Air will be a travesty if we lose this.

You [censored] beauties. Great to have some toe in the side

A justice - it was in the back to Tappy

One of our best quarters for the year

Fark . Screwed by the maggots yet again.

Love the effort. Hate being penalised for being first to the ball.

Our pressure and tackling have been great

Watts has extracted the digit at last

Hang there guys.

Dawes you've got to kick those.

Jetta is a beauty

This next half will give an indiication of what improvement there has been.

Riley 7 tackles. Have been better with Chip up forward. Another stinker from Watts.

Credit to the boys for preventing a blow out. Not without a chance.

Wouldn't mind that moron as our long term coach

Our current form is the worst in the comp but as St Kilda showed things can change quickly.

He's dreaming.

The main issue with Max as I understand it is holding marks. Seems a big step forward today.

Sylvia 7 possessions and 24 dream team points!

Aaron Hamill also comes to mind.

BOG for the firsts. Maxxy has a big upside ( and backside ) and will be really good for us within a couple of years.

The second half fade outs must be a concern. Is it fitness or inexperience?

The idea came in response to the perceived increase in soft tissue injuries as a result of burst football coming from rotations. The advantage thing was after the fact. I am not aware of any evidence to say that things have changed since it's introduction. Vlad liked the idea so it stuck. Coaches and players hate it. It needs evaluation.

I acknowledge that I perhaps should have said that hia approach to the negotiations around his contracts have been dumb. I stand by the fact that over time he has lost the good will of a lot of the supporter base.

Obviously there are no from the horses mouth sources but it has been widely reported and no denials are coming from the Frawley camp. This has been going for so long now that sentiment on this forum has changed over time from Chip being valued and a required player to hope he goes and we get good compensation that this negotiation via media has back fired. Can't remember another example of a free agent where the specifics of demands have been so public. His on field performance hadn't helped either.
