Cloke is the potential match winner. Keep him quiet in the last and we win it.

So Gawn was one of the best men on the ground and look what happens. Let's see if he can play four quarters.

Oh and higher work rate across the ground.

The intensity from Collingwood was high, but McDonald was pantsed, Jetta was soft on three or four occasions and Gawn struggled to get his hand on the ball early. To Howe's credit, that's the best quarter of footy he's played since Neeld. If we can get it into Hogan, you feel like he'll beat Frost 9/10. Need more from Gawn this quarter and better decision making off half back.

Our mob deserve to be shot. Absolutely pathetic. Can't remember is winning a one on one

Good on ya, Jeffy. Love having you here. Hope you kick a bag tomorrow.

Which year did you finish?

Liam Jurrah. Talent wasted.

Add Tyson to that group and I'm with you, mate.

We'd be laughing if we got any of those for Fitzy (despite his obvious upside). Would take Macrae any day of the week. Is he still struggling to get a game at the Bullies?

He played like this all of 2014. It didn't seem to deter GWS from offering us pick 7. The rest of the competition still haven't woken up and it seems they won't. That suits us.

This didn't prevent Sydney from winning two flags. Besides, youn can add that outside flair later, as Hawthorn showed through FA. Get your hard nosed, gut-running midfield in place first and then look for the cream.

Playing Howe to keep his trade value up.

Judd also wasn't a great leader. Not sure he would be the greatest coach either.

Rubbish, mate. They will not be cutting 12 or so again. Expect 6-8 to go at the end of this year.

I know you're joking, but not cool.

Biases are based on fear, which is often due to a lack of exposure to something. You can treat fear (and therefore racism) by educating. HH, society can change, there will always be pockets of racism, due to a lack of universal education, but to just put your hands up in the air and say it's all too hard, racism will exist whatever, is kinda beside the point. It certainly doesn't and shouldn't excuse it either.

Beat me to it, Deeflog.

Not sure he plays 6-7 good games. I wouldn't have called the Bulldogs game a good game. He took a couple of good marks, but that's about it. This is the problem with Howe. His highlight reel masks his inadequacies as a footballer. I can't recall the last time he played a really good game. Perhaps, under Neeld.

I thought I alluded to as much in my last post.

Toumpas better get another chance. I'll be annoyed if he is left out.

The Government needs to work closely with the community and its leaders to ensure indigenous voices are being heard. You can't please everyone, but providing a forum for a positive discourse between politicians and respected indigenous voices is paramount. This would ensure tax payer money is spent wisely and economically, and contributes to meaningful and beneficial outcomes for all involved. Ultimately, that's true democracy too.

I'm saying they're at a disadvantage.

Fear is an innate human condition, but fear can be countered with education. Racism often has its groundings in fear and a lack of education.

Pretty tough when money is continually taken out of these communities. The last two paragraphs are so patronising I don't even know where to begin. I don't particularly wish to have an argument on here, but I will say this. It's not up to me or anyone else to tell you where or how you should live, just as it shouldn't be up to politicians to tell indigenous communities how to live. It's like the old daft statement that indigenous people should just assimilate into Anglo culture, with the implication being Anglo culture is superior to indigenous culture. What people who hold this belief tend to forget is the idea of empathy. What if someone told you to assimilate into a foreign culture and way of living? I reckon you'd say [censored] you and rightly so.
