GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood
No-one seemed to be into my "let's rookie draft Tim Tszyu for one game dream", so my latest dream is that - Maynard is collected by the whole team and carried by his cruits in a rolling Maul all the way to section M33 and then thrown with gusto into the pies cheers squad. That would be a great way to start the game. Go Dees

PREGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood
Except all 3 of them are getting older. How do we keep him for another year or two to step in as those three start to fall struggle with older bodies. I question if Maysie is fit enough to be out there at the moment. (He'll probably play a blinder) Tommo is a vexing issue as I think he has the capability to be a permanent rock for us down back. He's just a very close run 4th at the moment

The Age Article: 'Enough is Enough' - Simon Goodwin.
After 50 odd years of following this team and the "we're going to come out hard or our culture is strong talk" tiresome. Won 7 Drew 1 Lost 14 In an era where we've been pretty good. Talky talky talky. Do it for Jimma, Do it for Troy, do it for Neale, do it for RDB, do it for Gus. I'd love to see us destroy them the Pies and Maynard. It would be great to even just even beat them by a point. I know it's the entertainment industry, but enough with the talk from the team. Close the doors, hunker down and get it right. WC and Freo were just not performances of a club displaying a strong culture. Do it for absolutely everyone at the club (as Gus said after the Granny). When all is said and done.....

PREGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood
It was one thing to go through the experience of watching Gus get ironed out, losing by a whisker and then being abused by pies supporters after the siren when they won anyway. It was icing on the cake sitting next to the AFL marketing team at lunch in a restaurant the following day. Their complete focus was not on the final series but how they could leverage maximum value for their commercial partners. I appreciate that's their job but seriously, half of them didn't even watch the whole game the night before. It really turned me off going to AFL games completely. Still love the game, local footy and the Dees, but I'm not up for the whole bombastic BS they offer. Go Dee's and love ya Gus

NON-MFC: Round 13
I think last week when they were hanging in there with the cats at Taxpayer haven, the commentators said that Richmond had now played every player in their squad in the seniors this year apart from a kid (a gun basketballer recruit) who was playing his first season of footy ever! Let that sink in, when we use lack of depth for an excuse and how we performed against Freo and WC. Richmond are at least competitive and I'm really happy for Adem to be doing so well with such a decimated team. You can see that attacking fast style of play coming through. The Lions used to be my 2nd team to barrack for when we were out, but I really dislike them now. I think I'll be going for the Tiges for a while now. Go Yze!

GAMEDAY: Rd 12 vs Fremantle
This has so much "Neeld feel" about it. Remember when you're highlight of a game was a good chase down tackle? When you just had to be happy to watch a young bloke like Windsor bust his guts? I've really got the Needs nostalgia going here It's like a Trainwreck and I just can't seem to turn the tv off.

NON-MFC: Round 12
The legalisation of shoving players both hands in the back to get them out of the way to take a mark is driving me quite spare
