Kelly will go to Geelong. It would be fair if he did. They need a bit of class in that team and the AFL would like to give the Cats a bit of a leg up. They're struggling.

The arzz has officially dropped out of the bombers. Eight bus loads of bomber fans went up the highway. Hopefully most of them will stay up there.

I could really enjoy the 2nd half of this game !! Well done Bummers, you made the finals, a fairytale effort. You're so much better than any team outside the 8. Everyone's 2nd favourite team blah blah blah. Let's hope for two more 10 goal quarters from the swannies , just to take the shine off Essendon's resurrection.

I won a lot of money backing the Bullies to beat the Crows a couple of years ago in a game where Stringer starred. I have a soft spot for him.

That game was unbelievable. Watching it was like an out of body experience for a dees fan. North had no chance to win that. Was it Viney who kicked that first goal with a miracle snap ?? When that sailed through, I thought "we've got this". So many players to love watching in the red and blue !!! Where do you start ??

My abiding memory from the late 60's when I first started to take notice of footy was of Royce Hart flying across in front of packs and taking mark after mark and kicking bags of goals against us. People like Roger Dean, kevin Sheedy, Billy Barrot, Richardson the elder, Dick Clay and a half a dozen others who would always destroy us. It made a terrible impression on a little 8 year old kid !!

My heart will be warmed by such a scenario , however, I dreamt last night that the Tigers won the game on virtually the last kick of the match after a Richmond player received the ball at centre half forward from a blatant throw from a team mate which the umpires ignored and kicked the winning goal. Sounds like a very plausible AFL scenario, so i'll trust it.

Frost came to us as a defender from his former club and they thought they'd pitch him into the forward line to see how it went ??? If they'd bothered to read demonland at the time , they'd have moved him into the backline pronto !!!! What's the point of having so many experts here and ignoring them ???

Can we wind it back and get Judd, Pendlebury and Buddy ???

Are we talking about Trump, Kim Jong Un or Lumumba ????

Even better than Diamond John Tilbrook or Kelvin Templton? Would need to be very good then !!!!

I have heard a number of the younger players are planning to train the house down this pre season like it's never been trained down before. How's that for a start ???

and has she got a 'beautiful leg ' ??

so what if players are sledging each other. Just produce some action to back it up when we play saints next year. Don't for goodness sakes think " oh, there's no Montagna or Riewoldt. We'll have an easy win !!

Recognise Threats and opportunities ???? Give us a break !!!!! That's eduspeak nonsense at it's most unintelligible

Injury affected season and likely to become more so. Not enough value even for one season.

Unaccountable and probably not enough intensity. Let's pass on this option.

Then learn it .... and do it.

can I just suggest that players learn to tackle and do it properly, with intent. Grab the opponent and pin their arms. I'm a simple soul and not a football guru, but this is what I'd like to see addressed.

I could easily be sitting in a group therapy session with other deees tragics, rocking backwards and forwards on the chair screaming " BALLLLLLLLL !! or " Kick the bloody thing !!!!! or just droooling and staring into space. I can picture it !!

I will rejoin in this category again in March or April next year. It will take me til about then to regain my equilibrium........ or go stark raving mad. Either condition will doubtless lead me to re-sign as a member. I think I'll be closer to the second.

I picked the wrong week to give up crack cocaine !!!!

OMG, I recall Cowton playing in the 78 Grand Final. Alongside the likes of Peter Knights, someone called Baker for North who could take a mark. Goodness me, I feel pretty old now.

Jeez Ron, You must be good value at family events. Your GFs parents probably warrant a tongue lashing.

Porche non las dos ???
