Fork 'em

They coulda done without the rules IMO . The rest is fine .

When you can read the paper in 10 minutes.

Definately a keeper . Like his size for a mid and the way he goes about it.

I also remember that the feeling I couldn't fault their endeavor but just weren't good enough . Like in the power play that I refered to earlier , there were hard contests from our player throughout but the ball was just forced forward by the Dawks to finally pop out loose to Platten .

When all is said and done , Jamie must kick more goals .

Moorabin was the only place I saw Robbie Flower pinged for holding the ball , couldn't quite believe my eyes . I ended up putting it down to him being shin deep in mud .

I remember the Melbourne fans being in their element until the game started . Who could forget Batgirl . I remember the Ben Johnson race and a couple of peices of play . Our first goal by Healey late in the 1st and a display of power football by the Dawks that forced the ball from the backline into their forwardline resulting in a goal to Platten . I knew our day was over at that moment . I also remember the relentless cry by a toothless Dawk supporter , " Carn ... the ... Horrible ... HAAAWWWKS ! " , drove me insane he did . I think I've managed to surpress 98% of the actual game .

His missus is HOT .

The Ox's '94 season was spectacular and the Carey comparisons are relevant IMO but after just recently reading his book "All bets are off."I wonder about his committment to the club even if he managed to stay fit . The punt was 1st and the club that payed his wages a distant 2nd .

I never saw Barassi either but was bought up watching Flower who who'd just purr with his awesomness . Who wouldn't want him running through the middle of the ground now like the opening sequence in this clip . As was stated above , was playing the modern game 30 years ago .

Flower by a mile . B)

Give 'im a break fellas . No wonder he wants to hang out here as the poor saps are bleeding profusely over at Saintsational . Their game plan is as boring as bat5hit , their captain has been outted as an overrated flat track bully , the window has slammed shut and their "destiny" of winning 2 flags was only a dream .

Wonder what malthouse thinks after the Milne incident ?

I've read similar in other threads but can't remember an example , can someone provide 1 or 2 ?

The Cats , Dogs and the Aints are done boy's . Time for the Demons to step up , finals next year , contenders the year after .

The Pies were the hunters this year and no doubt driven for flag success after being around the mark for a few years now . We did see that when they are the hunted as by us in our 2 meetings they are vunerable . Be interesting to see if they can keep the intensity/disipline up with a Premiership medallion safely tucked away in their back pockets. Hawthorn couldn't .

I've seen Clarkeson and Sheedy on the sidelines coaching , Maybe even Malthouse this year ... Not sure .

Pfft ..... But thats JMO .

Abit of inside info . Lowe gave Kossie his jumper because the kid idolised him and was struggling mentally at the time due to a persistant back injury that was keeping him from the field while Reiwoldts star was rising rapidly .

Twiggy Dunns mark and goal is remembered , the rest , not so much . Goddards mark was the greatest in a GF IMO though , for timing , height and to put them in front late .

No way , likely to knockout our proper players with his stupidity . Couldn't believe how dumb he was today , then again he was true to form .

I think if they had've won it would've . Now ... Dunno .

That the mindnumbing "Saints footy" is officially dead. Couldn't stand watching the Swans play when they were winning and can't stand watching the Aints play their version under Lyon. He's had 3 chances with their stop start stoppage game and failed each time. I look forward to watching the fast flowing stuff that the game is evolving into.

Big call on Morton being our Goddard . Morton will never have the grunt of Goddard or the Elite kicking skill .

Gotta be the dopiest footballer playing the game . From knocking out Reiwoldt in the Prelim to his late hit causing a head clash with a teammate today .
