Bigfoot

I assume the reason stated above by dazzle is the reason that he was considering the move back to Victoria to begin with. Without wanting to sound insensitive but perhaps the urgency around the situation is no longer required. Thoughts and prayers to Luke, his girlfriend and her family. Rest in Peace.

I was petrified that our young inexperienced defence sans May and Lever would get slaughtered by the Dogs who have piled on some big scores and thrashed a lot of team but I thought that our guys held up pretty well. Was impressed with a couple of things that Adams did and hope that he gets to play in the last few games but I fear he will be the one to go out for May this week. At least he will get a taste of finals at Casey. Howes too did a few nice things in the limited game time that he had and that goal was a ripper under pressure from a decent way out.

I have always appreciated his commentary since leaving the Pies.

This is Chaplin's audition for any future coaching gig. Please don't be a Goody clone. Try something new and different and out of the box. I would love to put a dent in some of these final's fancies hopes.

Thank you Simon for the memories and all the time and effort you put in. I think it was time and the right decision was made to move on. Now let's hope the right decision is made for a replacement.

This close to finals with finals on the line there will be no suspensions that impact teams in contention.

Longmire does not sound like he wants to coach next year. My money is on Carlton knowing this and wanting him and are willing to wait hence why they are keeping Voss. Why pay him out when you know you can get your man at the end of next year. I have no inside info. Just a hunch.

The colliwobbles are back BABY!!!

Jake Melksham is having an incredible purple patch. He has kicked 14 goals 8 in the past 3 weeks. I read that the last time a Demon kicked 4 goals or more in 3 consecutive games was David Neitz in 2006. He's our most inform consistent forward at the moment. Give Jake another season!!!

How immense was Max Gawn in those last five minutes. Those couple of contest marks were crucial to stopping any comeback by the Lions. We are so blessed to have such a courageous leader.

Why can’t we win these close games against GWS. In our last 3 games against the Giants we’ve lost by 3 points, 2 points and 2 points. In fact why can’t we hold on in these close matches. It’s infuriating.

After the Trade Week from Hell when I thought we would lose our beloved Trac it was so great to see him burst through the first center clearance. 33 Possessions and 9 Clearances. Welcome Back Trac.

Great to have you boys back for another stellar season of podcasting. We had a plethora of notable absentees for the match against North who will no doubt, if fit, be available for the Freo practice match and Round 1. They are as follows: Caleb Windsor, Jack Viney, Steven May, Christian Salem, Christian Petracca, Charlie Spargo, Max Gawn, Ed Langdon & Bayley Fritsch. Other notable absentees are Judd McVee (hamstring), Koltyn Tholstrup (bone stress), Jake Melksham (hamstring) who all will miss the early parts of the season. Andy Moniz-Wakefield (ACL) & Shane McAdam (Achilles) are out for the season and we're waiting on news about Marty Hore's hand surgery prognosis but it is likely that he will miss a number of weeks. Of the players that were absent for the Kangaroos Match SIM and are fit and are likely to play Round 1 who will they be replacing in the side that took on North?

Waiting for the next Doomsday DL Thread ... "Will Trac Be Able to Find Pre-Injury Form?"
