For the list we are supposed to have, this may be the worst loss I have witnesssd.

Hit outs, possessions and tap ons.

Its a better rate than when he played for them

His best game for the Bombers in 4 years.

Hit outs, possessions and tap ons.

So much finger pointing.. omg lol Gawn just dominated tonight and they got first touch everytime. Next week you will signing praises because Essendon wont have a ruckman at all...

Whom do I trim? Potentially unpopular opinion - I'd drop Carlisle from that team. I'd much prefer to play Battle, either in defence or dropping back from the wing. Much as I wanted Clark in the middle, I don't think it's happening this year with Crouch coming in. I think we'll start Crouch/Ross/Ste...

Looking forward to the day King gets looked after like Lynch.

Can someone explain to me the free against Marshall in the ruck?

Should be a couple of goals closer.

I don't want to sound like a sook, but umpiring seas much better that quarter.

I don't mind losing, just want a level playing field.

You'd like to think so, but I doubt it.

Was reckless, high and medium impact.
Potential for injury off the charts.

Won't get looked at.

Steven Baker says hello from 2006

Time to get some people that actually know some basic physics.

The average head weights about 5kg. Doesn't take much to make it move.

Walk very slowly into something at head height and your whole body won't stop but your noggin will.

The AFL makes a point to say the jurors don't need to speculate but they must "give consideration" to the possibility of causing serious injury. This is interesting. If I can be a smart rear end, then this could mean the end to ruck contests, tackling, screamers, backing into packs, lacin...

The AFL changed the rule so clubs don't get an automatic extra week if the appeal fails.

Paddy Ryder is a key to this game. I am 100% with you on Ryder. I truly believe he is the most important player for us in this final series. His ruck work can be sublime, and that can not only bring our midfield into the game it can take away any opposition midfield advantage. Now, he is no Longer....

I was a little tipsy after the win last week, but I told a stranger on the internet this:

We are going so deep into the finals that we are going to win the Melbourne Cup.

For Paddy's health I hope his friends and family can steer him away from contact sport. To the people that say he never showed anything, well they obviously missed his early games. He was pretty exciting in his first few outings. Didn't people call him Mac'Clunkin' ? I think a lot of people are usin...

An experienced head could be a massive boom for King. But I worry about how it would effect the balance of the team. Ryder has shown how much impact a quality ruckman can bring. If we get a key forward to mentor King it could push Ryder out of the team and leave Marshall our sole ruckman. Now I love...

- English - When dogs win he plays well, when he gets beat they get beat. Young version of McEvoy IMO, moves well around the ground, good mark, but not physical and poor at tap work. Ryder and Marshall must jump into him every chance they get. I am a ruck tragic, but I do seriously believe that our...

For all you Sainters out there over 35 - comin' at ya!

Ahhh Dean Greig's debut.

Best team game since the Swans match.

If we have captured our covide re-start form, we could actually do something meorable in the coming weeks.

If Lonie doesn’t come up I would bring Parker in

Agree with that.

Savage, Bytel or Hind would probably get the nod, but I think Parker brings more danger and we should just go for it. Nothing to lose now.

5 - Steele. What a season 4 - Marshall. Already a gun, possible superstar. 3 - Clark. Keep him in the action please 1 - Paton. Prune juice couldn't release him from his opponents 1 - Coffield. Wow. Has the potential to be our best player. 1 - Ryder. May be our most important player going into finals.
