When you think it couldn’t get any worse bb, this headline pops up in the news. The banana is one step closer to disappearing A fungus that devastates banana plants has now arrived in Latin America, the Colombian government confirms.

Can’t recall if it’s been mentioned before, interested to hear if any other clubs had spoken to him prior to his draft year, or if he was told other clubs might be keen on him. Thank you.

What’s happened to training the last couple of weeks? I’ve seen at least twice on the website training has been rescheduled away from Goschs, possibly to Casey but the surface looked well below standard a few weeks ago. A DL reporter posted a possible cancelation last week after only spotting a handful of players doing some rehab. Even the player training report videos by players has disappeared the last fortnight.

Lol Brown, team of the week for Grundy. Didn’t get a vote from either coach.

Sorry to part quote Praha, probably the most upsetting thing from the game for me and kids. Max looked genuinely gutted and hurt after some of the Pies’ goals. The boy spotted him shaking his head a few times and pointed it out.

It could be worse. Charlie Cameron’s haul of 6.1 was enough to outscore 3 teams this weekend and we weren’t one of them.

Interesting Wadda, if Salem was tagging Sidebottom like it’s being suggested elsewhere, it must have been only on Facebook because I didn’t see Salem anywhere near him during the game. Maybe others saw it at the game because i missed it if that was the case.

We need to find out why the Cleveland Browns in the NFL have the same luck as us and do the opposite.

If you want to see dumb, watch the last 2-3 minutes of the Freo/Saints game. Lyon has every right to bake a few of those dumbos, starting with B Hill.

JKH is certainly trying his hardest to stay on the list. We were hearing ‘close’ for an ANB extension two months ago only to be replaced by the sound of crickets now. I honestly thought we were over looking forward to trades and drafts yet, here we are again jumbo. We await with great interest.

On footy smarts, footy IQ or however you choose to label it, how many do we have running around at the moment? I’m talking more about positioning when the ball is in transit to either end of the ground. From observations at the grounds, other teams seem to have players in the right positions before the ball even gets to them. The Fritta forward/back debate has gone on all season and apologies if it’s been mentioned already but his 14 marks inside 50 since R17 have him ranked equal third-most in the comp. Not a bad effort by the guy in a team that lacks ‘connection’. The guy just knows what do inside 50. One play stood out to me yesterday about a player double guessing himself for one reason or another. I’m talking about the Varcoe goal late in the second term. The ball had worked its way into the Pies’ attacking 50 near the Southern stand pocket, JKH worked hard to run back to the goal square and plonked himself there on his own. When Varcoe got the ball out of the pack, JKH inexplicably ran out of the square to about 20 metres out directly in front to guard no one. Varcoe snaps on the left, JKH does a mad dash back but too late. The ball crossed the line at waist height. This isn’t a knock on JKH ( tried hard all game), he was angry enough at himself for moving out in the first place and allowing a goal that shouldn’t have gone through. Little moments like that make a difference and make we wonder if it’s a player that can’t handle the top level or the coaching expects too much from current players.

Bugger, Bummers can now post the ‘All The Goals’ video on their website.

Under the roof there’s a team that scored their first and only goal so far 21 seconds into the game Wadda. The other team is almost in triple digits. It’s glorious viewing on this chilly night.

Priority Pick for Suns is in the mail I reckon, not that it will help much......and Go Bulldogs!

A massive shout out to the lady in the front row of M52. Not only was she trying to voice us supporters up during the game but she did a great job telling Pie fans to remove themselves out of a Melbourne reserved area. Something the staff obviously couldn’t give two hoots about. I hope you read DL, you were stellar on a pretty bleak day. As for the game, why do we constantly ignore the first option? We actually have some guys that run hard to create but are often ignored. Sidebottom or Smellybottom more appropriately on his own all game has been mentioned a heap. From what I saw it looked a coaching directive to have Jones for most of the game and Lewis in the last on the corner of the square at bounces so they can instantly drop back as a 7th defender. Poor coaching to let him run loose all day. 23 uncontested possessions and nearly 500 metres gained. He’s a good player but faark, let him earn them.

Watched Hunt run and create an option for Hibberd only to be burnt again for a stupid little inside trick move. Horrible.

BOM is cheering for us. Any sign will do for today.

For some reason I’m looking forward to heading to the G tomorrow, especially looking forward to seeing the look on the kids’ faces when we arrive after telling them we are heading to Wet ‘N’ Wild. Go Demons, gives us something.

Sorry to intrude, interesting to hear Tim Watson this morning say the CEOs have reportedly voted in the last couple of days for the mid-season draft to be scrapped. No reasons given as yet, possibly something to do with TPP.

Working fine now on the phone Andy. Thank you.

No problem Andy. I had the same issue last week but I heard you read out a few posts from the chat room so I thought at the time it was my mobile that was the issue.

I’m having the same issue, won’t load.
