Robot Devil

And the Billy Smedts one from last night.

One of the "experts" on the '730 Report' alluded to it being beneficial to muscle mass. Not sure how that applies to Trengove or whether it has other properties.

4/4 for me. We have so many away games late in the season that I need to load up on a footy fix early.

No, but 50% of the time, he's right every time.

I'm so [censored] off right now. The sad thing is, if this ruins our club I will walk away from AFL completely.

Robbo seems to do OK on game day though. I think he has found his niche as King of the Kids.

Also, Mitch Clark being dragged down during a marking contest - no free kick. WCE player being paid a "mark" in the goal square after four other players had touched it. Umpire #28 was clearly biased against us or in love with the Eagles.

"Enter Sandman" was still playing as the team was hovering in front of the banner. Honestly I don't know why we need a song to "run out to" as it takes 10 seconds to run up the players race to the boundary. It should just be Grand Old Flag loud and several times over. And isn't it obvious? The bugler has been fired.... out of a cannon... into the Yarra.

Ashton Hams is a stooge. The umpires are a disgrace. That is all.

Perhaps rather than a priority pick it could take a form that would appease all parties. Any team that wins 5 games or less in a season could receive assistance with their "development program". This could be in the form of additional AFL resources for coaching, data collection/analysis or simply helping to connect the players with highly qualified people who can provide a different perspective on pathways to success. Essentially, a helping hand does not have to be a handout.

Yeah. He's hiding out on the same island as Elvis and J.D Salinger.

Probably back and front page of the Herald Sun tomorrow. *sigh*

I've been on the Southern Cross Wheel. Closed a week later. PS. I'm not that fat.

Well I sure wasn't thinking about how much I hate my job on the train ride home on Saturday night. No matter how crap work is, the footy sure put things in perspective. And it took my mind off my troubles, even if it was only to mull over what was wrong with our club.

Tonya Harding does not recommend.

I'm not much of a football tactician but I propose the following: When we have the ball: Run hard and into space away from the opposition to create opportunity or protect the ball carrier. Eg. Shepherding When we do not have the ball: Attempt to obtain the ball - hard ball get or loose ball get or tap to advantage. When the opposition have the ball: Every player should be in an opposition player's pocket ready to tackle, spoil or generally harass. Am I underthinking it?

And it happens week after week.... I cannot remember the last time we had a proper clearance from a centre bounce. Other teams seem to do it but we seem to be tackled the instant we take possession.

I thought the "Start new thread" button had won the punchable head poll. It's been copping an absolute kicking for nigh on 4 days.

Face facts: anyone who turned up to the game yesterday is not a "fair weather supporter" They all left a few years ago when this downward spiral began. We, the rusted on barnacles, are sick of watching us get thumped when with a bit of application and determination we could not only stay in a game but win it. I refer you to the Gold Coast Suns who kept cracking at the Saints until they got the win. For the record, I did not boo the team and never would. I left 5 minutes early instead.

I see your point. Sadly I think he cannot separate the two.

I do not like the idea of exposing Carey to our younger players. "Grope and punch, grope and punch.... It's all I know" - Drederick Tatum

I have a feeling the MFC will need a balaclava and a gun to get my membership money next year if this goes on all year.

Clark now subbed. Blease on.

Clark back out there for the final qtr.

We're barely on the field. It's time to start punching. It's the only way we'll get a goal.
