Return to Glory

Honestly, Bontenpelli kicked a ball across ground and Brian Taylor carried on like he had just painted the Sistine Chapel.

Just saw a Bulldog player simply drop the ball. Play on. They really do get a great run at it.

AF, there is a point, however, where the club has to make a decision as to whether he's good enough. When he's on he's terrific but this is now few and far between. I'd argue that he is still speculative but barely. I'd love for him to come good but if I'm being pragmatic, it may be time for both club and player to move on. And maybe we try another speculative as we're not losing anything by trying.

Did they not recently make a change re a boy (forget the name) we had put time and effort in up Darwin way? And what do you know, he's now probably going to the Gold Coast Basket Case.

It's doing my head in. There's no doubt we should be happy about the win....if you actually want to be happy. Hard going reading relentlessly negative comments.

Reading a few of the comments here, I can only assume we're 30 - 40 points down.

I’ve got to admit TA, it’s become a total lottery. And on a separate note, what happened to kicking in danger? It appears to no longer be called.

Not at all shocked that Buddy got off. Appears to get a better run at it than most.

Still in it.

Such an upbeat Ceremony. Great to see a nod to macrame at the start

Don’t back down Dr D. Haters gonna hate. But you’ll show them. Oh yes you will. No -one will ever doubt DD.

I’ve been meaning to say, you are genuinely and undoubtedly, the smartest person on Demonland. Not by a little way but by a substantial margin. We all think it. We just don’t say it. Your comments are insightful, fearless and eloquent. And funny. Always. I just feel that your genius is wasted on us dummies. Why bother? You’ve done what you can. Maybe it’s time to move on to bigger things. Dustin Fletcher Hanger? Or just a sabbatical?

Absolutely gutted by today, partly because I have seen Hawthorn get the better of us so many times. It really felt like they 'rope-a doped' us tonight. Small beef irrelevant to the outcome - every time Matthew Richardson does special comments for our games, he spends the entire time barracking for the opposition. Both he and Darcy were pathetic. And I'm not sure why Bailey didn't go for goal.

Narcissistic nonsense.

The Dogs do get a great run

Stop

Izak Rankine is simply a waste of talent

An upset Suns win would be a beautiful result. Doubt it but, hey..

Absolutely

That’s an interesting one. I have liked (mostly) when Hunt has run into the forward line as a result of link up play. However, I have never thought he’s had much forward craft. So to start him off in the forward half of the ground doesn’t appear to do him favours. Just an observation

Then I was the year above you

To be fair, the year above him (from memory) was Julian Knight

Have become the same SWYL. Going to the match, no problem. Watching on TV, particularly interstate, tough ask. And when I do watch, the family watch me to witness assorted mannerisms.
