monoccular

You could easily have been speaking of Thursday night too. Maybe give the young tall a third year if he headed in the right direction.

No explanation needed. Bleeding obvious.

Inspirational daydream: Hawks and Saints look at home on Tasmania, as do North. A triple merger would create a very competitive team and consolidate the competition, and no bloody bye, and no dilution of the talent pool. Won’t happen of course 🙄🤗

I suspect that you "know nothing", Schultz JVR and Weed are poles apart - JVR shows more aggression in every contest than (great guy) Weed did ever.

Didn't they just get some ridiculous amount for a new scoreboard - just as cancer funding was severely slashed?

What an absolute sooker of a person and no respect for opponents. Hope it bites him in the bum. GO GC$ next week.

Now 2.13.25 to 11.2.68 I guess when we complain about our kicking for goal we need to think of Fred, at home The SEN commentators mention at some stage that he didn't look right .... Scott of course will say he didn't see the incident. Please explain, Geelong. Please GC$ knock them off up in Darwin.

Not only the decision to complain about, but at their home ground as well. ❤️

What a sick (and some would say corrupt) organisation is the AFL and their MRO. Kozzi got time for nothing different to Newman, and every week some opposition thug takes advantage of the league's pathetic weak adjudication of deliberate gut punches. Wait for one of our guys to do it - "we need to stamp out this behaviour".

As I said 20+ minutes ago Port need another goal soon.

Hawkins has been having another rest this week "Preferred club" you surely mean

Port really need another goal soon.

3 quick goals to the maggots.

McAdam will play when he is fully fit and well. Needs to show a full game at Casey first. Good news from the derailed captain’s run report was that Melksham and Salem were on the track early and apparently going hard in contest one on one. Maybe round 11 or 12?

Maybe the first quarter slow start was more mental than physical. They just didn’t look sharp at all. And, most of the night nothing we tried seemed to come off … yes, fumbles but also “unlucky” bounces. The two “deliberate oob” were just appalling decisions. The first had the player tackled in the process of kicking so way off balance, the second just clueless. Then to rub it in, Carlton did several in the last half when they started to struggle and none were paid.

Maybe they are trying to hide him? I notice Kolt is named in the middle - maybe this is for "learnings" as well as for desperate needs? IF he does learn midfield skills it would add a very useful string to his HFF bow.

JVR is still learning the game but has the necessary agro and drive.

Will that Carlton player who elbowed ANB in the face get cited? Is there a suggestion of corruption in the AFL and MRO? Both questions could be answered concurrently. Also I think it was ANB again who received a gut punch after disposing on the outer wing in Q2 - any suggestion by the commentariat that this should be cited, or did they think it was "just. a love tap"?

They certainly don't seem to even try to dispel those suggestions. But then, Carlton are still in the race, so, as GWBush infamously said "mission accomplished".

Let's see who does what at Casey. No glaringly obvious changes to me IMO Billings is still NQR decision making and disposal - does AMW fill his role? McAdam is an interesting one - pulled out sick I believe early in Casey's last game. Has he recovered and can he play a full and good game Saturday? PS - wwsw ⬆️ prodded my tired and frustrated brain - Chandler is looking NQR too. Is he fit or carrying an injury? McAdam could fill that role if fit.

Once again we came out and could not hit a disposal in the first quarter. This is becoming a habit. Is there an explanation? Very proud of the comeback but just a bit too late. As always incredibly thankful to the three of you for your (usually) calm and reasoned analysis.

We all know that the AFL are total hypocrites about the head being sacrosanct. They pick and choose when to crack down. They are as disgraceful an organisation as FIFA and the IOC.

Appalling clear bias, NB #22 who always screws us, but we did lose it in the first quarter.

But surely the mid season draft is surely different than the national and rookie drafts. I would see it as absolutely role / needs driven
