I don’t think there was anything wrong with Spargo’s form pre injury. He’s kicked 2 goals three times in 4 and a bit games and was his usual self with score involvements and goal assists.

I think you are correct Sydee that mobility is extremely important in our thinking for the forward line. Which is why the club would be wrapt if a player like Schache was able to produce the goods for

There would appear to be other ways of managing players throughout the year, apart from being rested from a game. From the time on ground stats, it would appear that, on Saturday, we started to rest o

Should never have tried again with an AFL club on the Gold Coast. People go there to play golf,eat seafood and die. 

Glass half empty kind of person yeah? 🤣

Don’t you dare come up for the Olympics!….

There’s a tad more to do then the above mate, 8 months of the year it’s an amazing place to live, stay away during summer

He seemed to get a few 'Joe the Goose' type goals.

Have you seen any GC matches this year? His efforts have been deplorable, particularly for a guy so big and athletic.

Please explain.

What is a "joe the goose goal?"

Easy handball over the top to a player unguarded, usually on the goal line. Typically means other players have done the hard work but player in question gets the stat.

The correct answer is "sorry I got it wrong & Chol has been quite an effective forward for GC"

Not sure what I got wrong. Just said he kicked 44 goals which is a fact. Heard he hasn’t been as good this year which was widely reported and backed up by the fact he has only kicked 3 goals in 4 games so far.

Last 3 days in Brissy ...

Not long and somewhat rose coloured glasses as a visitor but it does have some upside such as...

> a whole lot less ppl so easier to get into places / parking

> as a result of above ... less pressure on prices.  Mostly reasonable including parking in the city

> many seem a bit happier, light hearted and with less traffic on the roads a few less angry folk it seems

> Brissy river's a winner but with so many high rises coming up.... get up quick if you want a view or be prepared to search hard for one that does.

Overall it has a feel of 'working to live' rather than the other way alot of the time in Melb.

Generally i like it up here.  Selective places in Noosa decent as well which i did late last year.

Cant say im a huge fan further up as just too hot and cant hit the beaches around Cairns & beyond unless you have a death wish.

Olympics? Should of been disbanded years ago. Totally corrupt.  Hardly anyone bid for them.  Who is paying for it?  Qld?  The federal Gov will foot a large part of the bill which is disgraceful. That means Victoria will be paying for your infrastructure  as usual. Enjoy.

Has any major sporting code ever had a successful sojourn into the Gold Coast.  
As far as I know (happy to be corrected) Rugby, soccer and basketball have also tried and failed.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
