@MikeCarlton01 @MikeCarlton01 This move should lift the average IQ of both Libs and ON.

@EmlynBreese I grew up with 2 versus in the 60’s and I have been waiting for years for it to come back. I love it. Not sure how the younger Cats fans feel about it but majority decides in my opinion. But I do not care how non Cats people feel about it.

@FootyRhino Barlow to Bateman, Hawthorn are progressing alphabetically - my all time favourite

[John Pollard @johnpollard58]

@1116sen @SENBreakfast I actually agree with Gaz on this

[John Pollard @johnpollard58]

[John Pollard @johnpollard58]

@davisjarrafooty Agreed. A whole field view from behind the goals especially.

Breaking.

Albo picks ScoMo for the Washington gig to be US Ambassador to replace KevO.

‘This will save us considerable money as he will also be the Ambassador for the UK, France, NATO, Germany, Spain, Switzerland, Belgium, Japan, Mexico , Canada and The Netherlands’

At no point during the five-year span that Monty Python's Flying Circus aired on the BBC, from October 1969 to December 1974, could the greatest comedic minds of their time come up with a skit more grotesquely absurd than Trump placing a fake peace-prize medal over his own head.

@Lottie8053 @MichaelPascoe01 @BrianWardhaugh @AmyRemeikis My hand is up Lottie ! I am 100% a member of this cohort.

@tom_king79 Soon to be ‘over 80’s’. I am only a couple of years off 70 and I have been one the loudest many times over the years ‘Alice ?Alice ? who the …………..’

[John Pollard @johnpollard58]

@AmyRemeikis @mpbowers I am 3 yrs older than Mike. I too have the same memories of these events. I did Politics as a year 12 subject in ‘76. Most of the curriculum was around the ‘constitutional crisis’ but I now know the Christian Brothers did not tell the full story. Alas so typical of my education.

@abcsport 1980’s last session on ABC TV on Saturdays. Bruce Reid and Stump Laird were walking out to resume WA innings after tea. The commentator said ‘Reid and Laird coming in to bat, Reid is the one without the helmet’

@ToffeeBoy14 @tom_king79 @KrockFootball Dusty needed no help to look good. He could do that all by himself no matter the opponent. Especially in GF’s

[John Pollard @johnpollard58]

@ToffeeBoy14 @tom_king79 @KrockFootball I suggest you have a close watch of the 2022 GF. Rhys played a very important role. Some great individual efforts and a very underrated performance.

[John Pollard @johnpollard58]

@1116sen This is the exact reason why I was so angry when Colbert left Geelong. If there is any chance you might leave do not accept Captaincy. He was captain for a season and was played one game as captain before he did his knee. Yes it was 26 years ago and no I am not over it yet.

[John Pollard @johnpollard58]

@CroftyV1 @rhettrospective Yep me too. If my memory serves me correctly a young Barry Stoneham kicked one from the boundary late in the last q to put us 9 points up. 2 mins later, 2 centre bounces and two Haw goals and we were out of the finals. The outer stood in silent disbelief when the siren sounded.
