      He was one of our best in a final against Geelong a few years back (08?).
      If he's polish, not substance, he's very good. If required to do too much heavy lifting he can go missing.

        That's only onece out of how many finals though? Missy would have played 5 or 6 finals for us I reckon.
        They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

              Have we had a Intra-club over the weekend? Seems like most other clubs have, but haven't heard anything about ours (and am I right in saying we usually have one prior to the first preseason hitout?).

                Doesn't seem like we are going to have one before the JLT starts. I think they have been doing alot of match simulations but not full on intra club.

                          Those pens get sucked by an awful lot of mouths.

                            Went up to Ballarat this morning hoping for a photo with premiership cup and seeing how the players were, who missed JJLT1.

                            Got my photo with the cup within 5 mins (only around 40 supporters present) but the group training included only those players from JLT1, so I was't able to make any visible assessment of Bonti, Wood, Dixon and others who didn't play.

                            The Eureka surface looked in good nick and it was good to see the construction of the new grandstands going ahead.
                            There is no sadder sight than a young pessimist.

                              In the video, not a photo.

                                Intraclub scratch match at family day. Powder blues vs whites. Not a great contrast!

                                Biggest thing that struck me so far is Bailey Williams. He's bulked up significantly.
