It just sorts the men from the boys.

Not much you can do about it when there are 17 teams. And can't see a reason it would be kept when we are back to an even number of teams next year.

Good conclusion Nasher

We better come close. It's our grand final.

What happened to this...

It's no 145. Lift your game.

He seems to be a very clever coach does Todd. And has gained experience and two successful clubs. Hopefully he can have a big impact with our kids. I don't think he will ever take a senior gig though, with young Jack coming through.

Good job rpfc. I am proud of you. While we are grandstanding, I was in the top 1% of the world for finger painting in kindergarten.

And earlier you stated that you didnt think you were being too sensitive. Jeepers creepers. You dont have anything to prove. Its a footy forum, enjoy your footy here. I, personally, appreciate your passion to the Dees. But really, if a poster doesnt agree with you, or replies in a way you feel is condescending, get over it and move on. Writing a reply like this would not help your cause, whatever that may be.

Not sure if this has been mentioned but this was a trip organised by vice president Guy Jalland, an executive at Consolidated Press Holdings (packer empire, channel 10 part owner). I am pretty sure this was an exercise in showing off to some of our key youngsters our friends in high places.

Petterd played Round 1, 2011. Rushed back from a minor hamstring...but wasn't he the sub and showed be was fit on the day? Yep...gotcha. Frawley, is our most important player. He could have played round 1 also but was given an extra week. Not my definition of rushed back. Morton had a finger injury so didn't really lose fitness. Came back as the sub, perfectly fine decision. Imagine if we play Scully before round 12. You would probably call that rushing him back too.

I have noticed that more often then not he seems to want to just get on with the job after kicking a goal. Generally with his trademark strut with the guns on show.

Short answer - no. Long answer - nope. Too many shots from the boundary, and usually on the wrong side for a left footer.

That's the thing Clint, he improved in all those aspects in the one quarter he had a chance to.

Agree. His intensity was up and looked like he wanted to hunt the footy more than usual. Stuck some tackles which usually slip and put himself in good positions. Should hold his spot against the Eagles in my opinion.

6 - Moloney 5 - Trengove 4 - Sylvia 3 - Bail 2 - Jamar 1 - Grimes

No issue with that. No point him getting squashed by KHunt and getting injured now.

I dont buy it. How often have GC played a full game in HUMID conditions?

Wouldn't that rule be the same for both teams then?

Have not scored for 10 minutes against the worst side in the comp. I would love for once when we get in front to actually keep trying to extend the lead, instead of just going through the motions and trying not to lose.

Looking forward to Crawfords next article about Hawthorns culture. Bit worse than a drink or three.

What an absolutely crap article

Ablett has been withdrawn from the Suns squad for tomorrow

No.

Injuries have taken their toll. Thats the only viable reason I lost this week, cause my team is clearly the best.
