Mate, you wouldn't know. Everybody that was anybody was wearing street clothes. Walked right past Bailey and Viney the first time without recognising them. Probably some Essendon guys there, you just wouldn't know

My 2 cents worth for the players I went to see. Gawn - Get the man in the side. Made Hudson looked third or fourth rate. Scully - Could have played with one arm and still dominate. Blease - Was good, did a few nice things. Wonna - In and out of the game. Not really that happy to be honest. Strauss - Very very happy. Strong and good with the ball (unlike Warnock or McDonald). Ended up marking Huson a few times in the backline when they did a switch. gave away 4 inches but dead set towelled him up, even overhead. McNamara - not VFL level Howe - Was good and definitely in the mix, not great entry into our forward line for half the game didn't help his cause.

IN: Scully, Trengove, Gawn (depending on tomorrow, can't wait!) Out: Morton, Bennell, Newton (depending on Gawn's game) Essendon have lots and lots of tall timber.

Essendon tried that, unsuccessfully, then sacked the coach.

It's not excuses, it's a FACT. This week, and the next couple are irrelevant for anything but identifying talent that's not up to it. There's no point getting upset, we have no cattle at the moment. Tomorrow's game has more relevance that tonights game.

3 of our best backline out 4 of our best midfield out Jurrah is clearly injured. What the hell did you expect?

That's what I said to the guys at work. I'm excited to take the boys down there to watch scully and have a kick on the ground!

No, that's Collingwood v Coburg

Do we have to pay to get in? Or will the Casey membership be ok?

hard to get a clearance playing on the half back flank

I don't understand why more clubs don't do a Carlton. There strip is what some would say "God Awful". But it doesn't clash with anything in the league, it's a clear contrast to anything else either at the game or on tv, and apparently they sell more of them that they can make at the moment. You can make money from something different. Why not have something less traditional? Lets make some money

Goddard had 24 handballs. Mostly on the half back line, in a panicked motion to a team mate because he had no idea what to do with the ball. He wasn't that good Riewoldt although had lots of the ball was well held by Frawley. I thought Gwilt had 5 good minutes in the whole game.

Although Riewoldt had 31 possessions, I thought that Watts was just as good. Both kicked 2 goals ( not counting the 50m penalty) and Riewoldt kicked two out of bounds and one on the full. Watts just demanded the ball it the corridor so many times it was good to see.

Watts was great. He uses the ball exceptionally well and creates a contest. I would start him and half forward and let him drift back and play through the centre. He's going to be a gun. He's huge and well and is going to knock somebody out Neitz style

I just asked what he got reported for. Geez. Maybe I was tending to child at the time, I just didn't see it. I did see the rest of his game which was appalling.

Disagree. Dangerfield has had lots of very soft games, where he's done nothing. I'm a Harvey hater too though. Had enough of North games.

Patrick Dangerfield says hello....

Can someone tell me what Dunn did. Was sitting top level Coventry end and can't remember anything bad he did

Bail gets that job, no question.

I don't know what I hate more, North Melbourne or Eat-your-hat stadium............... Or Brad (look at me, all I do is whinge) Scott I'd love to pump them by 10 goals and shut a few pie holes from a irrelevant club. Maybe I'm dreaming

I flew back in from NZ for the game. Good thing too! After last week's effort I was going to stay an extra day for Mother's Day but decided against it. Couldn't believe my luck!

Please, please please. No Rivers

I was expecting him to say "No, I don't want he *&%ing job", after being ribbed into giving an answer to a question that was barely given a thought. Or "you've got 4 weeks to sort it out or things must move on for next year without Bailey".

nearly as soft a segment as we play footy. What a waste of time waiting for that!

Garry pretty chippy right from the start. He's not happy about something!
