Barring a miracle. The Bulldogs should knock the Blues out of the finals now. If we can win next week then we should secure a top 4 spot.

I love Sparrow!

How good is it to see Brayshaw out the middle!

I cannot believe that someone in the Magpie Army has a banner that says ‘Get over it, Collingwood hates you too!’ Quality! 😂

And he replied?! Replied to a supporter from an opposition club poking him on a deal he just did?

Yes. I just wanted to let him know what a good player they had snared in Hogan. His email is [email protected]

You can email anyone in the league using the same formula. Roosy emailed me too when he was coach of Melbourne.

Peter Bell never learns. I sent him an email about the Fremantle acquisition of Hogan and he replied that they thought they had a really good player. They got next to nothing out of Hogan despite him growing up a Freo fan. Doesn’t the Jackson situation look kind of similar?

The fact that Harmes was an absolutely dyed in the wool Demons supporter growing up, might just keep him at the club.

Lever to come in. Tomlinson out.

would move Brayshaw into the middle and rotate Petracca and Gawn through the forward line, spending the rest of their time in the midfield.

Geelong could really destroy the Bulldogs next week!

I love Sparrow!

Take that you clueless Weideman doubters!

In Jake we trust! Go easy him and rack off if you don’t believe in him!

Those two sentences are antithetical.

I mean mentally on board. If Jackson does not have his heart in it, why play him?

Drop Jackson to the VFL if he makes it clear that he is leaving. We need every man on board if we want to win the Premiership again this year.

Well I don’t know why I thought I saw him play with Bowey but I was obviously wrong. I think Laurie might get his debut this week then. I think we have to blood a tall forward with MacDonald out but I think Weideman may still get the nod over Van Rooyen because of his frame, but we shall see. Hopefully Jackson will play better if he sniffs another premiership.

Reckon Laurie is a sneaky outside chance for debut?

Laurie I believe has already played one game for Melbourne this year.

I would not believe a word out of Peter Bell and the Freo crowd until Luke Jackson speaks. I think their strategy is to create a dialogue that he is going to WA whether he is or not.

Some players were a bit slow to the ball and we did not move the ball with enough purpose. If we play like that next week, Port will beat us.

The crowd is too small for Petracca which is why he only has his 9 touches to half time.

“…..Jackson will probably still be injured. ..”
Just wondering on what basis do you say this?  Knowledge or speculation or MFCSS?

The word ‘probably’ is based upon a supposition. Probably is nearly always speculation. It is more of you can’t have too much good news and Goodwin talked about Gawn coming back in his presser but Jackson was never mentioned.

In Gawn out Ben Brown. Jackson will probably still be injured. Weideman tried his guts out and will be rewarded. He ‘played his role’. That is a favourite Goodwinism! Mitch Brown looked dangerous in patches. Kade Chandler will get a regular run next year.

Viney is the true god, which is why he wears Kenny Dalglish’s Number 7. Oh sorry, wrong sport! 😂

If he was not always injured, I thought Joel Smith had shown some ability as a tall forward, but that was not persevered with and I think we are all in with JVR and Weideman. I reckon we may recruit another tall forward in this draft.

OMG. Can you imagine Tex and May on the  [censored] together. Caroline Wilson and others will be following them everywhere with their little note pads, whenever they head off to a swanky restaurant. Don’t forget Bernie Vince would be joining in with his famous antics, as Tex’s best mate over here.

If we play like we did last week then we will win every game coming home. Every team in the competition is terrified of a Viney and May led pressure game. I don’t think anyone can go with us when we are in that zone.
