Thanks for all the reporting guys. Love yous.

Wow wee. Goodness gracious me.

If fit, this guy is in the best 26 footballers, and best eight backmen, in the club. He’s consistently been named in Casey’s best recently. Amazing he wasn’t bought in to replace Salem. He’s certainly better than three blokes we put in the field yesterday. Yesterday’s game was, at least partly, lost at the selection table.

There are 100 micro decisions that players made yesterday that if different would have potentially changed the result. Max’s decisions rank about 80 on the list.

Let those who has never made a mistake levy the first fines.

If we think the major problem is the umpires, then we are delusional.

Owner of a lonely heart.

Where’s Launceston? Oh, that’s right. Horethorn’s home ground.

Looking to increase Weed's trade table value . . . Go Deez.

Not when the content curation is this good on this thread.

Meanwhile, Elon has just walked away from it and some ethical investors are beginning to divest.

Post of the week award.

Why hasn't anyone else thought of that I wonder?

And move Lockett to CHB and Hudson to full back.

Is the footage on the dark web?

How did Abbey Holmes know that Harry McKay had pulled himself off?

Generous I would have thought adonski.

Bont.

Their best jibes I agree Melbourne are exactly like us lose the games they are supposed to win easily. We are on here. Nothing to show for 70 years except a blown opportunity to get smashed in the 87 GF and a public humiliation in 2000. Now the Range Rover crew are giving us lip? Wait for the snow to melt before cracking wise. May I interest you in Aldi's snow gear sale ⛷ Melbourne home game, and we will still outnumber them 3/1. Melbourne are due for a loss. Their performance against Norf was deplorable, and were lucky to get away with a win. Petracca will be sore, and Melb are renowned for banking the points before a game is played. If we can shut down Salem, we are in with half a chance. Their despair Murphy one of our worst performers in the seniors this year but too good to play VFL. Pathetic. If all players were accountable no way would Pittonet and Casboult be getting a game. Some of us are trying to pretend that last Sunday didn't happen. Murph is nigh on useless. Bringing Murphy back in won't help at all. Round the grounds Gawn will slaughter pit. Pittonet needs to watch how Goldstein & Gawn play and then get 50% fitter. If you'd seen us play last week you'd know that our mids can't even read our own taps, let alone the opposition's. From 2015 we have, through draft, trades, FA and rookie, brought in 68 players, 31 of those are no longer with the club and worth noting that not one of those 31 were traded, all were effectively busts. We are sitting ducks on Sunday - in fact I hereby name Sunday, sitting duck Sunday. I am 99.9% confident we will lose. I can't see us getting anywhere near this mob. Their madness We are going to smash them this weekend , I've already placed my winning bet. The difference between Melbourne us is that have been through a few of years of learning how to win and it is starting top happen now. Who is to say Carlton is really years away from this - there isnt that much talent differential in the sides- experience yes talent no - Carlton may actually develop faster - we've got serious talent to come back in to this side - more than any other side with injuries can boast. Cripps to CHF on Lever … make him accountable otherwise he will be the difference. Their discernment Luke Jackson is not playing thankfully. If Melbourne stick to their usual M/O they will start their strongarm tactics. We just don't have anybody that can give it back to them. Pickett terrifies me. If he cuts loose we will be in a world of hurt. Deas are a bloody good side, not unbeatable but they are real quality. We need to go out all guns blazing, bring some genuine physicality and get the jump on them. Then we need to implement a good physical defensive game which we haven't yet. Pickett has a few tricks but averages just over 14 touches a game and about 1.75 goals a game this year. despite the Gary Lyon hyperbole he won't beat us by himself but we need stay on top of him. Pickett is crazy good. Do we have someone who can go with Petracca? Not really, but I think Setters is the best option while Petracca is in the middle. Does Ed go to Petracca or Oliver? Answer: Yes! Oliver - need to keep chewing his ear off about coming to Carlton. An out of form Gawn is still the best ruck in the AFL. From Leppa yesterday "they’re really competitive in the air, but if Weitering or Liam Jones don’t mark it and hits the deck, they’re not winning that ground level ball in their back half".

Me and me mates have nicknamed Horethorn 'Hypocrite Highway' for years. This sort of behaviour has been baked into their DNA for years.

And I'd move Hudson to CHB and Barassi into the back pocket.

Some day everything will make sense . . . but today's not the day.

Some of the contributions on this thread are priceless. Reminds me of the federal ALP . . . never been lead into government from opposition by a person who served in the previous federal Labor government. It is entire possible that the Deez next NSM isn't born yet!

How many games of footy has he coached in the AFL?

Same as free kicks . . . doesn't matter how many you get, it's where you get 'em that counts.
