I take it you mean Sharon Hoe(y)... yeah, rabid I think is the term that best describes her.

Sorry, but after our past 3 weeks, even with Lake out, I cannot see us rolling the Doggies; they are another of those teams that seem to have the wood on us. I'm usually very upbeat about our chances, but I'm starting to get whatever it is that Old Dee is suffering. After watching the way GWS showed some fight against the Weagles, I am feeling more and more disenchanted...as I said somewhere else, I feel bad about giving my 10 year old son a Young Demon membership as part if his birthday present...in retrospect, I think he might have preferred a pair of socks.

Grimes lays a tackle and knocks himself out???? Sums it all up really.

This is just getting embarrassing!!! In all of my 50+ years of following this team, I have NEVER felt so much like giving up as a member/supporter.

And to add insult to injury, a free kick for a goal to Richmond for an interchange infringement... we really are a shambles!!!

And again they show a replay while Nahas is kicking a goal.

Half the team needs to go... I'm sorry, but putting in an effort for 5 minutes each quarter is not acceptable.

How do our defenders constantly allow their forwards so much room?

Smart and strong play from Clark... nice set up for Sellar to goal.

I really don't know where this idea (pushed by a few on here) that Sylvia is a bogan comes from as he just acquitted himself very well on Fox Footy... very well spoken and intelligent well considered comments.

Ridiculous free to Clark.

The only thing that is saving us is their terrible kicking at goal.

How did Rewoldt get that much space??? Frawley sleeping?

I'm liking Bate's game/

Fox Footy show a replay of Jones earning a free while he kicks the goal?????

Lucky we got that sponsor deal... could be forking out a few dollars in fines this week.

Apart from passing the ball to opponents a couple of times to help set up goals, can anyone tell me what Jack Grimes has done?

More dumb play... this time from Clark!!!

At the moment, $5.25 flatters us!

Well, maybe we are... Grimes just handed Nahas a goal on a platter... stupid stupid footy.

The look on Joffa's face when he was in shot five minutes before the end of the third... priceless!! (and MM is probably having a quiet chuckle to himself about now)

The other thing I'm taking heart in is the fact that this is putting the Toigs performance last week into perspective... they appeared to perform well against the Pies last week, but now it would seem that maybe the Pies are just not as good as we thought... and don't forget we beat the Pies in the pre-season, which probably says more about them now, than it does us - the writing was on the wall.

Nope, free kicks in WCEs favour.

Sorry, I read through this carefully, but try as I might, I could not find a single pun... perhaps they are a little subtle for me? I did note there are a couple of names in Voney (who you seem to expect to be fruitful) and Burleigh (who it seems could attract no decent bites)... aaaah, I get it now. Very clever! (sorry, I just couldn't resist)

Yep... I think it was on AFL360 last night they were saying (can't recall which one) that his head was so messed up from the events of last week, that he was in no state to play at all. This does show good management and, I think, shows that Neeld is not really the hard ass that everyone makes him out to be... he does have some compassion about him, which is good to see.
