I reckon Dawes would be still at Collingwood if Malthouse was.

I thought that as well Sue.

[censored] of the highest order, I won't watch FC maily because of her. Glad to see Eddie give her a gob full. Llyod was right, it's a rumour with no substance that has been around for a few weeks and I bet she has done her hardest to prove it true, couldn't so she just throws it out there and then says "Oh just a rumour" [censored], I wouldn't be surprised to find out that Mitch Robinson was her love child, flogiest of the flogs.

Their players seem to be always having a fair crack. They have not been flogged half as bad as us. Agree it's a bit rich us having a go at them when we have the same amount of wins with a lot less % that they do.

Agree on your comments, Amendola was a great receiver, but spent more time injured than not. Jackson wasn't a flashy wow factor RB, just made solid yardage. I'll be stoked if Long can get back done form. Yeah typical SF and Seattle are going well as we try to build

No big forward means Merrett is going to spoil or mark everything if we bomb it in.

Me?

Dawes said he would be playing seniors in 2-3 weeks, so he thinks a game or two for Casey and straight in, with Clark missing def this week, not sure about the week after he just may be back in two. He did say they had gradually built him up this time so the chance of reoccurrence is very small.

With us the loss of Jackson and Amendola could be huge, really depends on how the new guys in do, I think we signed some good players in areas we need, now to get a few class rookies. I'd love a great running back.

Thing is Jones always plays to a high level and we all appreciate it, others get the supporters a little excited cos its something new or good form coming back. Jones will have the Bluey wrapped up in 6 weeks time.

I think the point is Shaw appreciated Howes contribution to our games

I watched the replay of the first quarter and I must admit he did not seem as bad in the first quarter on tv, he even runs back and spoils the ball with a player behind him. Still think he does not have positional awareness in the backline

Exactly, sometimes after the first win the mountain is off the shoulders and another good performance is there to be had. Must get off to a good start and build on the last quarter.

Would have kicked 10 if he did not have the beard..........

Jones has some flaws but I will take those and not give a [censored] as this lad gives 100% effort each and every contest! If most did it 75% of the time, we would be in a better situation.

Watch I'm at F50 stoppages and how often he blocks for others, one f the very few Melbourne players who do

Bring McKenzie back in to tag Beamer.

I thought Chip was very tight defensively early and in the last broke out and was decent

Cop 3 down to 2. Jetta has flummoxed me from day one, I must see him differently cos he seems to pick and choose when he chases or attacks the ball. I honestly don't know why he seems to be pumped up on his site.

Face it, Watts is not a backman, makes he wrong decisions when being accountable for a player and is not in the right spots when he doesn't have one.

Te umpire by the letter is correct, once the umpire would ave used sense and let the play continue as he had clearly played on or called it back o the original spot of the mark.

I thought his first quarter was good as well. Thought he led hard and chased a bit but could not grab the ball when trying to mark.

Looking at the Rams schedule and I'm struggling to find a lot of wins in it......another long season I reckon. Bradford needs to stand up and take the game by the scruff of the neck and bring us up a level. The draft will be interesting to see which way we go.

Agree that it's a decent idea, I think they ay we are tho we just can't afford to do that.

But when these kids who play for the pies come in, thy are surrounded by quality, they have also learnt their role in a side where winning is secondary to playing the same style as the seniors. Young kids come in for us and don't have a lot of composed senior playes to show them, shelter them and also the whole team is to under the pump, the cop the opposite when they come in for us. If Viney was at the pies, he would be getting 20-25+ possessions each game and not be in their best.
