It doesn't work like that. You could also say our draw with the pathetic Tiggers can now be looked at in a new light. As I said before, GWS and Richmond have been repeatedly slaughtered in recent games (except against us).
Actually, it can work like that. It's my light, not yours :D
Get back on top.

Me either. Not impressed with him at all. He battles hard, i'll give him that. But he is not the answer to any really good question. Where is Sier at?

Maynard cost us the game. Its been a long time since he made such a horrific mistake so we can forgive him. But boy oh boy, it reminded me o f the early years with him doing so many good things but making lots of bonehead mistakes. All he had to do was kick the goddamn little ball first .....

anyone else notice that DeGoey is a choker on the set shot. I think its been two years since he kicked a set shot for goal straight. he is still good on the run arouind snap but he cant actually kick the ball through the big sticks with a regular drop punt. I must have seen him shank at least 30....

If Josh Thomas was one of our best in the recent scratch match, there could be a good reason to bring him in as well. He is a very accurate shot on goal. But that would make 4 changes...

WE will get these bastards next time, and it wont be on their own pissing ground next time, beat em when it counts, next time, revenge is a dish best served cold.

We had them on our home ground in September last year, when it counted and lost. PnC, these guys, like the Hawks are in our head now.

What we really need is permission from the AFL for Googs to take the mark and then JT to come on to the field to take his set shot for him.

Otherwise we'd have to use James Mansonesque acting.

It's funny, that's what I was thinking of when Mayne was lining up for goal in the last quarter. As he missed it I was wondering if he had pulled that act, whether the ball would be taken to the closest player before or after the 50 was awarded.

you can see it in his eyes that he believes he is going to miss every time. zero confidence. It used to look cool when he would run around and do the snap. now we know why ....
