Crompton's the man

We need to ask the umpire's adviser how on earth it is possible to tackle an opponent who has the ball and buries his head in your stomach

That (? Jetta)hand pass off a mark decision is a game-changer

Will be any accountability for that rubbish decision?

Great umpiring

HOW WAS THAT NOT 50?!?!?

Correct

The idea that you have to " walk then crawl then run " bothers me

Can't put my finger on it ....

Gentlemen and Gentleladies

Can anyone imagine how great the furore would have bin had Juliar fallen asleep during a service commemorating our war dead?

Stand by for the Murdoch Press to wheel out eight or ten journalists commiserating on how stretched he has been in his service of our nation and how carping any person would have to be who could be incapable of empathising with this man who almost singlehandedly must be charged with the huge task of fixing the Budget Emergency ( after all, the national debt will soon be 13% of GDP unless measures are taken and then, before we know it, our debt will be of the order of Great Britain's ( i.e. 48%))

Not that I allude to the possibility of nauseating double standards in those excellent servants of the truth or nothin

But can you imagine ..........

Was it Kate Lundy who gave the "we'll catch you" speech? The only poor [censored] who got caught was Ahmed Saad whose crime was to choose the wrong energy drink in a seven eleven fridge. Meanwhile, James Hird is studying in France courtesy of the AFL and despite admissions from Essendon players, no action has been taken against the setting up of an off site injecting room to inject prohibitive substances. Nothing will come of this. No, my apologies, in order to ensure nothing comes of it, Asada will be found to be compromised, which they probably are.

Agree

Don't want to, but agree.

The price for justice is too high, too embarrassing.

Therefore, agree.

Geoff Shaw to be President of the MRP following his expulsion from Parliament

Consistency to be the hallmark of the new regime under his leadership

Can't believe the difference this season

Passes land on chests and don't bounce off, hand passing is crisp in close, and those midfield trades are beginning to look like recruiting master strokes.

It is not all that long ago someone was quoted as saying that our efforts were not acceptable as being to AFL standards, as I seem to recall. And what is quite remarkable is that these are the same players.

We have a team that can play!

And better yet is that our youth is developing and next year could see further honing of our stocks through delistings and trade/drafting

It seems to make a difference having top people on the case

and - no, I am not serious

R U serious ?

Not entirely

but anticipating the soon-to-be-savoured work product of football journalists who operate without fear or favour

Sack the coach.

Surprised that hasn't been suggested previously

GEELONG IN CRISIS

( you heard it here first)

Hi there from Cartagena, Columbia.

I'm in the marketplace in the walled city and there's a bloke here trying to sell me some Cuban cigars.

What brand do you recommend?

Sorry to be a little slow

Sun has only just come up here

To business: it is really hard to go past the Montecristo No.2 for an everyday treat and for that special occasion ( like when the client pays the bill ) I would recommend you keep your eyes peeled the Cohiba Behike

If my legal fees were being paid by the Club, I'd want the best cigar-smoking lawyer in Australia

( or the world )

At least from Scully's perspective he'll have enough cash to cover that pathetic "wrestle." (Are players still fined for wrestling?)

Tiges go from 6.18 to 14.2 in consecutive weeks.

Clearly match fixing

Who has turned their kicking around this week?

So in respect of the sought quantum, where do you and the rest of us subscribers stand?

Not being across the rules fully where do we stand on taking it before the tribunal on getting it downgraded to low impact and what is the difference in it being negligent as opposed to reckless ?

Don't know nothin about it but ifnhe has carryover points it don't make much difference?

Speaking of which, I wonder how that muppet who advertised on here the fact he was switching to the Tigers is feeling.

Probably a bit dizzy about now I should think

Don't know about light impact. I think Dawes will get a week. I hope I'm wrong.

Yes

82.5 is wishful thinking, especially if he has carryover points......

They could play the Chapman footage from a couple of weeks ago, on the other hand, and maybe give him a gold star instead of a week

I think that Pedersen just needed to feel that he was wanted and part of a team culture. Roos has made him and the other players feel that way.

Watching from a distance (Qld) and having chewed through fingernails, the end game was really pleasing - last two years we would have folded in that position and will probably occasionally still.

The feeling of being valued in the team is showing through. It is so great to see JKH demand the ball at the end, his lead being honoured and his reliable kick delivered under pressure. So good for building morale - and how different to Jones being a sole hand week after week.

Jack Viney !!! Wow

Does anyone think that Dawes will be suspended for his head high fend off?

I reckon he might have a week or two off.

Hope not but this is Melbourne and we always (sorry most of the time) get screwed over.

Wondered about that

Negligent

High contact

Light impact

82.5

We are above Richmond

Hopefully they recognise the correctness of that position.

I know they are no chance but can we still make the finals ?

Percentage !!

.... I assume you were joking

By way of explanation

they are consistently applying double standards
