I thought Clarry looked really fit and the best condition I’ve seen him in for quite some years.

Sure knows how to get the pill and his handball skills are elite.

Not sure where to post this but has anyone, anywhere, ever seen anything to suggest that Essendon's Sam Durham is an 'emerging star'?

I guess it could be something to observe in the Essendon pre-season games?

Seems like a 'better than average' player and good all-round midfield contributor, but after four years basically uninjured and at 24yrs old, you'd expect more than that to be considered an 'emerging star'.

Or is it possible the AFL website is basically a proxy for the Bomber's hype machine as thye try to put a respectable gloss on needing to give a pretty good midfielder a high value six year contract?

McVee continued his underwhelming form into yesterday’s game v WC.

A couple of Freo posters on Bigfooty questioning whether he’s a lock for round 1.

PREVIEW: Brisbane
PREVIEW: Brisbane

They really had me fooled when I picked them with great confidence to beat the Bombers at Gather Round last week. I should have recognised that nothing is more quintessentially Melbourne than defeating the undefeated early premiership favourite one week and losing to a winless cellar dweller on its way to establishing a record losing streak the next.
