Checked my Sportsbet - bookies have us favourite against Crows

Alias Smith and Jones

This. Recently always been ”Hawks/Swans/Cats/WCE played poorly all day, still found way to win”. In my day was Carlton/North/Tigers. Great teams find a way to guts out a win, 2 players down, come from behind, interstate.

Odds v WC lengthened after our win

Pray for undermanned back to wall effort next week - same as Daniher era

Hasn’t improved since Alf Potter’s day. Why don’t they ever have one camera focused for sun and one for shade?

Forward line Isaac, Tom S and Joel

How is that other court case going? after Rich Hawks Final last year, alleged Wellington Parade bashing. Are solicitor family of accused doing everything possible to keep it out of media?

Thought it was our captain. In Thailand and video not great. If it was Chunk, on the field, cop 4 weeks.

Answer - Josh Kelly

Thankyou Footscray, dubious honour usually reserved for us

I always felt the Anzac Day game should between the two highest finishing Vic teams from previous season. Dont think “Birds of Tokyo” appropriate in any way shape or form https://www.bbc.com/news/amp/world-australia-47796046

Actually most significant days are September. So long as we are there and not Essendon.

They only get Anzac Day with Pies We get Anzac Eve with Tiges we get QB with Pies Hawks get Easter Monday with Cats Tiges get R1 with Carlton Recently GF has been Roos v Dogs Roos pushed for GF for years “RCH game” trying to justify/tie it to RCH. North and Footscray were two suburbs nearby the hospital for some reason this year, Dogs (don’t think they were seen as good enough for potential showcase game) replaced by Essendon - logical replacement given proximity of RCH to both clubs. Several fans could ask why we get QB ( birthed from 50s folk lore)

We were favourites marginally in last year final v Eagles

knew how to call it

I thought Lynch Richmond could only get a second shot on goal if the infringement occurs after the umpire has called “all clear”. Doesnt look like enough time.

Favourite son will get off. Been watching footy along time - Peter Keenan - 4 weeks for anything Rod Grinter - ditto David Schwarz - ditto

Same when Port won. Never ever met anyone who supports them. Still not sure if I was happy or sad Lions didn’t match Collingwood’s four in a row. Surely one of footy,s proudest records.

Up to HCMC for couple of days. Heard Mark McLure congratulating midfield for getting back into it after woeful first Q This morning caught 6 minutes of video; Melbourne dominated the highlights, Spargo set up two goals with forward passes, Sydney don’t appear the Swans of old.

Switched phone on and got result after a pleasant evening on banks of Saigon River

MFCSS in me fears the worst then a nail biting win at Cattery

Few years ago knew our season shot 10 minute first Q - round 1 under ND one year meant to cream crap Carlton R1 - lost by a goal

Hawthorn were about 17 or 18 for tackle during three peat. Didn’t worry Clarko
