One of the best things about this start is watching Tom sticking it the doubters. It's also worth mentioning that our kicking for goal across the board has really improved. Makes a huge difference.

No it's was Franklin

How often do we just give it straight back?

We're starting to run hard now.

I love you Tommy

He only needs one to stay in the side

Max spoils Petty, goal for Swans ffs

He had some brilliant little passages but he's been tagged quite hard now.

Yes, he put it straight down aSwans players throat right in front of goal in demontime lucky it was touched off the boot

Yeah, he's jittery

And click goes our forward line

Geez Harmes just loves to stand in those tackles but then does nothing with it Swans are all around the ball Lucky we're kicking straight. Makes a huge difference.

The last couple of trips down south to the G, I've worn skins under my jeans. Much warmer! I'm Just another soft qlder

Melksham is having a run for some extra coin. ?

What instead of Pawn Stars and Ice Truckers?

That's a great point. Tom has a bigger tank and covers more ground. He provides a better marking target up the field and above all else, I still think he's a much better mark than the Weid. I'm still not sold on Weids marking ability above all else. I'm sure he'll get his chance this year in the seniors but Petty and Tmac is a better option.

Watching Harmes last week in the VFL, he didn't really star in a 100 point win and I don't think he's ready yet. Sparrow is fit, fills Vineys role well and is slowly improving. Harmes needs to earn a spot and be match fit.

What on earth is going on at this football club? This feels surreal. Let's go 8-0!

From the vision shown posted a couple of pages back (thanks whoever put it up), it's blurry but frame by frame you can see the blokes arm swing back and connect with Fritsch's face and Fritsch goes to ground (for a while) and come up with a bloodied mouth. I'm sure the AFL could produce better vision. It's intentional (not accidental as was Fritsch's) and had the same impact. Both should be graded as low. In the end it means nothing as far as a defence goes for the later incident. I think the way out is to show vision of the North Player continuing unhindered for the rest of the game. The impact grading is wrong. It's low, not medium. In reality, I'd be happy to cop the week suspension if: 1. There is consistency with MRO and their decisions, gradings and suspensions. 2. The MRO did not charge players based on what Tim Watson, Luke Darcy, David King and Cameron Ling etc think. I'm glad our club is standing up in so many ways this season.

Must have been purely accidental ?

Zeibel hit him. No commentary by the media, so no need for the MRP to review

Only if you're a superstar ?

At least two to three weeks according to the club via the Fox commentary today. I suspect we'll have to manage his loads for the rest of the year.

Bedford in for Melksham as well. Feel for Tomlinson. Quite worried for Viney too. I wonder if his game time might have to be managed for the rest of this season.

Hawkins = Geelong superstar and gets off Fritsch = Melbourne player one week for sure. And nothing will get done about Zeibel decking Fritsch behind play. Great game by Fritta today btw. He's really straightened up his kicking.
