POSTGAME: QF vs Brisbane
Don't think that FOUR will be on the bench should we salute (comfortably) on Sept 25th. Interesting speculation for the future maybe!!! Wonderful rotations on this bench of older, champion, and very youthful players must also help in injury and freshness of this team. Congratulations Simon and your troops all of you we are indeed in good hands ( and brains as well). So significant that Maxy's last quarters in R 23 and QUAL Final were his best. He just looks as fresh as new with Jacko Tmac and Big Ben all sharing the round the ground ruck duties. Talk about sharing the load and being team first. !!! Let's just keep going as well as possible and keep our heads down and bum up producing an honest and team effort from all concerned.

FINALS: Week 01 2021 (NON MFC)
Fork Look at them again 1. He made the tackle lower by lowering himself slightly. This has happened 25,000 times in decisions of around the neck 2. Replay from different angle showed it was much stronger arm hit to head than at first shown. ( was still there before however) 3. Defender clearly had CW in hold with his arm early then as ball approached it was released to loosely around body. 4. Not there Remember I said that some were light but nevertheless the frees were there and were paid but just happened to be in front of goal. This season umpires are paying very soft neck and holding frees in general play so up forward is also on the agenda. Holding ball became almost redundant up to 2/3 rounds ago but is now back on the agenda. Can't see any thing more about it than this !!

FINALS: Week 01 2021 (NON MFC)
Only the push out of bounds was not there! Yes the others were on the light side but they were free kicks which just happened to be near the goals.

They the Club don't make those rules and couldn't I suspect just change a ticket OR a GFGuarantee for transfer. I have GF Guarantee and havent given up yet on attending if WA Govt makes decisions on Qld border arrangements.

VOTES: QF vs Brisbane
Lever not better than Tommy S ( who was good but not ahead of Lever ).
-
CHANGES: PF vs Geelong
We have again kept our opponent ( the highest scorers this season) to 60 , 5 points below our 2021 abbey age and you want to drop 2 defenders. Yes I would like Hibbo in and Hunty also but NOT at Boweys expense. He was understandardably a little nervous early on but finished the game snd last half brilliantly. Smith was ok but if he was on Charlie Cameron early he was very loose. Not sure who matched up all day! only one change Hunty or Hibbo for Smithy perhaps.

My 3 word player analysis V Lions
Sparrow also tackled brilliantly and played his part !

My 3 word player analysis V Lions
No it's not Tmac provides backup and needs minding Can also play down back if needed. Our ground ball issues in defence far outway any Tmac fiorm worries. Mark my words Tmac will be needed to combat Alair in GF. Other talls cdm then star as they did tonight. if it ain't broken don't fix it!

Grand Final Venue Watch
Yes but Jonesy should get in ahead of Vanders no matter what.

How young were you when Barass last raised the cup?
I was in year 11 at High School and after the game which the whole family listened to I raced down to my best friends place and celebrated briefly with them. They we're fanatical Demons and we followed. We were invited to come down and watch the TV replay if the whole game afterwards shot 6 pm. I was 16 but no drink allowed!! But very pleasant yome of course, We had tried to get tickets in the Hun but missed out. There were 4 of us Mim Dad and sister snd we went to about 5/6 matches at the G in 1964. We sat in the first rows of the Southern Stand and got there early to watc h the Reserves. In 1965 we got our first Membership Tickets each ( I am a 57 year continuous Member ) and moved interstate for work In 1993 and still got a seasons ticket each year. Started coming down more regularly in 2016 as Dad got older and our Rebuild3 was probing successful. Dad passed away In 2019 Sadly no MC G this year but still looking yo get to WA if possible if we make it. Will be very surprised if we don't win a flag OR TWO with this team starting this year!! Go Dees

Sam Weideman re-signs until 2023
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.

Trade Targets
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!

POSTGAME: Rd 23 vs Geelong
Would have much rather had HUDDO going crazy Thought 7 coverage was very average and underwhelming at best. .

CHANGES: QF vs Brisbane
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.
