That's like a newly elected PM saying that he's humbled by the electorates choice

It's probably already been noted but if he's not Robbos pick then he may well be a good choice

Ha ha my bad.. I read that you wrote " ruin" rather than "run "!! In my defence I was born in Geelong and other than the home ground advantage favouritism thing I still have a soft spot for them. Last years premiership team was "complete ", brilliantly prepared and Selwood and Dangerfield firmly turned the game when required after half time. I hope Trac and Clarrie can become as precisely effective as career partners. I rather be playing the Cats for this year's flag than last year's. I detest Richmond who were the Club that stole MFC' s home ground advantage

Tough on Dangerfield..more people hate him than recognise how valuable he is to his team. You need to grow up When Clarrie can produce a coherent sentence people will realise how good he is.

I have already said how pleased I am to have been mistaken. I am pretty sure the " please please please pathos" had zero influence though.

I was wrong and I'm pleased about it. Next...mark of the year #never satisfied

When Grundue did it in his game and set up a goal I thought it was genius. I reckon the AFL players sit around in pubs talking about doing it ,then they practise in the car park after training because they don't want the coach to see it on game day until they get it sorted.

Spargs has added " screamers" to his repertoire. Something Kossie hasnt got yet....on game day at least( smile)

Long Room..?? Tie required

History says that the coach doesn't " manage"

A fine balance? the report was undisciplined and really bad judgement, that's a long way from fine line. It should be pretty easy to adjust to avoid that and go back to blocking the tackler so Trac can dribble leg breaks through the goal from the boundary

If he signs again the contract should include mogadon in his orange juice. Slow down until you actually need to go fast son

Hows Jackson going ? Are we missing him yet?

Might be an idea to try Schachie when he's ready don't you think? I guess we will have to wait until he's the sub in about round 20 though

They show every sign of being on their last legs and I'm a fan of both of them. Weid ( of whom I was not a fan)was being used much more suitably to his natural skills by the Bombers on Sunday . If they can get Brown fit and kick on the lead it's problem solved. I doubt it will happen though Part of TMacs history was that he could run up and down the ground as well as stand tall in the middle of a pack. I think the runnings gone.

In general that's what I am used to. The first quarter against the Swans was a show stopper

There has to be a solution to the forward line that doesn't include exposing May Hibberd and Lever to their injury management issues. Max behind the ball down back and Petty continues his synergy with usual defenders.

Any more hangers? He could coach Kossi

He's playing injured

He was telling us all year they were fixing the forward line and they rarely needed to come from behind because they squandered leads. Still waiting

It's Anzac day I believe..we are all for peace, no?

The coach is going to address that ..hes told us so a number of times . Otherwise I agree with you. Reason says we are currently making up numbers for the finals. Sort of like a new Footscray

Ok I'll bite. Yes I think that's a good idea and especially that we shouldn't play the national anthem before the corporate Grand Final. I don't actually have a problem with acknowledging Anzac Day at the game itself given its importance in our national story. But I reject the conflation of the game seemingly being promoted as THE recognition of the remembrance. Of course most of the Australian population don't even know who is playing so it's either irrelevant or an extraordinary case of inflated self importance

Those are two completely different things. I mowed the lawn and watched the Pies play like MFC fans can only dream of. Can they trade Kossi for Nick Daicos please
