  1. Is Kossie subbed out?
  2. I think Disco will morph into Cam Pedo and take the lions share of the ruck work.
  3. If in case you were not already convinced, this selection simply proves that Max is irreplaceable!
  4. Daisy Pearce heard this and she has now put her hand up for the job.
  5. I wonder why itโ€™s taken this long (ie 3/4 of a season) for surgery to be actioned? And it wonโ€™t be a quick recovery Iโ€™ll bet. Poor guy.

    At this stage Iโ€™m not getting too excited by a rumour posted by a click bait jock with little credibility - unless of course ET confirms it.
  7. I cannot believe it but the Weid was suspended for 3(?) games for a high hit on someone. Who said he had no appetite for a contest?
  8. I got the flu just reading that!
  9. Haha no, genuine.
  10. The indirect connection is via the aspleendix nerve which may have been inflamed by Tracโ€™s injury.
  11. Binny, do you know what those roles are? If yes, could you please explain, as itโ€™s not so obvious to me. Also, is he โ€œsucceedingโ€ in those roles, and could you suggest someone else who might play those roles instead - ie why Sparrow? Ta.
  12. Haha Or is it an epistrophe? I cannot tell in this case.
  13. With Max out, it will be interesting to see if our centre clearance work declines or improves. I believe the opposition always sets up for Max at CBโ€™s hence why our clearance rate is lower than it should be. I wonder with our new ruck this week, whether we will turn the tables and set up for their ruckmen. Hope Maxโ€™s injury is not too bad ( but knowing our luck โ€ฆโ€ฆ). Max could do with a rest and freshen up before the finals anyway.
  14. Which witch is which Deevs?
  15. Itโ€™s now quite obvious why Old Dee.
  16. Youโ€™re a poet Goffy, I feel as though I was with you. (spotting bogons is a habit of mine)
  17. Are we looking for back ups or are we looking for mids who one day will take Vineyโ€™s and Oliverโ€™s positions? As weโ€™ve seen, back ups havenโ€™t really done us a lot of good.

    You donโ€™t have a first team?
  19. I hope they keep Tholstrup and give him a decent run. Then perhaps Windsor as sub as he hasnโ€™t done a lot the past couple of games and his kicking and handball radar has been well off.
  20. I see an old bell ringer from Notre Dame
  21. Weddings and holidays - for essential workers (like Andy) - are supposed to be taken after the season ends - not during! How selfish!
  22. David Schwartz suggesting Dees go all out to get Max King - suggesting we could trade JVR for him! I donโ€™t think so Mr Schwartz.

    I hope you and your misery have a great holiday. But why wait for September?
  24. I felt worse after last weeks game. Huge improvement for 3 quarters. Great signs from Oliver and AMW. Viney was superb.

    Haha Obviously now time to revert back to the previous name. Or something like โ€œI may not be Jaded but Iโ€™m [censored]โ€.
