funny that hogan plays against former clubs in consecutive weeks

i didn't see the preuss hit - was watching the other game - but was it actually bad? high? deliberate? what level of impact?

Elbow to the head. The bloke was fine so that might help. Definitely deliberate 

They won’t show a replay so hard to judge the impact

No one in the media wants to say it so let me. JUH sucks. 

I don’t disagree with that assessment but how insane is the hype/pressure on these kids.  The media had gone mental with the hype on JUH before he’d even played a senior game. They have no time to develop.

And he’s surrounded by a lot of trash up there except Naughton who is elite.

and still no scrutiny on Leon Cameron?  Looking pretty ordinary with a gifted list, but no heart

40 free kicks to 16 to Freo

again I ask - what is happening to our game?

hard to watch

I lived 20 years of this crap at Subi oval, hence my extreme dislike of the Original druggies and their chardonnay slopping [censored] supporters

So much good footy in backlines and midfields this season, but some of the worst forward 50 entries and goalkicking I have seen in a long time. Including the Dees. Not sure of the causes (exhaustion, lack of practice?)  but it is really noticeable. Teams playing well enough to win, and losing it through forward errors must be killing some coaches.

The Dogs were good for the most part tonight but woeful goal kicking. Their midfields not sprinting to the next contest really hurt them too. 

Boy I hope we get our goal kicking and forward entries fixed up. If it wasn't for our backs and mids strangling sides, some of our forward kicking could be costing us games.

40 to 16 free kicks Fremantle’s way. Think the umpires think the Bulldogs are playing two game’s tonight. 

Yep. Umpiring was disgraceful and quite obviously bias to Fremantle. But GWS just dropped their head after the bad calls. And good clubs don’t do that. We get worse calls than anyone by the umpiring, we are consistently on the receiving end of terrible umpiring, yet we always wrestle back the momentum, as good teams do. GWS aren’t a good team. They look to me like a team with ridiculous talent, but no one has taught them to play to a structure. Their midfielders are out chasing kicks, and bombing it in the forward line without a care. I suspect Clarkson will take a good look at GWS and probably put his hand up for the job. The list is there.

Dogs don't have to play him if he's not ready but I agree.
Look a' moi Mia Fevola didn't help his cause for over exposure.

    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,
