I'm grateful for making the trip down to Hobart Vs North....

Surely not, I only had to drive over the bridge & that was bad enough.

I am grateful for being able to watch my team & we're always a chance of winning.

Jones - heart and soul

Hogan - an amazing return

Petracca - didn't impose enough

Lewis - an important component 

Brayshaw - classy but subdued

Gawn - failed to impose

Tyson - was rarely effective 

Oliver - eventually shook opponent

Hibberd - ragged but vital

Stretch - little to enthuse

Melksham - quietly undertook requirements 

Hannan - had little impact

Pedersen - the resurrection continues

Vince - the decline continues

T.McDonald - was rarely sighted

O.McDonald - stuck to task

Hunt - uncertain ball handling

Neal-Bullen - publicity stifled performance 

Garlett - 2 minute performance 

Jetta - was unusually quiet

Wagner - far from convincing

Harmes - some deft touches

Got four points

I hadn't

Said to son before the game...as he asks about who to put in his fantasy sides etc....He asked ..Viney?  I said  nah...GUS !!  Just watch him straighten up the play.. He played further back than I thought he would today but a good way to bring him back into the fray.

Had to be in the votes I reckon !!

i won't again,If he gets the luck he deserves we can look forward to watching his long and famous career.

I had forgotten how good he was.

Were still alive ??

Last week they had us winning the flag, this week we have a poor culture and need to grow up, part of me thinks that the extreme's of the analysis is a bad reflection of the industry but part of me is just happy they are talking about Melbourne.

I have woken up as keen as I ever was in my own modest but passionate playing days, It's a great thing to see the belief grow in our boys, If we play anywhere near 4 quarters we will be hard to beat. Go Dees

I reckon the only wall we should be building Dub, is one around the 'G to keep out the interlopers, such as the Filth, Toigs and Carlscum.  After all, it's Mabo, it's the Constitution. it's the vibe.  We were the original owners of the land ..... in a football sense I mean.

 

We are the owners of the land & we will be collecting the rent from the squatters 4 points at a time.

I can't remember where i read or heard this verse...... The Tigers they were horty in the year 1940 but the demons would not be licked

& they found themselves ahead at the final bell with the spirit of '26

It's a grand old flag.........

but I did

It's funny what you remember

My Foxtel Guide isn't telling me that.

Mine doesn't either but the AFL website say's a 6.30pm start, maybe someone at Foxtel needs to refresh it.

The time for fear of any venue or opponents has past, As one of my old coaches used to say " F*** em let em worry about us"  

A good chance for the boys to freshen up & for us to calm ourselves before our return to finals footy......

no

It's winning time !!!

I love the fact that he publicly bleeds red & blue.

Could possibly be the pick of the players we have brought in during the first phase of this re-build, all class !

He's got me, Gotta love a red head with a bit of mongrel in him, I loved it when Cyril sniped him, he stood straight up & went back & let him know he was still there.

Wow.

I rarely read this thread but out of respect to members I thought I'd catch up and see if there was anything worthwhile.

I've summarised what I've learnt over the last ten pages below:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I just can't wait for next year to watch Jesse turn green, rag doll opposition defenders drag in big pack marks and kick bags.

 

I'm with you brother & all the Hulkamaniacs will rejoice !!!

Great post,  I have a feeling in my waters that Goody is the man to complete the circle.
