I was surprised and dismayed at the Aussie swimmers taunting the US team. I thought it was uncalled for. Yanks are often weird but unerringly polite. It was talking the talk.

I agree with the above and am happy that the team that has been performing well for the last few weeks is not changed too much. I also think that if it is dry we just may see a late change from Goody which is unusual for him, but is what Brad Scott often has pulled. Id like to see Tom Mac, Disco as well as JVR and Harry pitch in. Im hoping for the same intensity we have seen lately to be on show again. Hoping to see a cohesive forward line with Petty in there again.

The pies at the MCG are fresh. They taste better than from almost any other source. I look forward to having one and although they may be only warm occassionally they taste great. Yes I used to be a Pie-Boy.

I could see the rivalry alive between Clarko and Dimma. I didnt mind Harwick saying what he did. Better than getting learning in my view.

At least in AFL you dont need to work out which is left and right in Ties. Well, not until the Tassie team gets up.

Im a little disappointed in Jake as he was a local legend under-age. Id like to see him further up the ground before giving up hope. Quite possbly could blossom as Toby Bedford did at Giants. Hope it is for us but Max King wont come easy.

No Jake was #21 in that draft IIRC. Id do that deal myself If we finish mid-range. Not if we finish bottom 5. I also think it would be tempting to the Saints. And did you mean "Former"?

No. It probably wasnt worth mentioning. Just a bunch of mates that are all high paying members and devoted/desperate. They know/knew some of the FD and "always" know whats coming to the Saints. For 10 years they told me Rory Sloane was "Next Year" and then it was Amon "Next year". Not a good track record.

1st pick and Bowey. Saints now want Bowey.

The longer Melks is out the better he is, it seems. Starting to remind me of the whining when we believed Junior had lost too much pace and let him go. It was the right decision in hindsight, but the moaning was significant. I hope Melks can come back for a couple of games but if he can replicate any earlier highlights, I will be happy to be wrong.

Not sure where you get this SPC? Choko famously swept Princess Diana around the dance floor on her honeymoon tour of Australia. Well known as pretty good on his feet.

According to N Buckley it is more to do with the fact a player has the arm holding the ball free. Umpires have been told that if that arm is not held in the tackle, then the current 360 degree tackles arent "Holding the Ball". He also said that umpires may change interpretation this week.

Commentator sounds like Slug Jordan.

Rivers shows the desperation and pace we need in the centre. Im not sure about the Sparrow ATM. Doesnt always seem to go and is lacking pace.

When we lose these games that we should win, it is losing the 1st quarter, especially the 1st 3 goals of the match. We need to silence the hope in the crowd barracking by winning the 1st 10 minutes. Im a bit worried.

Really disappointing. No structure, little skills on display. Sestan good.

No one can take a mark. Verrall standing around not moving.

Other than the game against Essendon the media call that we dont bring in big crowds at the MCG is sure to get a run.

Fair result

This is a massive game.

I will be in Carltons Legends Lounge for tonights game. I recklessly agreed a while back. I may wear out my welcome early, who knows? Any other possible friendless souls going?

What finally did it?😁

Why do you say that? Just an opinion?

Kozzie the pickpocket!
