It may be political at times and others legal but one thing is for sure Mr R. Leg.... USA politics is back to being juicy again. Just like the old days with Clinton and Monica 😁

Thanks , I've got some bourbon in reserve for that.

Interesting changes. Yours is a fair call. Salo is a big out but it's not like we don't have him covered. But Smith was/ is underated as a forward for me. Other than that, tonight is a much better team. Carlton were so lucky in Milk going down, Jvr removing himself and Tmac injured and at the wrong end of the ground. And poor Viney played one of his best finals ever to the point of exhaustion that he didn't have enough left to extend that last kick. Not to mention of course losing a premier player in Gus and the possible resulting low morale. We lost that final by poor fwd entries and a couple of iffy last minute decisions. But make no mistake, mostly due to injuries, suspension and Maynard.

Curnow and McKay combine for a 47 goal tally. Fritta and Kozzy have 33( Fritta with 21 so not far off Curnow) l know we have the best defense in the land but it will be tested tonight. And it's fair to say at least one of our talls needs to step up tonight and hit the scoreboard. It's a coin flip how they will go goal wise. Turner a two time fwd was without a goal v cats as was Jvr. The latter only scoring Two goals from his last Three outings is slim pickings for him. He's even been missing shots he normally buries. Petty worse in this area but if last week doesn't give confidence that this will change then nothing will. Carlton's forward line is going to score despite our three horsemen down back, so our talls must do some damage. We know that Jvr and Petty can, so I'm hoping they will with at least two goals a piece. Disco the wild card and perhaps Chin and Nibbler helping Kozzie out given that our talls have certainly been getting the ball to ground.

I feel more confident having Woey as the sub. Ironically was one his best games last week. But now we have the sort of sub that really can come on for the final 30 and actually have a solid impact. If Bowey manages to play well and run out the whole game, l would not be surprised to see SoSW play up forward with one or two sausage rolls.

Afl doing sfa to curb pressure on inflation and interest rates. Play on. One beer a quarter and you've spent enough to buy a slab. Sheesh.

I won't forget this one. This bloke could kick a goal inside a matchbook. Quite a similar goal to his last against cats.

I thought you may have been around in 75 Uncle. I guess a mishap every 100 odd years isn't too bad. I suppose it's pretty good. Plus Australians don't have the same level of hatred some Yanks have towards Government. We've never really had a civil war. Maybe some miners complaining about fees but nothing serious enough that brother turns on brother.

The big takeaway from the cats v blues game was how easy the cats hurt them from the rebound. The cats moved the ball from their backline at breakneck speed and the blues looked powerless to stop them at time. I hope we can do the same. Players like Windsor, Tracca Kozzie and Langdon should have big nights. It would be wonderful to move the ball like that so Fritta and Co have some space. I'm really bouyed by Petty's return to form who's was that marking connection we have really been missing. Hopefully Jvr can hold a few more of his and we should be able to dominate this mob.

It's a bit of an unknown quantity somewhat. Yes we can bank on Fritta and Kozzie but our talls are the interesting factor. If two of Turner, Petty and Jvr perform, I reckon we've got this.

I didn't feel confident against Geelong and I don't tonight. I should though after the Cats win. I feel like this will be another arm wrestle. Can we win two close ones in a week? I'm worried about the five day break. Apparently it was a very light training run which makes sense. I know Frittas good for his three goals and Kozzie for his usually two but who else will kick them? I think 90 points is a winning score. I know we have the best defense in the comp but Blues fwds are very dangerous. We can't rely on just keeping them to a few. If we do win, it will well and truly set up our season. I'm excited to see if Petty continues his form. And to see what young Windsor does again tonight. And of course Kozzie. He's always exciting.

They should just change it to Tassie devils.

One gutsy player.

Good thing Bowey is back. Otherwise it would be eight changes to the last time we met. An in form Petty will be the difference tonight.

Us. Surely we need to include Tom these days. Sorry Binman. I misread your post. I thought you were talking about our defenders not fwds.

..... that's three for me.

Ok game day check list. Mates invited....check. Dons franks... check. Bread rolls... check. Drinks menu....vb vb and vb check. All ready. Go Dees.

Correct it was the two acts of trying to alter the outcome of an election by paying to hide said affair and then cooking ze books via Cohen being paid. Not really a prisonable offence but still crooked. Kind of ironic. I agree it's political. But then he should have been imprisoned a while ago now for the Jan six treason. Lying about the election. Assembling a crowd Inciting a crowd and directing the mob to march on the Capitol where several cops were killed. Then watching it live on TV and doing nothing. Hanging offence.

Paying hush money isn’t illegal on its own, but authorities say the payments made to suppress stories about Trump amounted to illegal campaign contributions.

Political or not, the law is very explicit about falsifying accounts.

Can you please ask coaching staff to take it easy today? A light little frolic followed by an Arvo of cucumber sandwiches and some tea perhaps? Big evening tomorrow. ( Eyes on Bowey please to see if you think he will play).

Does politics get any better.... At 10.30am Tuesday in a New York City courtroom, five words changed the course of American history: “The people call Stormy Daniels.” 😃😃😃

The more I think about it, I'm not a fan. Maybe chip in a bit more to spruce up the medals but it's what they represent that gives them their value. And it's not like the same players get them every year. We all know how hard they are to come by. Plus players don't do it too tough with their end of season holiday and their salaries these days. Hard to fathom fifty years ago your plumber would be fixing your dunny on a Friday night and then playing at the MCG the next. But back to rings yea, na for me.

Feel sorry for Woey. He played really well. Maybe Bowey is sub for a limited return after a long absence?

The five day break will be interesting. It may be negated somewhat by the bye we had. In some ways this game is as big as last week's. Win this and I feel a little smug. A follow up from Petty would be nice with a couple of goals added on. Hopefully Anb and JV can be at their best to combine with an inform Oliver and Max. Can't wait to watch young Windsor again. And some Kozzie brilliance as well. Thanks to all dlanders who got to the game last week and made a lot of noise.
