They could get De Goey on a bumper contract that includes being an exhibit at Dark Mofo.

Bring in a Hobart and Launceston side. Instant rivalry, ten games each round, neither likely to the called the Devils as they’re not representing a whole state. Yeah I know, funding etc etc….

Kane Cornes Top 5 Clickbait.

Comforting to know we have the two least accurate teams coming up next. Although it would help if Maysie can shut down Ben King this weekend.

I think it'll be nice to have a little green on an AFL guernsey again after Fremantle dropped the colour. Although the Dockers one would look really good if the middle vee on the front was mint green instead of white.

Are they Tasmanians or Taswegians?

Whatever happen I just want to make sure that we’re bullet proof when Tasmania’s drafting concessions kick in and in a position to dominate the competition for years to come.

Anything was going to be an improvement on the dog’s breakfast of a jumper we wore last year.

Demonland to Kane Cornes

I wouldn't trust Peter Bell to run a bath, let alone a football department.

Poor Darren Burgess. Working for that bunch of amateurs.

We would've kicked 22-7 and beaten Adelaide by 13 goals.

Adelaide hopeless going forward.

Unfortunately Adelaide are about 6 goals short of not getting overrun in the last quarter.

No sound from the ground. Only the commentators. Weird. I'm guessing they didn't ask James Sicily to promote Wonthaggi.

They're already organising a 10 year reunion for the guys that played in their first six games.

Back in the halcyon days of cheer squads in the 1980's I made a particular point of modelling our look on North Melbourne's. They were still playing at Arden Street in the first half of that decade and were sponsored by Budget, the rental car company owned by their chairman Bob Ansett. All of their flags had the Budget logo, white on blue or vice versa sans one corporate orange one in the centre of them all and they along with their floggers (at least twenty of them) looked magnificent. The white lettering on their run throughs, drawn and cut from cardboard stencils were millimetre perfect and centred perfectly on the blue crepe paper backing. They didn't have the benefit of drafting in professional artists to draw the designs on their finals run throughs like Hawthorn did but were still always perfect. Looking at last night's creation by their descendants made me feel sad. It was more akin to what the likes of Geelong, Footscray and Sydney used to always (and still do) serve up.

Talkback radio. Says it all.

Was half expecting to see the team doing sprints in Yarra Park for 30 minutes when I left after the game.

LOL. Swans choke again. Hilarious.

Sydney derby and virtually no sound when GWS kick a goal.

Dogga will be relieved he doesn't need to tell Peter Bell about the family holiday his mum has booked for September.

Bears sleepwalking their way through this one.

Brisbane look a bit listless today. Not good.

A clip just popped up in my youtube feed of that boofhead Eddie McGuire on Footy Classified saying the 715 million they appear to have scraped together will end up being 1.5 billion if they want a roofed 35,000+ seater stadium. Then there's the new club's training facility that needs to be built plus an upgrade to the ground in Launceston if they play any games up there.
