Telecast/Replay song?

A little off the track here but does anyone know what the Kings of Leon song was that was being played during the telecast and replay?? It is stuck in my mind as as have watched the replay over and over.

Would love to see Max in the side but Zac is getting unfair treatment by the papers. Made some mistakes Friday night, but was certainly not the only one. Also did some very nice things. The run down and tackle on Johnson, a few good marks and delivery was spot on. Again, sad for Max, but Zac deserve...

I have the logo on my calf. Done in Mentone. First Impressions was the name of the shop I believe.
DO NOT LET THEM TALK YOU INTO BLACK LETTERING. THAT IS NOT THE SAINTS LOGO!
Good Luck.

Saw Allen last week at DFO in Cheltenham. Was limping like a bloke who was a long way off playing. Didn't look at all comfortable.

Media blindness.

How long have we been hearing about Buddy "the best player in the league", "unstoppable" "will he be the best player ever" etc. etc. etc. How about some credit when it's due. Max gave him a good old fashion flogging last night and gets bugger all recognition from the me...

It is fine to bracket Dal & Kosi together for poor years and trade bait but there is my major difference in my book. One will put his body on the line when needed, the other will not!! That is where Dal loses me. He is probably the best player at the club to watch when he has the ball but when h...

My option, for what it's worth.
Bring in both M. Gardiner and McEvoy. Drop Fiora.
Play Gardiner in ruck with King and McEvoy as the marking forward. He's tall and takes a good grab. Not the best defence in the world and Glass apparently to miss.

"They said it can crush the young kids mentally"
I can tell you as fact that he was "crushed" by not being given the opportunity to go home and play in front of family and friends. If that is their reasoning they aren't relaying it to him.
Another supporter perplexed!

Thought the Baldock snippets were great. An exceptional talent. Imagine how good he would have been playing in today's conditions rather than the mud heaps week in week out. Hard to remember the grounds being in that sort of state.

Bakes seems better suited in a tagging role further up the ground. Would be good to have a solid and dependable back pocket. If we are looking at someone with experience, Brent Hartigan would be a cheap pick up. Solid without being brilliant. Liked the way he went about his footy and surprised Tiger...

Spot on Zed. Rix is a battler and will never be anything better. What he does give us is 100% effort at the contest. Brooks has exceptional skills for a big man but lacks the motivation or a bit of grunt to take the next step. If we could put Rix's heart in Brooks we would have a player better than ...

EvertonFC is the first one who I think has seen the deal correctly (although I dislike Everton, go Reds). I would think Geelong said you want King you take Gardiner as well. Better option than waiting, with fingers crossed, for the PSD. Geelong have off loaded Callan, Playfair, King and Gardiner. No...

Not surprised. Have heard exactly the same thing but a 5 year deal. Positively a done deal from what I've heard.

Have also heard the Doggies leadership group is filthy with Rocket!

Yep, friend of a friend.

I think we need:
Now: An established ruckman (we have Van Rheenan if we want to groom one), quick midfielders and a small forward to help out Milne.
Draft: Quick midfielders and a replacement for Max in the next few years. Gilbo will be good but don't know if he will fill out enough.

Saw many Scorpions games this year and would, without doubt, rate Brooks a better FF option. Far more mobile, better leap, great kick for goal and and can pinch hit in the ruck. With this in mind, and in the knowledge that we need more pacy midfielders, offer Watts to, say, Doggies, who need big guy...

Conspiracy, as you say, aside. I have seen blokes try to get out of the way of an umpire and get done for the accidental contact. Shaw DELIBERATELY made contact, whether it was to explain something or not. If you can get done for totally accidental how can you escape a sanction for knowing what you ...

Contact with an umpire??

Showed footage of him giving away a free kick, the umpire standing next to him as he complains and then uses his forearm to push the...
