I do love Titus’s quote from that article. We should all be so lucky. “Find someone who loves you like the umpires love the Bulldogs.”

Perhaps it is his nickname Dogga, but Jackson does strike me as a loyal, hang with his premiership mates and create some history type of bloke. However like many players throughout the league, he will wait to see what the new salary cap is and negotiate from there. He would actually be a bit silly to sign now without having all the information I honestly think there is no chance he will leave.

I know it has been mentioned here many times but if you had the option of muting the commentators while still having the crowd noise, umpires and Gawnie saying ‘that’s ruck craft big boy’ then I’d take it every single time.

Im pretty sure this bit is true: A few years ago only memberships that were worth $50+ counted. This bit may not be: During that season St Kilda’s progressive membership count actually went down at one stage as they had to discard their freebies from their tally.

At 1.50, what happened to this aggression? Think we all thought we had a player on our hands after this game. Has been ‘almost’ taking marks ever since.

Van Rooyen looks like a proper footballer Woewodin can play Chandler next in line Weideman May have played his last game for Melbourne. Would prefer the journeyman Brown to Weid

Watching the Brisbane V Pies game. Two things 1). Brisbane are going to be very hard to beat next week. They are skilled and fast 2). They are playing with their own umpires at the moment. All the 50/50’s going their way

Credit where credits due, Touk Miller is a star.

I’d love a Brissy victory just because I hate Essendon the most

Heaney is a star

Had to bump. This is fantastic!

Rioli getting off is a completely unfathomable decision. The Tribunal have just confirmed they are completely out of touch with the average fan. Bizarre

So I’ve worked out I’m pro Brisbane but anti Daniher

Funnily enough I hardly notice it any more

As has Tom Sparrow

For me now, Libba’s usual demeanour is him, time and time and time again, chasing Melbourne players out of the centre square moments before we kick a goal.

Out: Scott. Has kicked 2 goals this year (10 in 2021), averages 7 disposals (12) and isnt clunking marks like previous years. In: Zanker

Hanks. She is a star Heath D Pearce Bannan Mithen

Free Kicks 14-24. In an even game the umpires had bit of a shocker

We have done well in last quarters all year. Hopefully our superior fitness will see us through

Could not agree more enthusiastically

Yes this could be a very short thread. Hard to see anyone making a case to drop a player after that demolition.

Mithen D Pearce Hanks West. Love the way in contests she rips the ball out of the oppositions hands. She may halve but rarely loses a contest. Reliable. Kicking still suspect but has immeasurably improved since the beginning of the year. L Pearce Edit. Added West comment because she is fast becoming a favourite player

Whilst different ‘characters’ it also explains why Gawn is universally admired. Max is a true original who isn’t afraid to be himself. He also encourages this trait in others and that makes you like him even more

I hate the Bombers above all others, I like Tippa. I am glad he is back
