Your constant disinvestment would be far more believable if it wasn't so constant. :lol:

You do spend a lot of time stating that you don't give a shit.

Synbad?

Are you trying to Cret me?

Why don't you just give a shit about something for once.

Try it.

You might enjoy yourself.

Lol. If I was to be "serious" or "give a shit" about football, which lets face it is a sideshow in all of our lives, akin to Hollywood, I wouldn't be wasting my time here. I'd be "taking it seriously" somehow and making it my life.

But I figure you're smarter than your post above and know all this already.

Would you want him straight back in the side after his last month?

Great skills on show between our next opponent and Sydney.

It will be much of the same on Friday night.


That's our next two opponents.

Maybe. Maybe not. He hasn't been playing well this year, but I would just like to know when he's available again for selection.

It's not "my life" by any stretch but I do care about my club and my emotional investment over four decades. I'm okay with the fact that I can care about random things outside of my control.

So if you can acknowledge that you don't "give a shit" then why do you even come here?

That's pretty perverse.

Rubbish. It's entertainment. I come "here" because it's part of the entertainment, not because I have to be some emotional wreck because things don't go to script, just like when they kill off a character in Neighbours and I may or may not go all woe is me. It's fun and dire all at the same time, but not that important really.

Seriously. I know you're taking the piss and it's a shame I'm indulging you.

I clicked on the pre-match thread but fell into a Woody Allen movie about nihilism

Yeah, it's all very bleak.

FWIW, in response to your earlier post, I would try Dick as that 3rd tall who can offer a bit of run. He's no world beater, but probably ahead of Fields at the moment. Everitt is one of many who appears lost at the moment, but he looks better to me when he's up around the wing and pushing forward. So assuming Hendo, Jamo, Simmo & Cripps get up, but Walker doesn't, I would try-

B: Simmo Jamo Dick
HB: Tuohy Rowe Yarran
C: Everitt Judd Docherty
HF: Bell Hendo Graham
F: Armfield Casboult Tutt

R: Wood Gibbs Murphy
Inter: Cripps Curnow Thomas
Sub: Menzel

In: Cripps, Graham, Hendo, Jamo, Simmo
Out: Carrots, Ellard, Jaksch, Watson, White

We'll get closer to the Cats than we did to GWS FWIW.

I won't be either way...until I see a bit of seriousness in the club , I won't be going.....in fact I don't know why anyone would?

Being taken for a fool and being ripped off of my hard earned isn't easily forgotten

3 certainties in life

1. Death
2. Taxes
3. Watson will be dropped this week

By the way everyone, just letting you all know that I'm not going to the game...in case anyone gave a shit about it

This Carlton side looks Punchdrunk. Totally scatterbrain, no confidence ,no idea of the match plan, devoid of confidence. I can not honestly believe what i am seeing. running around like chooks without heads.
Please dont pick guys who will not be the future, past it already..why do we persist with it?
