In Harmes Way

With these Friday night games, I'm not sure what I'm going to do now at 3:20 on a Sunday in Rounds 11 and 12.

I reckon our best 3 pronged attack was Mueller, Baggott and Norm Smith in 1939. Won us a flag. Good enough for me.

Count how many possessions Spargs got from these highlights. I make it 1 kick. Maybe it's just me, but I'm happy if he does this all day for 1 kick.

So your quality control on spelling is not limited to player’s names then!

I reckon this post typifies our selection criteria at the moment. Do we want players that accumulate stats or players that make it harder for the opposition and by extension create opportunities? We've clearly got the balance pretty good at the moment, and it seems to be that players that have low stats in any given week seem to make up for it the next week (where somebody else then takes that focus). I'd be happy with 0 disposals (although not checking the stats) if he applied significant tackles inside forward 50 and turned over the ball, creating the opportunities for others to kick a bag. Clearly if any player is doing neither, they will be dropped. It will be interesting to see if Melksham and Jones take the team first mantra into the 2's if they do line up for Casey.

On SEN this morning they indicated that having both Jones and Melksham named wasn't a guarantee they were playing (even though Jones was named on the field in the squad). Apparently the side is formally set around 3pm this arvo.

He was a reason to go to the footy when we weren’t winning to see another mark of the year contender. He also said some nice words ahead of Chunk’s 300th last week, so I’m not sure he’s a complete dh. But now we’re winning. He won’t make us a better team, nor does he have the pressure attributes IMO. Absolutely a no from me.

I'm expecting @demonstone to pop up more than once in this thread. Great news.

At least you won't hear the bloke sniffing loudly on Fox I wouldn't have thought.

Did you also know we'd be 6 and zip and keep that to yourself as well?

Roosy must feel like his job is done now

Whately is 300, Robbo is 60 show = 360

Just like riding a bike with a massive tail wind atm.

OUT: Tasmania IN: Marvel. We've got the rolls royce collection of deck chairs, I'm sure the selection committee will get it right no matter what they do.

I was watching some post game analysis on AFL.com.au, and couldn't help but stare at the graphic Gees that cup looks good.

This.

I haven’t waxed my skis for the last 3* years. * would have last year if not for covid

We were in the top deck above Punt Rd goals. When coming down the stairwell on the way out, about 2000 people in the stairwell spontaneously erupted into the Grand Old Flag song. It was joyous and awesome

31 scoring shots to 12 tells a story

You'd hope so!

76 Ryan Sparkes showing a bit.

Ball OOB centre wing. 78-29

We're all over them in what can only be described as deplorable conditions. Hats off to those still watching over the fence (pun intended).

Jimmy Munro goals after a 50m penalty had him convert from the goal square.
