Previously known as LITD.

And the old hospital handballs. Sheesh

Weak weak weak tackles.

Why was Tracca being nice to Maynard?

In other news.. Happy birthday Charlie.

I think he will.

Best of luck Maynard. Not.

Not sold on Laurie. Gets a full game today .

They had to reply the Maynard act fgs.

If we win by any amount, it will be a win for the ages.

From our named fwd line of Jvr, Fritta, Petty, Chandler, Kozzie and Anb we have averaged 40 points. I wouldn't be surprised if we saw Tmac moved again. Something has to change

Nowhere to hide today. Everyone under the spotlight. Should be interesting.

Glad Jvr is back. Surely Fritta is due for a bag or Kozzie? Come on fwds do your job. Same to Mids. Fire up I suspect we will be competitive for three quarters and probably beaten in the last. We have certainly painted ourselves into a corner talking this one up.

I'm sure we could all pass the hat and soften the blow( not on Maynard of course,). I'm not sure the lads will go after Maynard today. It will be interesting to see what will happen. Have they been given directions to just play the ball or will Goody use the incident to rev them up? There is the distinct possibility we will be sidetracked by the Maynard thing but it will probably be worth it. A blokes career was stolen from him so it warrants recompense. My monies on JV or JvR and a rare outburst from CP.

I would like to see Maynard dealt with but not sure if we want to be distracted by him. Nah, let's do him in.

Id much prefer him to Billings or Laurie.

Question to those who follow Casey. Have Billings and Howes excelled since their games against the Eagles. Have they warranted selection so soon? Also if Petty doesn't turn things around tomorrow, at what stage is Goody forced to drop him?( If he isn't already).

Woey has been very good. I know I can kick at least 35. Or used to a few years ago.

Fair call but his kicking distance can't be excused by conditioning. You either can kick the ball more than thirty or you can't. No amount of game time is going to fix that I'm afraid.

I hope not. Last time he was sub against the pies he barely touched it. And he played almost the entire game. Shocking selection by Goody last year in the final.

I know. I was so disappointed in everyone else. I thought they were shell shocked or something but still they should have done something. When your teammate is lying flat on his back in the middle of the field , it's time to show a big response. Great effort from Jack but it was tumbleweeds from everyone else.

Time to blood some more players. Tired of Billings, Hunter and the usual suspects. Also McAdam needs to be dropped. Im not sure I've seen a forward who cannot kick a ball thirty metres. It's just not up to standard unfortunately.

Has the team been announced? If so any link please?

Fully agree with this. I guess the club is trying to do the right thing for its supporters and give them reassurance and hope etc . But what I find really difficult to deal with is when after some good games like the whole gather round, is the gloating and self congrats. We should learn to keep a lid on things. But if we haven't learnt by now , I'm not sure we will. I know there are media demands but maybe we should buck the trend and keep silent until a flag is won again. I thought we celebrated too much after beating the Crows and power over in S A . Since then the wheels have fallen off. The problem with talking the club up after some really poor form is that if we lose against the pies then we have nowhere to go and nothing else to say for other games. Best to say no comment and do any talking on the field.

He really is struggling this year. Jack Viney's been okay but he was in much better form last year. Combine Sparrow who rarely shines and you can see a once most touted midfield no longer killing it. And then throw in the catch of having to move Tracca into the fwd line and it certainly explains why the docker's slaughtered is in the clearances. The bang, bang, bang is sadly no more.
