Speaking of Robbo, he's just won a flag at Doveton off his own boot in the Southern League: http://www.heraldsun.com.au/leader/localfooty/exafl-star-kicks-the-matchwinner-as-doveton-eagles-grab-premiership/news-story/8c061172b6f6aa05274ca3ea576cb514

I guess you never never know if you never never go

Agree on the humidity point and that was clear from the match against Freo last year. The Darwin game has now been a part of our fixture for the past 8 seasons and the club's fitness staff have clearly learnt a few things about recovery from the match. I honestly would prefer we played all our home games at the MCG but at this stage, the club is making the most of the opportunity to grow the team brand outside of the confines of the Melbourne metro area while providing Darwin with some AFL exposure.

I am a supporter of the Darwin match for a couple reasons. 1. it provides sponsorship dollars with the NT government and helps the club grow while we consolidate membership. The back of jumper sponsorship delays shows that this is still an issue for the club 2. From a fixture POV, If we did not play the games in NT we would be playing 2 more away games interstate. We would not be playing four games in a row at the MCG, we would be more likely to be playing the Crows as the G followed by Port in Adelaide. It's a necessary evil in the meantime while we continue to build the club coffers. Once we get more exposure as a club and better fixtures, the NT games will be less of a requirement in the future. Plus, The Bulldogs are still playing in Cairns http://www.afl.com.au/match-centre/2017/18/wb-v-gcfc

No worries. I actually just watched the highlights on YT and he kicked the goal to put us 16 points up in the 2nd with a young N. Jones getting the kick out of the centre. Feels like a lifetime ago

Neita definitely played, Russian and Whelan missed after being injured in the St Kilda game. Smith came in as the 2nd ruck. http://demonwiki.org/Semi+Final+2006

I think Neita's 600th was in the Semi in 2006 against Freo.

Off the top of my head: Flash's running goal and Yze's boundary goal from the comeback against Freo in 08 Schwarz's baulk in the 94 finals The goal kicked in the 04 demolition of the Blues in 04 (Davey or Bruce?) after two blues ran into each other Neita's goal against the Hawks in 02 after flattening McCabe Jakovich's scissor goal from 91 Leoncelli's winning goal against the Crows in 01 Farmer's big goal from the goalsquare in the Semi against the Saints in 98

All the goals from the win over the Borough:

I agree with you there AF. A bit more 'Around the Club' stuff like other clubs do would be good for the supporters.

The video content is quite good but someone at the AFL or Telstra need to fix the video player. Since they updated it I can barely get it to play in decent quality.

Jayden is on SEN right now chatting to the 'Gladiators'. Sounds confident he'll play next week.
