I for one will miss the doorstop interviews at the Hird palace.

I am worried about banana smoothies and you mention Hird.

Had a banana smoothie at a new place in Malvern Road. Too thin and not enough yoghurt. Also not cold enough. What is going on in this world?

I think it says a bit about us, that we were the only team to lose to the Bombers in the last 11 games.

I need more than alcohol to rid the taste of sunday.

Who is that avatar of?

What, you are not coming to Etihad to see us get smashed again, but would rather prefer to get smashed yourself at home?

Funny you should mention that. I was only watching to see if we could recruit any guys who could really penetrate with their disposal, I have found plenty. Unfortunately, accuracy is still a problem, as there has still been a lot of behinds scored.

That will never happen.

Got some Medallion tickets this week. It's always fun seeing your team smashed at Etihad, from the better seats. Can't remember the last time we won a home and away game there. BTW the Dogs are the team that gets the absolute best umpire treatment whenever we play them. Expecting more of the same.

No free lunch, no hype, just confirmation that most were sick.

A lot of our players were sick, so it was a great effort to outscore the Roos for 3 quarters.

Wonder what the boys will serve up today. We have been the Kangaroos [censored] for too long now.

No its because one is on our list and we don't have to go and spend big to get him. Yes Watts has infuriated me at times with his lack of effort at the hard contest, but he is in the best 3 skilled players on our list and is still developing physically. Would you swap Watts for Yarran, I wouldn't. I think Watts is a better player than Yarran. Would I take Yarran cheaply like Garlett, yes I would.

Tigers' bubble burst quickly.

I think I know what is wrong with Yarran, he is dumb and lazy. Yes he can do the brilliant, but then he does not do the basics, like defend and man up.

I thought earlier this year that we would have only a small number of changes to the list, I now think we will have a similar amount to the last two end of seasons. Possibly gone could be McKenzie, Bail, Terlich, Michie, Riley, Jamar, Cross if he retires, Howe if traded and maybe even Toumpas and Grimes. That is ten changes if all happen. i would keep Fitzy and Spencer as backup to Gawn, even though they are often spoken about on here. I still have hopes for Fitzy to become a regular. I can see us taking less draftees and more experienced players this year as well. We have a fair bit of youth on the list ATM. Maybe Lovett with the last pick and one other player earlier. If we are interested, I think Zak Jones would be gettable, however if we get Prestia and with Viney, ANB and Nathan Jones, his type may be superfluous to our needs.

Stop being modest.

That would be my thought.

Fox Footy has been inundated by irate Demons, angry about the replays featuring the Ed all Pies commentary.

Another wasted afternoon is upon us.

As Barrett predicted he has won the Brownlow.

Sydney fans threatening to egg anyone who boos Goodes. Gil when asked to comment didn't can the idea. That is our leader.

Have hear about nutella filled donuts. Could they replace the banana split?

Just typical: NICK Riewoldt has finally succumbed to his calf issues, with the St Kilda skipper to miss Sunday’s clash against Port Adelaide. Riewoldt, as well as Jack Lonie (rested) and Sam Gilbert (groin), was ruled out on Thursday.
