At Least I Saw a Flag

Who's Dean Terlich?

He'll play.

This guy seems too good to be true. Where's the catch?

Peter Giles and Neville Bruns say hi.

I'd be happy with an OK performance. (Not expecting a win.) But I suspect it will be ugly. Hopefully I'm wrong.

Macca, his version of Cry Me a River was an absolute ripper.

Still not too late. 21 hours left!!!

Oh, duffer me!!!

It's my birthday on Tuesday. (In the unlikely event that anyone is interested.)

Quite a few posters have omitted Lumumba. Surely a walk up start?

I hate Essendon F.C.

He obviously lost a bet.

I hate Essendon.

A broken clock shows the correct time twice a day. (Assuming its not a digital 24 hour clock, in which case it would be once a day.)

Obfuscate!! (C + B). What a great word!!

Totally agree.

I'm pretty confident that Tmac will have first go at Cloke.

Well said all ...

Grimes isn't going to get any better. His poor tackling, decision making and disposal won't get appreciably better. He's 25 and has played lots of games. So many of his mistakes result in opposition goals which are momentum killers. Perhaps someone could put new words to the song "How do you solve a problem like Maria?" (from The Sound of Music)? Substitute "Grimesy" for "Maria" would be a start. The side was great today. Well, for most of the match. The killers were the poor start, and lack of composure at crucial times.

I have a friend who has this insidious disease. It has severely aged and incapacitated him. He has to go for infusions every few weeks. I'm really sorry for Clarkson. No point in saying get better/well because I'm sure he doesn't go onto this site. But he won't be coaching this year.

I was at the Western Oval that day. There was a "myth" that Demons supporters hugged complete strangers when the siren went. No myth!! Guilty as charged!!! I was at the G for the first 2 finals; thumped North by 115 points and Swans by 75 points. I remember in the gents (at 3/4 time) someone starting singing Its a Grand old Flag. Then everyone joined in. A memorable moment. As for the famous Stynes final. I was there too. I think there was a fair chance that even without the 15 metre penalty, Buccanara may have kicked it anyway. He was an absolute gun. Had the Demons won, would have got thrashed by Carlton in the GF. The Preliminary Final was a bruising match; players would have been stuffed. Hawthorn were. It was a great ride that year. Johnny Northey was a coach who got the absolute most of some very average players. Jamie Duursma, Dean Chiron, Doug Koop etc. Although he had a few champions too, Robbie Flower, a young Garry Lyon, Viney etc. I loved those Johnny Northey sides. They absolutely gave their all. And they had a great record in close matches.

Agree with all of the above.

I think Byrnes must have some dodgy photos of Roos. Can't imagine any other reason why he keeps getting a game.

Go Redlegs!!!

I think it is incorrect to say that Franklin took out 3 cars. I think it was 4.
