Just for fun have a look at the last quarter of round 22 1987. Sugar Healy.......classic deliberate non deliberate

I do wish there could be a float mic that picked up the questions better

Love the way he talks - "if you don't visualize it, you don't get it"

The test will be next week, can he back it up. Fingers crossed

I suspect that if they are into them they will trade for a suitable pick

two of our better performers this year; take away the age factor and it is a no brainer. Melky provides an x factor up forward and TMac was the most consistant defender of the big units all year (inexplicably dropped halfway through the season)

Hate this itme of year

Juddy and Rooey to Freo for Dogga.

that is a great photo!

At a time when we are looking to acquire new players, I wonder if a coach like Buckley creates a bigger draw card to an inexperienced senior coach. I still think the model that we used last time (Roos as coach with Goody as the anointed one) was a great outcome. 12 years of stability and a premiership. Buckley on a 3 year contract with the next long term coach as assistant would work well for me. Also my dogs name (my Avatar) is Berkeley pronounced Barkly. I could be tempted to alter the pronunciation in the event of his appointment.

Blue-murder!!!

Just out of interest, how old are you OD? in human and Dog years please

Thanks as ever Ghosty!!! You do a great job of obsess-supporting for all of us mere mortals

I watched him on Saturday at Preston and I was impressed with his disposal by foot however it looks like he would be competing with Bowser, Salo or Windsor for a position at the moment and I reckon he is well behind those three

Almost fully fit list makes selection tricky. A good sign that we are dropping good players

Jesse Hogan says Hi! unfortuntaely retention was not strong in this one.

And he marked the ball, a fundamental difference between his and other suspension cases

I reckon Max has no plan to retire in the next two seasons. Still BOG and a star of the comp. I imagine they will trade heavily for a ruckman when his time is up and hope that young Khalani is a hit too

Agreed with Sharp, it seems we saw the best of him against North in a practice match. Hopefully he can do it again

I get what you wanted to see and I too was disappointed but it was great to be so far ahead that we could rest two really important players for the last 10 minutes. In that time their scores came from mismatches in the ruck and up forward.

By being 45 points up we had the luxury of being able to rest Max and May.

We took our captain and key defender off to manage them which you can do when you are 45 points up

Yes, ran out of legs but also rested max and may for the second half of the quarter. We managed our important players which you can do when you are 45 points up.

We took our skipper and our key defender off to rest them. For the first time in the game 33 was rucking against Nankervis. It totally impacted the flow of play.
