Gluten-free vegan pikelets?

At least we never had to deal with Relton Roberts.

Awesome signing, he's so important to our midfield. So much of his best work goes unnoticed.

Someone older and more experienced in that position is what we need. Motlop may well be it, but I think Geelong's asking price will be too high.

I completely forgot about that. He did come back looking sickly skinny and was definitely bigger beforehand.

Thrust a needle into my bubble of ignorant bliss why don't you.

Duggan is average and doesn't add much at all to that deal for me. Would still rather we hold onto Hoges.

Sad to see Grimes' career end the way it has. I truly hope he finds a spot somewhere next season. The other two, it was always coming.

Culling too many could cause a bit of unnecessary instability. 4 - 5 changes is on the mark I think.

But my point was to allude to the fact that Roos is a far better coach than Voss, not to mention that one of those comments was from inside the club while the other was from outside. Therefore I'd be much more inclined to trust Roos statement. And I can see for myself that we have the building blocks in place - it always felt a bit precarious back in the Bailey glory days, and then we fell off the edge with 182.

OMG.

The big difference there is that one quote came from Paul Roos' mouth, one of the best coaches the game has seen in recent years, and the other came from Michael Voss.

That montage over 'Amazing' was an embarrassing send off for the retiring players. Why didn't they just do a slideshow and play 'Time of Your Life?

God I hope Parker wins and wipes that smug grin from Dangerfield's face.

Looks like he might have oiled it tonight though.

Another 3 for Maximus - he's coming

Highway robbery.

That recap of the Essendon game has ruined my night, I'm off to bed.

The first two of very many.

I'm looking forward to seeing how Maxy's cult status, beard and immense contested marking will affect his polling. I think he'll poll the most for us.

If on a computer, you should be able to right click on one of the emails and 'delete all from'. That should also prompt you to set up a rule, where you can choose to block/delete all future emails from Demonland. Maybe Nasher has an 'off' button though.

Facebook, prob.

Apologies, it was pretty immature, but I couldn't resist. - Mitchell has one of the best footy brains and awareness I've seen. Further to that, his initial acceleration is quick enough to break away and deliver the kick or handball. - Lewis has been made to look a better player than he actually is IMO. Pace is average, quicker than Trengove. - Kieren Jack, I disagree on. He has pace and a very, very good sidestep which allows him to quick-foot out of traffic. - Kennedy is a beast, 193cm and 100kg. He doesn't need to be quick, and I'd say the same about Scott Thompson. Idris appreciates that Saty. And even though I've delved into this debate about pace with you, I actually very much support Trengove's contract extension, and not for sentimental reasons. I think he has it in him.

That third quarter was almost identical to the first match against the Saints. So frustrating. It amazes me that a team can go from having the edge for the first two quarters, to standing around like witches hats in the third. We've been good at doing it, and yesterday Casey were too.
