  1. It wasn't sent to the club. It was sent to SEN. To get media attention. Mario from Doncaster in other colours. Or maybe Mario is an SEN character.
  2. I get the emotion AF. And congrats too by the way. Viney was just an absolute Trojan today. So many times he was the guy putting his head down to wrench the ball out of hands, and forging through the congestion to get it out and free to a teammate. Just loved his game, so many times, from high up in the stand. As for Jones - to me it was a story of 2 parts. The first qtr he had at least 3 very frustrating turnovers by foot, direct to opponents. Geez it was infuriating when we were on a burst and suddenly Jones managed to cough it up. But then he got slowly back into the game. And from then on, if you have a look at anyone under pressure when Jones is in the vicinity, who do they look to when they need to dish it off? Jones. They always go back or sideways to Jones, whether he's in the clear or under pressure, because Jones is thier get-out clause. He is their hero. It happened several times today. They look to Jones because he above all will do something to get them out of the poo, quickly and usually effectively. Jones willingly takes on the pressure situations that our other players can't deal with And that's why I think they vote him as one of their leaders.
  3. Agree. But I don't see any real difference to the peanuts who boo'd Frawley. Clubs change their allegiance, and players do too. Unfortunately you can't legislate for good manners or mutual respect in society, and especially at a footy game.
  4. Really hoping I'll want to watch the replay when I get home!
  5. That just looked like the efforts of headless rabble. Kick it to a friggin target.
  6. Great to see the red and blue colours far outnumbering the yellow and gold on my train, from what I can see. Passing through the heartland at Glenferrie soon. I'll try to arrange a carriage door malfunction.
  7. Almost as bad as winning the Brownlow before you play a stinker in the GF following Saturday. That's a lay down misere.
  8. I agree with that he credit being given to our better players today. But the forward line credits usually seem to miss Hannan. Although he was a bit patchy, I thought he had a really good game overall, for his level of experience. A couple of strong marks and goals in the second half really helped settle is and consolidate our lead. He shows a strong competitive spirit and attacks a contest with everything you want to see in a young player.
  9. Did a super job today. Some of his leaps in the ruck actually gave him a height advantage over taller oppo rucks. Saw him spreading fast from the contest too. He was very mobile today. Great job Cam.
  10. Bullshite free HTB against McDonald led to that Daniher goal. Umpires trying to even up the game
  11. Just looking at the lineup, and geez we look thin for forward options. It will be interesting to see the number of rebounds off defensive fifty that the bummers can manage. Our midfield will need to be on full alert for that and send it into forward fifty with very high accuracy.
  12. Experiencing the same but I'm stuck between stations. Still short of Camberwell. Bugger of a time for a train fault.
  13. I just wasted a whole 5 mins of my life.
  14. Agree. Weid is still very young. Even at Casey he's not been a standout player yet. Just a very good young and developing prospect. I'd like to see him build his game, his fitness and his body at Casey for an extended period.
  15. Hannan has made a big improvement already since last week.
  16. Gotta feel sorry for T Smith. Thought he would surely be given more games while Hoges is on the sideline.
  17. It's something about the Carlton Banner. Or the Crows Banner. Or a coconut banana. Something like that I think.
  18. Weid was so absent in the first half that I had to check the on line game commentary to see if he had been withdrawn or injured. Unfortunately a game to forget for him when we were so short of forwards - exacerbated by the loss of Watts to help fill the unfillable Gawn gap.
  19. Was handed my scarf by the famous Saty outside the ground. 'Just doin' me other job mate' he says.
  20. Same with me, some joint in Swan St, along with some Blues and Dees friends, then onto the game. For once this game time works well for me. Will I recognise you by the turban?
  21. Wow. So much of nothing on this thread, then the dam bursts. its a bit like Sydney leading into the Mardi Gras. Or so I'm told.
