leave it to deever

Bang.

Back to basics for me with the way the maggots have been pinging us. More kicking long and less handball And I just want consistency from umps. I love Bbb TX norf.

Are we still the three quarter champions? I believe we are. Gotta dominate the middle with so many defenders out. Gf replay coming up.

Maggots bog.

What a difference a free makes.

Umps are just killing us. No push in back.

No Salem Lever Rivers Petty And dodgy umps. Spargo or Kozzie in the middle now. Tmac needs to impose.

More kicking please.

Dogs are always umps darlings.

Only way dogs will win is by the easy frees.

I hope someone bumps Bont nice and hard.

Lever, Petty and Rivers out are a worry for me but hopefully the pride of players will suffice. Smith to surprise us and I'm expecting a big night from Kozzie and Brown. Do it for the legends that proudly carried the flag.

Bont should have got a week for his head bump on Oliver in the gf. But hey let's not rub out any big names.

And Gus did his fair bit of bruising in the gf as well as copping a fair bit.

Yea. Wouldn't fit through one now.

Only four more sleeps. Wish I could get there in person. Can someone have a couple of pies and beers for me? So excited

No worries. I was just being facetious. All good. Enjoy the opening game. Can't wait.

I think the players should all become bi lingual. They can go to town on the umps.

Yea not sure where all this is heading. Does Vineys head shaking constitute dissent and a 50m. Will be an interesting and frustrating season.

Cant wait to follow Kozzie this season. Has such star potential at such a young age. A couple of quiet pre season games is nothing.

TX CF but I was referring to what whatwhatsaywhat said....being cut from St kilda. Sorry about all the what's. His forays into other sports isn't really standard fare for the real champions of the game. And SW would be one of the four all time cricket legends.

A serendipitous star of spin. Tried his hand at afl but didn't really cut it. I think he played club cricket, so it's not like he rose through the normal state ranks. Not a supreme athlete in terms of diet and lifestyle in the beginning. But just WOW, the cream started to rise. Gave cricket and the forgotten art of spin just what it needed. Including yes ...the flipper. What an absolute champion of the game he became. You always knew when he came on something exciting was going to go down. Like THAT ball against poor Mike G. How fun to watch him bowl with five fielders surroundeing the batsman by a couple of feet. The dirt on his hands and that seemingly effortless roll of the wrist and magic of the fingers. The constant look of fear in batsman's eyes and confusion how they were dismissed. I may be naive, but I like to think he's up their in the pearly nets sending a few googlies to Sir Don after a nice Hawaiian pizza and a VB. Condolences to his children. RIP Warnie and thanks for the joy you gave us all.

Probably why there's more biffo in that game. I think umps have the right not to be abused but that's a big difference to simply arguing the toss of the coin. Afl players are under considerable duress and while they are well compensated, they need to blow off a little steam now and then. Is pointing to the scoreboard replay and questioning the validity of the decision so offensive? I mean it's not like those maggots..I mean white grubs...I mean those arbitrary arbitrators get it right all the time. Sometimes we see quite a few absolute howlers. It's pretty hard to not scream from the comfort of my lounge chair, so I can't imagine how hard its is for a player to keep mom. Just my two cents.

Your right. I used to have a front wheel Magna that had a smaller Tc than Tmac circa two seasons ago, but he seemed to have fixed this last year and here's hoping he keeps going well this season.

Just a slow start. A few rusty players and some strange umpires. Dont panic Mr Mannering. Just watch the gf replay instead.
