Viney - set the tone 

he cracked in harder than anyone in the first and tackled like a maniac. The first half could have been very different without him setting the example of intensity

*i am aware of his failings

I love the Fridge line QBD - 

Is it my TV or does Fridge always kick to the right goal post and miss by a metre?

Rated players as above 

Weid was the biggest disappointment today. Jogged and tossed it in for many contests. Was soft today. 
 

Smith and Spargo should pack their bags. Ridiculously poor

Agree re Tomlinson. He has been solid since going down back. His disposal efficiency is fantastic. He is looking like a good pickup.

Rivers? First year player is a great pick and is a real long term talent. Plays with poise, can kick and looks like he wants to improve. What did you expect from him?

We score bigger scores when he plays, 2 goals 5 score involvements, 1 goal assist. Did someone say he hurt himself in the second half?

    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,

    TRAINING: Tuesday 28th May 2024

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full
