Picking the Suns would be like choosing your plot at a cemetery.

Ask him does he want to be at a club rebuilding from the ashes again. This time with Ross not Roos.....

I am in Bali. Should I try and find him and get an answer if he is going or staying? ? ?

http://m.afl.com.au/news/2018-10-08/wantaway-rory-wants-to-lob-with-the-dockers Would not think Lobb will come cheap, even with the need for salary cap relief for GWS. It will be interesting to see how Freo can trade in Hogan as well.

Good idea ?

Agreed. I am on my way to the game and am not looking forward to barracking for team that knocked us out of the finals. Support the Pies for the day, no way. Came out in the MCC ballot so may as well make use of my $695 a year membership. Go Eagles ???

After the club has supported him through all the terrible things he has gone through in the last few years it’s the right thing to do for the club and his playing mates at it if he decides to leave.

I will be at the game. Eagles for me. Then ✈️ To Singapore Sunday and I am very happy to be away from the post GF week news hyperbole. If the Pies win it would be unbearable for weeks in Melbourne. Especially at work. Got some bucket list things to do on my trip which I can control. The bucket list wish for an MFC premiership is out of my hands but hopefully we all get that one in the not to distant future. Cheers all.

Try disappointed. If your happy with today’s result there are medications available for the affliction. We have had a great ride for the last 5 weeks. Today no. For the living life goes on.

They are the Tigers of old every time they play it’s in their theme song. They had a shocker and played Dusty who was not fit to be out there. Today we played like we did against the Hawks and Pies in the home and away season. Smashed around the ball then we panick and our game plan falls apart. I also think the players were cooked. Life goes on.

You left out the Semi against the Hawks. My point was we played like the Demons of old today. Do I think we are on the right path. Absolutely. Tomorrow the sun will come up and off to watch Casey in the GF. After all tomorrow is another day. Bring on 2019

Perhaps I should have said this season exceeded my expections. You sum up the rest. But winning 2 finals is better than the wooden spoon which a few years ago was common place. As I said earlier in the thread in season 2019 we MUST finish top four. Anything less will be a failure. If we don’t win a premiership in the next 4 years with this core group it will be a failure also. After 50+ years of following this club I am totally over failure make no mistake.

Pretty much the point I was trying to make.

I am happy with the season as I stated in this thread. I am unhappy when we lose like we did today. You are one of my favourite posters on here. Are you happy with today’s performance? It was about as bad as it gets. We were beaten in every facet of the game.

Agreed. Time to stop being the Demons of old when the heat is on. 2019 no more excuses.

Add a premiership as a minimiun in the next four years is a non negotiable. We are now into or 55th year without one and with this core group anything less is a failure. My expections this year was to make finals and win at least one.

Next year we MUST finish top 4. Should have this year and things might have been much different. See Collingwood.

Sums up the year for me also.

Embarrassing end to our finals run ?

All the best with your health. A win should help you to feel better ??

I will be going with friends to the MCC to watch the game. Great atmosphere at the bar area, and will enjoy it even more at “our ground”

It’s our traditional ground, always has been. Forgotten history. (No political statement intended)

Spot on ?
