Just checked the papers and listen to the news, Nothing about missing Crows fan found wandering the streets of Melbourne , or any one found naked tied to a pole outside Flinders st. station so we can only guess you made it to the motel

Maybe he wandered into the Hawks heartland; the body won't be found for weeks..

If you do venture out Hawthorn way, the Geebung hotel was always fairly reliable for some quality spectating. (Although it has been a few years since I did so.)

I wish, I've been at home listening in on the radio. I can't remember the last time I became so emotional over a footy match.

Unfortunately saints really must not care and are getting ready for finals (like bombers in 2000).

But Go bombers anyway.

I cann see where you are coming from but if they really didn't care they wouldn't have come home so hard when we copped injuries. Essendon did care in 2000 too, Sheeds just knew that a loss was needed because we were getting too cocky.

My thanks to RG, woosha, vztrt, 4vman, Teflon turbo, efpwr, tzenu, and all others saying g'day and watching my progress through this great city. I hope you've enjoyed reading as much as I've enjoyed posting. Big mentions to RG and woosha, RG who posted through Friday morning with me, and woosha for his call last night that saved me from the outer suburbs of melbs. I'll do a last few posts tomorrow during the day on my way home. Rest assured I'll be back soon and I'll warn everyone properly so we can catch up properly. Cheers AFF for staying with me!
