  1. This a problem when you have: 1. a 23 round fixture,; and 2. All the Dreamtime games, the Derbies, the Heritage rounds, ANZAC Days etc Would like to see an analysis of past years and those with easy draws falling in the finals...if anyone can be bothered.....
  2. Good article Its a blight on the game Remarkable how many times commentators refer to the ladder saying things like Geelong are the stand out without doing the most rudimentary analysis of the fixture. A bit like Brisbane and their home ground advantage
  3. Isn't there an MVP based on the Players votes? I'd suggest that would be pretty high up on their wish list
  4. We have the number 1 defence in the competition based on Pts against Other teams will be intimidated to meet Melbourne in a home final at the G
  5. Disgraceful hit. Should be weeks
  6. Pretty sure your mate Weid won't get a gig
  7. Have I misread this? Ah OK, I see now. If it goes according to seedings we play the winner of Coll v Freo
  8. If we beat Sydney we play the winner of Freo and the Dogs in the Prelim Not unhappy with that.
  9. A win against Sydney sees us play the winner of Freo and the Dogs in the Prelim
  10. Where is the vision? Do you have a link?
  11. One of those times he had just come off the bench and Brisbane were attacking so he took himself down to defence to take a good intercept mark
  12. Couldn't stop laughing at The (self-proclaimed) Barometer for Brisbane - Mathieson - 0 tackles in the first half. He certainly was the barometer!
  13. Wasnt Brayshaw on Neale most of the night?
  14. I think the club and the players have behaved themselves impeccably. They went out hard at the ball all night, were not put off by Brisbanes fake toughness, hit them legally hard, ground them into the turf and smashed them on the scoreboard. Brisbane are a basket case. They can't play the MCG, they can't play finals. They can't play Melbourne. They choose low life Captains. The club then stood up for their mate Petty, Richardson went straight to the Brisbane Football Director and let him know what had happened. That is culture that is streets ahead of Brisbane and most clubs to be frank.
  15. Jackson Brayshaw Trac Kozzie Rivers Hunt
  16. I watched our earlier game this year again We killed them. And without Gawn who was sitting in the stands They have some weapons and are a 3/4 goal better side at the Gabba but we have got this if we show up
  17. jnrmac replied to Jibroni's topic in Melbourne Demons
    Rutten seems like a good bloke but I hate this club and they deserve everything they get. Perhaps don't whitewash and deny the drugs scandal for a decade.
  18. You have to start 6,6,6 so it is likely Langdon was as far back (left of screen) as possible. Its a defensive set up that Collingwood used all day against us last week Their wings run in off the back of the pack to stop 'out the front' clearances or alternatively as an avenue to run past and collect a handball from their mids before roosting it fwd
  19. Its been said a few times by players that they watched the end of the Coll game multiple times to distill what they should do in a 2/3 minute have to win the game scenario. We had 3 players in the middle of the ground to attack through the corridor rather than the boundary and thats why Lever was signalling to kick it there (which he did) I recall Clarko practising that against us when the Hawks were 100 pts up. I thought he was just being mean but he was using the 'dead time' to practice two minute match simulations.
  20. Players come and go. Its a business The Club is ours for life.
  21. They did in rd 13 In fact the 4thqtr rd 13 and 1st qtr this round they kicked 11 straight
  22. How about the tunnel ball throw!!!
  23. Their accuracy and our inaccuracy have them a sniff. Frees in front of goal don't help. Our crumbing fwds were AWOL. Simply not good enough
  24. hmm that aint happening! Altho I'd be happy for it to happen Although our average win over the last 5 rounds at Optus is 57 points... Our 2nd home ground.
