So much wishy washy moaning of the collective on here. Geez, we just gave two potential top 4 teams a run for their money while living out of a suitcase for a fortnight, but then the team throws out a bog average game because they are probably buggered…. and it’s end of friggin days. And next...

In fairness the Eagles played well. We looked as flat as a doe-doe. 2 weeks on the road (worth the experiment) and probably too much focus making up on lost time with (uh-hem) loved ones (wink-wink) 😘 😁 No point bemoaning certain players, the team collectively wasn’t there as we had expected...

Just watched the “Gather round means test” on YouTube, Kingy reviewing the game with Whateley. Gave a good nod to Serong, Fyfe and Sharp and his “wingman ship”, said it was a good game to watch. That was about the only positive, pretty much highlighted our errors and that we might ru the loss...

I’m pretty sure we surprised more than a few. Congrats on the win.

Geez I thought it was a full time job? Surely it is? They have too much responsibility for it not to be? You would argue it warrants an Apprenticeship even…

Just finished watching and processing it…. It’s the first time I have genuinely questioned the umpiring. They honestly have too much power and control, even if wrong! They honestly do have the capability to throw a game should they choose, and there ain’t much you or I can do about it. For the...

I must be living under a rock because I don’t think King is that bad and calls a spade a spade. When we knocked over Geelong and Melbourne (stopping their big run of wins) he couldn’t have spoken more highly of us. He has us in his top 4. Cornes went on the record this week saying we won’t make...

Excuse the big nose, getting intel 😁 Re the start time, us Dockers could do with a head start, we’ve blown every Q1 for like years… we do seem to get proper going somewhere after that… thank god! Predicting an arm wrestle, we are one KPD light and our new kid Draper’s gonna be a player but...

Well it can’t be tactical so it’s either a fitness or mental thing, with the money being for the latter. I think the more wins we can string together, the likelier the slow starts will naturally fade away as our overall confidence and belief grows, but oddly it is becoming our brand / style if...

Of all the trade talk, this gets me the most excited, could you imagine? This whole Vegas fiasco might just be what the good Dr ordered, the come home factor might just be on the radar, and 29 or not, his presence in our forward line as our window opens would arguably be just as impactful as...

I can remember when Pearce played his first couple for us down back, and we were all like whoa…. we’ve got us one here…. Tell me the Draper vibes aren’t any different? Now that’s a ceiling!

Disagree with Hughes being solid. He’s the biggest weakness down back, Draper already looks far better only after a couple of runs. Draper in for Hugh’s (sub), Cox heads back to defense when back, sounds pretty formidable!

Have always valued your perspective E Shed. This is exactly why we shouldn’t be getting ahead of ourselves with 2 wins. We are yet to put in 4 quarters and we are only another couple of injuries shy of dicky knees. We haven’t proven anything yet. The logic says 24 will be another rollercoaster...

Don’t shoot! Plenty of reasons to be optimistic, but geez there’s a looong way to go and a lot to work on. This first quarter thing has to be in their heads, why is it still a thing? For me it’s too early to say we are the real deal, once bitten twice shy but hell it’s great to see Fyfe in the...

I was fortunate to play on Sabina Park against the Kingston cricket club back in 2007. We did a social weekend there from home here in the Cayman Islands with the Village Greenies cricket club, the islands expat team. It was quite an experience! We weren’t much in the way of cricketers and...

We will finish as high as their belief and focus takes them. Despite the less than expected results of 23, there were enough glimpses to see that they have what it takes to match it with any of the top 4 teams - on their day. I think Young in the middle next year will be the talk of the town...

Pretty hard to fault Serong as a player, but I agree, he does have a habit of just blasting a clearing kick, maybe that one in the dying stages puts an end to that mind set.

He was the highlight of the game.

“Rocket” would be an appropriate nickname, good on him and best of luck on debut!

Well if there was ever a team to throw an upset in Melbourne, it’s ours. The boys have a lot to prove - not to us, but themselves. Don’t be surprised to see a return to that elite pressure, its about due. Remember that win last year in Geelong, that was never meant to happen, no one would have...

It make you wonder where we might be had it not been for the bye (again). Which does speak again to between the ears for mine.

My case is that when we are switched on we can mix it with the best. So why can’t we back that up the following week? If we had one hell of a physical game the week prior, fair enough, but players literally play out of their skins one week and go walkabout the next. I don’t question that our...

I don’t vent much, but I’m getting a bit sick of the “we’re still a young side” excuses. How long are we going to keep hiding behind that crap? The team have shown they can mix it with the best, so it’s all there, but somehow it’s gone the next. 1000% between their ears now.

Paul Kelly’s song comes to mind…. From.. little things ….big things grow… 👍🏻

Right there is what won them that game. Take that a way and well…. I couldn’t help by admire how good he was, especially in that last quarter. We’d look a million bucks with him on our wing!!

I reckon we will offer him the exact same deal as Jackson, if that’s $900K so be it and having them on the same wage “per say” should ensure a harmonious nightmare for teams for years to come!

He was sent back to Peel to work on his game, and by all accounts he has done just that, the match committee has acknowledged it and he’s getting a deserved crack. Hard to argue that. It’s not unreasonable to see the early years comparison with Sonny and in that light, you could argue Henry...

100% agree. Never really took much notice of Brad Johnson’s commentary but found him to be overly critical of us, and I usually like Healy’s commentary, but he just came across as arrogant some how…. Huddo was brilliant, my favorite line from his call yesterday was after an Amiss goal where he...

Gee whiz what a round it has been for us on the ladder. The gods have been smiling with some of the results and as ridiculous as it sounds, and a total long shot, 4th on the ladder really isn’t all that impossible if we can sustain the run and belief, which we certainly got a good shot in the...
