Quite right re the Dung Beetle. I thinking more of the natural habitat that they have in common with the aforementioned Journos. There the similarity ends.

You have the wrong genus - it's Scarabaeoidea - otherwise known as the dung beetle

Good point

Would think this means Howe will continue down back. Not a bad thing

The arrogance of the bombers is breathtaking. Their approach is just plain dumb, forcing ASADAs backs to the wall. Doomed to fail and prolong their pain. Suits me.

Baise vous Hird. May you be neck deep in merde.

They're only going to get a slap on the wrist for this - nothing surer. Hird's attitude is contemptible.

More likely a narcissist

Must admit feel for the players but hope it is the end of that arch egotist and pretty boy Hird.

Yes. Same logic applies. I'm on medication for my paranoia.

I wonder if Jodie being taken off at half time for Casey after racking up 20+ possessions may be a sign that he is in this week. Roos pressed re tired youngsters seems to suggest Salem and JKH will be rested. Kent must be a likely starter. Would also like to see Clisby for Terlich - much better decision maker and ball user.

Past history would suggest that " I'll look at my options at the end of the year " is code for " See Ya " 90% sure he's gorne. So be it. The take that it all depends on Roos is a furphy. Going to a new club would see new coaches for him anyway. It's all about the $s I'm afraid.

Hope I will be prostrating myself before the images of Blease, the Toump and Strauss in the not too distant future

Would rather that score line than the 100 point defeats, leaking goals like a sieve with no accountability. In fact I think accountability is probably the biggest change from last year.

Bomber Thompsons take on the game was interesting. He said that he could see that Roos was teaching how to play finals/premiership style football. We just have to accept that this is going to take time but the fundamentals are gradually being put in place.

Not sure that's true. He didn't butcher the ball - the players did.

Agree wholeheartedly. Not sure where Terlich fits in now. Nev is much more creative and a better user of the ball.

No way should Gawn be dropped.

Kent has to come in. We were slow today and so it may be worth giving Blease a go. Out: Salem and JKH.

Really disappointed in his game today. Very poor from a leader. A throw back to his form a few years a ago.

Hard to feel good about today's performance. Was a step back from last week. Expected more flare and attack up forward. Perhaps have gone too negative - some players need a rest and others at Casey should get their chance.

Should acknowledge Gawns game of 19 disposals. he's coming on nicely.

6. Jones 5. Dunn 4. Vince 3. Pederson 2. Gawn 1. Grimes

Also thought Vince and Gawn were good. Garland is a worry. Better by Grimes. Bail and Matt Jones got good stats but don't hurt with their possessions.

Agree
