I'm expecting a backs to the wall type response from our football club.

I don't understand all the miserable sods on here. Our average losing margin is 9pts FFS and we're 2/3 into a season 2nd on the ladder. I think this might be Burgo's final gift to the club, the Malcolm Blight inspired mini pre season within the season. Goody lived it in 97 and 98, could be onto something here Bin.

Agree with how we are losing clearances and winning alot of ball from our defence and going along the boundary. Every man and their dog can see we are playing a key tall short, I just think they want him to play higher going forward. Actually can't remember him taking a grab inside 50, i feel They will go with Tmac as the connector with Action and BBB inside F50. In an ideal world coming off 6 days BBB would have played against BWS going on the amount of game time he played for Casey. Hoping for it to go well Thurs night.

I have a theory they have moved Tmac higher in a CHF capacity in anticipation for the return of BBB to FF.

100% Capacity for Thursday Night, I'll be there? ??

Capacity to 100% Thursday Night? ??

Some of the decisions he made weren't really made in the interests of Geelong. No,no,no not at all far from it, it was always in the best interests of the AFL. He did a fantastic job. He couldn't have jumped quicker at the chance to get back to the [censored] Palace though could he?

Took the words right out of my mouth.?

Why would BBB be a nervous selection? We need to find out whether he can sink or swim the time is now lad.

I think we generate more score with Melksham in our forward 50. BBB will open up our Forward 50 tremendously. Im anticipating 3 changes for Thursday night.

Let there be light.

I would like to think they were planning for this exact scenario, in one sense they have made him earn it. Over to you now Coaches end the experiment and do the correct thing by the team.

If their was a positive to come out of today it's that our experiment with no primary Full Forward is over. Bring him in (BBB) and keep him in until the end of the our campaign.

When the game was up for grab in the last and we were under pressure, we continue to launch it in to a 1 on 2 and the player they were kicking it to was Fritta. I don't know at what point did the coaches ever think a Tmac and Action/Gawn forward line was going to cut the mustard in the cut and thrust of finals football. I can understand leaving BBB out today because of the short turn around but if he's not there come Thursday Night you can forget about being competitive in September with our current Forward set up.

I thought they were specials tonight. On last weeks performance and the previous couple of games, Hawks look much improved aswell.

Goes to show how important last weeks win was. Essendon not push overs anymore no matter how much cheating they have done in the past. They could win a final or two with the amount of run and their set up behind the ball.

50% for the Crows v Lions no word on Crowd size for Thursday Night. I would say without any knowledge that it should be at least 75% if not 100%. I see no reason why it wouldnt be 100% with no community transmissions, the 5 cases who were in NT did the right thing and quarantined as soon as they got home.

I don't like the [censored] either but i reckon they are value at the line tommorow night.

Where have the green umpire uniforms disappeared to? Is it really that hard AFL?

No lockdown in SA. Cases were a family of 5 from the NT mines cluster and have been self isolating at home from day 1. dodged a bullet.

Harsh Jaded.

Them the perks of being on top, we've earn't the right for favourable umpiring. We've had to deal with this sort of crap for years upon years don't feel sorry for them. They will have to wait another 2-3 year to play finals the cheats. long way to go for them. We are going to encounter teams playing like this is their big final for the year, its really good practice for the bigger games coming up. Our systems stand up, they came at us with all they had and we did enough to get the result we wanted, thats all you have to do at this point in the season. We don't need to be playing september footy in June, long way to go just keep racking up the 4pts Dees, thank you very much. Is Don is good.

Highlight for me was the final siren and the chorus of boos from the cheats. The belting out of the song from the MCG loud speakers, Its a grand old flag its a high flying flag felt special, which completely drowned the pack of A holes out.

Fritta would want to be pulling his finger out very soon otherwise a swap with BBB and maintaining our 3 pronged mosquito fleet spargs, ANB and Kosi may be on the cards. Its the only way we can accommodate Tmac, Action and BBB in the same side. We need to maintain the overall balance of our line up and i see this as a logical progressive step towards a greater forward marking presence.

Jonesy playing like his life is depending on it, keep it up Jonesy, dont stop believing.
