I remember both those sides probably F grade effin terrible was our grade and I played seconds. Even worse. good luck to your dad

Yes I remember Oakleigh Districts in the 70's sounds the same as Doveton in the 80's. wasnt really safe during daylight if you played for their opposition.

Did not mind Thornbury, I played with UHSOB, couple of suburbs away, so tough match, tough to support the seniors but never really a problem, but we never over stayed our welcome. Only played a couple of times about the 1980's if i remember. All a bit of a blur now, throw in a marriage and breakup, I do not remember and not sure i want to remember it all. If I remember Thornbury had one neighbour club they absolutely hated and same the other way. Anyway Go Dees

I thought Doveton, was pretty rough, cannot remember going in and having a beer after, however Thornbury played as hard, but you could have a beer, perhaps only one,

Could not watch and listened after a few glasses of Shiraz, so on these observations MFC. Many diverse views. really good to have a lightening rod to attract differing opinions thanks joeboy

Easy win now I can watch Paris to Roubaix over the cobble stones

Agree. It’s great to have a strong team dies not matter you earn your position in The side. Go dees. Enjoy the win Anthony and the boys

Probably still there in an hours time. Ask then. Or she is one of the loudest just now. Go dees

Come on Dees. Make me wish i was watching

Thats where Rosie will be, guaranteed in the room. Probably one of the loudest

I do wish I could watch bit you have to be smart sometimes

Come on. people. Please call the game not individually. I need to know are we going to win this too [censored] to drive to the pub to watch it and I in did I would not focus enough anyway ,

Love reading the game day thread but I cannot or try not to post during the game easy to read win or loss after the game but not during ,, today can anyone post cos I cannot watch only read this thread

WCW. Say hullo to rosemary a long time friend and old cheer squad member. ( 1970) she lives 100 metres away. She will be there. Good on ya Rosie !

Bloody bike rides in France, they keep me awake till all hours. Of Italy or Spain

Again. Bit harsh on the esteemed uncle. where is his scarf ?

I think this is a little crass. shapes do not go with cheddar, savoy crackers and tasty cheese at the least. They are great with a dry red. as long as there is enough of everything

Always a great start to the football round to see the pie’s pantsed ! and to pick it.

Totally agree. Very similar. I think it’s the agility he shows and confidence

Ditto. My old dog would get up and leave the room when ever football was on the TV. my wife just tunes out. lucky unlucky love hate. All the same stick/emotions just the other end. She does wonder why I watch or stay to the end when it’s obvious we are beaten or not playing well.

While I do not totally disagree re Naughton and Daniher, I did watch him closely on Sunday. He did Ok but we had a lot of the play. Not his natural position, but he is tall and can take a mark and is courageous. He copped a knock and was limping in one of the earlier games, I thought he was not fully fit, but then at this level, no one really is or they are not training hard enough. He might needs a few games to settle in up front, but it might be like Neitta and the OX. Who knows ?

Thought he had a great first game. I saw him fly and almost grab a couple of marks and then he took that beauty. He floated around or over the pack rather than through it. he really did remind me of a young David Schwarz. Hope that is not a hex!

I was at the ground but a long way from the Richmond end. So only saw close half the action. both Grundy and Oliver got better as the day went on. So 6 Grundy 5 Oliver I thought Lever was very good Rivers, Bowey, McVee and Pig all composed 4 Lever 3 Chandler had a great day 2 Fritz got better 1 Van Rooyen took marks like the Ox did when he started fantastic Apologies Rivers, McVee, Hibbo, Spargo, AnB, Tracca, Hunter, Langdon Sparrow, Bowey and others

Picket in for sure, who to drop, NFI, I did think Petty was lost up forward , took a couple of nice marks but it was regulation stuff, but he took them, I think only one good shot on goal, I would send him back or to Casey . very glad it is not my decision, someone will always find fault. a very strong good win yesterday 4th quarter was excellent I do think if anyone is slightly injured, rest them, May needed the run, I thought Petty was injured last week.
