Whatever or whoever

I was actually very impressed with Dee - luded's efforts a few posts back , so if he's ( she's ) willing , I confer the honour upon him ( her )

I'm going to Israel with my older daughter to celebrate the wedding of my nephew .

I know most won't really care , but my weekly thread will not appear for the next 3 weeks as I'll be tanking it overseas . Anyone is welcome to take over in my absence .

Surely she was there to make the cup cakes

6 - Moloney 5 - Bartram 4 - Petterd 3 - Green 2 - Grimes 1 - Rivers

Bartram - justified his selection Bate - exciting too rarely Bennell - must improve disposal Bruce - milestone to forget Davey - was well held Dunn - continued good form Frawley - tough and steady Green - prolific , not imposing Grimes - great under pressure Jamar - couldn't impose himself Jetta - overwhelmed by opposition Jones - a poor game Jurrah - some exciting moments Martin - rarely bothered scorers McDonald - game has passed McLean - quietest career game Moloney - played with passion Morton - played without passion Petterd - excellent first half Rivers - held Rooke well Robertson - has become irrelevent Warnock - probably broke even

Your writing evoked goosebump - inducing imagery WJ .

That font of knowledge about all things football , The Ox , called it the worst decision in football history

He paid a mark , not a free, and the replay showed he was correct

EG ? Added Bell now

6 - Bruce 5 - Jurrah 4 - Green 3 - Rivers 2 - Jamar 1 - Warnock

Bate - ten minute performance Bell - aggressive but chancey Bruce - sensational all day Davey - outstanding in bursts Dunn - may have arrived Frawley - great despite errors Green - provided senior leadership Grimes - played with flair Jamar - strong and determined Jetta - almost Davey - like Jones - excellent tagging game Jurrah - an excitement machine Martin - some important touches McDonald - not his best McLean - there when needed Moloney - mistakes but vital Morton - set up plays Petterd - great opportunist's game Rivers - a rock again Robertson - selfish and undisciplined Warnock - there when needed Wheatley - provided the stability

Actually Watts already looks as if there is some body development taking place ; the same certainly can't be said for Morton whose body shape looks to be regressing

He was the full forward and had over 20 possessions - he may not have ' earnt ' them , but probably deserved them IMO.

It's far from relevant to the real world now , but he played an under age game against my son's team 4 years ago and he kicked either 5 or 6 goals from CHB . To further rub salt into the wound , he also dominated an underage basketball game against my son's team around the same time .

I don't understand how the stats ' flattered him a little ' . He either got the ball or he didn't , and the stats say he did ! There wasn't much else he could have done as a forward .

Embarrassingly insipid performance from Frankston who are unlikely to exist beyond this season if they cannot amalgamate with an AFL side . Of the Demon players PJ was totally dominant in the ruck and Newton showed an increasing propensity to chase , tackle , and make second efforts .IMO he was more impressive than Miller who also showed out against meagre opposition . Bartram was easily BOG , and is obviously very comfortable in this environment . I continue to be impressed by McKenzie, an unfashionable hard nut who appears to have a touch of the x factor to him . Bail gave alot of drive , as did Valenti before injury . Watts was a standout because of his coolness under pressure and his ability to make quick decisions with clever use of the football from either foot . He seemed to enjoy the freedom of playing on a wing or flank and regularly brought team mates into the game with an uncanny ability to make something out of nothing . He was easily the best 18 year old on the field . Whelan was Whelan and enjoyed the freedom to move forward and kick a goal in true rover style , which is not his forte . Bennell didn't play and may have been held in reserve as a last minute replacement for tomorrow's game . .

I don't want to pat myself on the back too much , and I may have been stating the ' bleeding obvious ' but I did pick it in my 3 word player analysis this week ( ' a certain nominee ' )

6 - Bruce 5 - Grimes 4 - Jamar 3 - McLean 2 - Moloney 1 - Martin
