Interstate games, and games in cow town. Love them!
The pre-game is the best part. As O.J. recommends, always arrive early.
Leave yourself some time to kill.
Assessment:
Lost it at the selection table. A-bloody-gain!!!!! !!!!
- Brown back. Final-bloody-ly!!! Lost count of how many times he saved us. Joke that he was dropped. A very sad joke.
- Good to see Lonie back too.
- MacKenzie named in a forward pocket(?) Good to see them trying something, though suspect desperation is their actual motivation. Regardless - didn't work. If only we had a bloke like B White to try down there. Oh wait on...
- Despite his recent form, wouldn't have dropped Parker. Newnes and/or Sinclair should've gone before him.
- And, (unsurprisingly :stinger: ) - still no B White!
- Still no Langlands!
- Still Newnes!
- The forward line was still too short. (Though that didn't bloody stop the bombing. Again. )
- Still no bloody idea!!!
The second quarter was better however. But the second half?????????? What went wrong? Dead cat bounce?
Well, this didn't help.
<The definite article deleted by Mods) went for a walk around the boundary with Grubby Allen whilst Ratten gave the boys the half time address.
And do we really want this bloke as our senior choach???
Upsides were Marshall (again) and Clark. These blokes show why continuity of selection is a must!
Marshall previously was showing promise, trying stuff, but it wasn't quite (yet) coming off, only be dropped. Finally gets continuity (through injury, not choaching nous ), and what happens???? He settles, and improves with every game.
Clark was similar. You could see what he was trying to do, but the pace of senior footy caught him out. Finally he gets some continuity, and low and behold............ he's now finding time and space to show us his tricks.
Coffield. Coffield is currently at the start of that journey. You can clearly see what he's trying to do. You can clearly see that he still hasn't picked up the pace of senior footy. But, you can clearly see he's getting there. Play him!!!
Now bloody well get Saynta's man Langlands into the side! And White! And Phillips!
Anyway, we're now 17th (on percentage),
despite a soft as Jack Watts fixture,
and despite being only the 12th worst affected by injury team. https://www.afl.com.au/news/2019-06-06/ ... g-the-odds
Oh well. At least the TRUE DECEIVERS are happy.

(Why is Ted missing this week? Last we heard, he's still on the median strip, Princes Highway, somewhere in cow town. Ted travelled down to cow town with He'sHiMan for the game. But expecting the worst, the boys decided to 'prepare' themselves.
Don't try this yourselves kiddies. )
For Loris:
That Cunnington ‘tap’ and our (non) ‘response’:
The boys need some specialist coaching.
New Coach:
Agreed. We need a motivator! A fire and brimstone hot gaspeller to really put it up (and out to) our complacent list. Hallelujah Saintsationalists!!!!
For the TRUE DECEIVERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:
The new Hole in the Ted gang.
That's nice to hear, but stuff the black throated finch and every other animal plant or bird life threatened with extinction! (Especially bloody magpies and bloody crows! ).
We still only care about all the money.
And about the s^^tf^^kery.

The answers to your questions Trev, are...................trev wrote:In which year the same team won both the wooden spoon and the flag? Is this a trick question? Did Ted put Waynecarey up to this?
Fitzroy in 1914,
no,
we can neither confirm nor deny that.
Hope that helps.
Stuff to like:
- Clark (in particular) and Coffield. These blokes need continuity! Bloody play them Cho!!!!!!!!!!
- Paddy didn't get concussed again. (We think.............?)
- Joe King didn't hurt his knee again. (We think.............?)
- Hanners’ got through another round of footy unscathed. (As far as we're aware.............?)
- The Marshall!!!
- We successfully avoided a potential cataclysm on Saturday night in cow country.
Stuff to not like:
- Why Paddy didn't (and can't) get concussed again.
- Why Joe King didn't hurt his knee again.
- Why Hanners’ got through another round of footy unscathed, but aware.
- We successfully avoided a potential catharsis (i.e.; a bloody win!) on Saturday night in cow country.

Report on The Ted Report:
We still can't get too much of a good thing! (Or sometimes, a green thing.) And neither it can Ted. So there is no Ted Report this week, man.
Opposition player to bag:

- Never forgetting Jamie 'seagull' Cripps!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!
We’re still maintaining the rage!!!!!! Traitor!!!!!!!! !!!!!
- Joel Smith – another traitor!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!
Next week back at Linton Lodger Stadium:

Options we're considering/not considering.................

- BAcres. (In. Into the bloody guts!!!)
- Langlands. (We still hear ya Saynta. )
OUTski:saynta wrote:F^^k yeah!
- Sinclair.
- MacKenzie.

Stiff as a badger’s ass (whatever that means? ):
Probably White, Joyce and Langlands..............again. Also Parker.
Final thought:
