Sam Weideman
I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Not one dimensional in my opinion - ready to handball, goal assist, bit of reasonable ruck work. I suppose we will have to agree to disagree. Not every young KPF can burst onto the scene like David Schwartz, Wayne Carey or Dermott Brereton. I am happy to see him as a work in progress. I hope he keeps well away from this "supporter" site.

Round 16 Non MFC Games
OMG Trengove kicked into Hawkins man on the mark - goal. Clanger +++ But a great win over the arrogant Cats.

Round 16 Non MFC Games
Geez Gablett is a whinier ... throw the ball, then his team mate kicked it away. Why not 50 as per regulations?

Another goalfest at marvelous Marvel.

Round 16 Non MFC Games
They actually wouldn’t give a stuff, provided the sponsors pay them big bucks so that they can get paid big bucks. It is no longer a game for the people: it is a business money game for the likes of Gillon.

Casey Demons v Northern Blues - Round 14
Winning is wining even if it is by 13 bloody behinds.

Round 16 Non MFC Games
These sorts of things can happen when administrations allow themselves to become so interspersed with and then dependent upon the gambling industry. Then of course they have to appear to come down on gambling (though meekly enough to allow a banned player to become miraculously available for final$.) Their rule changes to ensure lots of goals (code for advertising opportunities for their $ponsors) having been a dismal failure, close finishes are essential. Like Ethan above, the game I used to love has gone - sold down the drain to the highest bidders. ??????

Casey Demons v Northern Blues - Round 14
Wasn’t the merger plan that Casey follow Melbourne’s game plan to the letter? ? So, all going to plan.

Casey Demons v Northern Blues - Round 14
Do we have a ruckman without Preuss?

Round 16 Non MFC Games
But of course the AFL in their infinite wisdom have ensured that he will be allowed back for the finals. I wonder if he had a few bucks on the Hawks last quarter comeback? Could help him pay his fine.

It's The Preseason Stupid
However I suspect that you may encourage her NOT to change her surname?

Collingwood pretenders??

Round 16 Non MFC Games
This bloody “protected zone” has far too much influence especially when the “offence” has zero influence on the game and the ridiculous and poorly defines running forward for a 50 meter penalty without a set mark confuses everyone. Yet another poorly considered unnecessary rule change. Thanks

Round 16 Non MFC Games
8 goals to half time! So glad the rule changes have made the game more exciting and high scoring. Thanks Shocking, and Gill

PREGAME: Rd 16 vs Carlton
If it was your eyes a certain ? could arrange that, I suspect.

Casey Demons v Northern Blues - Round 14
I really feel for JKH - the senior inquiry list is horrendous, the forward pressure is zero AND he has been playing his heart out and playing well for Casey. Is Goodwin blind or deluded?
-
PREGAME: Rd 16 vs Carlton
Is that a German WW2 Kruzer tank? But re selections -IF Gawn plays and aggravates his injury I will seriously not renew, especially as we recruited Preuss exactly for this contingency and this is a meaningless match as our season is over.
-
Can we please get some small forwards
I agree that Fritsch is a better forward than a beckman, but I wouldn't call him a small forward. Would Jay Lockhart, or JKH fit the rôle? Agreed that a player like Eddie Betts (once in a lifetime player) or our own Jeff Farmer or Wonna (had he stayed fit) is desperately needed.

Salem free to play
May just stood his ground and was also run into by a Lion, so I am rather surprised that Salem wasn't suspended for about 4 years weeks. Ludicrous that Salem was even looked at.
-
Come Whatever MAY
Yeah ... and how did that turn out? Oh ... premierships ... OMG, is that what it is all about? Back to May: the big downer is how he presented to preseason. Maybe he needs another 12 months to get over that. But meanwhile that would leave Jack Viney, who I absolutely love as a player and an on field 'by example leader', but have serious questions as to his overall leadership qualities.

Come Whatever MAY
So, no change then?

Round 15 Non MFC Games
There are absolutely NO easy games for us, though unfortunately there are quite a few for our opponents on the day. ?

Round 15 Non MFC Games
SWYL - actually quite hard to miss them. All pervasive and encouraging what may well already be and certainly will become a big influence on results aka “the integrity of the game”. Look what it has done to cricket: 20/20, 50/50 without any doubt and probably to the “pure form”, tests. And as for these little spot fire bets such as first goal or most possessions - is there any doubt that these are not at least occasionally rigged? I find these ads a total turn off: I have mentioned before that I often change channels or radio stations when they come on and often forget to switch back.
