Once the crowd started to get involved they really started to lift & the louder the crowd got the more frees they received (apparently 14 to 2 in the last quater). Happens alot at Subi , thats why we should have put them away while we had the chance in the first half to take the crowd factor out...

Work with a guy that helps out at Swan Districts & he rekons Luke Miles is a gun. Pitty he been injured most of the season. Has anyone seen him play? If so what do you think? Is he worth hanging on to?

Sad news. Came from Leitchville which is close to where i grew up in northen Vic. He coached our local side in the mid 80's & was a likeable bloke , unfortunately not a great coach but when he got on to a torp, man they went. Deepest sympathy to his family, R.I.P Jinka

This decision does not suprise me(ater all it is Collingwood )but you really have to wonder what St.kilda have done to the afl to get such a raw deal from the mrp & the tribunal. If that had of been Bakes he'd be sitting in the stand for a month

I know I'll get bagged for this "BUT" Max has more passion & courage in his little finger than Raph has in his entire body . If raph plays on Tredrea then we may as well kiss the season goodbye. If they want to play Raph they have to play him up forward coz hes a liability in the back ...

needs to do something special in the remaining games or he will be trade bait at the end of the season & so will his brother but i doubt they'll be knocking down the door to sign raph but there might be some intrest in X hopefully he can get back & prove that hes worth hanging on to

going to be a bumpy ride will all depend on injury & level of team commitment dont think we are certainties to make the 8 but if we do I think we could cause some problems (if we come to play)

This is not an excuse we should have beaten Westcoast & probably the Lions should have beaten Richmond & with the scoring shots Sydney had they should have troubled Adelaide but its the nature of the competition there is 4 points separating 6 or 7 teams & as bad as it was for us the door...

Jason Blake was a one shining light in a very dull perfomance from the team as a whole , at least he chased, manned up & contested as he does every week & we all know his skills aren't special but if we had more players with blakes heart we would be pushing for a top 4 spot not just making u...
