teloar has a lot of time left on a big money contract, thanks to the filth's largess

and no thank you to him at the dees

ordinary kick and zero defensive awareness

Would have thought the contract from the Pies nearly done. And I reckon he"s a reasonable kick and a great goal sneak

What's the contract status of Treloer? Would look good in Red and Blue

oh good Umpire 22 is officiating this game.......and not ours

CHOOKS! Pet chooks are the solution to the world’s ills. Everyone needs a pet chook or 10. It’s a tough gig having pets so far down the food chain but totally worth it. Today my Melksy and Harmesy will be front and centre on the couch with me watching the replay. Feathered Melksy has already seen human Melksy’s amazing mark and winning goal many times on my phone but like me, she’ll gladly watch it again and again.

So loyal and yet so tasty 🍗 just joking of course

I know this might be unpopular but you have to admire the Brisbane cheer squad. I’d imagine a lot of them are from rusted on Fitzroy families who very begrudgingly came around, but they really make some noise when they are up and about. It might be because they see a lot of losses in Vic, but they really brought it on Friday.

It’s interesting because in a way it helps make a really good argument for relocating another team away from Melbourne.

I always love it when the opposition supporters start the chant (in this case LIons...Lions) and then lose, makes me smile a lot. Mind you they did start the chant in the third quarter, I thought at the time they might regret this.

Good ol' Purple, what's he said now to get your goat

Why not just a drop punt

2 bad misses by Buddy

You know the free kick I would like to see get paid. Is when aplayer takes possession of the ball with hands free chooses not to dispose and gets tackled. Happens about 20 times a game I reckon

Watching the Swans so far I reckon Longmire has run out of ideas

Failed coach Buckley has gone down several cogs in my book.

Its the worse lot of miserable naysayers I’ve ever seen in my football supporting life.

Its not footy classified it’s Funeral classified.

I can’t stomach most of them , and only really watch the front bar and a bit of the Sunday footy show these days as anything else is just click bait and unbearable doom and gloom.

 

Front Bar is OK, I like sam and his quick wit, however it seems they drag out an old calton player every week.

Cue Adem Yze is going to leave thread

Will Essendon know how to get there?

They just need to follow the white line (should be a doddle for them)

If Essendon can play there, then why can't Carlton, Collingwood and Hawthorn (especially Hawthorn). The games revenue is made mostly from TV rights anyway. So time to move some of the other "Blockbuster" games

I have that same superpower Spurs! It's marvelous to be able to tune out of the commentary. I just hear the names of the players amongst the waffle. Every now and again something particularly irritating uttered by the clowns manages to slip through the force field 

Must be practise from you being " the man on the Telly"

I actually have a skill (maybe even a super power), that I can have the sound on and mentally tune out the commentary until the good Melbourne bits....also helps if your a bit deaf like me.

And speaking of "what gets on my goat". The term "territory" JB's favourite go to annoys the carp out of me.

Thanks can’t see it in the website, I hear July & August? So players need to travel 55 mins to Casey to train & compete for a top 4 finals spot whilst the rest of the teams have zero interruptions?

We won a premiership doing just that

When we good, I mean really mouth watering good in the past, our strength was how many players we would get to the contest, tonight we seemed outnumbered in so many occassions. I believe tyhe game plan has changed so dramatically that, the gettting numbers to the contest is no longer a priority.

Anybody looking forward to Brisbane next week?

I bet they sub Woey

A few players down at half time, Petracca, Salem, to name a couple, but rapt in Woey jnr, JJ, Sparrow and Viney

I reckon Lyon will tag Viney tonight.

He'll never keep up with him, Lyon's gotta be 60 or so

Joel Smith the sub.....That's really interesting

Grundy Gawn has been a failure so far.

JVR was a necessity. TMac and BBB had injury issues.

McVee, I'll give you that.

My point is that we don't look like a team improving. It feels like 2022/2020 all over again.

You know it wasnt a day for swaps and changes and trying things. It was a day to play hard good wet weather footy and we didnt play basic footy that you might see in the amo's or the VFA. 

I am assuming you watched this from your lounge room and not in the freezing cold at thegame:

Gawn - too old too slow

Grundy - Cameo at best

Viney - an Herculean effort

May- great all game

Lever - steady and effective 

Rivers  Underated best player

Brayshaw - Drop him now

Neal-Bullen - Better live than on TV

Bowey - only true thinker

Sparrow - tough but limited

Hunter - makes dumb decisions

Langdon - Drop now !!

McVee - not the worst

Brown - conditions didn’t suit

Harmes - Never play again

Chandler - Drop now !!

Pickett - Drop now !!

Petracca - an enigma ??

Petty - Not the worst

Smith - continues to contest (not sure what more you want )

Salem - again not the worst

Melksham- Past his prime
