  1. 9 points down , feels like we'll loose by 60
  2. Tmac and thommo being the last line defenders it's a worry on the counter attack
  3. Dumb entry surely you should recognise 2-1 with the one being Viney is a poor option
  4. Can't fault the effort but Our skills and composure are deplorable
  5. We were top 4 on the ladder and heading into a finals campaign in jvrs first year. We are not making finals this year. So a game or two in the seniors will do him good

    I 100% agree. Our assistant coaching group is stale. Stafford and Chapman have been great but been there a long time and obviously Goody guys but we need new voices in the place. Mcwalter was forced due to Yze leaving and obviously the midfield has dropped off bigtime for various reasons, he gets another chance with hopefully a fit midfield with some new faces in the centre square on a consistent basis .
  7. Boomers v Greece just starting if you you don't want to watch a qtr of junk time
  8. Lever is so bad one on one
  9. Poor Tmac is giving his all.
  10. That kind of deal at that money is reminiscent to Rory Lobb , Kurt Tippet type deals to me . Wouldn't tryst waterman to play at this level for many of those years

    You actually do they are the ones that are soft and gooey inside and melt in the slightest amount of heat

    That's a sweet result. I'm in big trouble with the missus who is a bombers supporter but totally worth it

    3 goals 3 frees, go bombers. Last one would've been a goal anyway but gees caddy Lloyd like diving

    Weak team can't handle any physicality. They are just a nice skillful lot of players

    I'd be ok with Salem and a future 3rd ( maybe 2nd) round pick. Love salo but hasn't been anywhere near it since 21 and IMHO is just hanging on at AFL level based on previous performance not current

    Essendon losing tonight and falling out of the 8 by the end of the round would bring me great joy! If this happens and we somehow get the job done against Freo it would be the most satisfying weekend since '21
  23. Sounds like a shtty flight back to Freo after the Hawthorn game, advantage Melbourne :-) https://www.news.com.au/travel/travel-updates/incidents/glaring-neglect-national-jet-express-staff-forced-to-scoop-toilet-waste-manually-on-flight-carrying-freemantle-dockers-afl-players/news-story/874e4a0f0e5f46d102062a02055ad832
  24. '94 was exciting as we outperformed expectation, that final against Carlton was one of my favourite games ever just demolished them as an underdog. Other posters are right 95 was cursed. But for me 1998 was the flag that got away due to the worst finals format ever that punished us and was never seen again.
  25. So have I got this right, the dogs got jamarah so they changed the rules which meant we missed Mac Andrew and now are going to change it back?
