  1. Was just reading team stats for the year and discovered that we r number one for possessions and top 4 for goals scored. Huge improvement on last year. Not confident for west coast but was the same with crows and dogs so to quote Viney: Anythings possible.
  2. Um its a long shot but yea its all his bloody fault. John never liked him either.
  3. Great thread. He deserves our admiration.
  4. I wonder how much time Gawn will play. I think he will spend a quarter the bench and a quarter up forward. All we have to do up forward is get the ball down on the ground and let Garlett and company do the rest. Jeffy is on fire this year. Trac in midfield is smart. Vince in midfield is an option as I'm not sure hes suited to being in the backline. Jones is the only out then which is unfortunate (that punch of his was fantastic) but I doubt he will miss Swans game....hes a tough as they come.
  5. All I know is hes now got the runs on the board. Some interesting selections at times but he gets an A plus in every other area. This club isnt just doing well it has a pool of young talent that will only keep getting better.
  6. Maybe now the belief factor will help: the old " It cant be done because its never been done" Like the 4 minute mile. After it was broken it was smashed. I concur with Diamonds view of: "From a spectator viewpoint I dislike the bye ... a complete halt to the momentum of the season If it were the Dees that got the benefit of the bye then that is different."
  7. When you start scratching your head over this its a good sign. (or a scalp condition).
  8. Forgot about Brayshaw. Hes a big one. Agree with Wagner, Weid, Vanders and maybe stretch. Not a bad list then.
  9. Was kind of thinking the same thing which is why I wanted other opinions.Our top 22 is awesome but every team cops injuries. Need to keep recruiting the way we have and a flag will come.
  10. Heard someone say that your not a serious contender without five or six high quality players competing for selection. For everyone its clearly Gawn and Hogan. Who are the other 4, assuming everyone from dogs game is included?
  11. Bugg was lucky we won after his taunts and great to see him kick straight for once after his lucky free kick.
  12. Agreed but too stoked to care . Just glad hes there now. Selection is bloody is tough. So many screamed for O macs head and look at him now. 20/20 Hindsight is a luxury the Fd dont have I suppose.
  13. How good to watch all of the replay for once.
  14. UM Yes We killed the line and moved in with its missus.
  15. Agreed I know he has improved and lost weight but I seriously think he was always undervalued. (Dawes was always picked over him.) Anyway H20 under the bridge and Im glad hes there. Still singing theme song.
  16. Starting to understand how poorly Pedo was treated by not being selected for many games. At least now the FD knows he is in our best 22.
  17. No doubt we have been flying under the radar until now. Media have forgotten we lost 2 games under a goal as well as 1 from poor kicking (geelong) and 1 from injuries (rich). Add in the best AFL ruckman missing as well as a talented full forward out and we have been ignored by many. Perhaps now they will pay attention to a club that is full of young talent and seriously going places. After a decade of darkness.......the future is very bright.
  18. Cant stop smiling. What is this joyous feeling? Cant fight it....keep bursting out into renditions of Grand old flag.
  19. Cant remember seeing a player improve so much. He was a superstar today. There have been times when we were all scratching our heads over him. He played like a 200 gamer today with so much confidence and poise.
  20. As well as those who make way for Hogan and Gawn.
