As I was walking out of the MCG last week Nathan Jones was saying over the PA that we will have ups and downs this year. To me that attitude means they don't have belief in themselves, today proved that. You can't win unless you believe you can.

I just got home and I'm still blinded from the sun reflecting off Nichols' head.

I'll always take a win but I'm glad I only got a 3 game membership this year.

This. Watch the Casey game where Fritsch and Watts were both playing in the forward line. From memory it went something like Fritsch 4 goals, Watts 1 goal, 2 points.

I don't know, judging where it looks like the lightning is striking, I'd say it is God smiting the Royal Hotel in a Sodom and Gomorrah style.

Might end up a prison camp.

Everybody in the football media think that they are Nostradamus.

The Samurai adopted Zen to make them better warriors so the same principles could be applied to football.

I've downgraded to a 3 game membership due to the Sunday games.

That's a 3 game membership fixture.

I rarely watch TV besides the footy but have recently been visiting( bothering) some friends who have Stan to watch a show called Preacher. It's based on a 90s comic book which I was a fan of back in the day. Don't expect superheros though.

No Tyrone = premiership.

Robbo turned up to the Big Freeze game after losing his voice. What other match day host would do that? The conversation between him and the Rev at Fed Square before the match about no one being able to understand them was pure gold.

Just out of curiosity, can someone give me some spoilers and tell me the plot of the book?

I went to a few Casey games this year and Fritsch was the highlight of the season for me, I'd hate for anyone else to pick him up. I would also like to give The Coldstream Football Club a shout out for turning up every game to watch their boy Fritsch play.

I wonder if the pamphlet will become a collectors item in the future? I might go pull mine out of the bin just in case it does.

Yes, most supporters work hard for a fraction of what the players get for rolling over.

Go Casey!

I do find it strange that people pay good money to go to the football and they spend the whole time there miserable. I only do that when I go to the dentist.

If it's true that there is an umpiring bias then who pulls the strings? Gill, the umpires themselves or other factions within the AFL ? And for what reasons? Is there communications before and during the games to the umpires to direct the outcome? I would love to see a conspiracy documentary about it. P.S. Razor has no soul.

Best game I've seen from Keilty, looks like just what Melbourne needs down back.

I wasn't going to go today as I've been working 5 minutes down the road from Casey Fields getting blown away by the wind all week but Watts playing has me curious so I'm going. Go Casey!

I've noticed Vanders at Casey games with some sort of coaching role during the huddles.

Just in case Barrett does read this:
