old dee

Sounds like us a few years back when we forced to pay 95% of the cap to a VFL quality list.

So we would still not kick out to the right!

LJ played with a very good team around him in his time at the MFC. That is not the case now, it does make a big difference to young players.

Oh not the dreaded 426. That means at least 6 but throw in 4 to keep the supporters happy in the short term.

LJ might be finding he is not surrounded by good players like he was at the MFC. He might have to do a lot more himself without the feed he was used to previously.

Kicked 2 goals one yesterday

I see the Weid kicked 2 goals 1 yesterday.

Not even for a 30 year old CF. I would be thinking 4 weeks actually. Calf injuries are one of the hardest to heal.

I was referring to the support for the ladies.

People have to get used to the fact that we are not Pies or Tigers supporters. Dare I say it but we are more reserved. I was in the southern stand which probably had the bulk of dogs supporters and I thought the response was good. The other element is the GF was a long time ago in a football sense. I suspect had it been the previous weekend the response would have been bigger. While on the subject of response I thought the attendance of Dees supporters was good we were approaching 35k of the 48. Had the dogs supporters got similar numbers it would have been 70k. To the commentators get off our backs it was the dogs who didn’t turn up. My pie friends were telling me after Friday night it is a nightmare getting home I am sure that had an effect as well. If had been May with all the negativity I would have stated home.

They had an " easy one" today how did that go?

Good grief we just beat a potential top 4 side by 8 goals and people want multi changes. Now matter how good a team is there will be members who have average games. The only changes IMO will be Kossie out if suspended and perhaps Viney back in.

Not sure what you were on last night but stop.

But that is Carlton!

If he isn't out it will mean the AFL campaign against these hits is BS. Let's see if their bite is up to their bark.

I agree saw little last night but it is one game I doubt he will be dropped with kossie out next week.

Does anyone know why the game was at Skinner reserve and not the western oval?

I think you will find Gary was burnt during his early career at Lara and people wondered would he make it back. He did in aces.

They are not within a country mile of Lou and Jack etc.

I actually think the dogs have a good team they just ran into a better one last night. I would be surprised if they don't finish in the top 6.

Yes they didn't have anywhere near the fitness of modern players. One reason they were part time players.

And they wonder why ratings are low. It is like the game last night with all the [censored] before the start. Isn't the game enough?

The great Gary Dempsey

It was a very good night WCW. Come winter it will be sadly TV for me. Good timing I am off to NZ for the next game.

Me too, I thought there was too much hype last night. It seems like in the 21st century the game isn’t enough.
