How come its not on AFL site?

I thought Joel dropped one easy mark which cost us a goal, but was otherwise very good. He is improving and just needs a run of games. He gives us another option either back or forward. He certainly deserves a good run at it, after so many injuries.

Clarry Gus Bowey Langdon May/Max Weid and I thought Smith was good.

Has the maid cracked the wine cask yet? She must be guzzling by now.

Well 11 frees to Bombers to our 2 since half way through the first quarter doesn’t help. Bad kicking for goal also killing us.

That is the point exactly.

Hopefully he plays well in a Dees win and you can attack the wine cask with gusto. Maybe if you are feeling generous you could even let the maid have a tipple.

You can now bet on the Dog's opponent next game getting a decent run.

Big night for Weid.

It emanates from the final against the Bombers last year, where he blatantly acted and got 5 frees, most of which weren't there. It was highlighted in the media at the time. He scored a number of goals from those frees. But yes he is a good player and I would be happy to have him in red and blue.

That he was ordinary and if not for 4 soft frees, he has had a 3 possession game.

4 were frees.

What about Max's sore head, from all the blows landed on the back of his head in marking contests, typically without any free being paid to him.

They are talking about later in the season maybe. No spot atm and not ready either.

I see him signing a deal with us taking him to FA.

Who?

My boy Deakyn Smith played a very good game on sunday for Casey. Hope he can keep on improving and push for the senior team. Van Rooyen looks good and Howes could be another on the horizon. I actually liked Baker kicking out, as he ran out and kicked long nearly to the middle of the ground each time. Maybe in the seniors Bowey can do the same, instead of the same old kick to the pack by May about to the defensive 50m line. It would allow more options from the kick out and even allow May to be a target for the occasional kickout, changing up our predictability in this area.

Good times on the lily pad.

Who?

Ah Jacko. Our 3rd and heading to be our best.

Quiet times on DL these days. Has Jacko signed an extension yet?

I am very keen to see how Deakyn Smith develops, as I can see him as a Salem type off half back. Of course he needs improvement and consistency, but I think he is a chance for an unheralded player.

Hawks have adopted a fast, spread game, that older slow teams struggle with. They also have an in form couple of key forwards and a couple of small forward goal sneaks and that helps.

I just can’t believe how this guy has turned his game around. A couple of years ago he was my number 1 delist and now he is a fixture in our team and deservedly so. Well done ANB.

Sensational Bowey first half.
