Previously known as LITD.

Viney is down an average of five disposals per game compared to last year so yes he's down in form. I'm not saying he's playing badly but he's not playing near the level he was last year. He really stepped up when Oliver was out but hasn't been as good this year. Maybe he will step up again but he was much better last year.

We are so cooked losing Trac this year. Aside from Max of all players Trac out his huge. A year in which Sparrow is still treading water and hasn't stepped up still, Oliver down in form and Viney too. ....Trac out is huge. I imagine his loss is felt by all and I wonder if we haven't lost a lot of collective motivation with him.

I understand Dr Flatulence was a lonely man. Known to his colleagues as Thunderpants.

Naming storms and the like after people always seems a little odd to me. Do we do it for earthquakes or wars? Even stranger is people who discover diseases and then name it after themselves. What a nice way to be remembered.

Fair call. I've been critical but your right, it doesn't help.

I hope he stays with us for his whole career. Looks very much like a keeper.

All for Maysie being fined as he absolutely staged a hurt head. Not a good thing. I think it was a very poor call by May in that the Afls and umps are trying their best to protect the heads of players and this kind of thing makes it harder. That said I get May trying to do the team thing and milk a free kick . Players have done this since the very first bounce. Now my only hope is for consistency. But there hardly ever is. And while we are fining players, can we please start emptying their pockets for all infringements. Including the ducking of the head for milking frees. Some players at some clubs are so good at it almost seems they have been coached how.

True but last year revealed our deficiency in good forwards so I'm suggesting the list wasn't as great in terms of two flags.

A lot of senior players just turning up and not playing with passion.

Lucky to play. Very very lucky

Clearly we had a good list in 21 but it obviously wasn't as great as we thought it was.

Especially Chandler.

Given how much we struggled fwd, it's a lot for Jvr.

For the first half it was great to see a connection at chf where someone could take a mark. But that should be the norm. Petty was good but sadly disappeared completely in the second half. An improvement yes but all up not a great game. But none of our fwds stood tall against the worst side in the comp. Especially Fritta who is now also struggling a lot. Our fwd line is way off. Has been for years.Go figure. It's not like it's important. We have the best midfield and backline. Oh wait.

Or has 70 less than the opposition?

A three point win is actually pretty good if one looks at the stats We were beaten in disposals, marks and every other stat that's important. Smashed in the clearances. Even the i50s. We did win the hit outs.

Once again a forward line that falls down again. 11 goals against the bottom side. That includes you too Fritta. And before anyone says it was bombed in, I didn't see too many players leading into space so there's that. So sad to get excited to see Petty marking at half forward and being a connection we so desperately need when that's what he is actually paid to do.

Thanks JV and Max. I know it's a win but hmmm only just. Great effort in the dying stages from young Brown.

The steam of Maxy's bald head. Ha.

Hmmm.

Good not be nervous for a change.

Petty checked out at half time after he got ten touches. Job done.

I think we deserve to lose this. Except for the umps and commentary I hope we don't.

They are clearly trying to get North across the line. And here's me hoping for a % win. Silly me.

Salem has to be injured surely? Chandler, Oliver, Nibbler, Kozzie and Fritta ...all experienced players have a lot to answer tonight. This is the bottom team and they couldn't turn up.
