monoccular

But not to get us there?? Gil already has his "fairytale return of the WADA victims" speech ready....no way they will lose today.

14 Melbourne FC AFL listed players could be the true explanation.

Ian sure Gil will dream up a solution on the run - maybe when asked a question about it on radio? And IF the teams were EssInject and another, he would no doubt give them the nod "because they have been so hardly done by, and all footy fans are sure to welcome them back"! ? They won't be even one percent more pi55ed off than most long suffering supporters ?

Sounds like they have some demons to exorcise.

Save us the agony ? OMG you must be about the only optimist on this site.

The only possible consolation is that Buckleymaybe saved Seriously what a bitterly disappointing club we follow. Everything to play for, and deliver nothing. Time and time again.

What a pack of teasers. I sm done with them.

Hamstring, done for the day (at least).

At least we can't get further behind during the break ?

FMD, no FMY! What has Jesse done to deserve this? I had, briefly, thought that the Norm Smith curse had been exorcised but clearly it has not.

The Einsteins at AFL HQ did worse when we played the Dogs in the pink lady match a few years back - put the maggots in pink and in the view of many, confusion may well gave cost us the game.

We haven't been told just what injury he has (and I don't mind that by the way) If it is bony my understanding is that hyperbaric O2 wouldn't help much but it could were it soft tissue such as scar tissue. Happy to be corrected though by anyone with greater knowledge

My thoughts too along those lines, but really, what do we know? The said coaching team obviously have their own thoughts, almost certainly with more knowledge and understanding of his and the team's needs and capabilities than any of us have.

Interesting that, if this is a serious concern, that Keilty gets the emergency slot ahead of Frost. I missed a couple of games before he was dropped.....was he that bad? By some accounts he was ok last weekend at Casey. True....the game is played on grass, not paper.

Performance?

So, they want.......? I want Kelly, Martin, Lever, Ben Brown (subject to a haircut). Can we please have them all.

Adelaide are smart enough, unlike Ross Joyner of a couple of years back, to flirt with form. Nobody wants to lose on the eve of finals. Just imagine how awful (and boring) that lot would have been under their current coach.

Source? Sauce? What sort of sauce? And I guess Gillon would be fully on board (and maybe offering some gentle persuasion) as the poor Druggies were so hardly done by. Source? Were R and M veterans, and if so would their departure free up quite so much?

You saw the Twist??

at last some sanity

As I hav said before.....just do it. And do it well. I don't give a brass razoo who else gets there (hope Druggies don't) and who we play.....just win FCS.

He needs to have a long casual chat with Jesse to sort out about personal issues and how they impact on their footy. It has taken Jesse a while to produce his best but he sure did on Sunday.

But we never seem to get them even when they are there. And, were the maggots consistent, Angus could have got one with the final mark of the match - contact after the mark (would have been soft but was there by the book).

FCS (i) get there (ii) beat whoever comes at us One step at a time. This is all the type of cr@p I heard around round 20 last year.

Barrie. Just as well that Collingwood supporters, players and staff are illiterate - they still won't know by next weekend !
