•July 9th, 2012 - "Blues to lament the one who got away" - The Age

Not for the first time Luke Darcy making disparaging comments about Carlton
without doing his homework first. (We didn't "let" Jacobs go).

Speaking of media, I notice quite a lot bully-sympathy for that mongrel Wellingham
over the past few days. Martin Blake, (TheAge), wrote an entire article about what
a victim he was. . I'm staggered that he got the same penalty for breaking a
jaw that Judd got for lightly putting hand on a Lions face. But of course the media
turned on Judd.

That's quite an impressive list Wookie.
