Going to a Refused sideshow for Good Things would be incredible but my main priorities are Knocked Loose (w/High Vis) and New Found Glory. Never listened to High Vis before now and they’re rad. Very interesting that they’re with KL and not Refused tbh.

Looking forward to watching all the highlights from Rd1 of the Australian Championship. Anyone know if SBS will put together a full package?

There’s probably one somewhere, but not this. It was a full blown pet shop with birds and rabbits and everything.

Anyone else remember when Mad Mex was at Southern Cross? Those were the days.

Why is there a pet shop at Queen Vic Market?

Delivery driver just got doored by a Tesla while riding in a designated bike lane along William St. Tesla driver “you were going very fast” and I yelled out “it’s a bike lane, check before you open the doors, it’s on you, not them.”

In what world should the Victorian Government fork out $1billion for the MCG to get an extra 5k seats?

Are you telling yourselves to stop using AI images? You didn’t have to use the image…?

I guess it’s to get more people to the first home game?

Yup, that’s where I was at with it too. Victory are $125 which I thought was steep but I’ve just discovered that MelbCity are charging $140 to non-members and $126 to members.

Thoughts on the training kits being $100?

Not long enough at all surely. At least not to be starting. Coming off the bench maybe.

Do we really want Mary back so soon? How much football will she have played before the tournament?

I’m very happy that she’s there though. When there’s 4-5 keepers in the squad it’s whatever, but being the 3rd choice is a good sign.

Sydney Olympic changing their logo during Round 2 of the Australian Championship is a choice. I get that it’s a home game for them etc but surely it’d have been better to do a pre-season launch event where they revealed it?

A-Leagues Insta posts about Victory’s 20k members and mentions the men and women were both grand finalists last season. Only comment so far?

“Come on you Melbourne Victory boys”

Smdh.

They’ve said “just a lil fun 🤷‍♂️” but that makes zero sense to me from a communication/design perspective haha. Ah well

Set myself the goal of not buying any more books this year…I’ve only bought 5 I think, all second hand. But the number of library books I’ve been borrowing has never been higher and the number of books I already own that are getting read hasn’t changed a bit 😂🤦‍♂️
