The cue can leave the rack after we lose to Port and the Dogs beat the Blues.

Welcome to the masochists club.

Agree.

I hope Port and Dogs put me out of my misery and win next week. That means I can go to the footy from then and hope to win, as it won't change our ladder position and affect our draft picks.

Can't he be both of ours. I nominated him at the start of the season as a kid I thought could kick on and then next thing he was injured.

Add Jamie Bennell.

My boy Evans gets 2 goals and 19 possies in limited time in his first game back.

Could this happen? GWS lose all remaining games and get GC pick 2 for an under 17 player plus some other part to the deal and then put the pressure on us for pick 3, for us to get JV second round, with us getting the second under 17 pick and maybe another part to the deal. GWS then get Whitfield, Grundy and Toumpas. You could write a book on the permutations.

What about my Dogs scenario? We win 3 and they lose all, some badly and we are above them.

We need Port and Dogs to win another game each if we are to keep our current drafting position. Port play depleted Bombers at home and news this morning is that Ryder has done a calf. Hopefully Port can win this one and then a loss in Darwin by us makes it a certainty as long as Dogs win one more or we don't win 4 more. I am sorry to talk like this but I just want us to have the best chance at a quick rebuild. Like WC and Bombers we could turn it around quickly next year with some new midfield talent.

He is a kid with a bit of ability and I would hate to lose him, before he has a real chance to show us whether he can become a regular senior player. His first game last year was pretty good and most would have been excited by him.

I am a fan of Evans and believe he is a good footballer. I hope he gets the chance next year to show us.

Apparently Michael Evans is on the way back and may have a run with Casey soon. I thought he could be a real chance and I hope we keep him next year, to give him that chance.

Their assistant recruiting officer was absent.

Sad but true.

Interesting to see the Blues supporters saying Wellingham got off lightly and the Pies fans saying he was crucified. When Sylvia got his jaw broken off the ball and the perpetrator, Josh Kennedy wasn't even cited, no one said a thing.

Won't happen. We are a chance to go up not down. We are 3 wins behind Port including percentage. 1 more win behind the dogs. If we lose to Port we are probably going to stay where we are. Awful to talk like this and I hope it is the last year that I do. However we need every draft position advantage possible to resurrect our sh-t midfield and small forward situation.

I hate to admit this publicly, but I have gone into drafting mode and want us to finish no higher on the ladder at all costs.

The way we dispose of the ball, you would think we are slipping on banana skins.

Enjoy. Was just looking at a top I bought and it came from Banana Republic.

Agree. Petterd and Morton are the curious ones, though Petterd doesn't look really fit and Morton may be getting some changes to his game sought. I know Couch has played some good footy, but the last game I saw him play against Sandy he was pathetic.

Think it has already been suggested.

No, it was aimed at some of the ridiculous ideas on here lately.

Wonder if anyone will suggest we draft someone from the Legends game tonight.

Add Tom Mcdonald.
