Norm Smith's Curse

Id say Dawes, lumumba and a few others actually hurt us today - as in their contributions generally made us worse. Vince looked knackered as did vanders, jones and Tyson. when we beat geelong we shut up shop for the year.

I dont think we were outcoached we were just poor.

I agree that inclusions if Grimes, Toumpas and Newton or Michie will help. Kids are tired and the saints midfield is gonna be hard to combat.

Dont rate motlop as an a+ myself.

No doubt he is a potential gun. Gc will play hard ball at the trade table.

From what i hear the question is not whether Dion will request a trade to Melbourne but what they will want for him. I velieve he has at least one family member who lurks here on occasion.

Not true - casey smashed port and Michie and Riley had monster games. Done enough imo. Dawes is behind Pedo - he's best is behind him

I wish some people would stop commenting on footy. You dont get it. Just let it go. i bet the bloke's like 60 too.

Just a dumb comment / statement

Gees you post some utter drivel.

Garland will stay. Howe has already packed his bags. Dion is a pipe dream.

Keep an eye on the instagram feeds as the night progresses. They might run in to Beamer and Col Sylvia

Saw many of those quite differently but always enjoy

Newton should have played today.

not really.

Newton should have played today and say what you will about Toumpas but at least he tries for four quarters

Hoges was pants-downed by Hurley but was limping from half time.

Gawn was good around the ground and won most of the hit outs - which were nearly all ineffective i agree

I sat there in the cold all day after getting satched in rain to watch the most dismal footy game of the season

Goal kicking was poor but part of that was from essendon's defensive pressure. 1. We let them play on their terms for three quarters. 2. We couldnt take a mark to save us. 3. explain to me how gawn competing for taps against a bloke who got delisted by Adelaide and a midfield at full strength against half vfl quality mids results in numerous centre clearances to them in the first quarter and them out spreading us. We just didnt turn up. Simple as that. only really rated Gawn and Watts today.

I was worried last night about this game but now im convinced we will make a statement tomorrow. Thy will be put to the sword. I call it the Tom Gillies cup.

Howe to gws with our third round pick for Treloar. Get it done!

The iceberg cometh!

Yepp - im tipping it. My dread is that we may lose this game.

Im also nervous. For the record i think we may lose.
