Zac Dawson played 166 games and played according to the team gameplan. Rarely had a bag kicked on him. Not many players have that good a career. Only 10% ever play 150 games.

Would like to hope that Weid can force his way in. He'll need 4 or five this afternoon with some solid relief rucking

Binman...I'm not suggesting we "put the cue in the rack" but as a supporter I am more interested in seeing positive development signs for the future. Our percentage probably means we need one more win than the other teams if you want to start dreaming.

Gold Coast and any one of the others.As you say most likely Adelaide but more that the law of averages says we have to luck onto a win. Would like to think we could win more but the form slump is so deep that it will take a fair while to fully emerge. Agree WCE are just chugging along as is Richmond but both teams are well in front of us at present. The loss to the Saints shows how low we have gone.

Hawks aren't very good and we struggled. Very much the false dawn I'm afraid. Being competitive in the lead up to the bye would be a comparative win for the season made better if the likes of Petracca and Stretch can start to show that they are the future. Good to see Hibberd have a decent game. We need another three years out of him at least.

no...will maybe win two of the next five

nah... went there thirty odd years ago to watch the Bears play the Dees.. we won...just All the empty stands are reserved seating ie, pay more....probably hasn't changed. May have changed

relativity... think about it

Brisbane getting the job done on Sydney so far/ PS may have spoken too early.. Bears have stopped

Has been a tactic they have used for at least three seasons. Takes away one player from downfield but is an interesting tactic

2kicks 7 handballs

was that the first of Gunston's 8 goals 2

Yawn.... another week another irrelevant game The usual.. just in it at half time 20 points down and then the goalless second half

we have dragons... and Gilli......mind you we had Sam as well but they dropped him

Agree... but please expand The defence is nothing spectacular The midfield has two or three performing old guys The forwards... well they have exceeded expectations. Yes....I'm jealous

have never thrilled to grey as a sporting colour... Is it the beige of clash jumpers Has always reminded me of US military underwear from the sixties... yeah it's another story

And to think I thought pre-season that we were better than Collingwood

Hypoxic training is not unusual. One version of it is training at altitude. This method though just sounds plain stupid and dangerous

Congratulations Dec and as many have said ..thanks to Drunk'n ... it is a journey shared. It's worthwhile taking a moment to think about how few players ever really make it at AFL level. That first game is a real milestone. https://www.reddit.com/r/AFL/comments/7iax40/what_percentage_of_afl_players_reach_each_games/ Game Milestone Number Of Players To Reach Milestone Percentage Of Players To Reach Milestone 10 7715 61.323% 50 3968 31.540% 100 2213 17.590% 150 1143 9.085% 200 560 4.452% 250 234 1.860%

And of course....Mary Hardy... a real professional

Tom Boyd and the Weid..... a certain amount of disappointing symmetry May they run free and both kick 10

Live sport was very rare at the time. The Penthouse club with its cross to the live trotting was gamebreaking. Most sports were super protective of their live viewing audiences. The real game changer was the broadcasting of the VFA match of the day on Sunday.

yep...under compensated by Freo and we over compensated the Wandering Suns. Great trade

I can only hope that such strange selections are a precursor to an amended gameplan. Perhaps we can play nearest the pin with the losing margin. Gunston to reprise his 2:8 of the finals or 8:2?
