Ahh good old Rangey.. I had my suspicion he came back as Olisik, but I think even big O was still kicking around when Rangey was active. Surely he's come back under another name?

Another reason why Ratten is delusional. I would kill for someone of Matty Lloyd's ilk in helping Sam Weideman and Jacob Van Rooyen about forward craft or even with our goal kicking.

Jordan DeGoey - Jail

I'm not even talking about that.. If you and the 3 others who liked it would have any small idea you would know I'm talking about his coaching career thus far at St Kilda. Max King has nothing to do with this. As a collective, his record at St Kilda has been poor. Their recruitment has been a shambles and they are simply no where near challenging anytime soon. Their depth is made up of recycled players who are handy in playing a role against bottom 4 teams but steuggle against the rest. There's going to be a significant drop next year and I'll be surprised if Ratten last the journey.

Did they really sign Brett Ratten to another 2 year deal? Sheesh...

Still think Jackson stays?

Just signed a new 2 year deal.

In fairness there have been some really questionable decisions around the management of certain players this yead Both Salem and Rivers started the year off with bandages around their knees and were very poppy and have been since. They were CLEARLY not 100% fit and that's where I question if it was necessary they had to play so early and quickly from their knee injuries when best caution of practice would be too take as much time as possible. I look at the way they managed Hibberd and thought that was done far more professionally and his recent form bar Collingwood showed that he hasn't looked out of touch at all. Even the recent James Jordon knee injury. Since he hurt his knee he's running around and has a turning circle of a Ben Brown. He's lost his speed and power as of a result of this and it's costing us big time because he's awareness and slow movement kills our transition chains. The decision to continue to play Jordon when he's clearly not fit with that knee really is puzzling. There's fit blokes at Casey that can come in or even better, we move Brayshaw to a wing and get Bowey in.

Wouldn't be surprised if this one waits until after the trade period. It's looking like we're going to be active this year and could be some player movement with the Jackson/Grundy and maybe Karl Amon.

Would fit in well at North

Correct, it's not his fault. Thought I think Callum Ah Chee thinks otherwise.

Theatre.

So are Melbourne supporters going to boo Cripps tomorrow night? or are we a bit more civilised compared to the mob last week...

Can someone give a summary of the Melksham part?

Well the precedent is now set it seems.

Can't say I'm confident the next person after Gil will make that much of a difference unfortunately 'Red'.

Makes sense with the knee strapping last week.

It means it's the most Melbourne thing ever that a star player gets off against us through an appeal. And it's the most Melbourne thing ever that Cripps will most likely have 30 plus disposal and kick 3 to win them the game after being down 10 points at 3 qtr time. But in all seriousness, I'm still confident we win. It would even be sweet beating them with Cripps playing as Carlton fans are hanging onto every little hope to make finals. And of course the same usual suspect laughing against any comment I make.. typical.

You can see how this script is going to be written for Saturday night.. And it's not going to be good.

I'll be ropeable if we give up a first rounder. Collingwood will walk out with daylight robbery.

Another week where team selections annoy me once again..

Has gone down the basketball path.
