That's the unknown... they were on a third day wicket yesterday and it didn't look like deteriorating for at least the first two sessions today. By that time it could be game over for us. Definitely need one if not two wickets in the first hour

Big "if"

Jake Lever well what can you say... I suppose he came back from his ACL but his AFL form was ordinary. Probably should have had one or two more runs at VFL level on his comeback. Expecting a lot more in 2020 if he is to justify his salary and trade price. Jury well and truly out.

played 6 games for the year at 27 years of age. Big question mark with him for 2020

nah... we don't review and /or look back

Being an MFC supporter does strange things to us all. Presently watching a storm brew up over the Straits of Malacca

bit worried about the cricket BBO. Not sure my fragile psyche could handle a close one. Hopefully 2or 3 wickets in the first hour and then some quiet enjoyment of the urn returning home.

must say I'll never quite think of Oktober Fest ever the same again

Just slowly going through the Crows game day forum on BigFooty Lots of sack the coach etc but I did like this one... This year was an aberration sure. But next year, just you wait. Just like 2018 was an aberration.

but he is redeemed and on the path of goodness now surely

perhaps but think of the increased egg and bacon roll sales at Casey as we all head out there to watch the return of the messiah.

haven't done the maths but quickly looking at the percentages Richmond would need to win by 70 plus to make any change to the order of the top 4.

my perverse logic is founded in the context of redemption. He may just want to show us he can do it. Don't think it would work with any other club. At the very least we get a depth player and hell our depth isn't great

Jack ... Watts I mean. Could probably get him for peanuts and who knows what he might do for us.

If Garlett remains we are in trouble.It means we have no one and/or can recruit no one to fill the small forward role. Perhaps we are in trouble as we seem to be on most lines in our team.

Kelly is out of contract and has publicly stated he wants to go home. Cats know they will be screwed.

Doggies doing it relatively easy heading for the home turn. Time to get some solace by visiting the Crows and Port fan forums. Links anyone..please

Trac is in contract for next year. Cats cannot offer draft picks alone so it would take their first pick which is only 2 picks before our present second and a reasonable player. It all comes down to assessing whether 2019 form is the best we get out of him. I really have no idea on that score.

coach killer ?

so if Bulldogs win both Adelaide teams and Hawks miss. If Bulldogs lose Hawthorn replace the Bulldogs unless one of the Adelaide teams has a BIG percentage boost in which case they go in. Also if Bulldogs lose Essendon ends up seventh whereas if Bulldogs win Essendon end up eighth. Am I correct? Very appropriate that Bulldogs are playing on Mars Stadium Interesting that it's 12 games gets you in the eight... so not much different to most years where it's 13 guarantees a spot.

does anyone know the rules on colluding in the PSD. Assuming a deal can be done with GC and a money deal with Langdon it seems to be a no brainer. In the past I recall players saying I will only go to club X and it was frowned on. Perhaps different if Langdon merely said he wants to come to Melbourne (city) thus ruling out GC

Casey are out Box Hill by 14.... minutes to go
