Richmond FC is becoming the new rehab wing of the Epworth Hospital.

Epworth is a very decent hospital indeed. Clean modern rooms, the linen doesnt stink and the food is edible and that Doc is about a 10,000% improvement on what you get at any public hospital  ;D

Since when did you start bed sniffing in hospitals Ramps?

4 stints in hospital this year already and the public system is a disgrace. food crap, the bed linen stinks of being burned, the rooms are old the facilities are generally shizen. I highly recommend everyone get themselves private health cover at least if you get sick you dont have to put up with 3rd world standards. Last week I was in epworth, it was almost like having your own apartment, everything was clean, the food was ok, the room was excellent, tv, phone, the only thing I didnt get to have was a group of strippers to come in and provide some entertainment in my time of need  ;D

I agree Jack, sublime skills to boot......something we don't have an abundance of.  Better than keeping King or A.Edwards on our list.  Higgins has actually had a an injury free year to date, played 15 games

Knights played a full season in the SANFL the year before we recruited him.

And that was on Doctor's orders otherwise you would have needed to be transferred to the Cardiac Dept of the nearest public hospital and they know how you wouldn't have coped with that!

Back to the topic ppl.


UP IN THE AIR

Shaun Higgins (restricted), Western Bulldogs
Higgins has put contract talks with the Bulldogs on hold until the end of this season, but his manager Bruce Kaider says the defender remains committed to negotiating with the Dogs before entertaining opposition interest. Make no mistake, there is rival interest in Higgins, with at least four other clubs having already put their hats in the ring. Higgins' decision might come down to the length of his new contract rather than remuneration. We understand the Bulldogs have offered Higgins a two-year deal, but he would prefer a longer contract. Rival suitors will be mindful Higgins, 26, has had his share of injuries over his career, but might be prepared to make a long-term commitment given his class. The defender's recent demotion to the VFL will have no bearing on his decision, but he is no more than a 50/50 chance to stay at the Whitten Oval.

Ramps, before your next visit make sure you upgrade to Hospital plus extras and you will be sorted. Whatever you do though, on the admission form do not select the "Collingwood Package" as this is what you will get......

I work in the public health system too. Blame the government for cutting funds every time someone new gets elected. As for 3rd world hospitals , mate , you clearly haven't been in one of those. They make ours look like the Hilton.

 Back on topic - Shaun Higgins is a broken down hack. I'll be filthy if we go after him.

No he didn't actually, missed half a dozen games in 2012.

The problem with this isn't Higgins it is the crap choices before him.

If we didn't Have Thomas, Edwards, A, Stephenson, Hampson, Knights on the list as older players picked from other teams then no-one would mind too much and Higgins is a much better player than any of them.
