Lots of stresses and tensions flow through our site. Sometimes it is a good idea to try and understand that there are other ways to get a kick out of life besides football alone. A balanced perspective. We are walking to the time of year when great disappointments may make your life miserable. 30 + whatever years without a premiership there are some good medications to see things differently.{other than alcohol?}

    • Tad, life hasn't been good to me in the last 10years but I've never lost my sense of humour weird as it may be. At my age waking in the morning is a huge bonus. This song sums it up for me

      • That is the song and version I have picked for my funeral. 

        • Fuck bro,  and here I was telling the mrs I want 2 live crew just to stir it up a bit.

        • Slugg, MyBob, loved that. Touching. Beautiful. 

          Music is often better at expressing what we want to say than words.

          • Nice song o reflect on HOE particularly thinking of the hopelessness in many people's lives who have lost everything. Floods at Lismore and War in Ukraine.Makes me feel guilty that I am powerless to do anything meaningful to help.

      • Thanks for putting that up Slugg.Wonderful unicorn song which brings a tear to my eye thinking of all the people that I have lost that have had a big impact on my life. Stay strong mate.The world can be a very lonely place for older people with health issues in particular. Hoping our little one-eyed community can give you the opportunity to share your thoughts on many issues that pop up.

        • Thanks Taddles, I’m a tough old bastard I’ve had a few health issues but I never let them get me down. Occasionally I get a bit misty when I look at mrs Sluggs  photo, 50 years in a long time. 1EE has helped me cope I’ve made friends I’ll never see and some that I have. Parramatta Tragic came down to visit a couple of weeks ago he brought cakes an chocolates. If my thoughts fail me I've always got the yawning pig

          • I remember that song very well Slugg.  Music with a story to tell and comforting to listen to

    • Yes Slugg music and the creative struggles in process behind the scenes is giving purpose to one's life. Listening to it is a temporary relief from ills life can throw at you.We are So lucky to have lived through the early Beetles era.

"No they don't Mick. EA had the right of it. Jim was selected on the NSW Cup bench with the intent to play minimal (in this case zero) minutes, because they had to pick 17 players and they didn't want to weaken the Flegg team."

"We would be no different to the dogs and Galvin if we chase Pezet. Galvin is a 5/8, trying to turn him into a 7. Pezet is a 7, and everyone wants to turn him into a 6."

"To early to say if Galvin made the right or wrong decision.
It doesn't look good now but down the track who knows.
Where he's playing now I think in 4-5 years time he'll be a 13 he's still got plenty of physical and mental maturity to add before…"

"We were prepared to offer Galvin similar. Whilst I totally agree with your assessment of a million bucks being huge overs , unfortunately I think it's what our shit recruitment team need to offer to entice anyone half decent to consider us. "

"One of Pezet's biggest strengths  is his kicking game. Looking at how dominant Mitch is I would imagine they would clash.
Even though I like Pezet, I feel like we need a running 5/8 to complement Mitch's game so it provides diffuses of attack.…"

"If we chased Burton I'd have him at centre. He's a big body out wide but can also drift in around the ruck as another 5/8 option, one each side of the ruck. He looked more dangerous in the centres last night than he has at 5/8 recently "
