Rob Mac......

Their logo and iconic name looks great on the back of our jumpers. I welcome their coming on board.

Great, I didn’t realize reading Demonland would be so educational! Thanks Ethan, I’ll pass your history lesson on to the locals ?

Hi folks. In Los Angeles here

OD, I believe you if you say they’re selling poorly in Oz. Have you driven one? My girlfriend traded her Q40 for a new Q50. I drove both a lot and they’re really nice, and selling very well here in Los Angeles

IMO it was no coincidence that for years we almost always lost when Peder was not playing, yet so often won when he was playing! Not a big star but he did things people don’t notice, and he had as good a “team first” attitude as anyone ever, which is contagous so really helps the scoreboard. IMHO Peder should have always been our #1 CHF ahead of that very nice and intelligent chap reputed to have concrete hands. Peder seems to have been underapreciated and underused yet had a lovely attitude throughout so one can easily feel gratitude and many best wishes for his future. Thanks man.

Worth hearing the whole thing. TMac speaks knowledgeably and seems a good fellow. ..better player than Hogan ever was.

IMHO Frosty is greatly underappreciated on DL. After Lever went down our defence went to the toilet until Frosty came in; then suddenly it was much better. His speed and power are serious weapons and he’s seriously improving everything else. I also have him well ahead of Oscar.

Pederson had the finest sporting attitude. No evidence of him complaining or being a prima-donna when he was under-appreciated. IMHO it was no coincidence that we usually won when Cam replaced Dawes at CHF, but lost when Dawesy was at CHF and Cam didn't play! He earned my respect, I wish him every success and am sure he'll always be welcome at the club.

5. TMac Maybe 3. VDB 2. Harmes Gus, amongst so many others handballed into trouble etc.. disposal was shite, few good options provided. Did they get sleep the night before?

IMO he’s improved this year, but TMac is great now and is well ahead.

Starts at 2.50am here (Los Angeles). Just replayed our last two games. Max and our midfield are FLYING now like never before!! If this balance continues we should win. But oh no, I have a fear: If instead of hitting out to Clarrie, Harmes, Gus etc., if instead of that Max starts hitting out to a young man who hasn’t played for ages, who we love for his spirit, energy, effort, aggression, but he must be rusty, if our midfield setups start revolving more around JV today than Clarrie etc., then unfortunately I predict we’ll lose. If Jack V and everyone respect and maintain the great midfield thats developed since his injury, then IMHO we might win some more games!

I can’t separate Clarries skills, TMacs hard work making him so great, and big Maxy! so happy to see Harmes, Gus and Frosty taking off lately.

TMac raved about Frosty years ago and I always believed he’d arrive. He’s done proud to appear to be our best KPD now.

It’s a perfect opportunity to give Bugg a last chance this week, in for Spargo who's cooked now. Bugg runs great, excellent endurance, strong who'll run, tag, compete, stick tackles and harass all day long. Yes we’ve focused on Bugg hate over his set shot kicking which has improved at least a bit, but his good qualities are so good, we forget that his 7 week suspension made us immediately weaker back then. I suspect they’ve wrongly stamped Buggs papers just as they wrongly stamped Lynden Dunn and Stef Martins. We’d be silly not to try him with little to loose now, and plenty to gain because Spargo’s cooked while Tommy B is strong and fast all day long. He could take any of their midfielders out of the game and, like with Frost, people will wonder why we didn't try him earlier.

This is HEINOUS ! Three of them have us as runner up in the GF ! After that kind of [censored] publicity we always fail miserably.

Hogan out, if he needs it. In Pedo or AVB (Not Weed) JKH out. In Bugg, Hannan

Exactly Lucifer’s. It’s 4.47am here, i should be sleeping, but that was just too good! Must stay up for the last quarter. Please keep it together this week Dees!

Lovely pic DV8, hahah. CJade- Yes a hand is far less career threatening than a foot, but its still an important appendage, won’t have healed properly and surely the trauma of a match so soon risks ongoing problems.

Did I read correctly that Harmes broke a bone in his hand last weekend, has had a plate inserted and is expected to play this weekend, just a few days after the operation?? I’m cringing with concern, like when Viney came back early.

JKH should be out. Oscar has much improved this year, still not great, but well worth keeping Good to have Frosts speed and power the past two weeks.

Way into Q1 and Watch AFL hasn’t started working yet. !

Sitting in Los Angeles, Watch Afl App isn’t working. Driving me crazy trying to see the game. Obviously not addicted to watching the game though. Good luck everyone!
