Fork 'em

Roos are gonna get forkin' stomped now. These boys will want Top spot more than we do.

They often do till Martin pulls their arses from the flames.

We keep hearing our players linked to other clubs sniffing around and then they get signed. I'll tip Trac will be the same. He's often stated that he loves the club and wants to be a one club player. He might command some decent coin but deserves it. Wants to be recognised as a great of the game and I very much doubt he'll get complacent.

Not even if he begged. Took my kids down to watch training back when he was playing for us. Most of the players couldn't have been better with them. Howe however couldn't be bothered giving them the time of day. Far too full of himself for that. Even back then. 3 things I learnt that day that stuck with me. Colin Sylvia and Jack Watts were brilliant with the kids. Howe is a [censored].

I loved the bit in the last quarter when our supporters did that slow MELBOURNE .... MELBOURNE .... MELBOURNE chant. The sound of glory.

100% There'd be a long list of clubs who'd love to knock us off our perch. And if they put on enough pressure we'd crack and fold. Like we've done so many times before. Gotta put that perception to bed.

If any-one squibbed this one it was Cotchin.

Yeah they will, and it won't be because of that. He's got the potential to light the joint up and they know it. Which is why his teammates have gotta back him when the BS starts. Let him and the opposition know he's not alone out there.

Great vision of Pickett. Hadn't seen that angle before. He aint gonna take no sheet that kid. Love it.

One way to find out. Play them and beat them. Same with the rest of the comp. We've inherited top spot before and gone to water when we ran into the top clubs.

They do and I've been to a few games where they've outnumbered ours so ....... And for the record I hate all the other clubs for various reasons.

Goodwin won't be dropping him anytime soon. Always gives 100% and an absolute workhorse. His goal from the boundry on the weekend was a pearler. When ya playing the big boys ya gotta kick them.

Kozzie might not be a sniper but he's got a mean streak. Watched alot of Uncle Byron growing up and if theres a chance to inflict pain during a tackle .... He will. God love 'im.

It's not so much the hits to the head these days. It's the knees into the back and ribs, but hell. Ruthless clubs win premierships.

Fork the opposition supporters. Rant over.

Make no mistake. Kozzie will get plenty of opposition attention over the next few years as did Aaron Davey and he'll need to be looked after by his teamates. Something that rarely happened for Davey after Neitz retired. From now on if Kozzie's in, all in I say.

Yeah, nah. Stick it right up 'em Kozzie. They were getting beaten and lost their sheet. When they're in ya face ya let 'em know. Could not give a toss they've recently won some flags.

Too forkin' big. Too forkin' strong. Too forkin' quick.

Same. Was half expecting party time like last week against the Dawks. We've taken your best now cop this .... Liked what I saw against the Cats. Thoroughly enjoyed the last qr last week. And was confident we had the premiers at half time this week. I trust these boys .... I can see the steely resolve in 'em. The lid is well and truely off for me.

Man ..... Tonight was brilliant. Didn't want it to end. Wanted to make the whole football world keep watching us dismantle them. We're comin' MoFo's.

Just watch Covid derail the season now. How's that for negative.

May, Lever and Tomlinson. The Three Headed Dragon. Love it. https://www.news.com.au/sport/afl/demons-hit-56year-high-as-tigers-left-to-lick-wounds/news-story/13343c5343d02f3861642956aebb6509

I was pretty relaxed myself TBH. Surreal TV.

So was he. No smiles this week.
