Actually, I often find that I have a "purer" appreciation of a game when Geelong is not playing - less anxiety, and more dispassionate appreciation of the game...

Which is probably why she went unnoticed among a crowd of Christians.

No live showing here. Maybe on the digital channels, but I don't have a set-top box, so no joy there.

It'll be on the radio, I suppose. I'll go check the ABC (pretty much the only radio I listen to... I cannot understand why people who listen to commercial stations that always play the same goddamn music and have ad breaks every five seconds complain to me that the ABC is boring. I like to fucking think! you retards!)

Sorry, tangent.

Nice little bit of revenge for the Cats last night with an 8 point win over last year's premiers, the Hawks (although we kicked atrociously... :nono: )
