Bitter but optimistic

N.Jones. Was there for 4 quarters J.Watts. Consistent. A target. Usual good disposal. McDonald. Pace and agility in defence and no shockers, Viney. Tough at the contest as usual. Gawn. Gave us plenty and had impact around the ground. Wagner. Very impressive. Attacking. Takes the game on and backs himself. Armchair view.

This could be a season defining win. It was a win we had to have to be credible. THE DEMONS ARE BACK!!!

If we don't win this one you can forget all the hype and pump ups and recruiting etc etc. If we don't win this one - season over. If we don't win this one we are a terminally [censored] up club.

Bastards all of you!!

Well good evening all! Must say I should be feeling fine. I am in a comfortable warm bed. Big telly on the wall and some delightful young ladies applying oils etc to my person. OF COURSE I'M NOT WELL.!! Yes picket, your remedy certainly cured the fungal infection! In fact the fungi rats deserted the bitter ship at the first sniff of your panacea. Unfortunately SKIN ( my skin) followed immediately. I am currently enjoying the amenity of a major burns unit. When I can walk again, I shall [censored] you picket.

I agree that [censored] up did cost us the game. An unbelievable brainfade. But would I drop him for that one instant of stupidity? No.

Clearly Brayshaw and Jeffy are best 22. If fit they are in. Bugg is one out - so Garlett is first in. Frost for mine is the next out and Brayshaw in. I know that creates height / match up imbalances but [censored] that, we need those two in our best side.

Neither.

I think it is time for moderation Biffen. Doctor Hopping Dick is, I believe, an authority on "holding" - I will defer to his decision.

Notjhing wrong with a good whipping Jesse!

6.Viney - Has become our key indicator - no Viney no Melbourne. 5. Gawn - Took the next step to challenging for AA ruckman 4. Oliver - tough little bastard. Given time Oliver and Viney will cause some serious injuries. 3. Hogan. Great comeback and some very creative work. 2.Jetta - Busted a gut. Courageous. Great anticipation. 1.Henrietta. - He attacks the contest and does terrific one percenters.

Hate to say it but that shitfull brainfade from Watts cost us the game.

Weeds is still a weed picket - if we see him at all it won't be until near season's end. Petracca - I'm tipping in two or three weeks.

"holding the manhood" has a lot to commend it.

Huh???

I wonder how they interpret "holding the man" ?

aka Slobbo.

I'll there were quite a few free kicks paid for pushes in the bun.

It's sad and remarkable how disappointment can change the ingrained habits of a lifetime RTG.

Grapes are useless in any other form Mable.

Spot on about Denham RTG ( as you usually are about matters football). Unfortunately, however, the [censored] was correct about our performance against Essendon. You know it may well be the only game they'll win for the year and ... guess against who?? This will stick in my guts like 186.

All that medical stuff above is appropriate. I'm still sans desert boots and the old in between toes fungal infection is playing up again. FMD, I try to lead a moral life but circumstances ... and events ... continually conspire to [censored] me up. And .. as if matters could get worse my GP is pressuring me to undergo a rather ... err ..invasive shall we say test ... FMD - It's enough to drive me to drink.

More a laxative than a spine tingle picket.

I realize you don't mention it picket but I am convinced you are a serious drug abuser!! Now go and get some lessons from my good mate 'luded on how to write serious, clear and precise prose.

Hey! Where's the picket dream team?
