POSTGAME: Rd 11 vs Western Bulldogs
In the pre game picked us to win by 26. Only a couple out but boy have we some more improvement to go. Excited what this club can do as I think again we were not at our best but did what was required. Great effort and bring on the Lions wherever we may play.

GAMEDAY: Rd 11 vs Western Bulldogs
I'm slightly confident in as much as selected us to win by 26 points. Mad I know but have a gut feel that the Weid and Fritta may actually play tonight as I didn't see them last week. Petty to also finally have a break out game and the rest perform to their best and a win is coming. I hope!!

CHANGES: Rd 11 vs Western Bulldogs
Concur Lord Nev. We looked a bit flat plus Crows played well and Umpires didn't assist (late any way) and we only lost by a point. So it's not all doom and gloom in my view. Other than Oliver no one else dominated so get 6-7 more fired up and we are still a chance Friday night. Have to be at our best.

My 3 word player analysis V Adelaide
Agree but he needs to start taking some grabs for us and stop fumbling. Thought he was a bit off yesterday but plenty of upside

My 3 word player analysis V Adelaide
Weids, Spargo, ANB, Petty, Jacko, Jetta, Fritta - DID THEY PLAY

VOTES: Rd 10 vs Adelaide
Give them all to Oliver please. Rest just average.

CHANGES: Rd 11 vs Western Bulldogs
Boy oh boy Earl. Our forward line today was supposed to stretch a young and inexperienced Crow backline. But I see we only had a couple playing in forwards as Spargo, ANB, Weids plus TMac did next to nothing. Agree with Sparrow and BBB in and hope Salem is fit. Doubt Viney will play. Harmes to stay and Jetta unfortunately has played his last game with Weids and Melk also out. We played crap away from home and only lost by a point so something to take out but we need to improve about 25% to be in with a chance against the Dogs.

Sound like the Tigers Coach!!! I think we lost it not the Umps

CHANGES: Rd 10 vs Adelaide
I'm with you Mono. No change. Give Jacko an extra week to fully recover from his finger injury and he will be cherry right for Dogs, Lions and Pies then gets another rest. Let the Weid and BB have another game together and Chandler to stay also and hopefully show us what's he got against Crows. Then we have massive decisions for Dogs game.

Why Oliver is More Dangerous Than You Think
AND the scary thing is he will get even BETTER

CHANGES: Rd 10 vs Adelaide
You do not rest players for sake of resting. If badly sore/half injured yes but we play our best side each week and remember in a few weeks they all can have a rest at the bye. Never, NEVER put players out for a rest only. Keep the system going as it seems to be OK to me.

The Weid is Back!
Yep it is all up to Sam now. Has his chance and MUST take it. Time to perform Sam for yours and teams sake.
-
Centre Clearances - Considered Analysis Requested.
Yep Clint. We need to sort this out ASAP and at least even it up. We win our share of centre clearances which allows BBB and TMac plus the smalls to be one out and good chances for quick goals. Keep it up same as last night and very difficult to keep kicking winning scores from back half.

1964 memories- calling our older supporters
We certainly have quite a few older, long suffering supporters. I was 12 at the time and went to the game with a mate and his dad. What sticks out for me about that day was after the game we raced to the rooms as in those days you could get into the rooms after the game. On this GF day though we couldn't get into our rooms as they were full, so we went into the Magpies rooms and there was big Gabbo sitting down in his full kit with a bottle of Melb Bitter in his hand. Never will forget it.

GAMEDAY: Rd 08 vs Sydney
How's the weather down there for us Qld fans. Will the forecast rain hold off ?

Sam Weideman re-signs until 2023
He's still only young as a key forward and really has done nothing to excite me. Potential is such a bad word. This aside I hope he stays with this group as his time will come and be a big part of the dynasty that is building. Stay with a group that is gong places or get a game in a shambles of a side/club for sake of playing one's. For me I would bide my time as a game is not that far away. Then it is up to him to deliver.

Christian Petracca is A Demon For Life
Also as the years move on you would think the cap will go higher therefore money to cover Kozzie and Jacko etc.

Bayley Fritsch cleared of striking
I reckon. It's amazing that GW makes comments on the physical side of the game when he never played and even now would not get a game in the under 12's and just follows up on the so called footy writer for the HS view. Not sure if Robbo played but he also would not know what physical stuff is as he would have been under the weather on the Saturday from Friday nights sessions. Both absolute useless and never bothered to mention their boyfriends incident in the GF last year which was worse than Fritta's and got off.
-
Excited?
A long way to go however if you asked me at the start if we would be 7 Zip I would have committed you to the looney bin. Take the 7/Zip and hopefully move on. Just hope when we do lose a game that we bounce back the next week. With this start I am looking for a top 2 finish and home finals.

Bayley Fritsch cleared of striking
Have to appeal. Yes he got him in the head but the guy was actually going in low and nearly falling. As mentioned in another post if he was upright it would be a chest fend off. We must appeal and if not shows the club is still weak and a puppet of the AFL. Show some support to the players please CEO etc.
-
CHANGES: Rd 08 vs Sydney
Yes but wasn't out marked thus giving our other forwards chances.
-
CHANGES: Rd 08 vs Sydney
He will be better for the run remembering has not played for a long time. Fact was we were beaten up around the ball early but as is happening this season we found a way to get back into the game then run away with it. Brown also brought the ball to ground which helped Fritta and Kozzy score. Good signs and as minimal changes as possible. Cover for those injured only. No dropping on form for this game
-
CHANGES: Rd 08 vs Sydney
No way. The North player was falling into Fritta and led with his head. If he was upright then the fend off was at chest height. I reckon he has nothing to answer for.

NON MFC: Rd 07 2021
Love it that the Collywobbles lost to the Suns even though I picked Magpies happy they lost. Bring on QB
