Ain't much if it ain't Dutch

I firmly believe that the sillier the product involved in tulipomania, the better. Beanie babies were a good one. But here in Brisbane a while back, we saw the ludicrous rise of an ostrich economy (I shit you not!) before it inevitably collapsed in on itself. I'm not sure why the ostriches make it so funny, but that fact is irrefutable.

I was panic buying Devils's Cut actually. I figured if im stuck at home it might be an essential item

I am also going to panic buy some alcohol.

Melbourne might get a bit of a breeze tonight, you never know.

Better to be safe than sorry after all.

Gee up for sure.

Doesn't make a difference it will be a spot killed off because there's no one worth getting. Maybe Frawley in case he gets a couple more games

Jrey to be the scapegoat toward the back half of the season and Frawley to play 7-8 games is Rev's longshot.
With Hasler rumours and Jrey contract rumours its all lubed up.

I understand it, as I'm pretty close to doing it myself.

No doubt part of it is getting caught up in group think, who doesn't love a bit of deluded mass hysteria

But also, sometimes you just need to take a risk, and CHN seems as good as any that might appear.
The other option is really just sitting around and hoping for an injury to thrust some other unknown into the limelight.

Love the Tulip Mania reference. Great stuff!
Count me in on the mania. I'm not missing out on my slice of that action!

On his Panthers profile CHN names Elijah Taylor as his idol Beating Heart

That's reason enough for me to trade him in. The guy obviously has great taste.

Can't decide between Talakai, Kelly or Suli for Slater? Any suggestions?
