2024 Injury List
I was a bit concerned about Chol's knee after it got smashed by May's ribcage and Van Rooyen's head in the same game. Have seen no media or AGL reports as to whether he has pulled up ok.

PREGAME: Rd 01 vs Western Bulldogs
Players are routinely niggled, retarded and interfered before and after they go for the ball. The game has become anarchic, which is either exciting or a turn-off depending on your point of view. The AFL could do worse in these circumstances than bring back Tom Wills' original laws of the game.

Good news week (positive news only)
We don't give up. When the Swans piled on goals in the last, we still fought on and snagged a couple back. Since start of last year i don't think we have been monstered in any game (except for Essendon early in the season... even then we pulled a few goals back).

And he's right about this.
Just throw someone forward. It's worked in the past. Even for a quarter or a half: Ray Biffen Sean Wight Neita Petty Steven May is the man. Then throw someone, anyone back: JVR, Fullerton. We have to get creative.

Welcome to Demonland: Caleb Windsor
I have been wasting my time on AFL stats going over these halcyon years, and the abysmal kicking of these two. If either Dillon or Parke could kick straight we would surely have made a couple of finals appearances in that grim decade.

My golden days of going to the football. Lots of Grand Old Flag passion in the southern stand. No voice-over ground announcers. The Dees often played with desperation, just didn't have access to the top-flight players. The late 70s, by which time Wells had gone to Carrrton, that was a different matter.

Kayo is 4K in 2024
Modern day punters have it so easy. We used to watch VFA on channel 10 with a black and white pixel haze. I couldn't even tell whether Eddie Melai or Fred Cook had the pill. And that was on a sunny day. And we never complained once.
