small story from an well known Adelaide winery when i was a 17 year old cellar hand .......you should make sure when putting carbon dioxide into a 10,000ltr steel vat of 1st drain white wine, not to over gas :$ .......oh well Kane you probably enjoyed the resultant "mutant" Rose wine it became :D

Stuck my head in and took a whiff while doing a stock take at Penfolds when just out of school. Nearly knocked me out. My fear of heights was certainly on trial walking along some of the outdoor walkways. I can't recall the capacity that those tanks were, but they were bloody tall.

The radars have gone off on the Port board and those on duty have been duly dispatched:

Had to get in the 10,000ltr vats to clean out after wine transfer to bottling .......White wine is fine .......red wine skins you need a harness and breathing gear .....it's powerful

Imagine a 6' guy getting into a wine barrel with a 9" high door ....to wash it out

You can understand 2 years was as long as i lasted ......the real reason was though that after vintage, during winter, we had to scrub the whole winery, some with a toothbush, b4 the whole winery was re-painted EVERY year ......hated that job .......decided a corporate role with business lunches was a much better lifestyle decision .....plus the pay was MUCH MUCH better
 
I hear that Chad Wingard had a similar surgery around the same time last year and struggled.
It's not about the one instance of an injury like with Wingard, more the fact that the biggest thing he's been consistent with in footy is getting injured and missing half a year of footy and he's already getting a start on it.
