What

Why would you expect that?

His career average of 22.1 disposals per game would be 3rd at the club just behind N Jones and B Vince, and just ahead of Viney and Tyson.

Is Lynden Dunn available? T Mac can take one of Tex or Jenkins, but the other one will likely smash O Mac if he were our 2nd key defender

Good win by the Saints, but Geelong aren't a great team. It is a very even season. Our win down at the Cattery last year was more impressive, even though the Cats have improved this year.

The All-Australian centre half-back remains unwilling to commit to the Bombers. Essendon could have cashed in on Cale Hooker’s departure by securing a free agency compensation selection in the top handful of national draft selections. But is understood if Hurley left as a free agent, it would be as a delisted free agent for which the club receives no compensation.

Would be just our luck to have a trade period where a more than usual number of guns want to come home to Vic and we have no 1st rounder to trade.

Dont think anyone reckons they are a basket-case right now or this season BD, just that they arent a contender And considering how old their list is and lack of young talent, they will be stuffed for a long long time post 2016

Terrible idea and Gil Mclachlan is a total moron. If you want to be American [censored] off to the U.S.

11 wins We will beat Adelaide, Carlton, Gold Coast, Fremantle and at long last, St Kilda.

Max has again made the Team of the Week http://www.afl.com.au/news/2016-06-21/team-of-the-week-round-13 He must surely be the favourite to be AA ruckman now

I love the game of footy but the 'personalities' that are born from it are worse than poison.

The best forward line in the league vs our undermanned and inexperienced defensive We must smash them in the midfield

The tackle count tells the story of the game

He looked like a beast vs Swans, couldnt believe what I was seeing. Standing up in tackles and busting through packs, I honestly thought it was Hogan a couple of times.

Biggest game in years. Win and we stay in the finals hunt, lose and its likely over.

Amazing what happens when you get the best player in the comp and give up sweet fark all in return #equalization

Angus you beauty. Cant wait til hes back in the Dees team. Am very excited to see Hulett debut too. And the Spencil seems to have improved. Thank god we have a seasoned competitive ruck in case Gawn needs a rest. Can see them playing in the same team soon depending on matchups.

Gawny will be AA ruckman, Goldy has dropped off and looks sore. Nic Nac and Tippett are both our long term.

no AF, I have always said he was a solid B grader. Copped a lot of heat for it during trade period when the Prestia thread was very busy.

If North lose they will be 5th, How hilarious is that Or 4th if Dees beat Swans. Which we will.

LOL the tears from Essendope and Worsfold are great. Nice feeling to be one of the clubs kicking them while they are down. I hope all other clubs join the party.

We will have three A graders by mid 2017 - Gawn, Viney and Hogan. Neither Prestia or Jones are A graders, and thats not a knock on them they are both absolute guns.

I reckon hes signed and sealed at Melbourne. Hopefully we get him as a delisted free agent.due to him beind doped up by his cheating club.

Previous career best was 22 goals in 2013 He has 24 already in 2016.

I tuned into the Dees-Doggies curtain raiser womens game a few weeks ago, not expecting much. After all it is a 'womans' sport, and that usually means dead boring. But I couldn't turn the TV off, it was bloody awesome to watch. I will be watching more of it when it starts up again, and Ill buy a membership for the MFC womens team for sure. I have no doubt the league will be a huge success.
