Bombay Airconditioning

Yeah you got me, missed a word. That's what happens when you post whilst cooking dinner.

All jokes aside just shows how far behind the 8ball we were as a club. Sure Col could off pushed himself harder but we as a club tolerated it. As Jones said on game day, over the pre season Roos handed ownership of the culture to the players, the fact the senior players such as Jones Dunn Tmac as well as new comers like Angus and Hogan all get 2-3 years under Roos is massive. There are no more excuses, this has to be player driven. We have recruited enough players from other clubs to know how it's done at more successful clubs. Players who meet expectations should be shown the door.

Theres not a lot on TV full stop. Only I've really enjoyed was the British version of Sherlock Holmes which was 3 movie length episodes a year drawn out over 3 years.

Its bloody funnier than anything on free to air TV. Hutchy's a [censored], we know that and Pickers isn't much better. 3 blokes sitting around talking a bit of footy, talking a bit of crap. I go straight from there to The Saturday Rub on Tripple M. Feel free to judge because I don't care.

This week against the undermanned/ageing Cats providing the perfect stage. Loose this and there's no where to hide.

Killing the game?? Richmond is 9th and on the verge of sacking another coach. The game is doing fine.

Well then kids must be banned from watching the NRL. Player get right up in the faces of the refs all the time.

Was Sydney top four when we rolled them under Bailey?

Cmon Chook, it's club driven.

My bad, fair call.

Id like to think it does matter considering the climate we live in. One could easily say the story was devised to distract from the teams onfield performance(without Bachar's knowledge). That's the problem isn't it, mud does stick. Should this have been investigated more before going public.

I watched the whole game......don't judge me.....I live in Sydney, it was wet and three games live on TV.McCarthy played well, the whole team did. All things considered Hogan played a better game than McCarthy but he can. As eluded to earlier Cripps will give Hogan a run this week.

Has it been confirmed anything was said?

Well said DC, so he must of said it because someone lurking overheard half a conversation.

Howe is a good player but he's not a key forward/defender or a gun mid so there has to be a limit. The club knows what that limit is, offer it and leave it at that. Gone are the days of players cashing in on our club.

I live in Sydney so don't get to the VFL but if Toumpas can't improve his disposal by years end under Roos/McCartney/Goodwin he can go. There's no more hanging on/wasn't developed properly/played to early crap. I remember when kids from SA and WA were all the rage because as kids they played against men. Start looking(if not already) for the next Vandenberg. All players coming to the club need to be competitors and need to be able to use the footy.

Yes but giving it a go and being any bloody good are two different things.

Not good news but in good hands, no rushing him back.

I liked the bit about reading up about Jordan and becoming a better captain and lifting the team to another level.

Pies to go 4-1 then 4-2.

Finey just confirmed dropped. What have we got that they want and we can afford to loose.

Was Minson dropped or injured?

Nice work from the young fella.

As brilliant as Geelong have been watching them today was painful. Would love to beat them and North. Both teams have beaten up on us for years, both today were bloody ordinary.

Ive been wrong about a few players over the years but Jones wasn't one of them. Watts has all the talent in the world and is now surrounded by an elite coaching panel, it's up to him. The thing that I find interesting is there's three schools of thought about Watts. 1 - needs to dropped, lost his confidence, not earning his spot 2 - he's doing his role there's no problem 3 - he's still learning/developed wrong/he's trying I said in an earlier post, I liken him to Grimes last year, he's in for now can't afford to have him sitting at Casey next year. That would be a big waste of our salary cap.
