  1. alright true confession time, i’ve ended up loading up on the Blues plan is to cash out at 3/4 time
  2. hilarious. McGovern wasn’t even looking for a fight. Mr Jumper punches
  3. WTF is Howe doing? broken arm or not, two sleeves or zero sleeves you’re not Michael Jackson
  4. wow the umps are really in the Pies pocket
  5. So one umpire decides it’s preseason and gives the Pies a 50 for a blues defender calmly pointing at the screen saying have look. Ump says you can’t point at the screen which is clearly not true as it happens every game Three 50’s to the Pies and it’s Q time
  6. True. but i still reckon he’s the best tall back in the game this year
  7. Carlton - please test your buzzer
  8. yep good call having the blues wear white shorts amateur hour
  9. bad kicking is bad footy at 12.6 we are still in it
  10. same here mate but Sam Walsh is stopping me from putting too hard on it Blues go on these runs and are hard to stop. If Cripps, Cerra etc are fit they’ll put in a show
  11. I wonder if the SC will consider managing senior players next week in Tassie against North. Obviously has risks but we should look at Gawn (replace with Grundy), May, Lever, Viney, Trac and see if one or two of them needs to be managed so they are firing come finals. We have the pre finals bye but playing through injuries or niggles can be riskier than resting players as seen last year
  12. One thing I am still confused by with Footy is counting possessions and having the ball more means you play well regardless of what you do with it. Pretty sure its the only sport in the world that counts the amount of time you get the ball and that equals a good performance. The commentators sometimes keep counting the times a player gets it! Dunstan is a classic example, he is not a skillful player, is not quick and can not play anywhere else than pure inside mid. He is a great VFL player but is very limited on an AFL level. Everyone calling for him to play just watch the couple of AFL games he played last year. Why is he not selected after multiple 40 touch games? he is not AFL quality. Harsh but true. He couldn't even get a game for the Saints when they had a horrible midfield. If Viney plus others are out though, he is there for cover.
  13. The club obviously see our tall fwds as Petty and JVR. Petty was starting to look very good forward before he go injured. We need a big senior body up there who can compete. Brown showed he couldn't do that on the weekend
  14. Reckon it’s clicked with Henry this year. his upside is huge. if we added more speed and skill to our midfield we would be unstoppable
  15. very happy to take the bet 40pt+ win coming up
  16. Darcy and Fyfe done for the year. Cox will miss the next 2 weeks They play Cats, Lions, Port in the next 5 PUT A FORK IN THEM!!
  17. the Tigers fans turn up for a likely win against the Hawks. Won't be as many of them there to see us smash them
  18. Sunday Sunny and 19oC!! can't wait, nothing better than a sunny arvo at the G
  19. It's Shemen, not Shemans Check ya gramma!
  20. indeed But Bailey is a such a natural footballer I reckon we risk it.
  21. Glad we have the pre finals bye. Fritsch should be able to get some sort of hit out in before finals in 7 weeks
  22. [censored] you gotta feel for north
  23. i totally agree with you but am personally happy to let the Pies take all the pressure and expectation into finals. no doubt in my mind the the Pies fear us most
  24. surprised by the many fired up responses to my comment. sure they may have talked about babies and toddlers being in the song. obviously i’m not aware of that. just expressing my opinion.
  25. Been my favourite player for years an amazing leader on and off field. his desire and will to win are critical come finals he is our most important player
