Half way through the year. I'm surprised we haven't had a rising star nom yet...

Sheed, duggan and Nelson have been solid/consistent rather than spectacular without any of them having a real standout game. The 2014 draft group was a strong one plus hogan, McCarthy and now Boyd have all had big games so I'm not surprised we haven't had a nomination yet nor am I unduly concerned about it

Players who have had consistent years tend to get noms late in the season often for games that weren't necessarily their best effort as a reward for their consistency

We havn't had one since 2011 though which is a bit worrying.

Carlton taking boekhorst over Goddard is a bigger fck up then Pitt over darling

Boekhorst hasn't really been given a go yet. And Malthouse was having some kind of negative effect over there. Lets see how he goes before writing him off.

I dunno, hard to find may draft blunders quite like that

Port board up in arms about the 24-10 free kick count.

Well, the count in our game was 25-13 and we were playing a much better side than Carlton...so harden up I say.

 

[Small Moves]

God... They lost to Carlton. They have bigger problems than a one sided free kick count.

I'm not when you see who picks the nominations.

Melbourne have started really well. Two weeks time may not be the walk in the park people think it is

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Well our Geelong win looks like shit but our impending Melbourne win could be the win of the year.

Max Gawn 96 dream team points BEFORE half time

Wtf

 

[EagleShore]

And another similarity to our 2013 season happens. Unexpected loss to Carlton. This shits starting to get a bit scary with Port. If they finish the season in 13th then I'm calling the exorcist.

I've expressed my genuine empathy for my mate, a Port supporter who wore his scarf to our winter pool competition every week even during their rock bottom season of 2011. Eerie how they are experiencing a reality check of the order of our 2013 season.

My tipping is looking like 3/6 at the moment FML

Anyone who gets 6/6 is psychic or an idiot.

This Melbourne game is huge for my H2H Melb vs Saints 2015 bet against my mate. Get there!

 

[Small Moves]

Cashed out at 1/4 time.. thank **** for that.

God this commentary is so biased towards Geelong. This will be Melbourne's best win of the year and they've completely earned it.

 

[Biggie]

Melbourne will prove a test in a fortnight, especially in Darwin

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHH Shizen! Geelong f**ked up my multi. And I counselled my diehard Demon supporter client to refrain from spending his last $5.00 for the weekend on a ridiculous gamble on Melbourne when they didn't have Hogan. Ouch. I got burned like Enright. How sad they couldn't do it for that bloke.

Does this inject some value into our game against Melbourne after the rest? Foreign ground; after the bye though we will have had an extra 24hours to recover, for what it may be worth; the gamestyle we are executing involves high intensity though well sustained throughout the second halves this year...

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Keep in mind they got 4600 to their last NT game, will be an odd adjustment early on with the weather and such low numbers.

 

[EagleShore]

how the heck did you get 3 wrong with the only underdogs to win were Melbourne and The Eagles (marginally) RookiePick?

Carlton?

 

[EagleShore]

Carlton?

Oh yeah, I just spilled my beer so consider me done. I didn't have Port in my multi because I got to it too late so...forgot. They're screwed this year.
