  1. Has alot of mates today
  2. Not with this forward line
  3. Well said. I'm over worrying about the permutations of games not involving my club. Anyone anywhere is the attitude I've got and know the club feel the same as we should. I don't fear any team at any venue
  4. Hoskin Elliott getting carried off the ground in a losing 200th 😅😅
  5. Ch7 commentary box quite flat, during that last qtr. Collingwood loosing games has them rattled
  6. Howe as a forward , good luck
  7. Laurie has a couple of strengths compared to Spargo. Pace and ability to rack up high disposals albeit at Casey. Can't say I've been that unless from what I've seen this year but will back in the match committee
  8. Tmac dosent have it in him to give any type of pressure once it hits the deck. His body is past that. Was cumbersome at best even in his best years. Had a great tank which helped him get space but always pretty average once it hits the deck
  9. He had some great moments and games but for mine one of the most overrated footballers in the past 20 years. Was great at hit outs and follow up clearances in his prime but mostly awful around the ground and a terrible mark for his size. The way the commentators used to go on about him probably skews my judgement, but it was unbearable at times.
  10. I'm sure all the fact finding junkets to study how they do things in the NFL, EPL etc are well on track.
  11. If Hawkeye at the tennis can pinpoint a tennis ball travelling 200km with in millimetres, surley the tech is available. What possible excuse is there not to have it at all the major AFL venues? Can't be $$$ surley
  12. With a Carlton player diving across his leg attempting to spoil
  13. One of the more amusing things I've seen on the footy field in a long time 😅😅
  14. Jordon, Grundy out . Hibberd , tmac in. Smith sub. Salem Lucky, won't ever get dropped but gees he's a shadow of himself the past month after a great patch of form
  15. The Blues fans around me where calling holding the ball 😅. They definately got a few crowd assisted frees or non calls tonight
  16. We need another tall, can't be a main marking target. I hope tmac gets through tomorrow if put him or brown back in. They know where to lead to and can at least create a contest
  17. They wanted it more for longer, Goody's rotations and forward set up wasn't right. Sorry Grundy isn't in our best team
  18. We finished that qtr the better team. Let's finish it off and never speak of this game again
  19. Wouldn't call it quality but we have way more upside than them, we should get it done
  20. Langdon and Salem have been horrible lately
  21. Lucky to be this close. Reset let's go
  22. Cheering against Aussie teams because of the media , ok then. I find it more enjoyable to cheer for my country than against it
  23. Sad news, had a great couple of seasons with the dees. Always remember Rex Hunt calling him " the hotel "
  24. Cats list management has been the best in the comp for 15 years
