Go the Biff

There are very restricted grounds on which you can appeal. Disagreeing with the decision isn't one of them.

I reckon our fitness issues are far less to do with the lungs and the legs than they are the heart and the head

Shirley you can't be serious. I note Anderson lost another one last week He is the Tom Gillies of player advocates....with more exposed form

Weeks ago he'd hardly been on the park. Since then he's had some decent games in defence, taken a few hangers and kicked a couple of bags of 4. I'd have thought that would give his self belief a bit of a kick along

Box Hill / Hawthorn

I tend to look ahead and see what else is available for him. Generally it's SFA. Our midfield running patterns are deplorable, in both offence and on defensive transition

It's a fair call. Carlton were witches hats.

My dear and ancient mum has watched her Dees through the glory era of the 50's and 60's and subsequent less than glorious eras up until the current day. She no longer goes to matches but armed with her Foxtel IQ and an arsenal of remote controls, she still watches every game. She rates Clarrie second only to the great Robbie. Go well Clarrie, have a great 200th

Still can't figure out why Harley Reid isn't doing time. That was fricking disgraceful

Yep. 5 time MFC leading goalkicker. Equal with Fred Fanning. Only Neitz (7x) ahead of them. Must be incredibly lucky 🙄

What hit ?

Doesn't even need to be elite kicking Sir Why. Converting at average AFL standard would paint a much different picture

You had to rest them somewhere. There was no interchange then.

Sharp is doing nothing to press his claims for a recall to the senior team. Almost unsighted

He is. A fence will be erected if this keeps up

Parke and Dillon

Firstly, I'm still on board the Jeffo train although my seat is a lot closer to the door than yours. Agree that not playing him at all this week was a mistake. With regard to his 10 goals in two games, you should balance the numbers with a bit of context. The Preston team he played are abysmal at VFL level. Yet to win a game and are made up of chippies, sparkies & wannabe influencers. You probably played against better teams in the ammos. The Sydney team are little better. To Jeffo's credit, he got his goals when the game was in the balance rather than the final quarter avalanche. Pleasingly, in both games he got goals through his tackling efforts, an area in which some have questioned him. Personally I'd like to see Jeffo perform at a high level against some of the better, more mature VFL sides before rushing him back in. Get his confidence & belief up. Like it or not, he's still developing. Some take longer than others. I'm pretty sure that it was @Axis of Bob who posted what I believe to be a fair and accurate summary of where Jeffo is at. I cbf finding it but if you can, have a read Right here, right now, there's no way Jeffo could do Petty's role. Simply not mature enough

Warren. No.23. Despite a shocking hook foot when kicking for goal , was a a ripper. Played his first season largely on the wing before moving to CHF. Blew out a knee and never played AFL again despite being speculatively drafted by WCE a year or two later

Moved there in the second half

Say what ?

I think Jesse still has a few fans on here. I stumbled across this and ended up watching the whole thing. Jesse's story in his own words. The first 40 minutes or so are around his time at Melbourne, everything he was going though & finally leaving for Freo. It's honest, raw and equally enlightening and bloody heartbreaking for his Dees fans. If the big fella still has a place in your affections, I recommend this highly. Jesse interview on Dyl & Friends

Same when she left the Doggies. Some bridges burnt there as well. @DeeSpencer marked her cards early in her career with the Dees. He was spot on.

No. No you are not. Petty's leading and running patterns, his ability to impact aerial contests and his capacity to make opposition defenders accountable make him comfortably our best KPF. His work contributes to the likes of Melksham, Kozzie and even Fritta being able to do their thing. We're close to having what looks like a functional forward structure and method. First time in years. If JVR spends a few successful weeks at Casey and returns with form and confidence, I've no doubt he and Petty could be a formidable combination. Good to see you looking at the game and not just the stats sheet @DubDee . Plenty don't.

Many of us would have blown up before we reached the banner 😀

In an interview a few years ago, TMac mentioned that he'd like to play until he's 35. Not sure I'd bet against him
