Redleg

IMO it's only a matter of time before we see Jeffo, AMW and Verrall in the seniors.

He is untradable atm with his contract.

We have a player who is the best contested ball player I have ever seen and who was instrumental in our 21 flag. He is my favourite player. He is struggling atm. He has had no pre season, injuries, personal issues and plenty of mates in the team also in poor form. Yes his disposal is not great atm and until last night was still at least getting a lot of the ball. He had a hard tag yesterday, where he was constantly infringed and once even thrown to the ground without the ball again without a free and yet is constantly being harshly treated by the umpires. He handballs away in a split second and is then pinged for throwing or htb. The club has not come out and had a go in the media about this to support him, which most other clubs do and would. That could help. It is disappointing. He will come good again, but it might not be his best until next year, when he can have a proper pre season and get over his injuries and other issues. We need to support him and get off his back. He has given us plenty and maybe we should give a bit back. Go Clarry and Go Dees.

And he has a son who might be taken by us this year.

Great post and all our best Toni. Hope the win brought you a little joy.

For those not feeling the happiness of a win, it is always great to have a win, even when it is not the sort of win you would prefer. WE WON and our season is still alive, maybe not in great health, but alive nevertheless and that is good.

The AFL appears to have admitted on their site the Windsor 50 was an error and will this week admit this one too. They will not admit the Sheezel htb, the Kozzie put down well after he kicked it, the Petty non mark, the Tom Mac front on spoil, the Clarry drag down and scrags at the stoppages, several other non htb calls to us and several soft ones to them, giving them half their score from frees or 50's. At one stage it was 9-4 frees to them in the last quarter and 3 of our 4 were marks we had already taken and an OOB on the full, essentially 9-1. My barometer for umpiring is Mrs. Redleg, who unlike me hardly even notices them and she was screaming out "they are blatantly cheating and trying to get the Roos a win because of last week." On a positive note, to have won with nothing from Fritta,and Clarry and playing against 4 extra players was good. BTW are our coaching panel watching the game, where was the extra defender in the last few minutes?

Brad Johnson was going beserk about it after the game on Fox. Reiwoldt and Eddy agreed.

And we will say nothing at least publically as usual.

AFL site saying it was an umpiring mistake.

Butters a great player, but a hot head. Just kidney punched Berry for what should be consecutive game reports.

She might go home and have some more kids.

Exactly what I was going to post.

They have Higgins and also Butler.

It's a long way from the G on a saturday night, to Casey by the next afternoon.

No wonder you are one of the wisest and leading posters on this thread.

Do you think he could get one goal in about 5 games? Then no problem.

Great report. Hopefully no one will find fault with it.

Did that affect the jam crop?

What has the Northern Territory got to do with this?

See how educational this thread is.

Just needed the encouragement.

Bret, Bart or Beau?

That's because we operate under a banner of truth and tackling the hard stuff others won't.

Well your request is my task. Why do some people call it jam, while others call it conserve, not to mention the Yanks calling it jelly?
