Bates Mate

Does his melkshakes bring all the boys to the yard

I grew up in the 80s and was the only kid in a demon's jumper at what was the Auskick (used to be called footy clinic). My son is in Auskick and demons easily top 4 in terms of kids wearing our jumpers

Today was one of the worst umpired games (boundary included( I've been to. 4 field umps is making things worse. Another brilliant Chris Scott idea I believe.

Bowey and Salem been down for a while. Love to see Hibbo back in. Judd Mcvee is now our premier small back/best ball user

Has alot of mates today

Salem worse

Not with this forward line

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

Hoskin Elliott getting carried off the ground in a losing 200th 😅😅

Ch7 commentary box quite flat, during that last qtr. Collingwood loosing games has them rattled

Howe as a forward , good luck

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

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

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.

I'm sure all the fact finding junkets to study how they do things in the NFL, EPL etc are well on track.

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

With a Carlton player diving across his leg attempting to spoil

One of the more amusing things I've seen on the footy field in a long time 😅😅

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

The Blues fans around me where calling holding the ball 😅. They definately got a few crowd assisted frees or non calls tonight

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

They wanted it more for longer, Goody's rotations and forward set up wasn't right. Sorry Grundy isn't in our best team

We finished that qtr the better team. Let's finish it off and never speak of this game again

Wouldn't call it quality but we have way more upside than them, we should get it done

Langdon and Salem have been horrible lately
