TC, The swan down cushions will be reserved for the front seats that are upholstered in tiger pelts.

As for Mr. Wells, I do not think it is HG. I believe I saw Mr.Wells brother in a movie many years ago', First name 'Oceans'.

CHF pleasing news on the furnishings front but totally perplexed ? on the identity of the mysterious ‘Mr Wells’. The answer must exist somewhere in the ether between George Clooney and the Invisible Man?

    A full defensive effort and not letting them get a hot start is important.  The challenge for us is matching the midfield.  IF we can win or halve the midfield and apply our pressure, we are better forward than they are back, and better back than they are forward.  Papley kept quiet, Hickey and Kennedy nullified and BBB to kick a BBBag.

    They lost nearly every stat but still won last week against the slowing Cats.  They wont get that luxury this week.  Expect we will take the game by 50-70 points.

    In their last four games they fell in against Essendon, lost to GWS, got thumped by Gold Coast and absolutely burgled that win against Geelong.

    With Fritta beating the charges and trak a dee for life, the lid will be off at the G on Sat night.

    Dees by six goals. Bathwater Express rolls on.

    True true. I think we will handle them comfortably.

    Would be nice to have a great start and be up 5 goals at quarter time, we haven't done that this season.

    Gee, there are some super confident posters on here. We cant keep winning forever. If Sydneys IN'S are 100% fit its going to be close. If  Buddy and Rampe breakdown we should win.Weve lost 2 key players.

    Does anyone the stats on our best start to a season? How many did we win in 1965? What year did we win 8 in a row etc? 

    Won our first 8 games in 1965.   Not sure if thats our record.

    Had a quick look and I see we won our first 13 games in 1956.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #32 Tom Sparrow

      The rugged Sparrow’s career appears to have plateaued in recent years. He makes the side on a week to week basis but he is unable to establish a foothold in the team’s midfield and arguably performs best outside of the contest in a forward position without being a goal kicker. He remains a good honest foot soldier but is not a star.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #33 Tom Fullarton

      Fullarton managed a couple of games in the first half of the season but soon found himself back in the VFL. There, he found a niche at centre half back but it was not enough to retain a place on the list at season’s end.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #35 Harrison Petty

      Entering 2025, it looked as if Petty would be secured in a defensive position, but plans shifted and he spent more time forward, averaging just over a goal per game throughout the season. It remains uncertain which area of the ground he will be expected to cover under the new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

      The dynamic small forward, possessing an innate ability to generate excitement with his explosive play around the goals, successfully transitioned into a role that afforded him more time in the midfield. The club also negotiated a long-term deal with Pickett, thereby eliminating any prospect of a move west by their star young player.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #37 Kade Chandler

      For a few years now, he has been a reliable, hard working pressure forward, but in 2025, Chandler elevated his performance, becoming an integral component of the team with enough versatility to play effectively on a wing from time to time.
