monoccular

And let's not celebrate if he is out. We have done this so often over the last decade......celebrate when we bloody we'll win, and not before !!

I agree the Druggers loss was a disgrace - they were down down down for the count: did we take them too easy? Sure we kicked appallingly and played their FF into form. But it was a bitter pill to swallow (so to speak), a real jab in the arm (so to speak). Winning s week would be massive for many reasons. How long since we have beaten Norf? How long since we won two on the trot? Go Dees!

Interesting - and surprising to me - 14 tackles in 15 games, average 0.9. I reall thought that I had seen more tackles than that. Certainly a lot more contests, both marking and jostling his opponent(s) out of the play. Still 105 marks, average 7 is great.

Gold medal, Choke!!!

Will the AFL set up a full investigation into tanking at Brisbane - after all Connolly was merely an assistant coach who had a joke with his mates. Of course, the AFL with their stated aims of upholding the integrity of the game must act on this one too......not. You forgot the resurrection of Dunn and Jetta, now integral cogs in our back line. Interesting re the censorship. [censored] is ok but a noun describing one who tosses something is not. Nor is the common nickname for Richard. Quite obviously the censorship is being run by the umpires - blatant inconsistency at all levels, and a total absence of common sense.

* except Fletcher of course Another way of looking at it is ...... we may have forced them to suffer longer ??

The resurrection of both Dunn's and Jetta's careers last year showed firstly great dedication and hard work on both their parts, but also depended on Roos showing faith and presumingly giving them defined roles A great job all round. Well done. PS I would have Salem back as HBF as soon as he reaches the requisite level of match fitness possibly at the expense of Grimes.

I have emailed FOXTEL with my complaint. The really sad thing is that I feel that the three clowns in the box actually thought that they were being funny !!

The whole Jackson interview on 3AW was pure class - and how he very politely but definitively put down Caro on several occasions was just beautiful to hear. What a class act he is - we are so privileged to have him at our club.

Just heard that Salem was named in the better players at Casey, so if he is deemed back to full match fitness must be considered. If Fitz is ever to play again for a specific purpose (Brown) surely this is the week. Forget the tunnelball and remember his great job v Footscray.

OMG - hasn't been seen anywhere remotely near a certain Mr Danks I hope :-((((In all seriousness, he does look as if he has taken that big extra step since the Kardinia Park game. Go Max.

Which has been bloody hard when he has been unable to run most of the year.

Can anyone tell me is there an option in the delayed replay to get "normal" commentary? Even Derwaayne would be better, which is saying something.

But I don't think there is the option for the delayed replay. Bloody disgusting. Have emailed Fox - no doubt will get the usual corporate 'your valuable input..... etc ' crap. If Salem got through the VFL today fit and well I guess he could threaten Grimes though he did OK yesterday I thought.

How did Salem run out the game?

I must be blind or stupid but it looked to me like some sort of aeroplane display, not any sort of indigenous dance. Whatever, it went on for about a microsecond.

for a reason?

Just watching the Fox replay now. Absolutely disgusting commentary by Eddie, Shaw and that non-entity 'comedian' ?Strauney?? Just plain barracking - we, we ,we, they, they, they !!!! Ruins any opportunity to fully enjoy the victory. What a disgrace. PS: still in first quarter - will maybe enjoy their grief at the end.

What is a "cakewalk", pies (mixing my bakery metaphors)?

Actually I thought that the contrast of the Eagles and Suns jumpers was fantastic. Very clear who was who. There is certainly never any reason for either to wear a clash strip when playing each other. And yes, the maggots certainly got WCE up to the line.

What an absolutely fantastic interview Without wanting to jinx him, I suspect he has really "turned the corner" Go Jack Basic physics: What was once merely Volts, potential, is now becoming Watts, output!!

That was way way back when we were a dominant club.....remember? When we had a guy called Norm Smith coaching us - had a bit of success as I recall

From the outlook we may all be at the snow without even marooned in Melbourne without hopping in the Range Rover !! Pity we left the skis up at Buller though :-)

We must be talking about a different incident I believe.

How the hell did we beat Richmond (and Geelong and Fottascray for that matter) yet succumbed to the Druggies and Saints x2??? Well done Tigers tonight. They applied pressure and rattled the arrogant Hawks
