Why wouldn't I be serious?

Because if you were serious you would know Hogan has issues with his back not his knees :P 

 

The lesson learnt from the Doggies success tells us to not rely too heavily on any one player.  They withstood injury after injury this year and still managed to win a flag. The idea that Max going down or Jesse doing his knee tolls the death knell is simplistic, unhelpful and frankly unrealistic.  Good teams do not look at their list this way.

The Saints are still in dire straits.

$17.1 M in AFL distributions (biggest amount outside GWS and GC )

A $5M grant to relocate to Moorabbin.  (Then they've had to write off  $4M or so on the Seaford venture, with probably more to come.) That accounts for their $1.1M "profit" this year.

With a $3.2M commercial bill due to be repaid by the end of 2017.

 

 

How are your whipping boys the moighty Toigs looking George?

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

  • GAMEDAY: Geelong

    It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

  • PREVIEW: Geelong

    "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.
