one of the options discussed a week or so ago is that the penalty includes at least one week against the team whom the incident happened against. i.e 6 weeks and a week when the Derby rolls around again.

Yes. If only to stop square-ups that both teams will fight about. If the player is sent off, there is no one to remonstrate with.

Pretty sure Robbo fixed his goal kicking.

There are too many who detest the Bugg. I wouldnt be surprised if he is close to a dramatic "in" as he finds the footy and although isnt pretty and misses many shots, he bobs up in games. He isnt as flashy as Kent but Id have him, if it came down those two.

Im the opposite. When we play Sundays there is not much to read about in the papers as opposed to playing Friday.

Because Anzac Day next year is on a Thursday, we then play Wednesday night. This would mean the week before we will probably play on the Thursday or Friday night. And hopefully the Friday night night following Anzac Day against Essendon.

I would like to see Tim Smith come in for Jesse if he needs a weeks rest. If AVB is given the nod instead, this could allow Clarrie to go forward longer. Id rather Jesse stay but he probably needs a freshener.

youre complaining that you could be included in so mild a rebuke as a Joker? OK

Some fwits should not be allowed to create threads.

if Eddie didnt hit the post or even with those [censored] over there, even if he shaved it there would have been a free kick shortly after in the goal square to the crows.

Im finding it difficult to build up to my normal pre-match excitement and jitters. Last week really caned me. Still hollow and negative. Good on you demons supporters making the trip. Go Dees.

yAY,

Are we in front?

Anyone know if Tim Smith is available? I see he was in Rehab.

Freo 12-1 for 1-39, on sportsbet, weird.

I heard a scary story about Lethal after the 1st game he coached when Pies were soundly thrashed by Bombers. After the 1st training he walked into the showers and slammed a still showering new player into the wall and in front of everyone slapped bullied and harrased the player into tears. Telling him to hit back. Player was a smallish rover, In front of all the players who were shocked. It was witnessed by a player who is a mate of my brothers and thats the story I heard. The player never really got a game Im told. Pies began to not like the losing feeling. I wouldnt have the "heart" to say those things to Leigh Matthews.

If there was a late change, at what time would it be released? 90 minutes before game?

I didnt see the last quarter so again i miss seeing Sam Weiderman do anything much. I go walk the dogs and found he is named in the best. Amazing. I see him in contests, I see him winning absolutely none. I see Tom Bugg and I see an AFL player who has had the yips in the ones. I am now biased. Im Opposite George to many experts.

Fantastic news! First picked for me.

Seems to be common thread going on. Spent all morning ferrying my 94 yr old mother around, which finished at the Mountain View for a 90 yr old lunch at 12:30. Saw a sign that there are Vegan nights on now.... When I recollect the Mountain View from the early eighties, this is a big sign o'the times. From Bloodhouse to Vegout. Just got home, to watch Foxtel, Foxtel down! Off to the Elsternwick. sheesh

This is the biggest story for me. I was a doubter. I thought those that said he would return good as ever were just blue sky dreamers. Mea Culpa!
