad in a post.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

          I love youse all, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t regret it a bit. Footy ain’t what it used to be and this playing group and coach doesn’t make footy fun at all. I will seriously think about the comeback. Life was better without this.

            Im finding the urge to spend 6 hours in a car to watch a bunch of guys just playing for a pay check slowing dying.

            Local footy is so much more enjoyable to follow.

              I feel that man. Footy really is just heroin.

                  Nah, I hate local footy too.

                    Yep and yep. I’m out of the footy stuff. I’ll stay for the fun and engaging people on here, the info on trade and list management etc. But the break last year from the actual footy was great. I feel regret almost instantly. Players, effort, coach, selections, skills, goal kicking, fitness and fade outs. Knowing life without footy for the first time in my entire life last year, for me it was more enjoyable.

                      Know how you feel. Feeling the same way. My game day investment is done. This group isn't worth my time.

                        I feel you.
                        However, doesn't it feel more normal to be this shit?

                        There's a certain relief for me knowing I can relax now and enjoy the year expectation free

                        Looking forward to going Thursday, and I have no idea why.

                              Is it because you’ve been saving up urine filled water balloons to throw at Josh Dunkley?
