“They embraced and brought their heads together, and Nicky was repeatedly saying in that euphoric moment of celebration, ‘I’m black and I’m proud to be black, I’m black and proud to be black, I’m black and proud to be black’, to Gilbert as they embraced. So I don’t know if I can be any more specifi...

Gears won’t come up. Think paddy will have a rest Chance for Kent Battle unlikely - just my views, not necessarily correct. Except for Gears Can you shed any light on where Phillips is at, Tony? Can run all day but struggles to get to the right places and his foot skills need improving. My opinion ...

Great article. I love the concept of honouring the traditions and history. The loss of Spud could weaken that so good to see the current group respecting him. Thanks for posting Saynta.

Great article, thanks from me also.

Football? That bowl of tripe? The first AFL match in 10 weeks and the only thing both teams were proficient in was the pre-match virtue signalling in support of rioting looters and assorted miscreants. A good thing the public was locked out, their would have been a riot of people demanding their mo...

Any chance you could tell us so we don’t have to go looking?

So the VFL, sorry the pretend AFL, has reconstituted footy centred on old Melbourne town. What a joke. The only place in Australia where it’s not safe to be right now is Melbourne. Unidentified community transmission. Only place in OZ where that’s the case. We have an apartment in Melbourne that we...

Can’t remember what Rath’s role is but was mentioned recently by Ratten so assume he’s staying.

Great long term recall Sanctorum, but can you recall what happened yesterday? 😉 My mum has Alzheimer’s and can vividly recall the 1940’s but has no recall of dad passing away 4 years ago. Haha Joffa, very sorry though to hear about your mother, that is all too common a story, I have some friends wh...

A couple of excerpts from the memo sent by the AFL to the clubs on Monday: "No decisions have been made and there are still a wide range of options available to the AFL, the players and the clubs in order to begin and complete the 2020 Toyota AFL premiership season. We will continue to priorit...

If the trend continues as is, we’re definitely getting footy, 17 rounds total which is plenty for “legitimacy/integrity” of the season, no hubs. Looks fine to me, can’t wait. Just wish we’d won round 1.

Questionable. Experienced team, finals-hardened was able to flat-track bully the new teams (GC & GWS) which led to inflated results, but not good enough anymore against the better teams. Up to a point, I suppose. We only played against GWS once, by the way, and Gold Coast and GWS (who finished ...

Interesting post, BarryGrogan. Under SW in 2012, even though we were a team in decline and definitely in the rebuild phase, we at least started to score more freely and our % went up considerably - our rapid decline under RL was arrested somewhat in 2012 (in terms of games won and lost, at least). ...

There’ll be footy this year in empty stadiums. Nothing more certain.

And the 2 points taken from us and given to Fero after the Sirengate game cost us 3rd spot.

Lenny’s knee.

Just curious, how many supporters still want thier money back? Serious question as I know people's views, opinions and attitudes are evolving quicker than the virus itself. I don't want a refund as I'm lucky enough to be at the stage in my life where I can afford it. There are many not so fortunate...

The measures put in now need to be sustainable for up to 6 months, shutting everything down for 2 or 4 weeks isn’t going to achieve anything (Chief Medical Officer Prof Brendan Murphy covered all this this morning). The footy is a write off, that’s fine. But we can’t have schools close and business...

We all know China used pretty drastic lock-down measures, perhaps draconian, and achieved - cheating aside - some stability in terms of the spread. Now how insulting is it to listen to Eddie Mc Quire (who was tested a week ago - long before most of us even knew where or how to get tested) and Luke ...

Apparently no one else is affected.

I’d agree with her if she was talking about another team but she’s not so I don’t.

Love the bit on battle / Marshall. Awesome that these guys are on the improve and hopefully it translates into the field I agree. I think that Marshall and Battle are the most important players at our club. 1. Both played very well in their first year. (As opposed to "they will come good after...

Cautiously excited is how I would categorise Robbo and his chances, I doubt very much he will be selected round 1 as he's missed way too much footy and I suspect his medical condition will need to be monitored for a good block of footy at VFL level. We just have other options now who are capable of...
