Fabulous news
Don't confuse your current path with your final destination. Just because it's dark and stormy now doesn't meant that you aren't headed for glorious sunshine!

If obtaining Malthouse was the masterstroke of his Presidency hopefully this is viewed as Ed's greatest masterpiece in the years ahead.

Great coup. His skills in recruiting and not getting rolled during trade week are extraordinary. Excited.
