2nds VFL Round 1 - Bendigo Gold v Geelong, Queen Elizabeth Oval, 7:00PM Friday 4 April

[Partridge]

*shakes hand with Partridge*
Well that's a friendly conclusion to this discussion, Partridge.
Nice to have chatted!

Yeah- agree with you about people assuming they're mind-readers. Sometimes, though, it's just clumsy wording and I must admit I'm like that with my kids. Saying something as if it's a fact instead of saying "I think..." It makes my daughter a bit mad- then she tells me I'm opinionated

No problem at all.

Now we can hope we get 4 points tomorrow night! You'd think with their injuries they can hopefully get the job done with minimal fuss.

Daz, re: Knights' report, the link you wanted was on the word "here" in the Jester's post. And you can access it if you go back up to your reply.

Or try this link- haven't checked it but got it off Jester's comment:

That was the most covert link I have ever seen - but true thejester words it was there…

I missed it.

Go Catters

I've been following the Cats for my whole life. And one thing (amongst many) I've noticed is that we don't tend to do 'minimal fuss'.

A fuss tends to eventuate one way or the other. Even when we would much prefer it didn't.

Last year's games against the Lions are a good example of games in which supporters less seasoned than us Catters might have expected 'minimal fuss'.

I knew better then, and I know better now.

Like one sage footy philosopher noted on here earlier in the week, this is most definitely the type of game the other team usually wins.

This sage footy philosopher said "often", not "usually".

Fair enough, Fred. You can always trust me to be overly pessimistic.

My apologies for misrepresenting you.

That's OK, the sage footy philosopher bit got you a few brownie Josh Walker points.

Is this another Brown thread?

This sage footy philosopher said "often", not "usually".

Phew!! So glad that got downgraded to "often" but I'd prefer "sometimes" or even perhaps "occasionally".

Obviously David King pops his head in here occasionally and reads the words of this sage philosopher How else would he know to pick the Eagles?

1. It's the Geelong Board, so yes.

2. Done.

3. Now you're just being insulting.
