Are you convinced or are you confused, D? Because I'm convinced you're confused.

Time to let it go D - we are all very well aware of your thoughts by now.

Because of that statement, BDA, you may have now sentenced us to lose against Freo. How could you have been so thoughtless?

I have a concern that we have a 23rd player every week missing a game of football - unless there is a concussion. Would an alternative be that if someone is outed with concussion, that the affected team is simply allowed to increase interchanges for the remainder of the match as compensation?

I’m amazed how cool you have remained rjay. You’re a better man than I.

If true, then we'll just have to come up with another excuse.

Can someone please inform me of when Joel Smith did his finger? Was he playing last Monday and dislocated it, or did he do it at some other training session? Not sure where or when I read it, but i think they said he would be out for three weeks. If he did it last Monday, then I think "test" would be the wrong description for him in the above table.

Following the very poor showing yesterday, I'd like to send TMac, Spargo, Baker, AVB, Harmes, Tomlinson, Jetta, Jones, Jordon, Sparrow and Bedford back to the VFL next weekend to try and earn themselves a spot for Round 1. Chock certainly has his hands full improving the skills of this lot. However, given that it is likely that all of Viney, BB, Weid, Hibberd and Melksham will be out for Round 1, some of the above will get call ups, but hopefully only based on performance. My team would be: Rivers May Lever Hunt Petty Salem Langdon Petracca Tomlinson Pickett MBrown Fritsch Chandler TMac Jackson Gawn Brayshaw Oliver INT: ANB Jones Bowey Harmes. To me, Petty has to come in, and therefore, until we have a better option (which I don't think will be any time this year) I'd move Tomlinson onto the wing - its what we bought him for and he is the model we based getting Rosman on. Given the lack of form of our injury free key forwards, I think we need to entrust Mitch Brown to the CHF role for now, and put TMac back to FF where I think he played his best footy back in 2018. That should also free up Jackson from having the best defenders on him (at least initially). When it came to picking the interchange players, I found I couldn't find one player that would make the best 22 in virtually any other AFL team. I may have forgotten someone but the lack of depth really concerns me. When we get back our injured players, these guys will struggle to make the bench IMO, unless they dramatically improve their skills and their form. That's a bit harsh on Bowey, who I think will become a player. he certainly has the disposal skills we so desperately need.

I think we won't lose a game till we play Freo.

Imagine a convoy of range rovers linked end to end.

Trying to make sense of all of the above, and particularly Max's comments, please let me know if i have this wrong: If we zip the lips Park the ego trips, Listen to our leadership, Then at our fingertips Are multiple premierships.

I wouldn't be so hot-to-trot on that bet if i were you Bombay, 'cause you know as sure as [censored] that if you do place that bet that the only game that North will win will be against us! So turn on the aircon and cool your jets.

some people obviously enjoy hitting their heads against a brick wall.

You've completely lost me mate. Try again

First post and already complaining! Haha you’ll fit in just fine here. Welcome NightWalker.

It’s Clary’s 100 game. Both he and we deserve to celebrate that milestone at the G. FO Essendon.

Do you? Given that so many on here were ready to label him the second coming based on absolutely no exposed form, why would you find it funny that people are jumping off the bandwagon after actually seeing him play? while I hope he does become a decent player one day - it just ain’t today. As others have stated, he looks a long way off it at this point in time.

While my father played for the swans, it was only because of the inspirational Ronald Dale Barassi that I started following the Dees. You bast ard Ron!

We have a great Mod called Andy, Code of Conduct his Modus Operandi But often with words, The lines get blurred, When they do, he's our vigilant vigilante.

I heard he followed Oscar to Carlton.

I agree Demonstone, why do we need a whipping boy! We already have a coach!

Unfortunately I jinxed the ladies. New headline: ”Deadeye Dogs Devour Dodgy Dees”

Good luck today ladies. By the end of the day, I hope to see the following headline: ”Devastating Demons Destroy Disappointing Dogs”

Sad i know, but any win will do me.
