  1. Personally if b brown commented on how I played I would drop the bloke next game. Afl is a basket case. No wonder we are losing kids to other sports. A joke !
  2. Sorry if this is off topic but why the [censored] is Dangerfield , Jenkins and the red ranga of nm the experts on Fox. This is it for me afl have lost the plot if they endorse this [censored] [censored].
  3. We will beat Geelong and Sydney. Buckle up the dees will hit their straps. I still think Goodwin is playing ducks and drakes!
  4. All things going well we will finish 6th and snag a home final. Here’s hoping!
  5. He will tear the dogs apart this weekend. No pun intended. I think he was spoken to and has no ambition to play in the 2’s . This weekend will be his best game yet.
  6. This guy is honestly amazing. Not only a good footy player but from all reports a great fella. He is the sort of guy you would have as your best man without having ever met him. And best of all he is a dees man through and through. We win the gf in 2019, he should be Australian of the year !
  7. Watch gaff every fortnight here in the west. 2 Years ago I would have said no. Now big YES! Has it all !
  8. Honestly you all need a good look at yourselves. The umpires are wonderful people who do a wonderful job. It never ceases to amaze me how we are favoured each game and yet we complain. Sorry, I am just bull shiting. They are a bunch of Manipulating twits. Who is responsible for them ? AFL?
  9. Like the look of this fella. Bit of dash, calm with the ball and long accurate kick. Will admit I do know him and he is a cracking fella too. Certainly worth a look.
  10. With Geelong going down this makes this game so important. I think a few of the make the 8 teams could drop games. We simply need to win the next 3. All we need this year is to make the eight. It will assist in attracting players to the club. 2019 will be our big year!
  11. There are too many issue with the rules and the people who govern it. I started watch nrl and have noticed that the refereeing is very simplistic. In soccer it is pretty straight forward. Shite I don’t understand union but it seems simple. AFL has got to fast all about how fast a kid can run so umpires can’t fully digest and there make assumptions on what has or will happen. It comes from the top. My over gripe is about commentating. Watch an nrl, World Cup epl game and listen to the commentating. Once again simple and straight to the point. No hyping of teams players etc. Another point, though I may get shot down is the AFLW. The AFL seem to think they are changing the world. Female sport ie soccer has been around a long time, has pathways and is professional in several countries already. Unfortunately the AFL is about stories and headlines. I predict Collingwood and Richmond will play in a flag as that is the story wanted this year. Unfortunately the AFL has become a circus. It may be the last year my family renew memberships and we follow 4 different clubs. Feel by paying I contribute to the circus. Sorry for the rant but had to get off the chest !
  12. No doubt a big game and up till last week we would have all said dees. Do we rise to the occasion and show our metal or sink Iike we did last week. Dees by 13 points in a grinding game. Dyson best on ground and petty the rising star nominee .
  13. Honestly no need to panic. We will make the 8 and don’t be surprised to see some big wins. I have been critical in the past but think the loss to Collingwood may be a blessing in disguise. I think the young lads will refresh over the break and be ready to create history. A top eight finish is all that is required this year.
  14. No aggression. There is a reason he wears a helmet during the game.
  15. Yes Jetta a dud. All Australian squad last year and likely in all Australian team this year. If we had 27 other duds like him ....... we are a better team than last year and these young guys will get better
  16. Fully agree. Speaking a hawks supporter who says d hawks at same stage we’re still getting panced weekly. The key for me is finding solid replacements for the older boys. Mature age types 24-27 to come in and take over from Vince etc. next year will be our year! As long as hogan stays. If not we will take freos 1st rounder 2nd rounder and a player of note. still think weeds can be the key forward!
  17. Going a bit out there 1. 7.5/10 better than last year 2. Jetta the guy is a star 3. The fridge 4. I think the Bulldogs. 5 day break after AS and got the job done with lever out first quarter 5. Lewis we got him for a reason now to show why 6. 3rd quarter against pies and hawks 7. 14 - 8 - 1 to finish 6th on percentage.
  18. Goal this year is to make the 8 simple. Next year will be the year. With that on mind start playing weeds, petty, Baker. This will not be a fairy tale year but a year to build up to it .
  19. Was [censored] today but also think it has been a crazy 6 weeks. The break and a refresh will only help. I suspect a slight adjustment in game play and a realisation that their future is in their hands. Jetta is a bloody star. He is also very involved behind the scenes with his work with the indigenous. He is now my number one see!
  20. 20 scoring shots double ours. This game is so annoying. Sorry for rant but this was the one to take into the bye. So angry but I guess we will learn from it. No Jack watts today. Just 22 head down players letting some overrated team beat us !
  21. A sad day and a reminder of why we will struggle to make the eight let alone gone to the following week. I hate Campbell brown but he was right. The bubble has burst. We are the bitcoin of the AFL. Over inflated and due for a crash. We may lose by 10 goals. No [censored] off.
  22. Let’s hope the knockers aren’t knocking after his first game back, in front of 80000. Good luck to him and let’s hope the dees stand tall .
