In Harmes Way

But it actually is, Clint.

The siren at Casey Fields sounds like Gus the steam shovel from Mr Squiggle.

I'm with Clint. For the first time in many seasons, I'm less fussed about the result and keen to see our depth show what they've got. And no injuries....

Highly thought of inside the industry. Twill be interesting to see if there’s external visibility on this loss over the course of the year.

I'm with you there OD. I joined in 2011 because the club needed me. Last year, me and my boy had Trident memberships, which became a $1K+ donation to the club due to COVID. Nothing from the club by way of thanks, I reckon the more members we get, the more they take us for granted.

Beat me to it Ethan, I was going to ask how to Hotwire an AMG

Not sure why there's an AFL Directive to not live stream this game when others are being live streamed (presumably under another AFL directive).

Somehow I don’t think the club will entertain a question based on the selection of one ex-player in one game

That Final vs Adelaide was a ripper, even for a game we lost (still gutted). But I will never forget the elation of the first two finals in 1987. Fell into the finals and absolutely smashed the more fancied Kangaroos and Swans off the park.

Charlie Spargo showed nothing today that gives me belief in this. Just firing up the usual suspects.

Missed you around here Ethan

Is it Rosman to his right?

This is just cruel. I’m devastated for her.

In determining whether any current players will make the 2000 team of the century, I'm of the view that the selectors will be our great grandchildren and probably not up to date with current talent. They'd probably take one look at the 2010-2020 results and look no further. In evaluating the 1900 team of the century, only two players made the team from pre 1930's (Bert Chadwick and Ivor Warne-Smith, who won two Brownlows). 6 players from the three-peat team 1939-1941 and 11 from the most dominant team of all time in the 50's. More recently than 1965, the selectors picked Hardeman, Flower, Lyon, Stynes and Viney. I'd imagine the 2000 team of the century will have much the same profile, unless we start winning a bunch of flags soon (hoping).

I wonder if they used dominion vote counting machines

If you listen to the Alan Richardson segment on SEN (other thread), selecting Majak was really based on timing. They looked closely at a number of options including Paddy McCartin and younger players, but ruled them out based on a potential need for an early season callup to the ones. Paddy McCartin was discussed at some length, was seen as the player with highest talent against others named; but needed 4 weeks training non-contact, 4 weeks training with contact and then a couple of games before he would be viewed as available for selection - so was not considered further based on timing. Richo suggested a number of clubs would be looking at how he fared in the Sydney 2's.

If any of the Dees ladies are reading this, they’ll know where to get a Parma afterwards

I’m not sure the club will do much better than Majak as a backup option - for all the posters here saying no, who should we go for instead? I wish him all the best with his second chance, hope he grabs it by the ears.

If GCS folded and moved to Tassie, I feel it would be an oxymoron to have the Hobart Suns

To the optimist the glass is half full, to the pessimist the glass is half empty To the MFc supporter there is another half a dozen glasses needed

Just a very impressive showing against quality opposition, who were always going to make a charge. Great win for the girls. Go dees

Hope the boys play like that this year.

Great ball movement and desperation love Goldie in the backline

Definitely taking advantage of what seems to be the scoring end even though it doesn’t look windy

Great kick for goal from the pocket Shelley Scott
