I'll have 4 please, concurrently.

Thank god for Jogan: Jones and Hogan.

Frost must be dropped. #Frostfacts

Way too early to tell if they will dive into the depths we did. I suspect they'll start winning a few games, gradually get good players back in and then finish around the middle. A few good trades over October (dare I say the name Hogan...) and they may well jump up next year. They are certainly better resourced than we were and being an interstate club the AFL would never let them drop down for too long.

Don't know if the failed psych test is true, but people develop towards adulthood in differing ways. Petracca is certainly maturing into a thoughtful and compassionate young man, good on him..... (but I still want him to be ruthless and super competitive on the footy field)

Stringer had a shocker, matched only by the umpiring.

Could it be that the interchange cap has exhausted the players so much that skill levels have dropped?

A game of terrible mistakes and turnovers by both teams, almost farcical.

How was that a free to Higgins? Well played by Norf teammate in the yellow.

Football is more than just a game. Great effort by CP5, the club and most importantly, by the boy and his dad.

Maybe we could have a Melbourne Academy covering all of Melbourne. Following on from the others, it seems fair and reasonable.

Beer o'clock start early today Biff?

Signed Jesse Hogan boots! Fantastic gift for the fella. Hope he has a great day tomorrow. Well done to Tracc and all the team.

Completely agree WYL. One look at the 20 goals clip on the website will show you he was involved in many of them, not to mention the work in the backline when giving Gawn a rest. In time, Weid will hopefully become the other KPF we need which will add to the competition for forward spots. It will be interesting to see if Dawes can leave the rehab cycle behind and recover fitness and in form. Needs to bang the door down hard, I can't see that happening anytime soon.

The old grey mare he ain't what he used to be...... Amongst his best assets were his ability to run all day and present. With a dodgy calf and little match practice, that ability might be compromised. Has he had a transplant for his concrete hands?

Not sure any of those teams considered any of them 'saviours', that was the press

Does any team in the AFL consider any player a saviour these days? It's a term reserved for the out of touch and the footy media (not always mutually exclusive)

dc I believe that fine strap on number is popular in the private boxes at Darklands Stadium, usually accompanied by a dummy and warm milk.

I'm so excited And I just can't hide it I'm about to lose control And I think I like it!

what is the national costume of Cameroon?

You'll be in trouble when your missus finds out about these fantasies mikey.

Stop the lies about being on your own in a corporate box this week Stuie. I found you in the outer last week. Wait a minute, I took a picture, ah let me see..... here you are!

Not if he's all on his lonesome BBO.

I dare anyone to tell him face to face that he's not good enough or second fiddle. The Spence will dispense!

I'd be fairly confident that when posters say "Ah the good old days..." they are tongue in cheek referring to their advancing age and the eras of football they've seen rather than condoning or glorifying violence on the field. Of course the Cronin family would be upset by any violence given their son/sibling died from a coward's punch, no one is denying that. Using them in an emotive rant is tasteless. I don't think Rance is a "weak dog" as you put it. I certainly see the irony in faceless people behind a keyboard calling him that, especially after he fronted the media, apologised and took full blame. What he did was stupid, out of character and could have had far worse consequences. Thankfully it didn't. There are no excuses for violence, people make mistakes, sometimes bad ones, nobody is perfect, he has been penalised by the AFL and we move on. I do not like what Rance did one bit and it sends a poor message to kids about actions on the footy field. He has made significant effort to apologise and condemn violence, which will make some difference and should be accepted in good faith. Would the Cronin family be please to hear of Rance's public contrition?
