    Just listening to the pre game on Fox.

    King told the story of his coaching days at Carey when Jack Viney was there.

    He said they had to take Jack out of some games because he was too tough for the other kids !!

    Under 18's apparently !!!!

    Who was it broke Jack’s jaw in his first game?

     

    It was really marvellous to see Ben Brown tonight.

    Last season I thought we wouldn’t see him again.

    The story from North was his knees were shot and he could only run in straight lines
     

    he looked pretty mobile tonight and he is a lovely kick when he gets the ball

    Bearing in mind that players who just played the best game of their life usually have a dud the next week should ANB be dropped for the Adelaide game ?

     

     

    not entirely serious 

     

    pretty stoked with that performance

    Cats......Talk about a flag hangover.

    Love it.

    Don’t we need lots of in-depth analysis of where they are going wrong ?

     

    plus video of Scott’s facial gymnastics from during the games

    He’s always good value

    Thanks Andy. I am struggling with the decision on whether to get Kayo via the club membership this year. Could not go yesterday due to  having a cataract removed but after studying the fixture there are quite a few games that will be tv events for me this season. May have take a subscription. 

    Do we need a separate discussion about what we collectively do about pay TV and what the best options are?
    we dropped any Murdoch subscriptions last year on principle but we might need to swallow our consciences ?

    Wasn't huge on Grundy today. Thought most of his taps went to the opposition and his disposal was simply meh.

    Still thrilled we got him, hopefully he works into some form before the start of the season.

    I’m playing catchup 

     

    is he bang for buck do you think?

    [censored] I HATE the pussie cats as it seems nearly every time will play those [censored] wits we end up with an injured player such as Mayx2, Viney, Oliver etc and of course it’s always ACCIDENTALL which is bull [censored]  

    I HATE THE [censored]  wits AND HOPE WE BEAT THEM IN THE FINALS. If we meet them again. 
     

    GOD I HATE THEM. 

    Are you saying that in respect of the GFC, notwithstanding  they have redeeming features - nevertheless , overall, in consideration, in your mind, the negatives outweigh the positives ?

    just clarifying that it’s Tom Hawkins who is the hero of that day as he stood back and watched

    Happy memories

     

    I believe that Hercule Poirot, that most famous detective in the whole world, would have detected in that sequence of events,  a significant lack of exercise of the little grey cells, especially by that (Geelong) number 26 whose effort was piddling and pathetic although, perversely,  and at the same time, entirely satisfactory and satisfying 

    and on second thoughts, he probably was exercising all the little grey cells he possesses

    I hate Geelong withh a passion, but now I like playing them becaue it give us another chance of twhpping their @sses. The only thing better than beating them after the siren in Rd 23 would have been do it in front of packed house of their feral supporters. Bring on Thursday night!

    Brave words
