Just testing. You, Pineapple and Megatron pass with hons.

Our back six is the best we've fielded all year ......... as good as any in the ALF, on paper.! BUT gee they are under-done in terms of match fitness. Hope they can stay together and build a real sense of cohesion in the back part of the season, and more particularly into 2020.

Agree Dub. With Frosty it's always WYSIWYG, but yesterday the good was outstanding, I reckon. I can mostly forgive his sometimes wonky disposal and brain fade when he bites off more than he can chew, but not so the occasional off the ball free like the one in the last quarter.

Richo would be a good get, especially in a senior / mentoring role around Goody ....... but tbh, I'm more concerned about losing Jade Rawlings in this year's coaching merry-go-round, than I am about picking up Richo who is still contracted.

The turn-around in form from a handful who have been down was good. Lockhart and May were very good. The desperation was good. Flying the flag for team-mates was very good. Hope next week is good!

If ever a talk can inspire them, that will do it! ............ now do it it for Neale boys!

Very disappointing. We have nobody to blame but ourselves, but the maggots made sure that we had no chance of getting up in the last.

What's my name?

Weid anyone?

I'm an honest old fart, but daylight robbery has just got some appeal.

Poor form by May. To me it seems that he is putting himself above the Club, and that's exactly the sort of culture / behavior I don't want to see at my Club..

An ugly win, but we banked the 4 points, and to make it sweeter, it was against a team that has had the wood on us for most of the last decade. In the end, our guts and detetmination, combined with a positive mind-set, overcame (frequently) deplorable ball skills and decision making. Very happy to take it and move on.

I can't see much point in 'revolving doors' selections, but we can't ignore the fact that the cupboad is very bare right now. A 'wing and a prayer' is about all we have!

It's time for TMac and Weid to play themselves back into form against a not great St Kilda tall defence. Add in Preuss and occasionally Max, and they'll find the match ups difficult. We've just gotta get it done! Another loss will be a massive kick in the guts for our confidence.

A bye next week ..... that's downright amateurish. How are AFL players supposed to build continuity, gain match fitness, work into form? Jeffry needs (maybe) one more run to be AFL ready, and instead he's watching on. Grrrr!
