  1. suspect it was an AFL directive but ideally day before and light training on the playing oval.
  2. Sounds about right but Hunt played today Likely to be slightly wet next Saturday night
  3. No... unless Petty fails
  4. Not quite but shades of 2004 with the injuries hitting us as we reach the top. Any more news on Brown? Smith down at VFL level is not good either.
  5. Well ... Golllllllllllllllllllllllly we're there it wasn't pretty but it will feel better in the morning Go Dees
  6. mmmm is this what it is like when a win feels like a loss Strange feeling for an MFC supporter
  7. 6.3 to 1.1 rinse and repeat please
  8. well well not exactly how I thought we would go against the bottom team
  9. Why did you have to remind us of how we lost the unloseable game
  10. No crowd at the WA footy is the latest news
  11. much preferred to the 3:20 time slot which in winter means it's cold and dark by games end.
  12. Viney... having a good run of form and ... The foot Has the curse returned
  13. That was an emphatic Brisbane win. Wonder if they have found some real form
  14. spit or in the oven sounds wonderful
  15. that worked well last time we did something similar
  16. Enjoy the run... i certainly shall The challenge always was in the second half of the season. When I saw the draw I thought we could with luck go 8-3 or better for the first half Brisbane in Alice is looking tough along with the Dogs game Let's face it while we have had a few finals appearances the seasons themselves have been mainly excruciatingly close.
  17. Will definitely be a big game. Cats kicked themselves out of the game.
  18. love talkback after a Pies loss
  19. Looking ugly for the Pies
  20. Good to see the AFL continuing last night with their distancing model by leaving great swathes of the upper deck empty. Expect the same with Pies v Suns today.
  21. Simple tactics... both teams denied the other the corridor and played the boundary. Thought Dogs would be smarter but the boundary/handballing won them the Cup in 2016
  22. mmmm looking like a possibility yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa !
  23. Given what I have invested so far that sounds like a bargain. I will contact them immediately PS am now ticketed up for $229 Couldn't help but notice the GF packages but that may be getting ahead of myself
  24. Here's a good article on why the Saints aren't firing Jack Steele, Brad Crouch, Bradley Hill and Seb Ross are all winners of AFL club best-and-fairest awards. Along with Zak Jones and Jack Billings they are all between 25 and 27. This is a group that should be close to the peak of its powers. And yet it is misfiring. The Age approached coaching staff from rival clubs - speaking this week on the condition of anonymity - in a bid to better understand where St Kilda are being let down.... A theme from the rival views espoused was that the Saints had been drawn towards the ball too much and not paying enough respect defensively to their opponents. While a lack of cohesion - Crouch is only four games into his St Kilda career - was identified as part of the explanation, there was also a suggestion that the Saints’ midfielders looked overly focused on themselves and not in playing their part in a system. https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/what-is-going-wrong-with-st-kilda-s-misfiring-midfield-20210429-p57nnt.html
