And I am unbeaten in Solitaire.

Dees and Casey unbeaten so far.

Agree with every point. Oliver applies body pressure at every stoppage and I don’t think that helps him with the umpires. IMO he should leave the contact alone and just move forward to the ball, making it easier to spot holding infringements against him. Than again who am I to tell Oliver how to play footy. PS: He has been my favourite Demon since he was drafted.

I must say that I find it strange that people go to a game and don't cheer their team, but just continually knock players from the other side. How is that a good day at the footy?

Agee Bitter, but nevertheless I was feeling uncomfortable. Maybe it had something to do with being surrounded by drunken Hawks fans.

I “hate” Putin, that is hate, not rating footballers is not “hate”. Anyone who says they hate footballers is not thinking properly.

A 4.30pm start and a third of the team out. This will be an interesting game.

I think " hate" is too strong a word.

Those are ridiculous odds.

So atm more than a third of the flag team out. Wow, a win tomorrow would be special.

RIP Ray Manley. Former football manager of the Dees has passed away. A really good Demon and a nice guy. Sincere condolences to family and friends.

Yes that should be discouraged. I agree it is a dangerous practice. PS. Excuse the levity, but we have enough heads up butts in the AFL already.

Taj went off injured late in the game with a head knock and it wasn't his best game.

Yes it's important, but these days the free is usually paid against the player doing what Dunkley did. This is done to protect against the serious risk of major leg damage to the player running in.

And flying Shane and Deanne and Taj's siblings, over to watch Taj's first game with us will complete the healing.

Don't think so. I think he will stay on hbf as a distributor. IMO it suits his style of play and is most beneficial for us. More chance of Hunt playing on a wing IMO.

Looks like it just got better. Available this week.

Plenty on here didn't 18 months ago. Same with JJ.

He needs a block of games to get his confidence up and not feel like he will be dropped if he spills the next mark. Players play with a bit more freedom and instinct when they feel they are part of the side. He has the attributes and I think he is one breakout game away from being an automatic selection and playing good consistent football.

Absolutely!

Yes we are and we simply had a bad night converting opportunities. As you said, a few more goals instead of points and it is a thrashing.

Mabior Chol as his mentor probably helped.

The great Guru Bob.

Yes Balta, Reiwoldt and Lynch agree.

Yes shown over and over on fox footy. Try AFL site under MRO this week and they will probably have some video. Pretty ordinary action by Cotchin and clearly deliberate.
