whatwhat say what

People aren’t rating Hogan nearly highly enough - he was brilliant today 6: Oliver 5: Hogan 4: Harmes 3: Brayshaw 2: ANB 1: Salem

Losing Smith and not having Hibberd available to come back is a bit of a blow We definitely need defensive coverage against the Swans - their swarm of small forwards (Ronke, Papley, Florent, Hayward, et al) combined with a genuine superstar in Buddy and an emerging tall in McCartin is going to be tricky... ...which is why we need to smash them thru the middle - Gawn, Oliver, Brayshaw, Harmes, Jones and Trac et al vs Sinclair, Kennedy, Parker etc is going to be MASSIVE Win the ball at the contest, limit their propensity to get it forward I reckon our midfield bats deeper but their experience can’t be seriously discounted I also don’t think we’ll throw the baby out with the bath water - they’ll back in our system to get it done OUT: Smith IN: Melksham B: Jetta - O Mac - Vince HB: Lewis - Frost - Salem ? Jones - Brayshaw - Fritsch HF: Petracca - Hogan - ANB F: Melksham - T Mac - Garlett Foll: Gawn - Oliver - Harmes I/c: Spargo - Tyson - vandenBerg - JKH whcih really means: jetta - o mac vince - lewis - frost - salem - fritsch gawn - oliver - brayshaw - harmes - jones - anb trac - hogan - garlett melksham - t mac bench: spargo - tyson - avb - jkh we CAN do this...

Eight weeks, meth coke knocked out in straight sets in the finals, Gaff to the Dees, misses round one and two before debuting in Round 3 against...Freo at the new Perth Stadium?

Losing Smith late was a big blow, but that was a pretty great win in what was tough conditions - so windy today

$1m a year is not a huge imposition for one of the best mids in the game imo he'd not even be 31 and a half when a 5 year deal would expire

no worries - 5 x $1m > 6 x $800k

my main thing is it's not in gc17's best interests to get another win in 2018 they need to maximise not just their own draft pick but the compo pick for lynch they sneak a couple of wins and a pick 2 and 3 combo could easily become a 5 and 6, which is quite a stark difference

why am i so nervous? i shouldn't be so nervous

go left field - jetta on buddy only one with the lateral movement to go with him

important for gc17 to lose so that they don't lose pick 2 (and pick 3 as their compo pick)

Outstanding round of football

if peptides win all four of the remaining games they're making the finals and deservedly so - they'll have beaten tigers at the g and port at adelaide oval in their last two games they have lost two games since they lost to carton in round 6 - one to the tigers in a massacre and a close one against the filth clearly one of the form teams of the competition

yeah he's fantastic here's hoping he has lots of talented kids that want to play for us too

........king?

if results go our way we could third be this by the end of the weekend: tigers - good start peptides (50-50) bears (outside chance) cows (50-50) aints (irrelevant) swannies (50-50) carltank (extrezzo unlikely) us, obviously (if we don't beat gc17 at the g we don't deserve to play in finals) shockers (unlikely, but a possibility) a more likely result would see us 5th or 6th at the end of the round, with us, gw$ and meth coke near monties to win, and the future tasmania, poos&wees, the pear, and the filth all getting up i want to win all remaining games pls

roos after eade? longmire after roos? (goodwin after roos...) plus whingy whiny scott of the cat variety got a premiership first up after taking over from bomber thompson

i reckon north can go all the way to preliminary finals weekend their core of senior players - higgins, ziebell, cunnington, waite, atley, tarrant, thompson, williams, goldstein - is good enough and experienced enough in finals to take them a long way plus sideshow bob is the best tall forward in the game

speaking to a stats boffin yesterday, he said he was amazed fritsch was allowed to slide into the (early) 30s i guess the likes of he and tim kelly have shown that if you are talented and dedicated you can pick the eyes out of the draft with any pick at any level

hahahaha, second person to say that to me today still amusing

as someone who spent the night deep in a glass or eight of red, i though richmond controlled the game before giving the [censored] a sniff for fun richmond are borderline unbeatable at the g

Geelong would need to score half their own score again and essentially keep Tigers scoreless this quarter...unlikely at best

not gonna happen

Would love some details on him...height, weight, playing position etc

http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2018-08-03/walker-bowled-over-by-new-career surely his nickname is tangles??

As a general rule clubs look to employ people that senior coaches have worked with previously, hence why we have Matt Egan as part of our set up and there was talk for a time that Scott ‘that traitorous so-and-so’ Thompson may lob at the Dees I would love Mitchell or Ratten but I’m expecting - like many - that the former will be at Hawks next year but I actually think the latter might head to Brisbane I’m more interested in what we do re football manager if Mahoney was to leave
