I have so little respect for Mooney that I find it confusing and hard to understand why I am actually responding.

Gram had more strapping than an Egyptian mummy. We were all pushed off the ball pretty easily - those cats have big conditioned bodies. We actually looked proppy! It seems hard to guage where our fitness and conditioning is really at based on today's match and the number of guys looking crook. I for...

I watched the whole game and I'm still not sure I've seen him play yet. I'd love his knockers to be proved wrong.

The big difference between in your comparison is percentage. The Cats were at 120% with two losses! We were 87% and look like being the same this week. There's the difference! If the signs weren't there already that the Cats were set for big things then we didn't want to see. Saints at 87% - well th...

If there aren't three changes to Geelong this week then the system will destroy the game. It will become too easy just to take players out (ala West on Clarke) to reduce the efficiency of the rotations. If there aren't three geelong outs this week, just watch the snippers come out and take out the m...

Good call Rocket. :D I like your reasoning too. He may be the stopper we need on hawkins that frees up our runners.

I think caution is the way to go. Gosse will have a significant job when he returns. He needs match fitness and solid rock self belief. His time with casey is not just physical conditioning. Goose needs to remind himself of jsu what a significant role he can and will play on return. 90% above the sh...

I don't know if it is Darwin's distance from Telstra Dome or what, but the countdown to tonight holds great anticipation.
