The interview
Carlton was worse against Melbourne than they were against Essendon. Too much fumbling, dropped marks and turnovers. A complete lack of run and urgency. They looked lost in space and played without confidence.
Melbourne finally had a forward line. James Frawley took 12 marks and kicked two goals. Chris Dawes, in his first game for the year, kicked a couple of goals.
Name dropping – me and John Harms
About 150 students waited in the amphitheatre. There was a lot of chatter. John Harms was grinning and talking to the lecturer. Harms, as the guest star, was about to offer his career to the students.
The lecturer, a woman who wrote a novel about infanticide, gave Harms a solid introduction.
