No doubt he will kill them this week, bringing you another WIN.Gee would love to place you in the lower deck, but think you will belt me again.Loosing Hille, Ball, Gray, and this week SJ really puts me behind the ball game.Also, doing this from Japan, is really hard work.

anyhow, enough excuses.Your odds on and I would not back myself.Your ruckman will win it for you, great strategy having two good ruckman whom gain lots of possessions.Just hope I make it interesting.Take pity on me, please

I have lost Yarran to injury, and Shueys shoulder may seem him out as he is EIC.

50/50 in my opinion. My defence is weak and the team managed only 2.10 last week.

You're red hot favourite in scoring terms. And already in front on tackles. Facing an uphill task to get the 4 points this week.

Loving the mind games going on between you 2 Shrewd coaches.

You are the favourite~ No you are?

I am the underdog - No it's me facing an uphill task.

Line ball decision for mine - Shuey playing or not might just decide the contest

Agree. And if I was Worsfold I wouldn't play him if they are leaving it until morning of match to test.

Scales tipped in JCB's favour.

But with the odds and your playing list you are a cert, if I had of been able to playHille, Ball, Gray but I suppose it is only a game but gee I'd luv to beat HT. Believe me!

What's with the stupid Waiver system this year?

I can't remember having to battle through this red tape last year?

If we needed to top up a player after selection we simply recruited them from the player market.

& the players we bidded for earlier in the week have gone from April 27 to May 1 on the waiver system?

What am I missing here? Was this the same in season 2011?

Ruddy hard work isn't it.R U back from USA ?

We play each other next week and I'm away in Japan.You may gain a walkover so I'll have to,no really have to try to put High Tower into the allowed Deck, being the Lower type but very very doubtful.But gee I'll be giving it everything.

Oh well, there is that too. But I'm actually hoping he will contribute to scoring given Clark's absence. If I'm to bury you, I may as well make a good impression....

Edit: Fwiw you have never given me heartburn JCB.

Why do people continue to believe that there are "mind games" going on between coaches? I get that people want to believe that this is the next best thing to AFL coaching, but honestly, are you really going to not pick you best players because the opposition coach says he thinks he may lose?

You are a sad case as you are a looser- you wouldn't know- remember Kevin Sheedy or Malthouse in their prime.You are totally correct, but to me, it is a bit of fun.I, actually have a lot of time and respect in HT, a hell of a lot more than some others.

It's so difficult. Is this more example of said mind games?

no - just admitting one opponent is a nemesis that I just cannot beat. One needs to admit, if someone is better.That is how,I play the game.But don't worry to much for me, I will get trounced this week, but will bounce back, hope you have a great year yourself.At least I am in front in the tipping part.Where are you ?no where as usual.

I'm usually no where? That's pretty hard to do.

8-7 win and out of form. Reid, Smith and Shuey will need to pull their finger out next week v The Wreckers.

In fact, the changes may have to come early and they can be held accountable, won't stand for that crap and cost me % big time. Could have buried Mr Mind Games JCB.

SMaRT move that.

2.8 and 2.4 in two successive weeks has been the return. FMD. Not good enough.

HT Hurricanes brains trust need a re-think and we're 3-2 after 5.

Will listen to trades people. Several of my players on notice. Send the offers through.

5 Rounds down & Team OMR is in big strife.

Fire Sale Time before the season slips to far away.

Swanny excluded (every other player is up for grabs)

Deals must be completed before Wednesday to take effect for this weekend.

Every offer looked @ if the team balance is there I am pulling the trigger.

So far in 2012 my trading has been a disaster for myself, every player I have traded is now in the top 100, so there is a fair chance

you will significantly improve your side.

You don't know how good you have got it?

I would kill for just a single hit out - Haven't seen one since round 3

Was so happy when I was checking my matchups and saw McCauley had been put in, otherwise I rely on Stanley's 8 hit outs haha

Was watching the west coast v Richmond match hoping Marci didn't get 5 more hit outs in the last 7:35 left on the clock! Haha. The gf was freaked out when I was celebrating nicnat getting a hit out as I usually hate him!

Wow. How quickly the wheels can fall off! Well done Wacko! Coming at you this week RPFC. Hopefully Selwoods out!

Nah, thankfully the tribunal has a Star Player Innocence Card © enabled. Geelong has about 5...

Late changes are still killing me - Porpoise a late change, and his back up Polkinghorne also a late change.

If I ever meet Polkinghorne in the street, I'd hit him! It's a good thing I haven't a clue what he looks like...

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
