COVID & AFL 2021
Probably/ possibly with advances in the vaccination tweaks and other interventions even a new strain will only see the targeted lockdowns we are being told to accept now. Other than that though " high probability of back to back " seems wildly optomistic. Double chance yes,but as we speak opposition coaches with an eye to finals are analysing the Dees game in a way they could never be bothered to do previously. A few injuries and we' re ripe ...

What’s your favourite GOAL from the Grand Final?
Righto ....under 12's,was that the geography teacher filling in after school? Choco may have mentioned looking for the player you plan to kick to because that seems to have improved, but goals don't move ..which isnwhy players can snap goals blind I am pretty sure Gus knew both where he was on the ground and where the goals were, because he turned around and seemed to look straight at them before he ran in aiming the ball at the middle of said target.

Mine was Gus who walked back ,ball in hand, as we listened to BT preaching that he hadn't turned and looked at the goal as if it was a mortal sin....then he turned around,ran in and slotted the middle. Fancy being paid to be a pompous fool who gets pretty much everything wrong..the perfect job for Brian Taylor

Gary Bukenara on Demon’s 2021 List
Weideman needs more time..but it's not as if he hasn't been gifted plenty already

Gary Bukenara on Demon’s 2021 List
Ollie's kicking no longer looks like much of a problem to me but you have nailed Fritsch . B+ for the reason you offered

Delistings 2021
I reckon it wasn't just the mosquito forwards...he kept Oscar on the list for several seasons by being 3rd up against big bodies

Delistings 2021
Good call butv it's a shame the finals came a season too late for him. One of my favourites Bashed up his body bailing out Oscar imo

"Jurrah’s mixed feelings ahead of Dees’ grand final" - Age article
I took a Welsh mate to a Dees/ Bombers game. It was just awful crepe but in the 3rd quarter my mate said...you know if all the other players went home we could just watch that guy...pointing to LJ gliding down the Members flank ,out of nowhere,ball in hand. His game was like a kangaroo leaping to catch sunlight in his hands .

Thanks Jonesy - Retirement
They better win this flag or it's just another retirement that was due.

Sam Weideman re-signs until 2023
The thing about Weideman is that all you have to do is circle him,no body contact is required ,and he will spill the mark. This thread should be titled " Weed what can we get for him from any Club we want to disadvantage next season?"

TMAC's game
Well if MFC wins the flag that's a no brainer. What's your reason for picking someone who can't carry an injury can't hold his form and doesn't even look like he's happy to be playing

How do Bulldogs do it?
It's an established lineage from Teddy "flick pass" Whitten written into the" secret rule book " and stored in the basement at AFL House

TMAC's game
Generally if Tom has two poor weeks and isn't smiling it leads to four or five bad weeks

Vale Charlie Watts
I think as a guitarist he's just there to keep Keith company. Mick Taylor doesn't get the credit he deserves. The Stones seem comfortable in their career longevity. Can't blame them ,they're good at it. But they are a cover band . First band I saw.....Palais theatre . Thanks mum

Vale Charlie Watts
Meant Bobbie...I was getting more flustered than embarrassed. At least you arnt correcting me about Ronnie's appalling " painting "
-
Vale Charlie Watts
Correct !! I went off my head....then ran with it without thinking.. Apology ... I kept thinking about Bobby Keyes. The rest is true though, a tight jazz fusion influenced band without Ronnie would be a rebirth with Jordan on drums. Rebirth of the band to honour Charlie

Vale Charlie Watts
He tours with them on every tour and album since about 1990 and has played with Miles Davis BB King,Sting,Clapton,Armatrading to name a few. Steve Jordan drummed with Keef and the expensive Winos as well as Sprigsteen and John Mayer He played on Dirty Works when Charlie was drinking and doing smack....no specific credits like with Mick Taylor on Exile. He's a jazz fusion drummer ,a perfect fit with Darryl Jones and Keef. I thought you were a fan? There's a tight musically elite band right there to let Mick and Keef go out with something more than being their own cover band....which is Ronnie's only contribution ...a lousy artist and a journeyman on guitar They're a lesser band without Charlie for sure ( the only one who isn't a cliche ) but the are a lesser band WITH Ronnie.

TMAC's game
The thing with TMac is that either injured or negative head space seems to go on for weeks....he's a liability but not as much as Weidmann...interchange so he can use his aerobic capacity when needed
-
Vale Charlie Watts
I suspect they will construct one in the vault before too long. Steve Jordan will fill the spot better than Ron Wood covers for Mick Taylor....Let it Bleed, Exile Ya Ya's Goats Head Soup and its only Rock and Roll. So 2 of the run of the greatest sequence in Rock history. Sway is basically his track( no credit at all).Ron is basically a session muso for a great covers band . Jordan plays on some Stones tracks now actually Darryl Jones on sax now Bobby Keyes is gone brings the jazz genius that Charlie had Ronnie offers nothing at all. Mick, Keith, Jordan and Jones would be a tight band if they could find a guitarist or just stick Wood in the background
