    We need to finish Top 2 and win our finals

    I think some of us are getting a bit ahead of ourselves. It seems to me that the second half of the year is going to be harder than the first half, and frankly, it's bloody miraculous that we are where we are given our injuries. If we finish in the top four I'll be well pleased, because we...

    What I Like About Geelong

    What I like about Geelong is that they've done it honestly and professionally; no inflated - or violated - salary caps, no cannibalising another club, no imported prestige coach (indeed, the present coach will probably turn out to be better than their last), and without tanking for years. The...

    Josh Fraser

    There was a time - prior to that All-Stars game - when Fraser and Cox were considered to have "transformed" the role of the ruckman in that both could play around the ground as well as tackle and kick goals. I like old Joshie, and I loathe the way some bag guys just because they go elsewhere...

    Toast Neon Leon!

    Agree with all the above AND this was a big game, right? And we used to think he couldn't stand up in the big games, right? Well, wrong! He REALLY stood up today.:D

    Toast Alan Toovey

    Not so long ago I posted saying that this year Toovey would - like Dane Swan in previos years - incrementally improve to the point of becoming a genuinely great player. Got lots of LOLs and the rest. Ha, ha, ha wiseguys:p

    News Collingwood Magpies Doubted Jarryd Blair

    So Blair actually sought Mick Malthouse out and pestered him into giving him advice on how to make it. Hmmm. There've been several player's in the past whom I've felt sure would make it and didn't, most notably Ben Davies. I guess this shows how important relationships really are, which in turn...

    Pies Under The Pump

    I think they are almost all down a bit so far, except Cloke where there's been some obvious improvement. I felt it was a real education last year when Ball and Jolly joined, two guys at the peak of their form, yet they still took about 8-9 games to really hit their stride, what with learning to...

    Rumour Mick Malthouse

    Leigh Matthews made an insightful comment during the broadcast about this. He said that he'd overheard one of the Richmond players during a break saying something to the effect of "Make sure you kick it long down the corridor and sooner or later we must break through..." Matthews comment was...

    Brodie Holland Kicks 8!

    Can someone please tell me why Holland retired. He did that big hit on someone who's name escapes me in the opening minute of a final (2002-2003???), got penalised about 5 for that, which ruled him out of the first few games in the next year, and then he never seemed to hit his stride again in...

    Can Chris Dawes keep it up?

    Dawes would have gone in the first ten in the 2006 draft but for his knee (he was pick 28 after Reid and Brown at 8 and 10). In fact, although he's been in the system for four years, he's only played 32 games; he's at the beginning of his AFL career proper. He's at the same point Reid and Brown...

    Malthouse Meeting with Carlton Monday 14th

    I guess we've got several years of this nonsense ahead.

    Toast Harry Wins 1st Time Trial of 2011

    Actually - seriously - with Tarrant back, why not play Harry up further, a mate for Swanny, same shape too. Hmmmmm!?

    Death to St.Kilda

    Didaicos, all that little error means is that I really don't give a toss for St Kilda, and can't even reliably remember the coach's name. But so what? Please try to learn to address the issues raised in a post in a moderate manner.

    Death to St.Kilda

    Gee, what a lot of nonsense. Have another look at the two grand finals. I reckon St Kilda performed a lot like we did in 2009 when we were bustled out in the finals. They won't fall apart this year and will have learned a lot from 2010. Players like Gwilt and Dawson will continue to lift, and...

    Fevola on the cheap?

    No, no, no, no, no, no, no, never, never, never and definitely not!
