Neeld on SEN:

talking about Watts's ankle. Was supposed to be ready but its a high grade ankle sprain that is taking longer than expected.

Asked about which players are going to be the future - Mentioned 3 - Sam Blease...'he's working hard offensively. Endurance needs improving. Sees a big future. Strauss - sees a big future for him. Sub 3 weeks in a row for a variety of reasons. Jetta - big future. Rushed him straight back in.

Re Beemer. "let's show some energy" His defensive efforts were not good. Carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders. Go back to the VFL and play with some freedom and enjoyment.

Morton - working his way back into form in VFL. Neeld hesitated when answering... He gets asked a lot about Cale a lot. weeks to demonstrate he can get back to form (?) Suggested look beyond his testing and numbers (ie: don't care where he was drafted he needs to do certain things and he clearly isnlt doing them - my interpretation!)

I'm glad to hear Neeld rates my boy Jetta. Watching Cale Morton for the Scorpions isn't filling me with much confidence at all, though.

Stranger things gave happened but I can't see the boys getting anywhere close to the Roos today.

Contested possession will be a highlight with both sides to go very hard. If we do okay out of the middle we will be caught short once again I the forward 50 unless a miracle takes place.

Looking forward to se how big Spencer goes today after Neeld saying he will match up well against Goldstein. A great game will do him wonders.

Moloney will want to prove his worth today. If he fails to fire again then it will be disappointing to say the least after a couple of weeks off, unfortunately just one of playing in the VFL.

Grimes has been playing into some great form and leading the way. Trengove still needs that performance to make us go wow.. Hopefully he pulls it out today.

If we have a chance it will be though Sylvia and Green in attack.

Chip to account for Petrie is our only hope.

Roo's by 38 points.

Not going today. Have a 2,000 word essay on Media Law due on Thursday. Haven't even started. Too many times this season I've compromised my studies to spend a rare free day watching Melbourne lose.

I'll have the tele on though :P

Don't give us a chance today, at all.

But I'd love some of the senior blokes (especially Moloney) to stand up and show some spirit for Greeny's 250th.

My biggest hope is that we only get beaten by a few goals every quarter rather than get smashed in 1-2 quarters, can't stomach another week of MFC talking about how "4 quarter efforts".

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full
