Ignore the Petracca vision, think this was Roos showing them what is ahead, I was surprised when they joined in the repeat running drill, a very harsh introduction, but will do them the world of good, only one not suffering was Billy Stretch who is 2 weeks ahead

Thanks for the sensible reply. I was just asking a simple question about vision that was shown, and commented on, on the news.

Didn't need the faceless wonders to have a crack.

Was it difficult to think up such a profound response? Or did it just flow (like a gift) from your arseh.... intellect?

As a point of reference, i actually despise the use of the word "loser" in modern speech or text.

The Americans are responsible for this shorthand shyte for people who offer thought outside the obvious , or mainstream.

SO we are divided into winners and losers instantly by critics with air time.

It is a term that should only be used to describe sporting results and not individuals.

A term used by illiterates I would think.

Speaking of arses I see Leon Cameron has seen the need to jump to $cully's defence.

Poor possum has been getting a bit of shite about not being worth the big bucks and battling to get a spot in the GWS midfield.

Sure sign of things not being right if the coach has to stick up for you. I notice he said Scully would develop into a good player - hardly seems a ringing endorsement.

My heart bleeds.

I heard a story from the herald sun sports department many years ago, when Lou Richards was still considered a journo.

Piers Akerman apparently said to a manager that he wished to "sack 5 of those fat ugly drunk [censored] from sport"

The manager enquired which five [censored] should be sacked .

Piers rePlied "the last five pigs that turn up to the office today"

None turned up that day so Piers was sacked within the week.

This story was told to me at five am at a " [censored] you Peirs" party in about 1991 .

Accuracy guaranteed.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    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,
