Neil Crompton

Well done Sam. Really pleased for you, particularly when it was on such a big occasion, in front of a massive crowd. Hope your progress is all upward from here.

With Goody still not settled on his best forward mix, I'd like to see Schache and JVR take on the key forward roles this week, with Petty heading back to defense. I think Petty is a key defender not a key forward. Since we do have Disco Turner politely knocking on the defense door, I'd actually like to see May take on a key forward role with JVR at some stage, while we are still experimenting. His strength and speed (when fit) and pack busting ability might well bring a "Hawkins" like beast into our forward line - something we just don't have with our other forwards. If the two options above fail, then we can always hope that, despite the visual evidence to the contrary, at least one of BBB and TMac are not over the hill as would first appear, and we play them again. Hopefully one of the first two options work.

All very well having the name and the height, but hopefully he can also play. Are there any reports on his ability?

I simply ask why we need this? Who is this benefitting? Certainly not the public. My preference is that players must see out their contracts; and that clubs must not trade players against their will. Simple.

Haha I didn’t think there was a lot of value in what was presented.

Can still win this despite the very disappointing effort so far.

Dunstan would be a world beater if he could even occasionally hit a target.

TMac and BBB both look like they belong at this VFL level.

Somehow I’ve landed on the shopping channel.

That notice sounds just like you PF. How did your interview go?

Now I know why my application for DA membership was rejected.

Congrats to Angus and Danielle on their engagement.

Agree Smokey. The first half of the season we should be a work in progress. The second half is where we put it all together.

I see you are hooked again BB. One post was all it took. It’s like a drug this Demonland - an evil temptation.

Why aren't you the best banner crew? Please lift your game WCW.

AFL version of comic con.

I don't mind sharing Penfolds with Carlton - as long as only we get the Grange.

? TMac 194; Petty 197; JVR 193.

I hope WCW is shouting food and petrol on the return home - she had a big win today!

Are you there yet?

Are you there yet?

It's like waiting for santa. Hopefully we have been good enough to get the gift. But maybe we haven't. There is definitely something in the air. I can smell it. It may just be the Adelaide rain, but on the other hand.....

what time is our game please? I'm confused - is it 4.10 Adelaide time or Melbourne time?

Haha, so you let an old don's supporter push in front of you in a queue for a beer - and you are 6 foot 6 and yet you did nothing? And you wonder why these essendon supporter "muppets" feel "self-entitled".
