Also Moods, an awful lot of women want to watch it and guess what? that's half the population.

Can't understand why we didn't link our bid to the St Kilda Sharks - probably the best established highest profile women's team there is.

I can't believe how empty it looked behind our goals on the weekend. Was the most disappointing part of the day to be honest. Where are all the Saints fans and why can't we get some serious numbers sitting with the cheer squad so we can build a fortress type atmosphere?? Memo to anyone listening, g...

I think Lonie may suffer a bit from the expectation that he's supposed to be 'the new Milney' - I'd hate him to think he has to be that sort of player if he's actually cut out to be something a little bit different.

Composure from day one has been out of sight.

It's never boring to win. But yeah in general - to my eye, shutdown play is boring.

I think the reason Lyon gets to me is this. He was a good coach for us insofar as he found a way for us to win games. But the players were subjugated to the method. He inherited this fantastic list but instead of encouraging them to play to their strengths and finding a style that suited the team, t...

I love the way we're moving the ball down the guts. Prepared to take it on and get it into F50 fast. Loving seeing our guys playing with flair and confidence. One thing I thought could have been better today was it came out of their defensive 50 a bit too easy at times. Across half back they had to...

Ross after the game: “I see possibility and everything starts with possibility; see where you want to be and then get into action and repeat the action until you achieve." Obviously hasn't read his Einstein or he'd know that doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results is ...

You've gotta have role players. Your elite kicks are never going to want to sacrifice their game to shut another player down (nor would you want them to).

Speaking as just another sorry toerag with a boring, simple life, I also love seeing Freo lose. Watching Ross Lyon squirm in the press conferences week after week warms my sad, childish heart. I don't think my position is particularly strange: he walked out on us; I don't forgive him. Let's face it ...

and he has great hair...

Seems to me that this notion of ours - and other clubs - that 'we aren't meant to play finals' makes a pretty compelling case for a two tier competition. What's the point of having a whole lot of clubs 'playing the kids' when we're all supposed to be competing for a flag? Better off having a second ...

I've heard him he'd like to go out like Shane Crawford. He's not alone there...

Interesting to see that Lee held his spot. Reckon Webster has a bit of class - be nice to see him freed up on the wing.

Anyone else hear them saying on Marngrook how Port's 'never say die' spirit was down to Richo? Said he was Hinkley's right-hand man - they haven't been the same since he left them and came to us.

Bit harsh - I also read afl.com's breakdown but noted that Sam Mitchell is the 'turnover king' for the Hawks.

Well it doesn't work in my area - the footy channel is in their list of blackouts - in fact it IS their list of blackouts. Although you don't find that out till after you've registered. Not only that - it's taken me an hour to find a way to deactivate the bloody account. There's a nice big 'deactiva...

minch however looked the goods!

the jury is in

I dunno why we dropped Acres either. Thought he was showing a bit. But I wouldn't drop Gresh. He got into all the right places, won his own ball, but was overtaken by the speed and the pressure - well he won't learn how to cope with that if we send him back to the twos.

Apparently the Tigers are now using Darryl Braithwaite's cover version of the the Rickie Lee Jones song 'horses'. The AFL never disappoints when it comes to turning the cringe-o-meter up to 11. Gee whiz! That sounds horrendous. I hope our club resists doing something so utterly silly. The only song...

Drop Dunstan? Really? Game high 9 tackles...

fantastic - thanks, mcadam. What a team! And Aussie Jones in a 29 jumper - I didn't remember that!

Dunstan will make a great skipper - hope he's ready in time.
Why didn't Richo correct them about Nick's '200th game'?!
