Scene : All Australian Night
Clinton Grybas: in light of whats happened in the last 24hrs, Carlton offered you $4m for 4yrs, how close were you to leaving?

Pav: Not close at all, I’m the captain of this footy club and whilst we’ve had a tumultous year, we’ve still got a lot to achieve in the future and the boys 100% behind Harvs!!!

mmmmm…..

From the pen of Jason Chatterfield Cartoon

I am really enjoying church at the moment.
As I am speaking through the series on ‘who is Jesus’ it seems that God is speaking to me and revealing things to me that I had never considered before, or perhaps, had just not stopped to think about.
Jesus got mad, really mad.
I spoke from Mark 2, and the story of how Jesus got in trouble with the Pharisees because the disciples were picking grain on the Sabbat. Jesus brushes aside their concerns by referring to the precedent of David and the Holy bread. But I finished my message referring to the next story in Mark 3, where Jesus heals the man with the crippled hand, on the Sabbath, in direct, public, defiance of the mean spirited Pharisees. The Bible says he got mad, and the anger was something that was deep within him. What a hero!!

“He looked around at them angrily and was deeply saddened by their hard hearts. Then he said to the man, “Hold out your hand.” So the man held out his hand, and it was restored!”

Judd has announced he is returning back to Victoria….cant blame him really, considering the culture at West Coast. Chris seems to me to be a decent, really decent, hard working bloke. Why would he want to stay at West Coast???

I cheered on Collingwood tonight…..thats once for the season…..
no more…thank goodness..

Go Geelong…..

Intense game…very intense. You could tell that WC were running out of legs by the end of the 4th quarter, and Collingwood’s running and pressure was going to get them over the line.
Amd Worsfolds decision to take Glass and Cox off the ground was quite puzzling..why didn’t he go for the jugular when he had the chance? In my view, they could have built a match winning lead…but instead, when those two were off, Rocca kicked two quick goals, and the Pies were back in it!
Great game by both sides though, have to admit W Toast were brave, this week and last…but out in straight sets for the finals. Not often a top four side do that! Straight to Bali for the boys….End of an era…..cant say I am sorry, because I am not…..Now to see whether Judd will re-sign, whether Cousins will resign, and whether the biggest liar….Chick, will get a late reprieve.

Am waiting for my Five Senses coffee to arrive, a Australian single origin from Capricorn Estate this time, and I was dying (literally…ask my wife if you dont believe me) for a coffee so I picked up some Fiori Beans from Fresh Provisions.
These were from Hondorus….and it appears to be Fair Trade Coffee. This is the nation of the child I sponsor, so I picked them on that basis alone.
It is a deep dark rich, almost oily bean…..and nice and strong.
After a fair old grind with my new burr type machine, the Latte was made…..beautiful.
