    Does anyone know what Davey's injury is? He has had a few leg injuries over the last 3 years. Made a spelling mistake thought I had better correct it before BH got on to me. No it was not Davey

    Redleg I think Davey is at the end. his injury list is mounting. He has slowed a little and that was his big strength. give him a hard tag and he is useless. I hope I am wrong but I see him spending a lot of time at Casey this year.

    Probably a typo Redleg I am sure you meant to type "when we win"

    That is two that they have stuffed up Redleg!

    I think I heard he is coaching in HK. Probably getting paid 5 times as much as he was in Melbourne. There is one thing the Victory board cannot do. They cannot change the fact that Ernie won 2 flags. It will be a very long time before that is equalled. I suspect long after the current board has been shown the door.

    I don't follow either Redleg, the game frustrates me. I doubt I will ever get keen about soccer, spent too much of my life on AFL. Probably my loss not soccers' The Victory board fasinates me much more than the game.

    I know very little about soccer WJ but they do not appear to have a back line in addition to a hopeless board.

    This is probably not the thread for it but the Melbourne Victory must be close to the worst run Senior club in Australia ( then again the Melbourne tigers might give them a run ) at present. They go through coaches like there is no tomorrow. Sack the coach that has won them 2 flags His replacment is replaced half way through a season. The third and current coach has no contract past this year and starts talking about changing players but may not be there for the next season. They are on their third FD in less than a year. Perhaps it is not the coaching staff that is the problem The board it seems to me should resign on mass and give someone else a go as they are obviously not up to the job.

    Sorry wyl but I cannot let this go. We played Hawthorn and Geelong after the Darwin game. I hope you are not suggesting the reason we got pumped in both those games was because we went to Darwin. We were just beaten by far better sides. It is just an excuse to say the reason we got beaten by 30 goals was because we went darwin. I just do not buy it.

    Don't hold your breath Unfortunately I think we will have to do this sort of thing for a number of years yet.

    I did not mean the humidity in Perth. Vic clubs complain about the travel to WA being upsetting. But it does not seem to worry the WA clubs much. We use it as an excuse for poor results in WA or the week after a game in Perth. When the truth is we have not been all that good of a team and probably would have lost the game if it was played anywhere. Our game in Darwin is on July 21 I have been up there a few times at that time for the Darwin Cup ( driest time of the year ) it is not bad. If we manage it well the problems are low and we get lots of green stuff.

    I simply do not believe that, it is like the travel bleating. The two WA sides travel every other week. When they have good sides they win consistantly and when they have poor sides they lose. Manage the game etc well and we will have a limited problem No big deal PS wyl you must have a life as poor as mine. what the hell are we doing discussing a July 21 Darwin game on the 11 Jan? We both need to get lives.

    We need to get over this, we need the money so it is put up and shut up for mine.

    After caning him mercerlessly I have to admit Clarke has been very good in this game. Earned his spot this week. Great Game.

    Soccer never ceases to amaze me. Victory have sacked their second coach in less than 12 months. Sacking Ernie amazed me after he won the Flag twice. The management at the Victory is something else. Who would want the job even when you win flags they give you the boot.

    Not for me I am afraid. Hit and giggle stuff I have no interest in who wins. This morning I went straight over the results in the Paper.

    Another brilliant performance from the Captain! 31 and 1 Glad we are not depending on him to get us out of a hole. I doubt he will make it to the next ashes series Second rate player from NSW

    The look in my Granddaughters eyes at 7.30 was way to good to be beaten by anything that happened later in the day. Thank god for little children they give a big reason for being.
