Worst After the Siren Record
Was at that game and could see Neiter lining him up ready to lay a bone crunching tackle. Was right behind the goal at the City end and Wiz's kick off the boot was offline but veered left and sailed through. Trent Croad played one good game for Freo and this was it he kicked 7

49ers: From 2nd Last to Superbowl
I heard a reporter say the other day only 3 players remained from the roster when they made their initial coaching change. Their coach actually selected the General manager which is the opposite to what usually occurs It would seem the off field chemistry has set the right environment Having said all that this is not unique in the NFL, both the Rams and Falcons have made Superbowls in the last decade after having poor seasons 2 to 3 years before. Very even competition which makes the Patriots achievements so much more impressive in the salary cap era

Yes , first time in a while I haven't got the day off. Usually head to a bar after a big brekky and watch it over a few frothies.

Harley Bennell Injury
Have to laugh when Hagdorn and Langdon praise Hardie for getting a scoop, he's only ever repeated something he's heard earlier in the day on Vic radio. Great player and very skillful but a shocking sports journo

49ers: From 2nd Last to Superbowl
Patriots fan since getting #73 John Hannah Jersey in 78, so I have had a great run in my lifetime. Would like to see the Chiefs win. When you look at the 49ers last season whilst the win loss ratio looks bad, they lost a lot of close games and didn't have Jimmy G for a lot of the year. So whilst they ended up with the second worst record they IMO were better than a lot of sides and suffered from playing in a strong division having to play the Seahawks and Rams twice. Ive spoken before about getting lucky in the AFL and bottoming out in the right draft year like the Hawks when they got Roughie and Buddy, well the niners certainly got lucky with the Cardinals wanting a QB and leaving Bosa at pick 2. I think the niners will defensively be two strong so think you'll be happy Monday lunchtime

Re-energised Demons on Mission to Atone
The great Reverend spoke to the boys in 2017 or 18 and coined the phrase I'm not interested in what you say, "When all is said and done, more is said than done." He followed up with why not us, and they lifted for a period. Now is the time for this team to progress to consistent effort week in week out, quarter by quarter and in a couple of years genuine flag tilt

Countdown to Footy
We're probably getting West Coast as good a time as ajy the heat can be an issue in March, but McGovern and Barrass are behind in their pre season with interuptions and they will look to build as the season progresses. Oscar Allen also has had an interupted start. On the negative most of their mids are up and running as is JK. Anyone have any idea about tickets for Round 1 or receive anything from the club

Seven year deal for Grundy
Capuano, Barnes, Keating, McDonald, Lade, Jolly, Cox(exception) Ottens, Renouf Ottens, Jolly, Ottens Pike, Mcevoy, Roughead J, Nankervis & Lycett over 20year priod pretty much support your argument and most of the Runner ups in those years are in a similar boat

Northey era vs Daniher era
Think both were really good era's, with both having their strengths and weaknesses. Running into 2 of the best teams in history in Hawks 88 and Bombers 00, made things difficult. 87 was our best chance under Swooper and we were on a roll, but had we got through similar to the 2018 prelim we may have run our race, Robbie Flower and Brian Wilson would have both been out, 10 previous weeks ( including H & A + finals) and a warm day with the Blues having the weeks rest may have been a bridge to far 98 IMO was Dannihers best side with the mix of experience and youth, we were flying early in the finals and the old finals system didn't do us any favours, because I reckon going into finals with our form ourselves and North were the 2 best sides going in. I would have fancied us against them week 1 of the finals but Jeff White's injury didn't help for the Prelim. Danners sides from 2000-06 just lacked key defenders and from 02-06 we paid for poor end of season runs costing us double chances
