  1. Wow 6 changes. Not for a long time. Happy for Tmac not to get a gig but tough on Lockhart. Preuss obvious but J wagner is a head scratcher. Fritta has kicked quite a few so Im not sure where our goals are going to come from. Omac makes me nervous. Rivers in is a good call. Cant say Im confident and once again in that familiar Dees stage of watching other games hoping for results to go our way.
  2. Good old diamond Joe. I forgot about him and his red and blue Kippah. ?
  3. Can we get Joe?
  4. Well said Bbo. Your living up to your name.
  5. Halftime entertainment.
  6. More supporters. Much more. Always wonder why we dont thrive in this are. I thought it was connected to lack of success but the tigers had a huge drought and their base is huge. I also thought that people moving to melb would choose the dees because of the city name but it hasnt translated to more fans. Oh and a flag would be nice. I hear you Soidee, the fact of the matter is our lack of premiership just plain hurts. It aint getting easier to get one with the expanding number of clubs. Whatta you gunna do? You know you should do something...but you wont...so it doesnt matter.
  7. Miss him. Strange to see the 9 on Spargo.
  8. Im starting now only to save time for the weekend.
  9. Pretty accurate for mine. Thanks to May who played like a champion.

    Paradoxically, I'd still play Weideman deep and keep Tom roaming. Weideman is starting to look dangerous deep and will begin to worry defenders the more his confidence grows Weid is good as a deep frwd but we definately need someone who can come down the ground and clunk 6 or 7 marks so the idea of tmac deep is probably an idea to consider with Jackson out. Otherwise I cant see a place for Tmac.
  11. Ive come to the conclusion at this late stage of my life that Id be satisfied to see just one premiership and then watch the replay religiously every gf day thereafter. Or I get a taste of what it feels like and hunger for some more. Alas I get ahead of myself? If we could can the collective angst this team generates amongst it supporters we could release it when all the fossil fuels are gone and keep the lights going until 3030.
  12. Agree with most of this except Spargo. Bloke has played 2 very good games out of a grand total of 3 for the year. Give him some sort of chance. We have given others far more leniency.
  13. Yep Kardinia park or whatever they call it is the last of the great Vic unbeatable fortress of homeground avantages. As such it has kept the cats as contenders above the skill of their line up for the last 20 years. Its the same rason port...crows and eagles have enjoyed success. Home ground familiarity...crowd...swayed umps and conditions. Wish we had one.
  14. Not a bad home advantage despite crowd numbers.

    ??. But we have others like Sparrow...Harmes and a couple of others that can cover injuries there. In fact with Gus in the mix we have been wondering what to do with Viney. Now with Jackson injured we have nobody but Tmac to play 2nd key frwd. Not sure I follow your argument.

    True but why risk it? Jacko and Weid certainly look the goods but what if one of them is injured ....oh wait a sec...or both? Another big bodied power forward is definately a must have for future finals campaigns. I dont believe we are going to get 20 plus from Tmac or Melksham. Maybe Fritta but thats about it. Given we still dont have a proven consistent small goalsneak, then where are our goals coming from?

    Hes an awseome kicker at goal too. I think his body is collecting past debts. Yesterday was below par but the 2 games prior he had been working back into form. However the games prior to those 2 and most of last year cannot be overlooked.No matter how many say hes doing his role in helping Weid, if hes not kicking goals hes not doing his complete job. Alas, probably time for him to move on. We need another proven big power forward asap. As talented as Jackson and Weid are, I dont want us caught short again.
  18. Absolutely. Also needs to compete a little harder in the second halves.
  19. I could use good Dr after watching that game.
  20. Spargo a poor game with 2 rippers in the bank. Fritta was good today with 8 marks. Weid is good but canr seem to maintain his intent for 4 qrtrs. Hannan, Harmes and Tmac have had their day it seems. Pickett is just starting out so needs more time. Back to the drwaing board. To be fair to Goody who would want this bloody iob.
  21. Have been appreciative of Tmac's form the last 2 games but its just not enough. I know hes only one of 22 but its a clear signal to the others if we drop him. Let Harmes, Hannan and melksham have some time off as well and put everyone on notice. Play the coachimg staff for all I care but please dont reward lack of effort anymore.
  22. Gut wrenching loss today but a timely reminder that we are not who we thougt we were. Not finals contenders. A few pointed out the depleted side the pies were but my colour blundness wouldnt see it. Sadly Im seeing more clearly. I see Weid as a player who simply fades away in the second half. I notice Tmac is just making up the numbers time and time again. I observed Hannan and Harmes are the same as Tmac. I see that Pickett shows promise but it is far from ready. I think that Lockart is the same.I see Melksham is no leader and we really rely on big Max way too much. Sadly not the best from Oliver and Trac today with Gus close to his old form. Thanks to Viney and May who showed the other lads how to do it. Alas 3 or 4 players cant win a game. Was a huge game changer today and Im sure Im not alone in thinking we wont play finals. ????????
  23. Doggies mids showing ours all day how its done. Some serious broom sweeping rquired at the end of the year. Given how much we spent on fixing our backline can we please do the same at the other? Despite the last 3 weeks of blind support by most of is, its fair to say the pressure is back on the coach again. If we dont play finals and its more than likely after today we wont, then does Goodwin deserve a pass. If so then next is make or break for him.
  24. Guily as charged Im afraid.
