Re: Where are the umpire apologists tonight?

The umpire apologist, P66, is too busy drinking and dreaming up a way of defending 22 frees to 12. actually 25 to 14 but more to the point, was where they got theirs The umpires were clearly fearful of making any decisions in our forward 50 in our favour, but not so the other way likewise vital dec...

Re: Story about Ben McEvoy

He is a breath of fresh air. Laid back footy players with a bit of a clue are a rare commodity these days. Definitely a ruckman in the mould of the great Jeff Sarau.

Re: bad result geelong winning

Our biggest concern is StKilda, I think we can potentially beat Sydney and/or Collingwood, but also quite easily lose to the Cats and Blues… if we are fair dinkum though, we shouldn't make hard work of any of the dogs, dees and giants… which would give us 11 wins alone. We will absolutely FLOG Carl...

Re: bad result geelong winning

Essendon really are soft. No way are they even a shadow of the team of the early/mid eighties or the 90s side. I hate them so I am glad they got done.

Re: Close Games Hurt

IMO - We will thrash Carlton in round 23 - ten goals plus, depending on personel available. And as for Geelong, this year will be the easiest opportunity against them for ten years I should think. They have defo been on autopilot this year and who could blame them really? Sydney at SCG and Collingwo...

Re: Gilbert - one of our worst kicks ever!

Gilbo did two very good right foot kicks tonight. First time ever two in the one game. (Probably only his third and fourth right foot kicks ever.) I thought he was excellent value tonight. Jones was far more embarrassing, not even wanting to kick, and ending up with even worse stuff-ups than just a...

Re: Gilbert - one of our worst kicks ever!

Kicked a great goal. Did a couple of ordinary things, but I think he just needs to work on his weaknesses - including field kicking. I think instead of a lot of the other drills, get guys like Gilbert and Jones working on field kicking and Roo on his goalkicking. A lot of the fitness work is done pr...

Re: why is the gabba such a graveyard for us?

Won the last three years there plus another in 2006 - hardly a graveyard I would have thought. Since 2000 Brisbane have been hard to beat anywhere, in 2003-4 we only beat them by a few points both times at the Docklands, and we also struggled to defeat them at the Docklands when we finished on top i...

Re: Double Standards

I want North to die a long lingering death - good for percentage boosts. I remember a lot of the pastings they gave us throughout most of the late 70s and early-mid eighties. Revenge is sweet.

Maybe she is a British citizen or has right of residence due to ancestry(patriality). It would not be a problem if that is the case.

Re: Preview / Discussion - Saints v Brions

I'd give another young mid a shot, wouldn't hurt Jack to see someone else who is keen and disciplined under him get a game. Ross, Ledger, Curren? Curren's more a tagger isn't he? That selection may depend on whether Simon Black comes up (he has a knee). If not I would go for Newnes, although I woul...

Evidently Port are copping a lot of heat for their gutless effort against the Cows - me sense a statement in the form of a 'line in the sand' match coming up for them.
