We're so lucky to have Max. I lived overseas for 20 years and never saw Dean Cox play. The only other ruckman I'd rate alongside him is Simon Madden who was a far better forward.

If the Saints are less than six goals up by the time we wake up half way through the second I'm confident we'll run them down.

Annoying when you're looking forward to watching some football on a Friday night only to find out Collingwood are playing.

I work with a rusted on Swans season ticket holder and he hates going up there because nobody watches the game. They're all constantly going to the bar, talking or looking at their phones. They also like getting tarted up like they're going to the theatre. Swans games are an occasion to be seen at, not to see the Swans, apparently.

May have also been the game where T-Mac hurt his foot and Lingers had his ribs broken?

I think it has less to do with game style and personnel and more to do with our lack of intensity and commitment to an all team defence within games.

I'm quite enjoying this banter between 1975 and 2024.

Looks like the boys circled Perth in as a holiday on the calendar instead of another business trip.

Hi 640MD. I remember him. He wore a torn up old red & blue cap to our games and was part of the 'grog squad' that stood behind the cheer squad with Ian Ball and 'Animal' in the 1980's. I started running the CS with some friends from around the mid 80's when we sat near the race in the Northern Stand. From memory our immediate predecessors were the Galvins and a guy called Peter Burley? It sounds like you were from the era before them maybe?

Blues still over 100%. Disappointing.

LOL. At this rate Carlton will finish this weekend 10th with a % under 100.

Absolutely TC. You won't see them up in the NT again anytime soon. Bet on it.

A roofed stadium would help deal with the humidity and temperature problem. We could get out of playing there however by agreeing to an annual clash in Alice Springs (for our usual $800k fee of course).

You can just about guarantee that avoiding a game up there will be on every 'big' Victorian team's fixture wish list for 2025.

Should be a fun 1am red eye flight back to Melbourne for the cats.

If Cats lose by 100 points will Scott mention the opposition in his presser? 😂

Darwin Suns. Promote Southport Sharks from VFL to AFL and move them into Carrara. Twenty team competition.

Looks like we broke the 2024 cats 😂

I think Richmond's poor performances make it harder to tell if Dusty could play a restricted but dynamic short term role for a better side. It's more likely he walks into the sunset at season's end than to the Suns.

Has Narrm won a game yet?

You couldn't really see Brisbane making top four now with three and a half wins out of nine games. It's probably down to seven sides now as Essendon won't be there either.

So far Essendon have beaten the teams sitting 11, 12, 14, 15 & 16 on the ladder and drawn with 9. Three of their wins by a combined 13 points. Their next three are against teams sitting 18, 17 & 10. Even a loss today could still see them with 8.5 wins out of 12 games.

Saints finding their natural level.

Avoid any media coverage. Period.
