Well North don't need mids so we should get a beauty.
Also no Thursday or Friday matches and few Saturday evening games.
Unfortunately it also means a game at Mt Barker, about 8 interstate fixtures and no mercies from the MRO and umps. Character building.

It is a part of Lyons game plan to get the ball in Bonners hands as often as possible (and Nas) A part of that is him kicking in Freo bought in. Kicked lots of points. Possibly Bonner was tired from all that kicking in and the hopeless kick to Hill was his last gasp of energy. Well planned J. Longm...

I’m not 100% on it

I miscounted the year of exploration. Apologies.

The list is 80% the same And a year more experienced Every team has injuries and suspension Squad mentality- you deal with that So list is significantly different. No two teams have identical injuries and suspensions. Deal with it? Sounds easy. A seriously disperate 44 plus group in a complex high ...

We all know players can have bad weeks. I’m not a huge fan of Seb Ross, but he’s an experienced midfielder and he rarely plays 2 really poor games in a row When we lost to Hawthorn, everyone knew there’d have to be some changes to the team…but Lyon decided to have 3 of his more experienced players ...

It was a 5 year deal.
Let the man go the journey.
Honour the undertaking.
Don't go the bed wetting route.
As the man observed "...s*** happens.." then it doesn't.
All good things usually involve hard work and perseverance.

What happened last year - with the same list? Is Jack Steele the new Seb Ross?! Where were you last season. And it is not the same list. Form and personnel changes, suspensions and injury have made it significantly different. As has the butterfly wings effect of Bonnor's clangers. Or sledgehammer b...

Please help understanding this. If Ross goes Bonner would not have served up that comedic turn over. Steele doesn't give Marshall a hot potato holding the ball, suddenly Dougal is a footballer, Max can hold marks. Is that right, the players are conspiring to fail. Seems to me junior footy brain fade...

Not many.
Smallest crowd I can remember.
Train lines out. Cold. WA team. We are struggling.
Not much of a hard core!
Will be hard for the players unless the club plays canned applause.

Max v Pearce will be a contest worth witnessing live. Steele v Fyfe Brayshaw v Windhager See how Dougal approaches the job on Amiss/Treacy. Caminiti is always fun to watch and a bit like Forest's box of chocolates. Henry down one end, Walters the other. Wilson Real debut of Collard Sharman back in t...

Only had to start speculation he might come to Saints and he injured himself.
Bit fragile for the large lump he is?
Has to be a beat up.
Anyway, two Carlton hand me downs is enough for present, don't you think.
Although Dow should scrub up nicely.

A horribly miserable cold wet winter awaits that big bunch of Collingwood players who are well into their 30s, They are about to fall off a cliff. For once , I hope you are right. N. Daicos. Captain Moore. If they or either go down for a few weeks Coach Fly might have to change from sanguine to ref...

Nah… He’ll change his tune. And will be adamant that he never supported Ross. It’ll be Chris Pelchen and Brett Ratten all over again! Fair dinkum. From a supporter. Check the calendar, it's 18 months in. Billings is no McEvoy. New players take time to identify and develop. Feet of clay stuff.

If all it takes to be successful is a good coach Either 1/ Ross Lyon is an average coach 2/ that statement is incorrect Give it another 2 years...wait....hell - let's go with 3!! Give it another 3 full years. That'll make it nearly 5 years of Ross the Boss's second coming Up until that time...........

Brayden Maynard has played 195.

NEWMAN!
Yes. Jerry?
We have spoken about this........

if we didn't have Aunty ABC we'd be the 53rd state of americana already i can't fathom how people are not into the ol girl Spreader of left wing crap and spam. Can't stand them and I never watch . How do you know they spread left wing crap if you never watch them? :lol: Well a pretty accurate guess...

Shoulda given up the 2nd rounder for Xerrie instead of Campbell couple of years ago. Maybe looking a little further ahead if picking up a ruck. My guess is if Stengel went anywhere I’d would be Carlton with Eddie betts Stengle needs Miers and Duncan kicking to him. Won't leave and be successful. Mi...

And we have lost 5 games 10pts or under A bit of luck here, a bit of luck there, an injury less here, a suspension less there .... and maybe we win 3 or 4 of those It's true we aren't playing great .... currently .... but I don't it will take much to turn it around Be honest, how many of these clos...

Sam McClure.
Source?
Credibility?
Informal? means I can make up stuff. Allegedly, reportedly, it is understood, an anonymous source reported......
Wow look at the reaction on Saintsational, those fans are ........lol. If only the rest of AFL news readers were so gullible.

Corrosive topic. Sad/disappointing so many have been sucked in and to read the heart wrenching tales of distress and angst. Congenital pessimism must be a burden, good luck dealing. Unless you like the wallowing, of course. Tip: you can stop "supporting" anytime you like, find some other c...

When you can't say anything nice say nothing at all! Best If I stay mute. Doesn't matter to the apologists Doesn't matter what you say. They'll attack any one who doesn't believe in the messiah coach Doesn't matter how accurate or true the criticism...all criticism is unwarranted, unjustified and j...

Wouldn't be surprised if a lot of Dockers fans came over. Expect an easy kill, see Melbourne, plenty of tickets available, compare Southbank with Freo's High Street. Or maybe bottom of Elizabeth with High St. Catch up with Ross.

Hey Moods .... it wasn't even Phillipou's manager ....it was an assistant to his manager (Staphen Kellis) and the idiot couldn't delete his ridiculous tweet quick enough .... yet gossipboy Tom couldn't get on the phone quick enough I am sure there is probably a journalist in there somewhere but it'...

Cordy might be mightily under estimated in regard to what he brings. Could release Battle fwd, give Max a spell as he looks injured. Zane just brings serious effort and smarts. Qualities the side doesn't have a lot of.
