At Least I Saw a Flag

Somewhat ironic that Ballard is playing an absolute blinder v WC. Hopefully his nemesis does likewise tomorrow!!

It's a relief to watch a puddy tatts match without that annoying Jee-long chant. And a pleasure to watch them lose.

Whoever drafted the rule/s in question will get a 'please explain' from the AFL!!

Never in doubt.

FWIW Murray Kellam is a good guy ... subject to the decision!!!!

Does anyone know who the Appeal Tribunal members are? FWIW, Will Houghton is an incredibly well respected KC. I also know Andrew Wood, AFL's Counsel. Great guy, but not (yet) at Will's level.

I agree with (some) others that the Petty forward experiment should continue a little longer. If that fails, I think Schache should get another chance or chances.

Mayblooms v Fuchsias !!

The appeal will be successful.

Yes ... way too much blah blah blah. Lyon & Buckley are worst with their over analysing.

I was at the Globe too!! I was upstairs. There was more than one Demons' supporter there ... me and a friend, 2 guys (looked to be in their thirties) and another guy (Demons scarf) late 20s with 3 lovely women (who weren't Dees supporters). I was groaning when Macpherson was about to take the shot for goal. One of the lovely women turned to me and said "he'll miss". When he missed, she said with a smile "told you!!". (She was a Cats' supporter.)

Payne from the Lions is a seriously good player.

He seemed to get a few 'Joe the Goose' type goals. Have you seen any GC matches this year? His efforts have been deplorable, particularly for a guy so big and athletic.

Chol and Casboult are barely AFL standard.

I met him at the Family Day too. Delightful guy? Good description ... he's a ripper, as a player, and a bloke.

No surprise .... He told me at the Family Day that he was staying at the Dees. And I posted that information in this thread.

The only consolation was the Toiges losing, and the Swans losing.

Great efforts by Sloan

I hate the filth.

Chol is a terrible player. Dusty Martin ... 'don't argue' ... pushed an opponent in the neck. No free kick ... of course.

I remember the match v Norf last year. I watched it at the Coogee Bay Hotel with my Sydney residing daughter, her then boyfriend and his father. We were down at half time ... Norf were really aggressive, and poor Lingers copped injured ribs courtesy of that charming man Taryn Thomas. (I spoke to him at Family Day ... he told me it was actually 4 broken ribs .) He was never the same after that. Hopefully those horrible Norf players won't be so mean this time.

The early bird catches the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

In: Kozzy to get the occasional gig in the centre square to get him into the match. Out: Kozzy not getting the occasional gig in the centre square to get him into the match.

Not as much as me. I loathe them ... and their people* *I use the word loosely. Admission ... having said that I don't mind McRae, and Moore.
