Someone has been on the catnip again.

I feared the worst when they closed to within a goal and BBB was subbed off but that middle part of the third quarter when we wrestled back control was fantastic to witness. Three debutants already this year in contrast to 2022 when we arguably wore the same small squad of players into the ground causing Toby Bedford to look elsewhere.

Looks like those hard fought wins against umm, Hawthorn and Gold Coast have taken their toll on the Bombers. Happy that the Saints get to celebrate being rubbish for 145 of their 150 years.

At the Saints Disco in Linton St?

Loving the collar on the jumpers. I really hope they got Molly a seat near the disabled toilets tonight. Bless him.

Oh well. I guess in the end Carlton were slightly less diabolical than GWS.

In a nice touch GWS appear to have named the top deck of the outer wing stand after both their members, Martin and Angus. No sign of either of them in there though. At the outer end it looks like the penny has dropped though and they've started replacing seats with garden landscaping.

A Cumberland sausage. Nice. 😋

No clash guernsey for Richmond?

Tom will be our sub surely. Can play forward or back if required due to any in play injury.

Happy about that. Brisbane back with the pack now. Perplexing how we lost to them.

Lobb has all the presence of a wilted lettuce leaf.

It would make sense to have a different club song but I couldn’t care less about the colours or their nickname. That’s what away / clash guernseys are for. There must be at least a dozen teams in the English football pyramid that wear black & white vertical stripes and call themselves The Magpies but none throw their toys out about it like Eddie Everywhere.

Yeah, nah.

And can he belt out a tune like a welshman.

I think less is often more when it comes to commemorative guernseys and this one works well.

Shouldn’t this thread be called If Melbourne Tanked Again? At the end of the day, with a draft and salary cap in place it’s not as if you can just go out and buy up the best talent. If this leaves bottoming out in the short term as the best alternative then so be it. As long as a club doesn’t go crying to the AFL for priority draft picks after gutting their list then fine.

Where's the Weid? Has he been dropped already?

I wonder if the Hawthorn board will hold their nerve with Sam Mitchell if they keep getting pummelled like this.

If Hawthorn only want to recruit players that will be part of their next premiership then they should be scouting prenatal clinics.

I guess there can't be a deliberate out of bounds free kick paid until the ball has actually gone out of bounds? The time clock on the live feed showed 00:00 well before the ball went over the boundary line but the siren didn't sound until after. Should've been paid as a deliberate out of bounds against Brayshaw with a minute and a half left on the clock. Freo should have tried the Lever to Gawn dink kick to Darcy with fifty seconds left instead of kicking to a pack at the top of the square. Stupid decision to burn precious seconds by taking a short kick on the outer side with just thirteen seconds left. Kudos to the Roos for not conceding even a point in that last thirty seconds but so many bad decisions from both sides in that last couple of minutes.

Probably on a kneed to know basis for now.

He also converted a van with his brother and started a mobile food truck business called The Bearded Jaffle. Knocks them out for $14 each.

I think he actually lives in Malvern now GtG. Still owns the pad in Blairgowrie though as a friend of mine lives on the same street.
