Neither chompimg nor chanting.  Champing is the word, as you say from horses. (Though I see chomping is gaining currency.)

Correct wait.

    Windsor reminds me of Alan Johnson, the loping stride with a bit of a back hunch. 

    Correct weight (i love his runs and carry and pass to Darren Bennet in the second vid):

    Also that first clip was from the 88 Elimination Final not the Semi Final as stated on the Podcast. We lost to the Eagles in 90 and 91 in Semi Finals at Waverly. Johnson didn't play in the 90s finals series which was his last season.

    How good were long handballs. They're a forgotten art of the game. Rarely see them anymore.

    I think we are trying to bring them back.

    There were couple in the blues game, coincidentally one from trac to Oliver that ended up with Alan Windsor kicking his second.

    No need for that Andy

    Good comparison Bin.  I reckon the Duke has longer strides, but that’s probably just a sign of the times.

    Have to give a shout out to Nibbler for his outstanding performance in this praccy.

    Hoping that form relays into similar early season stuff from him.

    I also loved the handball from Trac to Clarry to Bullet (Windsor).  Anyone that can get a handball off to a player in the stands 60 meters away, who then whips it 75 meters over the top to a running player for a goal has me very excited indeed! (ty Bin!)

    That Julian guy who lives in the Netherlands whose review was read out sounds like an upstanding citizen and all round good guy.

    This was before my time. When you were building up to who he reminded you of, I simply thought you were going to say Lachie Whitfield. The player us dees fans have coveted for years, but clearly didn't want to pay the hefty price tag, if he was even ever available.

    Thanks for your kind words. Just found out where I can find all the international reviews so I can now give our international fans their shoutouts.

    Thanks for listening.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
