Geelong get everything from the Umps.....EVERYTHING!

Nope, this is a list of undefeated teams who did not win the flag that year.

Did Not Play ?

Might have been said already but after that May went to help him up and Franklin brushed his hand away....very grumpy old man.

Wow, not what I saw, the Swan slid in to the contest taking his legs out.

The President was on the ABC just now and explained the extensive due diligence that they go through when doing deals like this. Every deal gets presented to the board for sign off; it does not sound like anything except a well thought our strategy.

Agree with this although now that BB is back in he will need to fully implode to be dropped. The guy is the great white hope and I am not sure the match committee will drop him any time soon as he has too much proven upside.

I know that this is a default question and I ask with due respect but were you at the game or did you watch on TV? He was poor in the first half but really blossomed in the second which considering it was his first game in over a season made sense. I rate him and am curious to know if his work did not show up on the TV

I believe the long deals several players received are due to making space for mega offer to CP5

☝☝☝☝☝☝☝ & ? That is all

I reckon we win setting up a week long narrative regarding whether the filth will provide Norf with their first win of the season next week....please make it so.....

Jeff White went alright

I loved Jeremy Howe when he was with us but he has really not conducted himself well towards the club that gave him his chance. I hope he does regret leaving one day

My sport hating wife reckons all footballers are thick; I reckon all footballers are like society, some are smart and some are thick but they can all do the football thing really well. Trac can do it really, really well!

I think we need to just enjoy the ride; haters gonna hate and frankly who cares. Snow gags, pretenders, April Premiers, underachievers, draftcheaters...big deal; the results speak for themselves 6-0. Sooner or later you either win the premiership or you don't; that is how we win respect!!

Tail is a-waggin!

Naturally I am particularly pleased

Remind myself that it is a marathon and not a sprint

This Guy: "They're actually looking really good, and some of the areas they excel are areas we aren't so strong at. Gawn will dominate against us, especially if we only play Nankervis. He will need additional support and even then, Gawn is likely to be the best big man on the ground. So they excel in our ruck weakness. Also without Prestia, their midfield has the potential to smash us inside. Petracca, Oliver, Viney, Jones will be very formidable inside and doing the grunt work. We probably have them on the spread if it gets out, but there's every chance they dominate the clearances so I think their strength there is challenging to one of our weaknesses without the Meatball to help. To mitigate this, one of RCD or Ross has to come into the 22. I think we are going to need that extra player in the mid rotations and hope they are ready to have an impact. The areas I think we are on top, is that I think our forward line stacks up well, particularly if May misses again. I rate the firepower of Lynch, Riewoldt, Martin plus our rotational smalls compared to their team. Ben Brown could be a danger if he plays, but he could also be coming in for his first game and not have a big influence or synergy yet. I also think our back 6 has the edge, and just need our mids to break even. The danger is if the mids are smashed the back 6 will be under siege and missing Vlastuin still will hurt. A lot of our forward strategy depends on if May plays. If he doesn't then Jack and Lynch need to play as far away from each other as possible to isolate the other against the lesser KPD, and force Lever to choose one or the other rather than sitting loose and zoning to cover both of them. We know that in the first 10 or so rounds, Richmond are more of a grind and get results rather than playing our best football. I feel the Demons are on a higher level than that at this point of the season, and so wouldn't be surprised if they get up. The final thing in our favour though is that Richmond do generally turn up in the big games, and while the Demons will not lack motivation, in front of a big crowd (unsure of the capacity limits?) on the big stage Richmond have to have more trust in them. It's a genuine 50/50 game for mine. IMO we need to split the Demons/Dogs 1-1. It would be a big ask to win both on current form of all 3 sides, but we can't afford to lose both either. I think this is a better match up for us, and tipping the Tigers to shake some of the early season cobwebs and flex a bit of muscle to win a great contest by 8 points."

I am currently working through Casey v Box Hill at the moment on 7Plus. Love this technology thing. A lot to like at the moment, a lot to like.

Save yourself some pain OD and watch second half only

Yep,m that is what I wound up doing. A bit carp though
