And still it tears shreds of TFS.

Showers are predicted for Sunday. I fear the rain allot. We are not good down below.

He was pretty honest about his own form at the after match function. Said he wasnt super, for Casey. And that if we want him back, we may need to ring bails for him. Might be a few weeks away id say.

Spot on I reckon. I can not for the life of me, understand the mind set of those who think Newton did enough to warrant selection again. If you call shirking contests, half arsed chase downs, and no disposal or goal kicking skills to speak off, enough to warrant another game then absolutely. At least Miller offers something each and every week - regardless of skills. Dunn would be very unlucky IMO to miss. He is improving each week. He was named in the best for The Age. I would like to give him more time.

In the 4th QRT, when he beat his opponent the AFL members wing, shrugged a tackle, and kicked to advantage....it was game changing!! I was with a mate today who has been living in the UK for the past 18 months, and never rated chip that highly,and he was amazed how much he had come along in that time. Were on a winner with him.

Is that you Cameron?

What people need to remember, however well we 'competed' on Saturday, is that we did not come away with the 4 points. Yes we improved, Yes our pressure was fantastic, but we did not win! We cant go treating a 1 point loss to Collingwood as a victory. Otherwise we wont be winning a game all season. The real test will come with week to see if we can back it up.

How the HELL is Slyvia still a week away??

Did I read that title correctly? Thats not exactly true. Remember Essendon making the finals last year with only 10 wins!

I would be amazed if Sylvia didnt play. Considering he was a chance for both R1 and 2. Will add a bit of polish in the middle.. very much looking forward to this week.

What exactly is the point of ANOTHER bag Bailey thread? What does it achieve?

Dang! Oh well. Get behind Bails!!!! GO DEES!

Unlike allot of others, I am prepared to get behind Bailey, staff and players, and back them in. It is still R1 after all. However, I was thinking today that if things ( god forbid ) really did go pare shaped over this year, I mean really bad, and Bailey got the arse ( which wouldn't happen), theres this guy coming out of contract that coaches the Swans. One of the best in the business I am told. Just a day dream, but I wouldn't mind it at all.

I did say 'generally'. and, yes.

So C & B did you leave?? To be honest, I this time round, I wouldn't be disappointed if you did cobba..

Pull down our pants and....well you can fill in the blanks. We will improve. We have to. generally speaking, we don't play that poorly against Collingwood. But its going to be the same old story of, where are our goals going to come from?

haha, good to see you back Yze. Its been bland around here.

Your not one of those are you C & B?

So let me get this straight the AFl will allow a F#@KING dirt bike on the MCG for pre game entertainment, but they wont let families on the turf to have a F#@KING kick to kick??? Something is seriously wrong!

Nothing like a bit of round 1 optimism.

I dont know about that. Its a bit of a hefty price tag, for the average mums and dads to get off the couch and out too the game.

Iam interested, and would be willing, but is there any particular reason why there are no Victorian teams included?? I mean, the pre game address for QB sounds a little more interesting than R8 - Melb v West Coast.

Dont see how 'the source' could be The Age. All columnists in todays footy mag had us finishing last or 15th. Will be another looong year me thinks.....but I cant wait.

Well the footy gods MAY be with us for once. Reported in The Age today that he MAY return as early as R1. Jnr said that he may don a helmet and and play as long as the medicos give him the all clear. That would be great news!

To take pleasure in others misfortune. It was a reference to another post, but i cant be bothered finding it now..... I think the moment passed.
