Rutten is "reinjuvenated" according to Richo.

Adelaide are goin to be a very hard team the next few years. Lots of G&D.

I still weep when I think that we passed over Rioli .........

Well done Hawks

Should be another cracker next Saturday. I hope that Richards gets up

CH 7 are awful. BT is awful. His snide asides to Richo are just annoying and his commentary makes 'banal' and 'insightless' look like endearing qualties.

Cameron Ling is the only part of the telecast that is bearable. Turn off the sound, listen to the radio

Unfortunately where I live at least, the radio is a few seconds ahead of the pictures. Just enough to mean you know the outcome of a kick or play before you see it happen. That makes it unworkable.

the TV stations do that on purpose for that very reason.

I cannot stand BT I could list 10 adjectives to describe him

However why did he keep saying " Hawthorn need to hang on here when they were in front in the last quarter.

Something Richmond cannot do"

With respect to Richmond what the hell does a side that could not finish no higher than 12th

have to do with a preliminary final last night?

Moron is the first word that comes to mind.

What about BT trying to explain the fireworks? Apparently they were "practising for the Show" (which started today) "by the Yarra" (even though there was a big fk off commission flat next door).

Yeah .... He lost me there completely. I have never heard of fireworks practice - has anyone else?

He was saying that during the game too.

That'd be the only place.

Got narky in the Brownlow interview with Lingy when they suggested he was running in the GF sprint off 40m - everyone else had the [censored] taken in good spirit (see lie-detector) but he couldn't handle it. Total (short) [censored].

Remember Mike Williamson. Now there was a man who knew how to call a game.

Superb.

... and was it Alf Potter who knew how to produce football coverage and with less cameras than we have now he didn't manage to lose the ball. A good feel for the game.

i don't know why you guys get so hot under the collar, just turn down the telly and listen to the slightly out of sync ABC774. after all, you are not listening to sandy grandstanding roberts, Peter i'll tell you what you can already see landy or mike i tipped this williamson. bt is one of the few remaining eccentrics on the box so just leave him there.

must agree. BT say's it how it is. he's ok. i usually listen to the first half on 774 then switch over to bt for the second half. the 7 team have surprised me or perhaps more so ch 7 for recruiting such an interesting bunch. i also particularly like the Rhonda ad.

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play
