BDA

i think the main reasons are: loading injuries playing better teams

Not overly confident about this one Both teams form is poor and have significant outs Lions record at the G is pretty bad so i think that swings it in our favor Dees by 15 points

Terrible news. She was a big improver last year.

If we win on Thursday....we'll be 11-3 and 1 game closer to securing finals

He’s torn between the dees and moving home. Big decision but I reckon he’ll stay

I suppose we should be thankful they included Clarry And i don’t care what metrics are used. Gawn is better than Witts (he is very good) and English

"At 20, industry experts suggest a fair deal at Melbourne would be around $800,000 per season and be in line with deals for young stars Sam Walsh, Ben King and Max King." $800,000 is overs i reckon And I'd take either of the King boys instead of him

He's down on form like the rest of the team May marshals the defence so his absence has had a direct impact on Rick's form and confidence. May's return will steady the ship Lever was AA last year. He'll come good

I would never have though Levi Casboult and Mabiol Chol would be such good pick-ups for the Suns. Either of them would have been a big help for us this year.

Helps explain the cats terrible post bye record. Lucky they were playing the eagles yesterday or they might have lost again. Does the training have to occur mid year. Given we had north and eagles week 9 and 10 would have been a perfect time to load. Although maybe we were because we were sluggish in both those games.

Must be a very desparate club if Jordan de goey is the one player you would take. Must be north

Your MFCSS is out of control at the moment BBP. We have an excellent recruitment team. JT is best in the business. We don't win a premiership without his genius selections Dogga will most likely re-sign. But even if he doesn't he was still worth it imv. And we'll get plenty in return in any trade

Hogan sharp tonight

I reckon 15 wins will be enough to secure Top 4. And I'm not that worried about playing an inter-state final if we have to

I don't think i've ever barracked for the Eagles before. I feel yucky

Eagles having a dip so far. i hope they can keep this up

Todd Marshall is developing into a very good KPF Decent game this

I think dogga will be a great player. I want him to commit to us. But his non-commitment is really starting to become an issue for me. We're the premiers. We can offer everything he needs to succeed and develop at the MFC. We should not need to be convincing him to stay. He is obviously torn and i get it. The pull of home can be very powerful. But i'm not sure having a semi-committed player yearning for home is worth the hassle. We've been down this path with Jesse and we all know how that turned out If he doesn't sign his contract soon then we may have to accept the unpalatable truth and cut our losses. Otherwise it'll the same rumors every trade period. Too destabilising.

A nothing story So what exactly has De Goey done wrong here? He's entitled to a holiday and he's entitled to dance badly. Hasn't broken any club rules. The HUN just trying to create a story out of nothing much What he has shown is a lack of professionalism. But we already knew that

Essendon must have done some loading at half time

rubbish free kick to Higgins

Butler butchered that chance royally

St Kilda look sluggish. Must be loading

Did he assault anyone this time?

Tiges wobbling. An interesting final quarter coming up
