monoccular

SJ - saying they were “average” implies that can be worse as well as better and that display was around the middle of the range. IMVHO Saturday set just about a new nadir .... no positive “leadership moment” comes to mind. Even as our co captain limped over to toss the coin my heart sank.

Hopefully the reality check we needed to have (sort of paraphrasing Paul Keating) I’m hoping for though not necessarily expecting a big response.

If you think that reduced runners on ground time explains our total chaos then younoerhaos think the tooth fairy will come and help our rebuild. And I did not see any leaders, not one for one minute, on Saturday. My senile mind may be playing games but wasn’t Geelong really struggling after a month or so at the start of their drought breaking year ?2007 with calls for Bomma’s head until they found something* and clicked *was a certain subsequently banned sports experimenter with them then, or somehow involved?

I guess that shows that there are rolls, rôles, and of course Rolls (for some of use). I am certain that AFLHQ will be able to spin out some reason that justifies their inconsistency.

Lewis would have been yet another witches hat. May for Frost. Preuss maybe but for whom? Some are canning Weed but no worse than many others and is the future. Jones and a Viney yet again brought back underprepared but that is now past history and should get another game.

Not for long ???

And blooywell deserved.

Just can not afford to go into a game as overwhelming favourite Far too confident and cocky at quarter time

Off track may be part of the issue. The Met off track that is. Imagine the prospect instead of a crowded train after the game, a bus ... how many will be needed and how many will be available. I know people who did not come for that reason.

Port got 4 that quarter ?

Moon. I am surprised that you are not too embarrassed to admit watching him.

So now Collingwood have choked in the dying moments of their last 2 big games at the G. Eddie must be happy. ?

Howe did that Happen?

Last night I enjoyed watching on TV, with ABC GRANDSTAND audio. Unfortunately tonight they have that annoying Curly Underwear ... inane commentary and an absolutely awful grating voice. (Some may say I am sexist but it is voiceist only).

Every round please.

Which position? CHF? Didn’t see him named in the 22. Maybe Christian suspended him.

We will come down hard on gut punches and off ball incidents. Bloody hypocrites.

Not I. Enlighten us please.

I managed to find ABC GRANDSTAND which tonight was right in time with the game, so avoided Broooce (after the first few minutes).

Prancer really is very ordinary one on one for someone so “speshhall”.

Rather like Druggies v Filth ANZAC, this became “traditional” after about one or two years.

Really?

steve - maybe you missed the irony there?

And a Coleman?

IF not, and if. Regardless, trash journalism. That is a very easy question. A doctor's prime responsibility is always to his patient. That is why I remain absolutely astounded that AHPRA (the "national medical board" in effect) turned a blind eye to Dr Reid during the Essendrug saga. Astounding head in sand effort in my view.
