looking at it, if brisbane win the ladder becomes VERY tight. Sydney would be only half a game ahead of us with two tough games to come.

So in some sense we could still gain if brisbane do win.

Worst one was when The Wife Basher marked in the Social Club pocket in the 2nd qtr just outside 50 - he definitely played on - was then tackled. It was either a free to us for holding the ball or a free to him for a tackle that slipped below the knee. Instead the Maggot paid a 50m penalty. silliest...

funny thing was that I'm totally sure he was trying to do the right thing and kick it to the top of the square. Came off the side of the boot and swerved at the last second. Awesome goal!

The big difference was that we took risks when we had the ball today. Something we haven't been doing at all this season. We were accountable when we didn't have the ball. We did not stop attacking either. That is a change from previous weeks even when we've won (despite what any player says)...The...

We were told by the board that the new coach was being brought in to tweak. Well that may have been the Board's view,,,but not mine.

We were robbed by the worst display of umpiring in recent years (even worse than last night) in the game against Port at AAMI. We were robbed of two points by the AFL. (I know we didn't "deserve" the draw against Freo, but we achieved it under the rules of the AFL. We didn't "deserve...

Gilbert is a bit narrow across the shoulders and may not develop the size to be a key backman. Jarryd Allen will hopefully be our next full back. The people I have spoken to who have seen him play are absolutely rapt in the guy and have no doubt he will make it. In 2009 our starting 18 could look l...

could it also be suggest that the reason why the majority of our list lacks high game totals is because of the last 3-4 years of injury.
