Has anyone got a photo of this year's jumper? Didn't see it on 360

Sorry, perhaps we should call it a Brain Fade. That's what Rance had when he polaxed Watts' head last year? Got a week didn't he? Great consistency here

The irony

I am overseas ATM, flew out after the game. Woke up this morning to see what had happened and was shocked, to say the least. This is a f...... Outrage. 3 weeks. Guys haven't been given three weeks for this sorta love tap stuff in years. Why now? And when we next play Carlton i hope we f....g smash the weak dogs. How a Dr can lie so blantantly without cross examination is beyond me. What a farce. Accuse us of bruise free football blue baggers and then dob like a bunch of victims when the going gets tough. Flogs of the highest order. I would like to see the board make comment about this after the dust settles. Too scared of upsetting the AFL

you do not have to be tall to play tall. Both are capable of playing and competing with taller opponents.

Frost, Hibberd, Wagner....let's not start talking off-season in rd 2 coz we have a few players down.

does Salem have a penetrating kick? I reckon he'd struggle to cover 50metres. He is a good user, but our get out of jail kick was Bernie playing on and going 60 metres wide to Gawn

why wouldn't Goodwin have mentioned him? I would love Bugger to be added. I reckon he can play Vince's role as a defensive small bloke. On a side note, who are we trusting with the kicking in duties on the weekend/.?

Bull [censored]

I'd challenge it. AFL has a systemic problem when love taps like that cops week and Rance gets the same for a blatant fist to the head. If that player didn't roll around like a [censored] it wouldn't have been brought up. I thought he hit Membrey. Report says Wright, is it a different incident ?

Is that official?

It's not a reportable offence. go watch the vision.

It was an attempted high tackle and his inner forearm clipped his head with minimal force an the spid fell over and acted as if he was shot. What time are these findings out. ?

ahahahaha. Silliest thing I have read today. It was a free kick. Not a bump. Cmon mate

What are you on about?

AFL game day on 7 is reporting Max Gawn (back) in its injuries. Anyone hear anything ?

Oscar is a disaster midfield is slow gawn hits it to st kildas advantage at centre bounces

They beat Carlton ffs. They start off like this every season and then the wheels fall off. Carlton had zero defensive game plan.

Question, why didn't Hannan play JLT, did he play the Casey game last week?

Huge surprise ...Trengove is running drinks...teammates urged to wait patiently

The media are beating this story up heaps. Jones said he was initially disappointed but got over it and has accepted it and moved on. He will still be the club's leader. You only have to look at the 'heartbeat' magazine the club sent out this week. He is the central figure. If anything, jones will be fired up to perform. The greatest media beat up since Jack Watts' JLT omission. They love a bad news Dees story. F.....n move on. TFS trying to make it into something bigger again tonight.

What is the story with Hibberd? I know he had an issue with with his Achilles. What's his progress?

ANB is neither fast nor slow. Neither exceptional or lamentable. He is a very ordinary footballer who adds little to the side

I'll have Bugg over stretch. Didn't see any outside run or creativity from him tonight. Isn't that what he is supposedly in the team for,? Bugg has a go and was good, again.

It's not the end I the world. Few blokes looking rusty as you'd expect. I don think any side plays 100% to their game plan in these matches. There are things they focus on. For example, I thought we were very good at holding up the kick ins against the dogs. Tonight it was as if we had no thought about how to set up. It's all experimental. Tyson had an awful game. But, we know he can play. Oscar is still a liability. Spencer and Gawn can work. Vince needs to improve. Hunt is a beauty and Oliver will be a star. Lots of changes before round 1 I hope. Our lack of a small forward was noticeable. I'd almost be inclined to play Ben Kennedy if none of Kent, Garlett or JKH are ready. Gotta have someone crumbing. ANB and Stretch looked like they will both play VFL at the start of the year.
