But you can't need my eyes.

I mean, the super 12s manage to run an intercontinental league, NZ to South Africa is probably a comparable distance to Melbourne/LA, so the travel is doable. The support base would have killed them immediately though

Congrats on the up coming little one! First 6 weeks are rough, but it's uphill from there for your sanity.

As for the rowing lady, it was for the best in the end, her and her husband split after only 3 years of marriage. But miscarriages happen much more than people realise and for a whole host of different reasons, but they're pretty awful for everyone involved. (sorry to be a Debby Downer).

My mother in law had like 6 miscarriages including a stillbirth on the way to 4 children :smith:

It still feels weird to think about footy. It's hard for me to imagine the Crows having a better year than they did in 2017, or the rest of the competition in general having as poo poo a year again, so I'm struggling to see them picking up the flag next year. I'd like to imagine that maybe our GF loss this year will be the impetus to a dominant reign, but I find it a lot easier to assume it's just a false dawn.

At least I have the AFLW to look forward to!

I look forward to seeing the innovative ways in which both our mens and womens teams can break my heart this year

Now I feel even worse about that off hand comment I made before

But so glad you�ve got a happy little lady now I�ve got a big 18 month old boy who is also the best. He got a Freo onesie for his first birthday, it�s for a 2 year old but he�s already out grown it.

Now here�s a question, I�m originally from Perth and follow the Dockers, is it right to force the Purples on my son who was born in Parkville and never been further west than Werribee Zoo?
(I think so)

purple = red + blue, sign them up for the demons

I'd be okay if he chose the Hawks or Dees, but he'll be going to live with a particular uncle of his if he choses the Eagles.

Jeez mate, I was just joking, I wouldn't wish this hell on anyone

Fuuuuuck I hate their horse racing obsession. There�s a whole contingent of guys at work that talk about it all the loving time, too. It�s so boring.

If anything it�ll be worse with Whateley there

Any word yet on which Melbourne player is a scumbag rapist or do I just have to hate the whole team (moreso than usual)?

I always thought at least part of the reason for its popularity is that you can blame poo poo on the horse and know they won�t squeal when the cops come at you for race fixing.

I could do one pointing out all the ways in which existence generally and football specifically is the worst

�I don�t like the game anymore, I don�t want to work in the AFL system, I don�t want to associate with people. I�m sorry, but that�s the way it is.�

He said, while collecting a paycheque from fox footy to talk about football.

Some sort of involvement in ice distribution seems to be the most agreed upon rumour but the guy who actually knows stuff doesn't have any info. Bomber had a fairly significant cocaine habit for a while so it wouldn't come as a surprise if he ended up doing a bit more than just using.

Based on his tv appearances I�d say �for a while� is less accurate than �to this day�
