I don't know if this has been raised in other posts but I don't know why we only had two players with a glove on on Saturday night.

In such slippery conditions you'd think it would be a directive from the coaches to wear a glove. It seemed to be the case with the majority of Port players wearing a glove.

    Ohhhhhhhhh that's why we lost...

    Not Bailey, Morton, Moloney, Schwabb, Pendergrast, Spencer, Trengove, Scully, or one of the other million reasons that people here put up every day...

    We have played up there three years in a row. I expect that the coaches and the players would have weighed up the options and gone with what they thought was best.

    Fascinating new thread.

    Surely we just need to sack Neeld, Missen, the Board and 50 PC of our list, and buy them all gloves and the 2013 flag is a gimmee!!!!!

    I suspect he brought it up because Harford and Connolly briefly discussed it this afternoon on SEN. They seemed surprised that not many of our players wore them, but plenty of the Port players did.

    We lost because we have too many footballers with too little talent. Although I know that's a concept that some of you struggle with.

    I had a few problems getting my head round this ensemble at first, but it's got definite potential as an away strip.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
