Copped an absolute spray late in the 4th from the reserved seating. He then avoided that particular pocket like the plague.

Talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face. At one point in the seecond quarter, I'm almost certain Jacobs, Dangerfield, Vince and Thompson were being matched up on our 'superstar' midfield of Spencer, McKenzie, Bail and Nicholson. Posters here at some point need to come to the conclusion that is staring them in the face: WE ARE NOT THAT GOOD.

Surely that's the kind of thing you'de be keen to get out of? QCS training was the biggest waste of 3 days I'd ever spent at school.

Grimes wasn't the only one. I was left wondering whether Strauss even thought he was a defender at stages yesterday.

COLIN SYLVIA.

Provided the best lolworthy moment in a game of footy when he and Jacobs BOTH went too early and ended up on the ground. The look on the face of the MFC waterboy when he saw the Spencil lumbering to FF was priceless as well. I will say in his defense, though, some of his taps were actually very good, but because our midfield are pox, they were made to look ordinary.

It's clearly a combination of lack of support and an increased training intensity. I wouldn't be surprised if he actually covers the most ground of any of our players. Case in point: the game yesterday; when he was being 'rested' up forward, time and again, he was the only player providing a lead. Everyone else just standing motionless.

Was almost considering just giving Green 21 votes and letting the farce end, however, upon reflection.... 6. Sylvia - stood up against a good team for a change. 5. Jones - absolute hard nut. Just doesn't give up. 4. Sellar - would've had the 6 if he could kick. 3. Howe - give this man a preseason and he could be anything, providing he hasn't killed himself flying to take a grab. 2. McKenzie - niggler. Love the way he goes about it. 1. Bail - just for starting a few fights.

Add us beating Adelaide and the doggies knocking off the Cats, and it's a dream result for us!

Crack in and have a crack?

And now Carltank are behind to the Suns. This weekend just keeps getting better!

Wizz Fizz?

It's obviously Leigh Brown's fault. Rubbish coach. Should be sacked as soon as his contract is up.

Don't worry, Jamar will be there.

Please, please, please Jamar in the development league! The lols alone would be worth it.

No, at this stage it's 13 - after all non-finals teams. Bear in mind that the Free Agency picks may be given out, and if Cloke leaves Collingwood, you'd assume they'd get a decent pick out of the deal. Also, GWS can still poach OOC players, all first-rounds to come at the end of the first round. Our 2nd-round could yet be as high as 30, meaning if we manage to Viney with the 2nd, it'd be the steal of the draft, easily!

Isn't Tom the brother who has had injury issues, IIRC around the time Dylan was drafted? If so, rookie pick at best, I'd say.

If he's keen to leave the Gold Coast, low-ball. 4th-round pick. We'll be laughed out of the room, but at least we won't have been caught overpaying.

Can I nominate thaipantsman? His posts are getting so much better now that I've blocked them.

Definitely, insomuch as at some stage we've run out of wood, and are now painting the dirt.

Good thing there's one J Viney coming to the Dees next year.

Trust me, this is not funding TPP. It's just a way to sell it to the masses. Realistically, it'll be spent on logistics, back-of-house staff and little extras that the FD desires, but isn't a 'core' expense. As I don't have the figures on me, feel free to correct if I'm wrong, but isn't TPP only about 25-30% of total expenditure for the club? This is money that will be used on selling the club, but it won't draw donations if that is what is said.

Ron Burgundy, just for this piece of genius:

Not that I'm saying we should let him go, but I'm sure I've heard (anecdotally) that we have one of the tallest lists in the league. Although, to be fair, we do have 5-6 players who are 192cm tall, and therefore will clearly never make it.
