I dunno, I still have some residual Caro appreciation from her succinct and cutting putdown of the HTB types a few weeks ago.
I must have missed that one.

Maybe my memory is a bit crappy but didn't Rama's comeback coincide with Ben Cousins comeback after his ban? I reckon they were pretty close if not the same round at least the following week, I remember people making the comments that we were welcoming back a hero and they were welcoming back a junkie.

FWIW the goal Rama kicks in that game is one of the best moments I've experienced at the footy.

In fairness though, it's hard to be angry at a guy who has this at the end of his columns:

I didn't see that but I reckon I would too. I stopped listening during the "hectoring fish-wife" stages of the saga as her vitriol became too much for me.
"Hectoring fishwife" was Bruce Francis' most significant contribution to the saga.

Rama could've been anything before that campaigner of a disease got him.

In 2001 or 2002 I recall Hird was asked in an interview where he thought Rama would be in 3 years time and without hesitation Jimmy said he'd be among the best 5 midfielders in the comp.

The way Rama was tracking across 2000 to 2002 I have little reason to doubt Hird either.
