Marty Hore is a beauty and l have said it before. TMAC 3 goals and the winning point he is starting to show form. One of the worst games of football but who cares we WON that is what counts. Goldcoast pushed the Wce away late and lost by 3 goals so it wasn't going to be a give me game. I am going to enjoy the weekend although it would have been miserable if we had been beaten. Winners are grinners and loses can please themselves.

Preuss should have been picked to play against the Suns today.

N Jones love the Guy. Stuck it out in the dark days and we had someone to lead us through possibly the worst of our era, Loyal till the end he really is a legend.

Steven May knows what he has done, just hope that his personal problems don't affect him mentally. Not to be scrutinised now. However give him the time to prepare and hopefully plays well and for the reasons he was bought to the club. Who hasn't made mistakes in life ? Forgiven for now.

What a joke fancy drinking a beer without a pie ! Which game was he at? Fair go!

So why can't he be ? Ask most clubs that if they had a Ruckman as good as Gawn would they have him? Thank God that he is with us. Our No 1 Player in the AFL.

Did you go on leave on Saturday?

Dunny was one of my favourites and played his best games Deep in the back line. Roos couldn't see him in our future look may it be right or wrong. That goes for other clubs that have fringe players and move on because of not being regulars. However some move on and become regulars and play good footy for the rest of their careers others you never here of again. Dunny served his purpose at our club when needed and if only you were more disciplined and more of a leader as you turned out at Coll/wood you might have been a regular and a leader in time. Hope things go well down the track for you. Might come back as an assistant one day who knows?

Good onya Nathan Jones l have never seen you back pedal and elude three Hawks as you kick a timely goal which was the start of the comeback early in the third quarter. Just starting to hit his strides after a few possies in the first half and finishing the game off strongly with a handball to Harmesy who kicked the winning goal. Nathan, you are still a valuable contributor.

Marty Hore He's a Beauty. J Lockhart Will make it. Harmesy Coming of age. Stretch Gaining the confidence Frosty Is getting better Gawn Holding his form T MAC He is back Salem A A form. REST Did their job. Well done Dees!

HARMESY BOG 31 poss 5 tackles 6 marks 1 vital goal ...Marty Hore is a BEAUTY! Jay Lockhart You are made for this game! Harmesy two 50 mrts against you but you didn't falter. You are a true star.

Elation The boys are gathering to sing the song go BOYS ......... Well done Frosty you held them together in the last 5 minutes when it counted and all day you were on song. Gawny Salem Gus and Lockhart ,He is a find. ELATED FOR ALL OF US THAT CARE FOR THIS GREAT cLUB.

Declan you deserve this chance and the Family can't wait enough to see you play against the Hawks tomorrow. Your parents will be nervous and mostly proud of you as well especially your Mum. Good luck and hope you and the boys do well. Enjoy the day you earned it.

We beat Geelong in a final at the MCG because they are an insecure team away from home in big games and Hawthorn as well in a final because we played a tough brand of football. We were on a role before the finals. We didn't look slow then. It is definitely a confidence problem and injuries play a big role .

Changes for this weeks game v Hawks from the Whisper. My source. Into the side Dicky, Barry and Harry . They are not injured. Out goes Larry, Daryl and his other brother Daryl all omitted. Can't go any wrong with these changes.

I was there in 1987 when Gary Lyon broke his leg on the outer wing at the Whitten oval and listening to the Hawks and Cats game for updates in the last Quarter as were the majority of the Melbourne supporters. The crowd cheering with excitement as we all were stuck on the radio listening to the game down Geelong where Dunstall kicks the goal to put the Hawks in front with less than a minute to go. The crowd goes wild as Melbourne are going to win but it is Hawthorn that wins and not the siren that blew at the Whitten oval against the Bulldogs. An amazing day as we win by 15 points make the finals for the first time in 23 years. The tear and joy and the smiles and elation a remarkable day of footy unforgettable. To see Robbie play in the finals was better than anything at the time. Steven Stretch and Todd Viney come to memory when l watch Billy and Jack play. OH WELL i GOT CARRIED AWAY.

Who knows what the selectors decide I just hope for Declan Keilty finally gets his chance to play. He had a good hit out against a strong Richmond side and kicked 2 goals as well .Can you ask for more as his form has stood up so far this year in the VFL. He can help our forward line as a big key forward and pinch hit in the ruck. Can also play as a key back. Could end up being a valuable player. If his form is holding up then why isn't Delcan given a chance? Come on Goody you haven't anything to lose now as you have already lost them. He deserves a game because he has earned it not given to him. Given and earned are two different meanings. IN Keilty and who ever OUT. ??? ask goody.

MB you make me laugh so hard that I'm crying right now Stop dreaming and wake up from your nightmare ! Petracca is needed. We will end up with a 1st round pick no Doubt. Constructive thinking you don't have. What is next !!!!!

Don't kid yourself there is no way back the rope is cut we are shot already. It's a pity for all of us who thought differently. A waste of paying extra for a Grand Final guarantee and it is a scam. A Member for 35 consecutive years. I hope to see the improvement somewhere for faith wise. However we are now on the bottom of the ladder Norf just jumped us on percentage tonight. Looking to the club being a big player in the Draft. I am not in denial l am facing the bitter truth.

Come on OD the kid is 19 and some take time. You have your opinion and so does sydee . He has time on his side to improve getting fitter and stronger at 22 he could end up being a very valuable player. Have the patience Spargo shows potential .We are all on the same side so give him the space. Wait and see.

Stick around Petty might be in next week. Have you been watching ? However Keilty deserves a game poor sole hard done by.

1. Gawn 2. Brayshaw 3. Oliver 4. Melksham 5. Stretch 6. Salem They are my Best and the same old. Stretch is the new inclusion had a good game. Hope he keep it going.

Unfortunately not good enough and watching the Tigers and the love they have playing for each other I envy them. Where is that fight ,where is that hunger, where is the love. The spirit seems to be missing. Stretch can hold his head up high and gave it his all. Gawny, Oliver, Brayshaw, Melksham ,Salem Viney and Marty Hore. The rest have some sole searching to do. Same olds holding us together. No more excuses l have heard it all before enough is enough.

A goer with mental toughness is better than skill and Tim Smith has mental toughness. He will have a HONEST RED HOT GO unlike some others. Football is more than SKILL. Don't you agree?

Tim is big and strong enough he can take contested marks and knows where the goals are. Although he has played a handful of games l think his majority of games are against the Tigers and played ok. I think Tim will be important to give Gawny a rest when needed. A good hard footballer who gets his chance and will give his all. You cannot ask for more.
