Some here may recall his Dad's debut game at the 'G' as being distinctly inauspicious as memory serves us. Do recall the rather 'comical' goal square incident, involving a very junior and anxious Wiz hand balling into the back of an unaware Garry Lyon in the goal square. After the officiating umpire had stopped play. He was allowed to take his kick so averted the ignominy of opponent supporters' mirth. Tim Lamb's assessment of Kobe's abilities during his interview on the live telecast was pretty spot on, his defensive game was basically sound but he has much work to do on his offensive game. His performance in the seconds practice game reflected that, as noted by some of DL's more prescient observers. This may be wishful thinking through RCG's, but there is something reminiscent in Kobe's on field actions that resemble the early tentative steps of his father. Whether that Farmer 'mystique' gets further opportunity and be allowed to establish and grow is at this stage in the laps of the footy gods.

According to these soothsayers is 8thbourne (at best) enough or is Goody already Gawn?

Agreed on that performance can now see why Lockart was dropped last season way too many turnover balls or 50/50s at best.

This thread may be running hot like the Tigs B team, but the the Dees Z team performance is as about as cold as Ice Station Zebra. Warming up ever so slightly. Nice pair Toby Bedford!

oops!

DL administrators obviously using the opportunity for some 'practice' too! Game day thread closed just like Joseph-Ignace Guillotin designed. Second half was encouraging, especially the forward fifty entries which were much more cohesive and better executed. Midfield and defence also appeared to 'click'.

Kade Chandler's miracle resurrection continues! Messiah like he has rolled back the stone and arisen from the long term injury list. Now added him to the Surprise packet list!

Decision making and execution of basic footy skills? (So 2019) Tiggers game plan simply straight out of jonathan livingston seagull, patiently await delivery of football as the other mob will definitely turn it over. I know its an inconsequential practice game rant # ?

True 58er. But it is the dworships' 30th Wedding Anniversary! Just wishing to respectfully suggest an upgrade to their weekend experience.

What’s for breakfast?

Visited Tassie on a $40 flight Moorabbin to Launceston in a Cessna once. Arrived at the airfield which was over 20 km from town. Most of the savings got used up a in a taxi trip! But the silver lining was the strictly old school driver when asked about a place to stay, dropped your correspondent off at a classic old pub in the centre of town. Upstairs were rather rustic rooms with high ceilings and large windows with sashes and weights overlooking the main street below. Bathroom and toilets were communal of course. As was the TV lounge, with some comfy old club lounge chairs to sit in. There was plenty of company in there too, luckily more akin to Alice’s Restaurant than Deliverance! So if jumping in the time machine appeals to you and Mrs DW perhaps an establishment like the Batman Fawkner Inn may cater to your viewing needs.

NT 8:00am sharp. Early birds only ?!

Love to be there for the season opener NSFM. Sadly the reality bus is broken down in Neeld’s garage so travel is off. But will be cheering at a square box. Intend on ‘dismantling’ a chilled Guinness to celebrate the Demons delivering in darts against the desperate dockers.

Just keep a sharp lookout for the trolls and wear your face mask. All will be well.

SP (book this in) Really stepping out on a limb here. After some careful consideration of the coffee grounds. Toby Bedford "outside run and creativity is the new imperative" SG WB (Jack Watts Perpetual Trophy) To be closely contested between two already 'popular' crowd favourites on the DL boards. J. Milkshake and Gussyshaw

Given the available evidence that may be a valid scientific insight. According Newton’s Third Law of Motion ‘For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction’ As he bestrode Earth he has created space for others hence Angus Air. Which may explain the praise of almost mythic proportion some posters ascribe to Comet Noir’s appearance at Casey Fields. Majak it appears is a force of nature to be reckoned with.

A glimmer of the old master’s prose returns to be snuffed out some sub-shakespearean pessimism. Where is the optimism of younger men, surely the Sun also rises?

two words come to mind physicality and vigour...

Correct OD, currently down in Chairman Dan’s Greater Victoria ‘enjoying’ NT border shutdown and the lockdown. Top dees win has boosted the feeling of solidarity with the local chapter of the DL fraternity fortunately.

Demon sheilas’s side have-indomitable spirit and will to win in spades. Can it be bottled and intravenously drip feed to the blokes?

Was that the DL ‘drone’ mysteriously hovering high above the goal mouth? If so we await the release of some bird’s eye downfield covert footage! Strictly ? of course...

So a pandemic of highly contagious panic has now set in? The faith healers have appeared. It will be a relief when the vaccine is released.
