I was listening to the second quarter on the radio on the way home. Sounded like Jack Watts squibbed one in our goalsquare right before Port got a run on. What say the folks who are seeing the game?

All things considered it sounds like we're back to playing good football, but I'm worried about Port's fitness. They've been finishing very strongly and if they are close going into the final quarter they could overwhelm us.

Why on earth did we drop Dunn and bring in Wonna who is not fit.

Dunn is another big mark in the forward line and we went for a slow, unfit, injury prone forward for reasons beyond getting the best team on the park.

I'm glad Watts is proving the doubters wrong. Kick a bag son!

If Naitanui played the first half Jack Watts just played, the media would go into general meltdown.

No, Jack has put his body on the line on every occasion. Has actually been very good with his hands in the pack.

He could have gon a bit lower at the ball deep fwd and gave away a free but it was no squib.

It got nothing to do with precedent. Well done.

Miller with 3 to half time is a good effort.

I dont get the first bit..? Of course it does.. if ive never offered advice before, so how could i be considered the 'last' person to be dishing it out??

anyway..

No-one said his 3 goals wasnt a good effort. It is.. But its a step back to have to have him in the team again.

..and to say a half of good footy in how many YEARS from him, should make posters 'blush' for calling it as they see it in the past, is just ridiculous..

he hasnt gotten the best out of himself and is lucky to be on an afl list, even you could see that rhino..

well, maybe demon_rolleyes.gif

3rd qtr starting.. C M O N D E E S ! ! ! !

Miller should be dropped more often if he kicks 4 goals on return.

Still I dont see him as part of our future.

This is one game. In Darwin.

He has been such a waste for so long one good performance wont get me putting him in our Grand Final side.

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
