It was a hard shot for Fox, he was at least 5 metres out with no one in front of him.

Will be more so after the win, after being killed in general play.

Umpire 15 really helping the Cats.

Have you made it to the Alice yet Uncle?

You can’t miss that shot, you just can’t. Not a wet night, 8 metres out straight in front. An AFL player just can’t miss that shot.

Blicavs scragging non stop. Just hit Swan in head after two arm grab with ball 15 metres away.

Well it has confused me. With sub after his name, I assumed he was sub. I think therefore that Melk will be sub.

Again we play Spargo as sub, following a poor performance at Casey. He is a one position player who failed to have any impact when sub against Cats. Is cool under pressure and can set up a goal, but I thought the sub should be a versatile player who can have an immediate impact. I don’t Charlie as that but obviously FD do. I would have given Melk his 99th game for the Dees as sub, following his 4 goals for Casey last week.

Well some real optimism. Hope you are right.

I cannot see that happening.

Players agree to go to wherever drafted for the initial period, and that is to make the draft workable. Then a few years later on, the player commits to a club, buys a house, puts his kids in school or whatever and can then be told a little while later, you are playing across the other side of the country, without friends and family support and lump it or leave it. There are other people involved in these deals, not just the player, but often family as well. Won't happen.

Has it stopped raining in the Alice yet?

I am not sure it will. Seems rather dishonest. A player signs to play somewhere and is then shipped off without his consent. Open to manipulation too, as deals could be done to force a player to a club, by dealing with a club to sign him and then ship him out. Can’t see the player’s agreeing to this change.

Get the bucket ready.

Presume someone raised that we have players coming in the next three years. MFCSS!

Now you know one of the reasons I started it, when I was but a mere lad, standing on Uncle Bitter's empty wine casks, to make myself look taller.

He was too busy.

Both men lived their lives around football.

I just threw up in my mouth.

Rumoured mud heap is not where you play BBB, coming off a knee injury.

The happy, Choco getting AFL Hall of Fame recognition. Congratulations and well deserved. The sad, the passing of Matt Rendell, a nice guy that I met a few times, a very good footballer, coach and recruiter. Sincere condolences to family and friends. RIP Bundy.

He has been playing well for a few weeks and if we want him and he wants us and especially good mate Kozzie, he will be a Demon.

He actually preferred the usual nickname.

There was a Solicitor I knew called Richard Pulling.

Still in Melbourne and my post stands.
