Can anyone tell me why he wears a black sleeve on his left arm? Have I missed something?

it’s a compression sleeve. 

think he is better now and it is a bit of a signature like MJ’s one glove.

On AFL360 he said it was to give a little bit of protection to the arm and the scarring caused by a serious post-op infection. Probably helps him mentally as well given the serious nature of the break and the wound suffered.  Impressive by him to come back as he has.

JB said they're coming off a 6 day break, they are coming back from Adelaide, not Perth or Darwin. it's a 30 minute flight.

They were just outplayed tonight 

Have you tried to catch a domestic flight lately? I reckon you’d spend 3 hours on a plane to fly from tulla to Essendon !

I thought the Pies were slightly off their game from the first bounce.

Sidebottom was moving like a glacier.

And De Goooooey, terrible disposal and couldn't break the tackle of an auskicker

Are they tiring? There last 3 rounds are tough games. Hopefully they cop a few injuries and get bundled out in straight sets…..the only thing better than that is us winning the flag. In fact the trifecta is the Pies going out, us winning and then getting Harley Reid. Can you imagine the celebrations? I mean seriously, that’s a life changing chain of events. Anything after that is of little consequence.

So, can I be first to declare the opening of Colliwobble season?

Bit early this year, but climate change is messing up all of these natural cycles.

the Pies are winning based on system. They have some average players out there. 

How good was it to see Cox crack the naannies on the bench?

Moore 8 clangers!

Do frees against count as clangers? Moore gave away a few frees in the last.

C'mon man.
They were on fire early.
Marking everything in the F50 and kicked 2.2 before Carlton scored.

Also got a few doggy frees which helped. UMPIRE ALERT. Watch for #23. Some weird interpretations.

I really don't want Power to win the minor premiership. 

Were Pies fatigued last night or are Carlton a good side. Was their Power win legit or did Power rest too many players?

They have had some soft opposition of late but they did look good last night. They have a good run home from here too.

No chance port will finish top.  

Tough game tonight, cats at kp next week.

Easy last three games, but they are effectively 3 games behind the pies - 8 points plus 20 odd percentage. 

Even if they don't lose another game, pies would have to drop 3 of their last 4 games.

Don't think it will be a tough game for them tonite. No Rankine or Roshellli for the crows is a huge loss.

    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

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
