I hope not either
Just wondering if things like that are. Seems strange that 2 brothers would have 6 knee ops between them at such a young age

No history of knee issues on his Dads side that I'm aware of, one of the few things on my body that's always been fine.

George Horlin-Smith is the NAB Rising star nominee for Round 4, after a brilliant game on Friday night.

What an awesome game from the hyphen. There has been a lot of hype about GHS on the Cat boards but I thought that Murdoch in particular had shown much more. Murdoch got more of a go but seemed lost out there and GHS played a blinder against the Swannies. Caddy looks all right as well so the next midfield is starting to take shape.

I reckon Bicslavs can be anything as well....except a Ruckman LOL.

Love the look of the stadium.
Look forward to getting along there one day. High on my to-do list.

There's only 5 teams in the comp that have their own stadiums: Geelong, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sydney and GWS.

It's a real shame I reckon.
I'd love to see North, St Kilda or the Bulldogs go back to a 'boutique stadium' for matches not against the bigger clubs.
What Geelong has with its own stadium is great.
There wouldn't be too many major sporting teams around the world that share a stadium. Certainly not 3-4 like we have at Etihad/MCG.
