I already told you this could go either way... seems you have little insight into the game?

Oh god... here we go again!! Why don't you do the sensible thing and throw away whatever device it is you are posting from.

I disagree as they have a team that is probably better balanced than ours at this stage. Anyway, time will tell.

Our outs are not exactly unimportant either...McDonald, Cross, Jordie...also a first gamer coming in as well as a player with speed but lacking in skills when it comes to delivery by foot. We should win, but I would equally not be surprised if we lost...it is a game that could go either way.

And you are no better. Apart from the fact that H-H is a poor excuse for a supporter (turns on the club the moment anything starts to go awry), are you seriously telling me your post at 4:10pm added value? (at least I waited until after the game was over and discussion was essentially over). "Mate get it through your head. Toumpas needs to stand up, he is way off the mark right now and is barely making the Casey Seniors. For what we took him at the draft is a joke right now, if I didnt know any better I would think BP were behind picking him up."

Abused you for no reason???? You go on and on and on and on and on and on and on (getting the picture?) about how poor JT is, about how pathetic the Dees are (when not going well) and can't even honour your word when it came to no longer posting on this site. You are the classic fair weather supporter and I seriously wish that the admin on here would assist you in keeping your word by giving you an extended holiday from the site.

Taxi possibly?

Or the one that Dunn, Jetta, Jamar, Watts, Vince and numerous others painted? Not every player is going to be an overnight sensation. By the way, you weren't the guy honking the horn behind me in the drive through at KFC were you? Seemed waiting more than 2 minutes for his feed was all too much for him,

He writes so well...the bit about "Matt" actually brought a hint of a tear to my eye. Did anyone on D'land get along to the game he is writing about?

Barry of course!

I'm another who hopes he plays. He's been working away at Casey with not much recognition, so it's nice to see he is getting (possibly) the opportunity to air his wares in the AFL. It's adds to the pleasure of watching us play when we get to see how well the players are developing.

I would have thought is Salem is rested, JKH may come back in as the sub?

Interesting to note that the Real Footy game review had Tom in the best players: Vince, McDonald, N Jones, Dawes, Watts, Dunn, Tyson.

Yes, he drove me crazy with his disposal by foot on the weekend, but apart from that, he played a far more serviceable game than a number of other more highly rated players (Howe, Garland, Frawley etc).

"Catching"?

I'm going to have to book in for some anger management sessions after this.

The handballing today has been nothing short of pathetic!!!

Everytime McDonald has the ball, my stomach sinks knowing that the opposition is about to get another possession.

Really? Looked like McDoland (but it was a long shot on the TV)... my mistake

Lucky... but nice goal from Vince

One of the worst advantage calls I've seen for a while

McDonald really needs to learn how to deliver a ball by foot... almost gave away a goal.

Brilliant mark by Dawes

No...that rivalry all but disappeared years ago...the Qld v NSW rivalry leaves it for dead.

I've liked the Doggies since Libba retired... Murphy's one of my favourite players and I have a lot of time for Dahlhaus. Saints I dislike but can't dislike too much because they were my mothers team and North I dislike (but not hate) mainly because their coaches for some weird reason always seem to be whingers.There are only three teams I would put on my absooute hate list... Richmond, Carlton and Essendon.
