Bitter but optimistic

Oh yea of little faith! I shall be be sleeping in a 5 star park bench. ................As for SpecialRobert .... No chance of such riff raff being admitted to my accommodations. However, I shall probably employ one .... or perhaps two ( depending on the result) casual ..... err "maids" to ensure my comforts.

Jeez he looks fit and relaxed.

Not certain what Rivers' injury status is Dub but he must be doubtful.

It's a [censored] of a time and a [censored] of a night but ..... as Jaded mentions above that's the joy of a reserved seat. However, the maid is delirious as I shall not be returning to The Manor post game - It's too late and I shall be joyously [censored].

Our forward structure was certainly poor last night. I remember one occasion near the goal square when 3 Carlton defenders were in the picture and not a forward to be seen.

I agree. It is very offensive to maggots.

I mostly agree with this. BBB was a target on a number of occasions last night but he wasn't clunking them. I don't recall seeing Picket being thereabouts and attempting to crumb these spillages . Similar with Spargo. I don't recall seeing much of him around the goals either. I know small forwards can be terrific tackling/defensive weapons but they should also be aiming to hit the scoreboard and crumbing off the big blokes is a major source of opportunity.

Not quite that simple.

As usual, the commentary is [censored]. Apparently only one team on the ground.

I couldn't find Uncle Bitter anywhere!

I pondered that very question prior to posting Mazer. I actually thought the best option was to leave the above mentioned preposition out, however, I didn't want to risk offending picket's delicate sensibilities.

Maybe you could also squeeze in Abigail from Number 96 picket!

Good point Wells! It will take the Dickmond and filth supporters a while to catch on. The iPhone/android dealers around Punt road and Smith Street will make a fortune. They may even do as well as the dealers of other ...err .... products , in the those areas . Of course the orthodontists will remain miles in front.

Terrific to see Tomlinson getting a run. I'll be interested to see both how much time he gets and how he goes!

Good thinking Fire, but I don't think it would work, as all the Filth sheilas seem to have the same teef knocked out.

“He’s got every attribute that you need to be a star at AFL level,” Cooney said of Andrew. Yeah right! He's got every attribute except about 20 kg of muscle!

Well well, here's a first!! I'm actually going to agree with Nev. To see the wasted talent of Jurrah in our current team would fill the "G!

Thanks picket! I know you don't smoke - too busy boozing. It's fortunate training is in the am.

Fabulous work again picket! How was Weed today?

Quite right Dr. That backline you just noted is pretty handy. However, I'd love to see Tomlinson get a crack !

Picket, do reckon this kid will push ahead of Weid in the pecking order? Or is it too early to make that assessment? Another terrific report BTW !!!!!!!

You are a bad man picket!

Both your statements are correct dc , however, the order can be reversed.

Arrh Biffen! You have this wonderfully arcane knowledge of music. Pity you have no friends to share it with!!!!!

VFA footy was huge in the 70's and Freddie was one of its biggest characters - and a bloody good footballer. Fred was no health freak though and was caught on camera scoffing some pre game nourishment - a four n twenty!!!! Fred didn't mind an ale either. A genuine larger than life character was Freddie - sad news!!
