What a dam shame we got Meth Coke before they left home...

When was the last time we played West Coast at the G?

Fixture indeed.

About a minute before Jeremy Howe’s injury, I was just saying how much we could do with him at Melbourne and how he was far superior to anyone we have in our defence, then ... 

True Jack but let's never forget Howe walked on us. Or at least he and his manager made it impossible for him to stay.

[Little Goffy 13,922]

Starting to look like Charlie Dixon is the standout tall forward of the season, and by a significant margin.

Although, horrifyingly, Ben King might be his main rival at present.

Come on T.Mac, come on Weid, there's a loose All-Australian spot up for grabs for any tall forward who actually kicks goals this year!

About 10 years ago that I remember 

We make up the numbers at present

i would love to put that to the Prez next Wednesday, that must be front and centre in his mind. 
WE have to change... a lot

no fault but our own as we have played them in Darwin and Alice IIRC

Gee west coast cannot wait to get back home.

Also is watts still out with that leg injury from last year when he broke it? 

[Spirit of the Demon 249]

Remind me which team played West Coast this year on their home ground?

Let's remember we tried to get rid of him a year before to GWS.

Dixon is box office when he’s in this mood.

[McQueen 17,864]

We are above west coast on the ladder and played two less games. 
 

Let that sink in. ?

[Little Goffy 13,922]

I just realised that today's games are like some kind of special championship event featuring all the teams where the only thing I care about is the particularly disliked teams losing!

I checked the season guide and sure enough, the AFL have this marked in as 'shaudenfreude round'.

Ports drafting the last few years has been top notch.  They have some serious young talent.

Reckon Rivers, Kozzie and Jackson are our “nailed it at the draft table“ year

Yes.  Just wait til the footy world can see what our kids can do.

We will be the envy of the AFL.

All three of them look exceptional!

[dl4e 5,840]

At least the rich stk game is alright so far. 

[Brownie 5,839]

Saints running hard both ways and good disposal.

What a difference it makes!

Theyre also not having 3 players getting sucked into tackling one opponent.

Go saints.

I'm glad I saw your comment, because I'd written it off and just flicked it on in time to catch the Butler and Bolton goals and for the first time this season outside watching Demons a game is holding my attention!

And they took Duursma,  who would have looked good in RednBlue.

Dean Kent just kicked the sealer for the Saints.

We're not so bad... if Tim Membrey can jag 3 against the reigning premiers...

[dl4e 5,840]

It is hard to pick a winner this season. These shorter quarters are stuffing things up nicely. I don't think we will do any good out of them. We trained well over summer but the fast handballing skills are not there. We would do much better with a normal game time. Hope I am wrong.
