Severe sedation is essential as well as isolation.

All the more reason yo be patient!!!

Agree about Smithy!

Laurie has had 2 injury absences this year and I don't think looking at him he has a natural fitness base say like Bowey. Needsa good preseason and will be on his way. There are no guarantees and I haven't seen him play live and can't remember him in the couple of TV games of Casey. Rosman Will also be a big improver I Believe and we must keep Declase and Turner as great potential.

I have been pleased that Holmes has looked completely average in his games so far for Cats seeing that they out bid fir him at the Draft. No real reason to worry now but of course time can be important with young draftees!

Would have much rather had HUDDO going crazy Thought 7 coverage was very average and underwhelming at best. .

Talk about destabilising a Club and list!! Forget it snd let us build strength the way we have which is going to last!

Can't drop a four game in a row good player on a ridiculous hunch !!! Hunt is not ready yet and we don't need to risk him as if we win he has 2 full weeks or at least one to get fit.

Fritta did score 7 SEVEN goals a week ago !!!! Or have u forgotten?

The Club will have to organise a Function/Family/Sunday after the Day style function for 20/25,000 fans when Covid allows to celebrate with the players. Maybe a Premiership Dinner as well for the upper market experience etc. to keep the pot boiling!!!

Surely not rough considering the TIME and situation of the game! Umps have been lacking penalising the new mark rule and players holding the ball up and not giving it back quickly enough. I sobered if there was a report ( comment) on Jakes face whack of Selwood (I think it was) Not strong enough for fine but was his face after all. As an old science teacher if mine would have said "A love pat".

Thanks DC still the same Port is Port eh?

Any updates DrD? Ruck ? Forward? Midfielder?

Why not ? He after all played for Port not sure if it was only SANFL or not.

On goals can anyone publish a list of our goal scorers this season please.Dogga has started to get his share but we need Tmac to hit the board again.

ANB does always speak well Team first Always first to congratulate a teammate when a goal is kicked without exception. He has not always been a fan favourite ANB but the newNibbler is a bottler and excels at many of the 1% ers plus his energy levels are enormous. As one or two posters on DL have sad all season he is not getting dropped !!!

I'll informed comment The Top 8 this year is completely unknown when the fixture comes out and was not decided till yesterday. Unless the same Top8 occurred the following year any comparison is not able to be judged as "fair". Just think about it!!!

Haven't jumped and screamed as much in my lounge room ( in Brisbane) since the 2000 Qualifying comeback win vs Carlton Or the Froggy Crompton goal in 64 when I was a teenager!!! This after just returning home from experiencing the amazing emotions of the Lions fans at the Gabba. Now we play them and it's the Travis Johnstone/ Beamer/ Stef Martin Cup!! Can't wait.

Maybe a callow youth has become a man just in time !! If Viney doesn't get ( tackle) you Swallow ( I mean SPARROW) will!!

He needs to ask Lord Nev what to do in those ridiculous circumstances !!!

Yes We do not realise how good Clarry Trac and Maxy are and the last 35 minutes at the Cattery could well have put one hand on the 2021 premiership Cup. Redemption day for 2018 Round1 Maxy missing the after siren shot and in the later season game at the Cattery coughing up a 5 goal lead in the last quarter for Tom Hawkins and Zac Tuohy to mastermind that after siren victory. Eight points coughed up 3 seasons ago and double chance shows why we are such an improved team amazing what 3 years adds up your mindset with good assistant coaches and matured and confident players. Yes Goody has evolved also but maybe a little Tmac cameo down back in the second quarter would not have hurt on Big Tomcat! Just use all the players and their experience at your disposal. PS Oscar moved too late that day and Maysie last might could have been tried. Not that it means anything but most importantly reaffirmation of self belief and the Minor Premiership for our silverware barren Club for nearly 60 years is a little entree to the spoils that await us IF we can play any where near our best for nearly all the next 3 or 4 games. Three more wins and no Port Final in Adelaide ( not scared any way) for us unless the Grand Final is there. Let's hope the Pies smash Bombers and Freo gets home by under a goal to make a dream Final 8!!! Go Dees and what a roller coaster for Jake Bowey with a mere 4 ( magnificent) games under his belt. Talk about timing a run and any hope Jonesy as a med sub?? Please instead of Vanders (but not JJ. )

Last night I reckon Wines name was only mentioned about 10 times by the commentators and when he kicked that goal he was suddenly BOG!!! Thought Boak was easily the best on ground for impact and 4 quarter value plus his clutch goals. Rozee all class and agsin goals and as usual Gray was pivotal and a prime mover in the fight back Obviously need to watch game again for Wines role. Just shows how if you butcher the ball in front of goals and handballs are just off slightly you need to have your best mids on top supplying that ball downfield and converting as well. BTW still good to get Dogs out of Top4 as I have rated them ( until last night) as our main opponent but now reckon Port are potentially being given a dream run at home and may even play the Final there although not first choice at this moment. Lets just win tonight Dees!!

Not sure he is a bull insider has skill fir outside play I reckon.

Yes agree Norm the topics filling in the posts have got less relevant as August has evolved. What only matters in the next 5 weeks is our performance ON and OFF the field. Not trades Not other Clubs issues Not Demonstones weird postings Not failings of the past or irrelevant memories. Not even Covid ramblings. Lets just support our team who are ONLY FOUR WINS aWAY from the Holy Grail. Then post anything you choose if we win that 13th flag !!!

Want an outside mid Dunkley or Treloar or Smith !!!
