Re: List 3 Positives & 3 Negatives vs Freo

Positives: - our defence - our forwards - ability of our mids to find so much for a comeback in the last (bonus positives: Gresham getting the last goal in indigenous round + putting Freo zip and 10!) Negatives: - switched to cruise mode after the first four goals - Sinclair's 2nd year blues (Love h...

Re: Searle on Marngrook

I think Gil was talking about Seb Ross and got his tongue twisted - but why she didn't pull him up on it I've no clue.

Re: Searle on Marngrook

I was a bit disappointed. No great insights. Lauren Arnell was better value last week. But then it being indigenous round - and they had Gillon McLachlan on as well - Peta didn't get that much of a look-in.

Re: Riewoldt

Still bemuses me that in this day and age papers are still read. I understand for old people who don't have the Net but why would you want to read news that is hours old, and in the case of international news, prolly 24 hours old? And thats without the fact of most of the news papers being full of ...

Re: The Injury List

Yes, SR there are certainly a lot of people in the football department, but I'm not sure how many of those involved in conditioning (4?) have played at this level of the AFL week-in, week-out. My point is that it's probably a good thing to have a player involved in that space - which does indeed bod...

Re: Riewoldt

Unfortunately, he has a bit of form in this area. Without wishing to unleash a torrent of vitriole (because personally, I think she had a point) Kim Duthie's original complaint before releasing the nude photos was because of the way Rooey dissed her. Something along the lines of 'what's that slag do...

Re: The Injury List

I posted somewhere else how Dempster had a big hand in our offseason training regime. Obviously there's a lot of luck keeping everyone on the park but I don't think it's done any harm having a footballer involved in the conditioning program.

Re: Fremantle Round 10

Games like this are always a huge worry. If you accept the simple premise that Freo have to win some time, it follows that the longer they go on losing the more likely they are to win the next game. Except happily this is mathematically very wrong. Like thinking if you've tossed a coin and it's com...

Re: Brendon Judas Goddard

Well, there's two sorts of booing - the panto 'chewy on yer boot' booing and the vicious 'I hate your f**ing guts" type booing. I think it's pretty easy to spot the difference - in yourself and in the person standing next to you.

Re: changes for this week

Reckon it would be a big mistake not to give the guys a chance to redeem themselves. If they don't or can't then maybe the match committee has to change it up - but got to give 'em a chance or risk sapping their confidence even more. Wonder if Eli might come in though.

harves

Maybe a bit of a curly one - how much responsibility does Harves have for the rubbish Collingwood is churning out at the moment? Does it have any impact on how we'd feel about him coming back to coach for us down the track?

Eli for Minch - or will Roberton come straight back in if he's fit and move Gilbo up the ground?
Richo said Armitage was only taken off as a precaution so hopefully he'll play

Shouldn't like seeing a bloke cry and maybe it's just that he's exhausted but I'd like to think that - like Maxi - it's because he cares as much as we do.

Still and all, Dusty's an excitement machine and Jumping Jack is a super-reliable kick for goal. I wouldn't trade Armo either but I wouldn't mind being able to transplant both those qualities in!

Re: St Kilda applies for a Womens Football team

I guess initially they'll be curtain-raisers - but there'll be plenty of women who'll join the clubs that field women's teams because of the woman's team and plenty of advertisers that jump on board too. That's where the revenue will come from.
