  1. Jones lost 3 or 4 contests in a row at one stage,including to Kirby,a first gamer,who goaled iirc..He looked shagged. Gawn was down- shepherded out or plain out marked .Needs consistency of 2016 if we are going places. Hogan was off. TMac had a shocker. Watts was just passable . Jetta down on his best. Viney was out . Thats our leadership group not contributing. Lewis stood up but he is an import. Pedo was good but wasted a couple . Garlett is hit and miss- poor last third of year. Hannan had a very good run at afl for a few minor cameos. Hibberd had a rare shocker. Melksham got towelled by his man. Vince average. Hunt and Petracca were the only bright lights.ANB andOmac ok. We then deserved exactly what we got over in WA. The spiritual leaders of the club went into their shells or didn't perform to anywhere near their peak.
  2. Jack Watts can shoulder the blame for all of it.
  3. If I knew a decent Shaman then Pannel,Nichols and Chamberlain would all be floating down the river as eel food.
  4. It's astounding to think that people like Drew saw themselves as there to do a decent job of describing the game . These half witted sh!tmen of today disappear up their own rings in a effort to out stupid each other and promote themselves. RIP Drew.
  5. We all have our bad days. He was molested up forward several times.
  6. Pfft..... Is there anything he won't do for money.
  7. His career was cut short.
  8. We should all bring a cheese platter and leave the cheap pies for theCollingwood kids who's parents spend all their money on ice .
  9. Viney in for Vince or Hannan is our best team apart from perhaps Frost in there somewhere.
  10. When we were young I had to get up early and milk the cow before school . Actually that"s not entirely true. I didn't"t have to milk the cow but I wanted to. Also,it wasn't my cow and it wasn't really a cow.
  11. He is a great attacking defender but his aerial work is mixed. He doesn't combine well with other talls and often spoils his own team mates. Strong as an ox with ball in hand and a great runner. Breaks tackles and has lightning pace. could easily have run the length of the ground a few weeks ago but he passed off.
  12. A 15 goal win would end Buckley and probably Eddies tenure and might give us a good push onto the finals.
  13. What Chook said.
  14. Offshore tax havens, my rugged good looks,the girls I've loved before,wine,weed and my rude good health. The qualified MFC success so far is what I expect it to be. I'm beyond gratitude for a few wins. We seek the grail.
  15. Stats re disposals are misleading. We all still love yelling "Kick the bloody thing" Truth is we are stealing a lot of ball off the opposition and running away by a weave of handball.With no forward to kick to. The percentage indicates a good defensive mindset. The Sydneys are the only big losses.They both have an ability to win it and get it free by foot . We have displayed an ability to shut games down and " win easily" by less than 2 goals. Thrashing a lowly side is irrelevant now. Our only problem is closing the gap on GWS and Sydney. A young side with everything to play for will only improve in effort and execution . We are a high tackling team and we do overuse the ball. Having Pedo and Brayshaw mitigates our handball happy issues.Both get high "metres gained". When we play well our handballs are wider- a la Nevilles magnificent attacking 20-25 metre hand passes yesterday. We need a lift in marks from Max and Tom Mac to play more efficiently.
  16. Bannon leaving is interesting. He was certainly the brains of the current administration. then again,Obama did two terms copying the cadence of MLK whilst the contents were thin air. It is fairly easy to see the racial divide in the states re Charlottesville. Half the country invests itself in destroying America and a fringe element of Trump supporters can't even gather to preserve a 150 year old statue without being attacked by urine wielding ,chanting drones. "They here in Charlottesville cos they raycisss. gotta stop the rayciss.
  17. You make my point. Australian terrorists are the epitome of stupid. Hence why 13 major attempts at terrorism have been thwarted here. More Aussies dead-you keep you tin foil hat on.
  18. Stunned to see Pedobear running and bouncing down the wing. The last goal was brilliant. Thats something Goodwin can take credit for.When he was fat he couldn't have done that ( twice) or even once.
  19. They got a goal when he went down . He got up but had no impact.
  20. Karate chop him to the throat.
  21. ANB - Joeboys punching bag.
  22. Not happy Bernie. We effectictively start 1 goal down if he kicks out . How many times does he have to chip it too the opp. The umpiring was putrid. Tom Mac was rank first half. I'm convinced the umpire are instructed to make games closer by paying stupid weak frees that represent their lame souls and evil manipulative characters. Worst game in a while
  23. If we get a few goals clear I would like to see a crushing occur in the second half . Failing that a one point win against an improved Bears team will do .
  24. They either did or they didn't. You're just another to and from to me.
  25. Yes no doubt they would prefer Captain Cook never came . I daresay many of they convicts would have preferred to stay in England as well. it was an era of universal exploration that saw much of the world "discovered" . Unfortunately we cannot change the past. Many of our ancestors were brought here as slaves of the British Empire . Aboriginals were used to track convicts and vice-versa. I would be extremely irate if I had Sydney to myself and then a bunch of foreigners sailed in and divided up the place.
