Where does the panel think the game will be won or lost, and what is the way that Sydney will try and beat us? I cant really get a handle on their game so would be interested in your take.

Good luck to OMAC, whatever his next step is. Would be behind Turner and Tommo at the dees, and the Blues gave him a shot. Another AFL gig might be a stretch given his recent injury history, but I Will remember him as a demon who tried his heart out week in, week out for us.

I hope I never hear the USA USA chant ever again. Almost as bad as the moaning answer to the question “which body part of your most often holds your daddy’s willie”? Colon Would, Colon would….

Interesting that Sammy Weid played 1st ruck yesterday at Casey. Maybe the club is testing out a ‘Silvagni’ style ruck/forward option as potential LJ replacement? If he goes (no idea either way) maybe this is our backup plan?

Swans need to be 80-35 at this point. Go Aints!

I was impressed by Weid in the VFL. Would have him in, and sparrow out. Rejig the lines (melk to hf). Bowie is close, Harmes - got a heap of it but looked like he tried to do too much too often.

Interesting… here is a counter view. With 3 mins to go we needed 2 goals. All of a sudden we kick to the top of the square! Melks marks and goals, Kozzi roves and goals. Kozzi said after the match we had been ‘training it’ during the week. I think we have a defensive entry (pocket) to soak up time in half, and an attacking entry when risk/reward suggests we need quick scores. Think this is quite a bit of tinker.

‘Aggressive, and foul mouthed, he was scaring a group of kids who kept looking around nervously at him”. The sentence after the one you bonded perhaps answered your question….

He should be fined at least, Kozzie was a few weeks back….

I was too exhausted after that to comment last night. I received an email saying no oppo supporters would be allowed in reserved seats, yet I was surrounded by Carlton FLOGS. The one behind me was a limited intellect example of the worst sort of football fan. WOOF every time Saad kicked the ball, “he’s going to Freo’ any time Dogga touched it. Aggressive, and foul mouthed, he was scaring a group of kids who kept looking around nervously at him. He goaded the crowd all night, and when confronted as to why he was sitting in Trident reserved seating said “I paid my money to get in”. Sank low in his chair when the siren sounded, though… Don’t mind oppo supporters who cheer their teams, HATE oppo supporters who need to get a rise from the crowd to validate their existence.

Rain and storms moving through. Dog hiding under the coffee table. Lets see if it sets in or blows over.

Interesting email from the club re non members in reserved seat areas. Must have been some real drop kicks last week, as i have never heard too many complaints about ‘sneaky guests’ from other clubs. Whilst you get the odd peanut, most understand and cheer the footy. for people to complain and the club to react, the filth supporters must have been really bad.

So Grundy replaces Daw…who replaces Dogga?

In his presser, Goody seemed both phizzed off and also very confident. Shootouts don’t suit us. we can win, but not like that. When we allow them to move the ball so easily and crumble under pressure we are stuffed. We won almost all the important stats, but lost the game. That won’t happen too often. time to get this stuff sorted and line ourselves up for a finals campaign. We can win it from anywhere in the 8.

I think its funny that the Toothless brigade are keen for a little gingivitis…. Why can you never solve a crime in the Pies cheer squad? They all have the same DNA and no dental records…

Our loss to them had 4 key talls out or injured. Made Mr USA look like Mr Universe. Not tonight, baby! System system system. Lets show them what a premiership team looks like… Dees by 40. (90 to 50)

What was the Tim Kelly deal? Throwing all in to get one player has set them back considerably.

BT saying its a done deal….

Tonight we see if we have been ‘loading’ or we are loaded with BS. Training footage looked intense and contested. Boy oh Boy! Really want Sam Weid to have a great game. Win it by a point or by a mile, don't mind. As long as we start showing something akin to our best structure and process. It has to start now.

Was quite a show! Gawn at the wrong end of the table - hope the big fella gets back some form.

Interesting to listen to Goody’s presser this week. A lot of repetition re the challenge is in front of us and 6 weeks to go. I have a feeling this is when we start our run to the finals. We might be a bit rusty, but I can see us squeezing the life out of Port today, being better through half forward and creating space for forwards by faster ball movement. Port are no slouch, so we will have to play well. We were within a kick mid way through the last quarter against the cats, then got run over, Can’t see them applying that level of pressure, but we will! Dees to kick 80+, port to kick under 60. That’s a 4-6 goal win.

If either if these players win us games, then they should be selected. They are on our list this year to help us win the flag. We dont need to blood players unnecessarily, or hold out players because they wont be around next year. We just have to pick the best team from who we have, reward performance and effort.

They seemed to allow us Forst possible from the stoppage with manic tackle pressure from behind. Max couldn’t get off the ground. Too slow to execute basic skills under pressure. One or two steps too many. Harmes is not Dusty. A loss we deserved. Poor across the board, lots to work on, If that is their best, we can break it down in finals. Cats supporters are flogs.

Win, lose or draw, that umpiring was so biased. Im glad we took the points, but thre umpires worked hand to get them over the line.

Bring it home for us, WCW!
