Damn thats not good news at all. I hope Bartram can get through it alright, I dont know what i would do. Iguess the best thing he can do is be suroounded by friends to help him through it.

Best thing about today was finding out Joffa put the jacket on when the filth was 17pts up. D'oh.

thats gold. suck it joffa you tool

in other games: Well done tigers for showing some heart. Real character to push out a win in these dark times

My Grandfather fought on the Somme, WW1.

My Father fought in New Guinea, WW2.

When I was a kid, I marched with the old man on Anzac days.

My brother-in-law fought in Vietnam.

We do the dawn service each year.

Hazy, you are correct. I was saying the same to the missus tonight.

Don't you people worry about political correctness! Say what you think. That's what they fought for.

Cheers to that.

speaking of the footy show, how much of a toss pot is Fev. I would like to smack his head one day

Sylvia, if you have a good game this week you will leap frog the yellow line and you will not be evicted next week, its as simple as that.

QBD against Collingwood may drag an extra 10,000 through the gates and shut those up at AFL House who have been questioning our right to the game recently.

I would not be surprised if he was selected for that game.

press conference:

DB " yeah we wanted to give him a taste of the big league

Reporter: " will you be driving your Volvo to the game or riding the scummy train system"

DB: " Volvo. i want to get to the game on time"

i really want to see this kid play.

He seems to be strggling to string games togegther due to injurys.

Dissapointing

Maybe he should go on the same program as Watts and Blease this year, to get his body tuned in better

Poor Maric. He will struggle more to get into the team when we get Grimes, Bucks Macca and Wona back. He is really having to earn his spot, which can be a good thing for a young pup.

Add Paul Wheatley to that list.

Paul still has some to offer i think. Jamar is gone though.

strauss

i hope he does. i live close to the dolphins ground, so i can do the triple threat this sunday.. Maybe

I just wanted to know if there are any Melbourne supporters with any chips on there shoulders from the past or know of any supporters or family members that have.

I ask this as i heard somewhere that an old lady turned her back on Barassi due to the fact that he left our club to go to carlton.

If so how can they be fixed? I mean considering all the positive stuff coming out of Melbourne at the moment it would be good to have the future more united.

Twilight + rain = financial disaster

I don't really see the benefit to this. An inexperienced side will learn more from playing teams at their best than hoping the weather will 'bring them down to our level.'

Damn straight!

ill throw all the stones i want at your backyard shed of a team.

BY " backyard shed " i mean. rusty old tools, holes all over it and surrounded by dog [censored]

crap if they cant handle the pressure now, what happens if we make a grand final.

I spoke to Wheels and for two weeks running he has got a corky, hignly p****d off, he also does not want this to be his last year....

It will be if he doesn't play a game

experiment with all the players (this year) because at the end of the season we will know if they are going to cut in the big league or not. Newton for me could go either way.

The Hawks 'dont think.. do' campaign is excellent if you havent heard it

It was the first few times I heard it, but now i just yawn at it.

Sucks about Strauss

How long off is he. Is he an injury prone player?

Our midfield gave them (a hapless, pathetic team) a battering moreso than our forwards

I agree midfield made us look the goods

Blown out of proportion I think. Nothing wrong here.

Boy will be boys, but then again Prudes will be prudes

Actually thats not true, We have alot of in and under players who can get the hard ball but we get beaten by class usually.

Yeah we really need a classy outside player in the midfield to complement the in and under. But it will come, eventually.

Towards the end of his career we paid him much more than he was worth. I'm not too sympathetic.

White was on major coin. Its footy people, if we stay loyal to players too much you end up with drift wood, we just cleared some out last year.

The only reason he got a game is because the comedy festival is on.....what a joke. He simply is not up to it. PERIOD. Take off your eye patches.

Maybe but who else can take his spot? He is a tall target we need.

Watts is not ready nor Jurrah. We need a target, Juice is our man for now

How good is richo though, he is an absolute star.

I don't think any player would not play to there full potential because of the coach. They just seem to have poor skills and lack confidence. There main problem is they rely on there older players too much, the younger boys need to step up.

Triple M went through there recruits from the last five years, and you can see why they have not stepped up yet, really poor drafting. Cameron has a massive task ahead of him, the pressure will be immense this next draft for him.

The tigers started there re-build with hawks and look how far ahead the hawks are. i honestly think that the tigers are now even behind us, even though our list is so young.

Damn it is frustrating being a supporter. lol
