He should buy a lotto ticket if he fell 25 metres on land with little injuries.
So you've seen everything have you?
Yep
Have you ever seen a man eat his own head?
No
Well you haven't seen everything then have you.

I thought I'd been close but never to the extent of Majak and other cases. I've driven a car, pissy straight toward a stobie pole and backed out. There are multiple reasons for this, but I'm not going into it here. I think the fact that I was ONLY pissed saved me. If I had mind altering substances combined with the alcohol I might've gone through with it. (not that I would've known)

I have empathy for Majak and others but I really don't know what to say or do. I think that's the issue too!

Would be a huge slap in the face to Origin footy.

Let that concept (sadly) rest peacefully.

News through that Tom Mitchell has been taking by ambulance from Hawthorn training to hospital with a broken leg ... Massive blow, hopefully it's a clean break (or whatever is the right words for "not a bad/complicated break")

Sounds like a pretty bad break, my first thought was he'll still be ok for round 1.

From Fox Sports.

To all our beloved fans and members, I just wanted to thank everyone for their love and support over the past month.

The circumstances surrounding my incident have been extremely challenging for my family, friends and anyone that knows me for that matter.

I’m making huge strides with my recovery, both physically and mentally.

I have been blessed with a second chance at life.

My attitude and outlook towards everything has improved.

I hope to be back out there playing in the blue and white stripes soon.

Thank you all for respecting my need for privacy and for giving me the chance to get better going forward.

Majak Daw
HOGG SHIELD DIVISION V WINNER 2018.
