  1. This is the last time my optimistic half is going to rear its ugly head this year but I think we have a chance. I like Garlett in - should have been a week ago. I like Stretch in - shouldn't have been dropped. ANB ? - well if he can kick only straight! Lockhart - showed a bit the one time I saw him play Smith - this is a big opportunity for him We'll miss Preuss. He draws a crowd up forward and could have opened things up and provided crumbing opps. It would also give the option of moving Tmac back to gain some confidence through keeping Jack out of the game . A well, c'est la vie on that one. I'd like to see Jones deep forward - He's still very good at finding the ball in traffic and knows how to kick a goal. Melk has got to be on the wing surely, to see if he can reproduce those long raking kicks to our forwards. I don't think anyone will kick a bag ( I'd love to see it though) but we need a number of blokes to find the goals. Here's hoping!
  2. FMD Jane!! That is a dangerous call!!
  3. I shall give the maid a memorable rollicking.
  4. Here's my tuppence worth 6 B'shaw 5 Frost 4 Salem 3 Hore 2 Preuss 1. Gawn
  5. Can we grab a few of them for the Richmond game?
  6. I'll have a crack tomorrow. Mentally blitzkrieged at the moment.
  7. I can’t even curse and swear Im not even interested in spanking the maid That was just embarrassing Sadly we’ve got nothing left. Maybe we can turn May and Lever into key forwards- FMD! Book a holiday for September
  8. I’m here too Jane. The bar is the place to be atm
  9. Thank Christ for Preuss! otherwise our forward line is non existent
  10. watching in the bar Jesse just slotted the sealer for Freo
  11. Beautiful day at the G ! Not much of a crowd and no free giveaways- not even a [censored] Easter egg!
  12. Find @Moonshadow ding- he’s into that stuff
  13. Blind drunk is more likely picket!
  14. No worries Dub! I've already ticked this one off in the wins column. It's in the bag.
  15. Jeez, I can hardly contain my excitement and anticipation about this arvo at the "G. Before the Port match I scored a free packet of nuts with the footy record and then , against the Druggies, I was given a free yoyo. I'm all a tremble. What will it be today?
  16. Well that idea has a certain appeal, however, I'll stick with you Red as I'm hoping you're not of the kiss and tell variety.
  17. Now that you're in an obliging "pro bono" mood Red, I have a few matters that need tidying up by a lawyer of high repute.
  18. Now don't go fogging up my rose coloured glasses Age.
  19. Hurling might be a more appropriate alternative Maze.
  20. Now there's a thought Ernie. Thanks!!! If we lose tonight I might use a red herring to thrash the maid.
  21. There's been a lot of gloom on Demonland of late. Although it must be said that even at the best of times, there is always a healthy miasma of despair hovering around the place. Comes with supporting the Dees I suppose. And yes … I sat through two shockers this year and was ready to chew my own hand off. I did no such thing obviously and contented myself by giving the maid a jolly good thrashing. Nonetheless onward and upward! Team sport is a strange beast and it only takes one special moment to turn zeroes into heroes. Who will produce that memorable momentum changing moment tonight? Perhaps Frosty will outmuscle Buddy in a one on one and then break away..... take a bounce or two and ….. kick a raking goal!!!!
  22. Have the commos finally vacated?
  23. 1. Just not good enough 2. I don’t usually complain about umpiring but that was a confusing, inconsistent and sub standard effort
