  1. Must get........hurry....before the lid is closed.
  2. Da Bears!!!! Yeah, I’d love to come over and join in the tipping comp, I’ll start only with that, haven’t followed the NFL as closely the last few years, I’ve been reading the thread every few days though. NHL commencing in October to follow all the madness of September. Good times ahead Macca.
  3. Love your thinking Macca.....start of September sounds really good to kick off the ‘Trifecta’ amongst other things if you know what I mean. ? Wow, hot field above.....good old ‘Tom Melbourne‘ resuming in September.....sorry, enough with the ‘Omens’.
  4. Agree with that Layzie, didn’t enjoy Jack so much on the field and that’s even changing now (never thought it would) .....I think he’s been very good on that show in the last couple of years and I liked the part where he said he would love to be the Coleman medalist if it happens this year. A lot of players brush off the question when asked about individual awards but I liked his honesty.
  5. Yes, how we can we forget the famous Performer sidestep and he was an early favourite for the Slipper. That was a nasty fall. Must be time soon for the ‘Team Trifecta’ Macca. Happy to go again when you find a suitable selection of races.
  6. Thought I’d share this article here for a bit of a laugh. It’s a bit tense on the main footy boards today. This is one decent halftime spray from a coach. https://apple.news/AUyxbvx8WQEyIHEcehp6qVw
  7. Ha Ha...thanks Macca. I remember you mentioning the match-up between Sandbar and Santos last week. This race should be a beauty, I can’t wait. Final fields will be out tomorrow of course and will start the studying as soon as they are listed. I’ll have the latest on Santos later in the week.
  8. Jack Riewoldt on AFL 360 said he can’t understand why there needs to be negative commentary around celebrations like that after a game when the question was put to him.......12 years.....12 bloody long years of misery. Lewis added that once on the plane home everything returned to business as usual.
  9. Goddard, hey? Anyone think he can make it as an assistant coach? I mean, he tried hard telling his teammates what to do all the time.
  10. Oliver is human after all although you could argue he meant to get the ball to Hannan for a score involvement.
  11. Could well be the case that Harmes goes to him, Harmes might go to Ward also. The few GWS games I’ve watched Ward has been their best midfielder.
  12. Roosy On the Couch highlighted the below Jones’ effort in the last quarter as a critical contest for us regaining the lead. The ‘ Toe Poke’! Getting pushed by Yeo, Jones shows his determination by winning the ball any way possible. Controls the ball with his foot, picks it up, handballs to Gawn and the rest is history.
  13. MCC predicting 37,000, we should be able to nudge 40,000 hopefully. A sea of Red and Blue.
  14. Sorry to go off topic, not sure if it’s a topic anyway.....I was ‘browsing’ the same as you jnr last night and came across the OP of their Game Day thread. A backfire of ‘ Epic’ proportions. https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/round-22-v-melbourne-arrogant-ur-glad-were-so-awesome-no.1201893/ Must Watch....great compilation of Gifs (credit to the poster for all the trouble they went through at least) and look out for the ones involving us against the Cats this year.
  15. Has to be the case. If anyone is stiff to miss the Milkshake definately is. How does Waite get in ahead of him?
  16. Santos making a return at Rosehill on Saturday. We are only at Weights stage with final field yet to be decided. Shaping up as a competitive race.

  17. Some baffling selections, 2 Saints players and Waite from North was ‘important’ in their late failed comeback. Gunston in the backline when he spent most of the game up forward. Tracking well Cornesy.
  18. Same here, I’m more upset about Hogan, Lever and especially Bernie missing out this year.

    Sorry if I wasn’t clear enough Febes, I was talking about this week.
  20. As it sits after Round 22. Luff has been championing his butt off with us all year. #2 Contested Possession Differential #2 Pressure #1 Points For #9 Points against #2 Points From Turnovers Differential #2 Points From Clearances Differential #1 Inside 50 Differential #1 Time In Forward Half #1 Forward Half Intercepts #2 Points From Forward Half Chains Roosy also added we are 4th easiest team to be scored against but we need to play to our strengths and as we mature that will be fixed.

    The only Demon to make Cornes’ team of the week. Our best win in over a decade and we only have one player in the team. Goes to show what a monumental team effort it was on Sunday. Harmes rising rapidly, Red and Blue blood through and through.
  22. Started already Skuit.
  23. MCC predicting 37,000 on Sunday. Let’s get there and make it over 40,000.
