    The nowhere Bulldogs are letting another season slip away
    Very sad reading that
    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

      Mitch Hahn was a pretty good player for us. Not sure I like that part.
      Otherwise, yes well written. We are a tipsters' nightmares.

        I think he's talking about Mitch's time forward in his last season where, apart from running into a rampaging Barry Hall and effectively finishing his career, I thought he was pretty good.
        They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                  Optimism, pessimism... Reminds me of a great quote by Prof. Cornell West about the huge 'evidence based' distinction between optimism and hope (when looking at an issue. Here, it was progression on racial equality):

                  "Optimism is a notion that there’s sufficient evidence that would allow us to infer that if we keep doing what we’re doing, things will get better. I don’t believe that. I’m a prisoner of hope."

                  Might be our season 2019 motto.
