I can't. I blew $200 on the Hawks, thinking "we never beat these [censored]. Why will today be any different"....

Agree. I love the look of it and would be happy to see that as our Sir Doug Nicholls round kit. Really like the Bombers design too. Ours is growing on me after I initially didn't think much of it.

Chandler looks to be throwing the Eagles player into the ground instead of just "bringing him down". Won't be annoyed if he gets suspended. Just as I was furious that Hawkins was let off. Jesus that bastard gets away with blue murder.

Really can't work out where the "speculators" are coming from here. What exactly would Brayshaw be moving for if he decided to leave? Is he unhappy with his position in the side? If he is, is it about playing in the middle/on ball to get more kicks? Just can't see it myself. It's not as if he is fringe and is looking for a regular spot. He would be one of the top 10 picked and can play in just about every role except K.P. If it's not money or family (and his folks live in Melb) what on earth could it be? I reckon he will stay. Be interesting to see if Tim Lamb and co have done the sums correctly.

Yeah good point. Didn't consider the insurance angle. Selfish and inconsiderate.

Not a big deal I wouldn't have thought. Every second person I work with has driven unlicensed at some stage. Hope he is looked after by the club.

With the latest 2 outs, it's getting harder for me to temper my expectations. Still happy that my favorite oppo player in McGovern will be playing. The guy is a weapon.

I'm just gambling responsibly.

Changes that didn't kill anyone, and made perfect sense once implemented. Decimal currency Weekend work Women getting the vote. Twilight Grand Final. Can't understand why anyone has a problem with this.

A much better list than their ladder standing indicates. There are problems at GWS that Cameron couldn't fix. Will require a tough coach to get things right. Maybe the AFL will tap Clarko the way they did Roos?

Not to be a smartass but that seems to be our aim every week.

Lamumba is not indigenous Heritier believes he has a case against Collingwood for racist behavior. Racism is not limited to being committed against our indigenous community.

Silly Billy, of course not. We just don't look to be playing with that intensity at the moment. This is not a premiership game, it's a H&A game against a terribly out of form side playing at home. Of course it's possible. Very possible. I'm just not expecting it.

Sean Darcy Josh Daicos Sam Collins Charlie Curnow Shai Bolton Jordan Dawson Tom Green Aaron Naughton Zac Bailey Callum Mills What do I win?

Yes I did. Money / mouth.

His kicking out of defence is far too valuable for him to be moved alsewhere. Agree that Riv has not been at the top of his game recently and may be at risk of a rest.

Wanna have a wager on it? I reckon our "system" does not really lend itself to huge scores. We are thrashing sides without it showing on the scoreboard because of our defence-first game. I'm thinking around 40-50 pts barring Covid interruptions. Might even be closer.

Hard to hate the perf sides now, after the way they embraced us for the Grand Final. Actually, I lied. [censored] the eagles. Lets keep the bastards goalless all day.

Exactly what he is. Wants to be the AFL Colin Kapernick.

Don't get me started on "Secretaries Day" A cynical money grab by the florist industry.

Good take. Weid has had his chances and failed to play a standout game, although I admit he has shown some improvement at times. Van Rooyen just needs to keep putting his name in front of the selectors and he could be wearing a medal come September.

I admit that my memory is deteriorating, but I'm sure we chased Amon a few years back. Maybe it was around the time we got Langdon? Very interesting if true. It shows that we may have more salary cap space than we think and that we are looking at all avenues to keep the flag window open. (the conspiracy theorist in me says that it is planning for life ex-Angus)

Flowers contested marking for a bloke as skinny as he, was phenomenal. And you could put him at half back, wing or half forward and he was just as dangerous. I tend to not rate the players of yesteryear compared to todays, but this guy would have been something else playing in todays team. Agree with Nasher in that we are unlikely to see a group like this again in our lifetimes. Savor it.

Ah, righto. And here I was thinking the "3 headed dragon/monster" was English/Bruce/Naughton I'll take ours every day of the week thanks.
