  1. I have us winning only 2 from the last 4. I think we will lose to the Giants, beat the Bears and drop one of St Kilda or Collingwood. Last weeks loss was catastrophic...but that's just based on my predictions. Beat the Giants and we will lock in our spot.
  2. Cannot believe he doesn't get spoken about in higher regard by the "experts". Each week his stats, especially contested possessions seem to just get passed over..
  3. Mate I'm concerned that loss cost us a spot in the finals full stop.
  4. It's changed a lot since I bought my first house in Preston in 2002 - hipster central nowadays and for the most part a good area....but I'm sure you're referring to an earlier time. Best decision I ever made buying my first place there.
  5. I lived in Preston/Reservoir for 12 years...it's more Collingwood heartland.
  6. Don't bother trying to get anything from the Woolworths Deli in Niddrie on Grand Final Day wearing a Melbourne jumper if we are playing Essendon. Thats what I tried doing in 2000 and the chick behind the counter refused to serve me.
  7. Being the end of the game, right or wrong, they wouldn't have even noticed him. They would have been too busy packing up their gear at the final siren to get their shite inside the rooms and off the ground.
  8. The "football world" can go and get [censored]. This bloke is the exact type of bloke you want standing next to you if you were in the trenches.
  9. Slobbo carrying on on 360 about how it's a travesty that Buddy's goal isn't goal of the week, let alone the year. "anyone can get into a torp" apparently...
  10. I agree...I just don't think we can make it.
  11. The fact that there was approx 3 cameras at the ground will prevent it from happening.
  12. You will never win a game of football relying on a backwards running Garlett and Melksham, going into your forward line. It's just wishful thinking. We had zero forward line presence tonight.
  13. It had nothing to do with Darwin, we would have still lost at the G against this Adelaide side. People seem to still forget we are in recovery mode re finances.
  14. Vince is cooked but I disagree about Lewis (tonight)...I've been one of his biggest critics but thought he was good tonight.
  15. I don't think we will play finals. Of course happy to be proven wrong...
  16. Why the [censored] are we so dumb at marking contests?? I put it down to to Goodwin telling players to back themselves and fly for the ball. But it's dumb. We have to be smarter. ALL year we have gone up to spoil in numbers which then leaves no one on the ground!! We are then left so vulnerable on the overlap and the opposition make us pay! This happens time after time!
  17. Frost again flying, missing the punch and going to ground... so costly.
  18. Terrific to see JKH just trotting along once the ball was out of his reach. A real killer instinct that one.
