I hope so, I'm sick of us being topic of the week this week...

Really poor 'Maldon'...they're getting opened up time and again.

Thanks 'Macca', my thoughts exactly. What a childish, ridiculous comment...what a DH.

I think that's the key 'dazzle', he's just not hitting the packs hard enough and until he does he stays at Casey.

They are a better team this year and I wouldn't undersell them. Very strong at both ends but the weakness is the midfield. If they get through with a fit list they will be dangerous, but that's a big if with the age of the stars and Cameron's dodgy hammy.

Probably ended up costing them the game with that brain fade. ...and on a similar note, the dogs have a couple of players with short arms. Did not commit to contact in marking contests in the 3rd Q. ...and another other note, Weightman. I don't know, the dives, the acting in general play, nearly ending the year of that kid at Geelong by taking his legs out. He needs a good kick up the backside by his coach for a start. At least the umpires have woken up to him. At the moment he's a liability in big games. Koz was the right pick that's for sure. ...and another, other, other note. What was Treloar thinking? If Smith didn't cost them the game, Treloar certainly did.

I'm not particular 'La Dee'... I hate them all.

They forget quickly... There is no game to be played so I think they just forgot.

That looks like a bad error by the boys there. Weitering is a walk up start in this team.

I think this is a good idea 'bin'... Despite the talk of Weid being the backup I think it's not working so we try something else. ..and you're right, he doesn't have the attributes to go into defence. In the end we need to find another 1 or 2 KPF's and can't afford to keep depth around for depth's sake. If Tommo can do it, it will prolong his career with us.

Companies from the USA know everything 'Red', the amazing thing is they will still pick someone currently working at head office for the role. Who would have seen that coming. With a bit of luck I will be wrong but it's been a closed shop for a while now.

We've got away with it for most of the season but we do miss Salem's toughness as well as skill down back.

The match was over...the only action you can take after the siren is your kick if it was awarded before the siren. Honestly I don't know if this is fact but pretty sure we will find out over the next few days. There was a reason the ump was on the mic to someone upstairs. My guess is to confirm the timing. Once confirmed, it was game over...go back & have your kick.

I'm pretty sure that the ump was checking online for the time line... The Tiges cost themselves the game anyway, should have put it away.

I don't see how it could be a 50 if he kicked it over after the siren.... Totally different...ours occurred during the game, not after the bell.

Wouldn't it be perfect if it was the 'Do Better' crew...

When I saw Dermott & analysis in the same sentence I should have known not to bother. Seriously one of the dumbest commentators in football. Uses long winded monologues to cover but how does the old saying go about opening your mouth & proving it…ah yes this is the one. Mark Twain

I think they are underselling some players... Salem is most definitely underrated...out of sight out of mind.

That's all well and good but only if we're stronger....

I take Carlton very seriously, i have for a couple of years now. You could see what they were building. I don't take the practice game as seriously as for one we were coming off the shorter pre season being the premiers. By the way...the umpire descent 50's (adjusted after our game) probably ended up costing us the win in the end...not bad for a team that was smashed in the midfield. Don't be too concerned as I'm pretty sure Goody and the forward scouts are keeping a good eye on all opposition including Carlton...

It was a practice match...not a match. Last season the dogs flogged us in a practice match. How did that stand up?

Fugazi...

According to Max 3 of them had a go at him...Simkin, Greenwood & I think the other was Thomas.

45 touches and he was being tagged...

McKay wasn't playing...
