Close thread.

The booing started because of his continuous staging for free kicks. He's since stopped it but continues to inflame things by having a sook about how people boo. If he learnt to shut up and just play footy I'm sure the booing would disappear. Everyone boo's Joel Selwod and Lindsay Thomas for staging but the just get on with it. Why can't Goodes? As for the Aussie of the Year award, we all love to cut down the tall Poppy's, especially when they earn and accept accolades of any type without the true merit deserved of such an award. We applauded him for his Brownlow because he was clearly the fairest and best player in the competition. It's a real shame either way that it's come down to this. A great deal of footy supporters are pretty rabid and pumped up at any game and when players react to get a rise from the crowd they only bring more pain on themselves which will continue for a period until it's forgotten about. The booing is not racist. It's been brought about by how he played the game for a period of time and it was amplified by the incident with the young girl.

I understand your situation only too well but when you live in WA, Tassie seems like a 9 iron to the MCG.

And you live just across the Tasman!?

I've got a feeling Jesse's gonna get mad, turn green and kick his first 5 goal bag this weekend. Set your recorders boys and girls.

I think it may have gone over some people's heads.

I'm tipping the Dee's comfortably this weekend. For the first time in a long time I've had mates texting me regards their tips/bets and asking, "so are your boys a chance against the Power?" Bloody oath we are. 47 points.

Okay, Dawesy.

Pedo moves and reads the play like an AFL level player. Dawes does not. The scope for improvement in one player is not matched by the other. The only place Dawes can regain form is in the VFL. If he's brought back in at the expense of Pedo it would be a great injustice.

The gap must be greater than just 5% I would've thought.

And I thought drinking alcohol and posting on Demonland was a no-no.

The arrogance was on show in our first game against the Suns. In hindsight, given the results the Suns have had, our victory probably isn't as impressive as first thought but by geez we showed some real mongrel in that game that clearly wasn't part of season 2014. Let's hope we can sustain it this time around pick off the Power this weekend.

Personally I can't see anything wrong with the Hogan and Pedersen combo if it keeps up.

So good that' it's still unbelievably good today.

Damn straight he does. If Dawes is an automatic walk-up start inclusion and Pedersen gets dropped I'd be fuming.

Makes me wonder, if Malthouse had have taken the job after Baileys sacking, we might've ended his coaching career a long time ago.

Who?

The thought did cross my mind but I've never been the superstitious type.

It's a good thing our captain is as durable as he is.

Did I go overboard with that last bit?

Barrett is a complete f-wit. Jack Watts has played 100+ more AFL games than you Damien and would most likely be a far better journalist you pole smoking cretin.

Personally, I think the team will be more offensively potent with the Fitz in attack as opposed to motor mouth Dawes. I hope both he and Pedo hit the scoreboard..

If our players had been performing as poorly as McRae that would be getting in the best every week. A lot of talk about his defensive game not being up to scratch but by geez, he gets his fair share of the pill.

Is that like saying your missus is as hot as she was when you first met after you've been married for 20 years?

That's your perception, possibly not his. In hindsight, and either way, it was a fairly silly thing to say by a bloke who is lauded for his judgement and careful words to the media, don't you think?
