Notice how Watts cops it for their last goal yet it was Vince who went to ground easily that gave them the extra man to set it up... yet no-one cracks it about that.

Very happy with our ins so far today, Gawn giving us a target, Barry and Michie getting their hands on the pill, Cross is just fantastic... we are having a dip, no doubt about it, which is pleasing to see. Just need to keep it up now.

In years one by we would have been six goals down by now. We're no chance to win, but anyone who thinks we haven't improved is flat out wrong.

OUT: Watts, M. Jones; anyone who can't kick.

IN: Hogan, anyone who CAN kick.

Things will be better from now on.

Reasonably encouraging. Good first 10 minutes but then we let the floodgates open a little bit. A couple late goals helped a lot. Cross makes a world of difference while Watts is um.....well no.

Probably because Vince doesn't do it every time he goes near the ball.

Puts Watts in the goal square! He's just no good around the game if we can't get the space and win the stoppages. Play him out of the bloody square! We have no targets going forwards!

Trust me when I say I'm not a Watts apologist, far from it, but I was far more annoyed at Vince going to ground and allowing Stratton to waltz up the field to set up an easy goal. I know Watts ended up being involved in the chain but the contest was long gone by the time he could have had an impact on it.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    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,
