Demi Dee

Couldn't agree more. I'll happily stand with egg on my face if wrong. I just don't think I will be. Just hope the last round doesn't become tactical and GWS allow North through to avoid a rampaging Demons. Maybe they'd be more worried about a top 4 spot. Anyway, go Dees!

I'm looking forward to the drive down. A sea of red and blue scarfs out the windows, the maurading demons descending upon the hapless hamlet of the cats. The victorious return home, like Hagar the Horrible with the spoils, shall be sweet.

Thanks Clint, no TV or Foxtel go coverage. Appreciate your updates

Roosy would love it! What a way to go out.

The umpire was BOG for the Hawks no doubt. I was surrounded by Hawks supporters who believed they were hard done by the umps. I think they were tounge in cheek.

Humble apologies. Just shocked. Creative license on the anger.

This has happened a lot lately. Was it Vince who was dropped in the square last week, only for the umpire to step over him and ignore the incident I was pretty tempted to take one for the team yesterday, jump the fence and drop David Neitz who was in a Hawks tracksuit helping them warm up. Why are our Melbourne greats helping the Hawks, especially against us on game day. Clarkson, Yze, Neitz. I'm sure there are others, perhaps the umpires were old Melbourne players trying to exact revenge against the old regime. I'm sure I saw a pair of Hawks undies under one of their pairs of shorts.

I don't want to jump the shark, but, buoyed by yesterday's performance and with the slimmest of chances, the possibility of playing finals footy is here! North Are bobbing in eighth spot like a WA surfer as we circle below. They face three top three teams on the run home! We, on the other hand have Two very winnable games against Port and the Blues, and a finale to test our true worthiness against the cats. Believing our cue was back in the rack, an ember has been unearthed. I'd love it to burn wild and clear the road to finals. I read earlier the 87 comparisons and I look forward to watching this unfold. Burn Dee's Burn!

Good Friday night game. Turn the lights out for 1 minute and then start the game.

Maybe he's necrophobic.

It sure beats looking for it after round one.

And another 8-10 for the drongo who bit him. Almost as big an idiot as the ump.

Love watching the Pies get their hopes up, only to see them dashed. Another in the kidding yourself category (eh, hum. Saints).

Too much

Well said. I'm annoyed and kicking up dust, but, I'll move forward and won't lament those poor turn overs.

If we beats the Saints, we might March right onto 40

Cue: Hogan and our 2017 1st round pick suggestions

I think he got it last week.

Woo whooo!!!!

Anyone else having trouble getting the broadcast via AFL

Three fingers of Cognac would be far more appropriate at this time of day.

A talented ruck/fwd, you say. what about that Clarke fella? Any chance of prying him out of the litter?

Maybe I'm biased against his style of umpiring, but, I reckon you could put me infront of a broadcast blindfolded and I could tell you if he were umpiring. He impresses himself on the game and shapes them in a Solomenesque manner. Praise be to razor Ray for his benevolence and seemingly balanced umpiring on the weekend. But, agree Dr G it was not as poor as usual.

Im not blaming our loss on him, but, he has a real knack of giving us acouple of soft free's early, plenty of benign free's for us in no mans land and balances the ledger with free's against the flow of play and questionable freebies in extremely dangerous positions. He has mastered the craft of camouflaging his favouritism or is it his contempt for the red and blue.

Really liked Stretch and Hunt today. Speed and competitiveness belie their frames.
