Winners at last

Gaz already has a premiership medallion ... possibly 2. Choosing between Richmond and Jee-long is like deciding between cholera and typhoid. I don't know whether I'll even bother watching. (If so, it would be the first time since 1968.) Brisbane didn't choke. Just not good enough. They played their GF 2 weeks ago.

I hate the filth.

Or Hardwick?

Does anyone else think that McIntosh looks like the construction worker from The Village People?

Just saw Lynch's behaviour towards Duursma. What a dog.

Who has the more punchable head ... Reiwoldt or Lynch?

My heart goes out to Rhyce. I've been in that dark place resulting from work nightmares ... as have others close to me. I hope he finds peace.

I met him briefly about 20 years ago at the G. Charming man.

I did say important players ... but take your point 58er.

The fact that important players sign on for only 2 years is a bit of a worry. It shows they want to keep their options open.

Great news. He's a lovely boy.

There's only one player on the ground with the surname Howard. So why do the commentators refer to him as Dougal Howard every time they call him? Same with (Easton) Wood, (Caleb) Daniel ... Too much time on my hands?

The only upside watching this match is that McAvaney and Taylor aren't commentating.

I'm jealous of my son. He was a friend of his daughter and got to meet the great man .... at his house. As to favourite players ... there's Robbie ... then daylight. RIP great man.

Collingwood won't go out in straight sets. They'll only play (lose) one match.

I find him totally intolerable. He should give it away.

Is it just my imagination, or does anyone else think that Ebert looks like Warren Entner from the Grass Roots (US pop group late 60s .... classic song "Midnight Confessions") ?

Wow ... there seem to be 2 camps. One of my colleagues was in Jack's year level at Carey. Her comment was that he wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed. Which is perhaps consistent with the comments that he's difficult to coach. His attempts to barge through tackles look totally clueless. He invariably gets caught. (A bit like Jonesy before he stopped doing it ... after about 10 seasons !!) And his refusal to kick on his right foot when that is clearly the best option hurt the side. Actually there are 3 camps.I'm kinda in the middle. Don't really mind if he stays or goes.

There's been some talk about Shaun Higgins. He will be 33 at the start of next season.

I think he's worth keeping, perhaps on a 2 year deal. But not on big coin.

At least that will free up time for him to enjoy his favourite activities .... swimming & ???

Agree, Taberner & Walters are their 2nd and 3rd best players. Season over for Dees.

He stuck one on Petracca

Stringer unrealistic marking attempt ... play on ... Essendon goal. Two holding the ball decisions not paid right at the end ... In any event ... who cares? We won ... hahaha

That's spookily like something I'd post. P.S. That's not a compliment.
