Bitter but optimistic

Flag, you make a good point here and one that surprised (amazed) me as I watched it. Pendlebury argued vehemently with the umpires and got the decision reversed. The replays indicate that Pendles was correct - fair enough. However, I've never seen this happen before. In fact, you often hear the commentators laughing when a player argues with an umpire. " Haha BT , have you ever seen a free kick reversed" ? "" Ho!Ho! It never happens" Well it did [censored] happen and I'd be interested in other posters views on this. BTW. Thanks for bringing this up Flag. I've been on the [censored] and forgotten . BTW 2. I'm not saying umpiring cost us the game ( we were [censored]) .

Good point!

You raise important .... even crucial questions bingers - no doubt about it. For mine the answer lies in how much money I've won ..... or lost on Sportsbet .................... and whether or not The Maid has found a new hiding spot.

The Monkees !!! FMD you were dead then How about the Everly Bros or even the big O ?

Decent sentiments Ernie but that’s the world we live in. The “ freedom of expression “ that has developed via social media is quite out of control The age of innocence has , sadly, passed

Picket I’m sure your ability to slurp booze and keep the social club alive had something to do with it!

Jackson ( Liking this kid more and more) Jordan (Another good young'un) Petracca May Salem Langdon

Agreed. Weid simply must go - another Barry Crocker today. BBB should be given the time to settle in to our structure ( though I'm not sure what that was today) Viney in. Sparrow is the logical out but he will get more opportunities.

On today's effort we'd need to throw in steak knives for someone to take him

Very ordinary. Very disappointing. Looked flat and tired. Hopefully the bye will allow us to reset and freshen up Weid gone!

I’m about to spew up a decent Shiraz We’re [censored]

Weid has hardly been in the picture all game.

Most turnovers this year id reckon

The Maid ends up in the stocks for far less than that chook

Yeah fair enough - good each way bet.

Good points titan but if we win in the middle it can be in the goal square in one kick. I reckon Weid will get opportunities today - he'll need to capitalize .

You're looking at the wrong end chook!

Being a traditionalist, I'll be inhaling a couple of meat pies from the local bakery but the real key to a good day 's barracking will be sloshing them down with a decent shiraz. Timing is key off course so the first one will hit the cakehole at about 2.30.

Well your good old Uncle Bitter is back after a spell of enforced rehab. ...... and a better man for it no doubt. I'm positively uplifted at the moment. Very [censored] that the game is in Sydley - the Olympic city as I had big plans for the footy (and after) today! As has been said elsewhere, the filth will come out hard right from the start. I expect they will stay in it until about halfway through the second and then our class should start to tell. We've suffered some costly losses to the filth at times and now it's time to put the boots in and give Bucks an unhappy send off. Dees to win by 38 points and sit happily atop the ladder going into the bye.

Langdon concussed !!!!

No change unless Viney is available.

One of the best team efforts I can recall. Oliver Harmes Rivers Brayshaw Gawn Lever ( Good performance from Petty also)

I now believe the Grand Final guarantee I've been paying for 15 years will finally pay dividends !!! Now where is the maid hiding ?

Might as well sub Weid out

Yeah I know skinny ...... and you even played cricket!!!
