Gut feel is that this will be a tight game, especially in the first half. Saints are a very solid defensive side, and play within their limitations. Easier to shut down a high pace, high talent team like the Blues on a smaller ground as well. Hopefully we can break free in the 2nd half. We're...

After I watched that interview, I was reminded why Channel 9 sacked Eddie from the CEO position. He's not the brightest spark. His interview "technique" is outright embarrassing. Rather than let the interviewee speak, he keeps interrupting them and trying to paraphrase them for some bizarre...

There's nothing "tough" about the sniper acts the Bombers players are involved in recently. It's actually outright cowardly. Toughness is about attack on the footy rather than trying to injure a player when tackled who's unable to protect themselves. Mitch Robinson is toughness. He'll knock...

They pinned Priddis's arms and then drove his head into the ground concussing him. Game over. Usually only one of Essendon's Hacky expendable types do this stuff, presumably just in case the MRP get involved. Think it was NLM this time. Low act, classic Essendon. :)

There's little doubt Sniperdon will be targeting the Richmond mids early in the next game. Practising their "clumsy" tackle technique at training during the week no doubt. They got Carrazzo and almost got Murph in our last game. They also took out Priddis in the recent game with one of those...

Having a good laugh at how the media are overhyping Essendon's pretty ordinary list. However, they do have some good purpose-selected snipers. We've seen them take out their damaging opponents with "clumsy" tackles to get the upper hand on gameday. It's low-life tactics like these that define...

Strange season. We're miles away from playing our best footy, with so-so form for most of it, and yet we're very close to top of the pre-finals series ranking ladder. Struggling to see who our main challengers will be this season - they all seem very flawed. Our aim is to just keep on ticking...

The Weagles poor list depth and reliance on senior players is getting found out a bit. Not convinced they'll finish top-4 actually. :)

Had to laugh. Just before the 3/4 time break Selwood went for the duck, and then all of a sudden he changed his mind and stood up in the tackle. The media attention on their cheating tactics has really got to their players. Very interesting. :)

Ellard over Lucas. Interesting. An inside mid instead of an outside mid. Maybe in response to our poor effort at stoppages last week. :)

Credit to that little GWS side. They're already playing a competitive brand of footy. A lot of thought has been put into making sure they have the right mix of older and younger players. They don't resort to cheating/staging for free's like the Weagles do, and don't play bruise free footy like...

Gibbs has been totally outstanding thus far, and there's heaps more upside left. Brilliant reader of the game, outstanding skills. Couldn't want anything more from a high draft pick actually. His height make's him extremely versatile - so we can use him up on the HFF or as a play maker across...

The EF Implosion V Weagles game tonight will be interesting, especially given all the much needed attention on the Weagles very effective free kick staging tactics. Hypothetical Question. Let's assume the Weagles didn't have this massive free-kick advantage from cheating. Would they still have...

Melbourne are a total disaster. They Tanked very hard for an extended period of time, got a truckload of draft picks, but then made some simply disastrous draft pick selections, and totality mismanaged player development and the handling of their senior player group. The result we're seeing is...

THe Dees V Tassie game was horrible. I could only stand about 15 to 20 minutes of it max. The weak clubs whine about not having enough Friday night games. But there's no point if they can't play and no-one turns up to their games. A complete waste of time. :)

The Selwood Master Class :)

Re: Rd. 7 St.Kilda v Carlton Monday 14th. May 7.40pm @ Etihad Shame Yarran's not playing. Hopefully he'll be 100% ready next week. Selection pressure is getting pretty serious. Great to see Bootsma in there with a chance. :)

Another Weagles Cheat in action.... Note the technique - drop to the knees and bend the neck to make contact with the tacklers arm to draw a free. Pathetic. :)

One of the little cheats in action.... I think it's fantastic some attention has been put onto these Cheating tactics by the Weagles. It might be OK in the WAFL, but we don't want that rubbish in the AFL. :)

Despite countless footage, stats, and acknowledgement by coaches, players, umpires of the Weagles Free Kick Staging/Cheating tactics, good ol' Johnny Worsfold says it's a "mystery to him". This is the same guy who coached Cousins for 10 years, and told the football world that "Cousins didn't...

Probably not, but that may change. Thought he was OK in the last game, but was poor against the Elimination Final Implosionists. Laidler would definitely get picked before him, but he could develop into a Thornton-type swing role. :)

Will be interesting to see what happens this week after all the attention on the Weagles Cheating techniques to milk free's. Even the umps have weighed in on the issue. First we had to put up with Weagleland's out of control endemic drug culture, and now this. :)

Their new mascot apparently. :)

Re: Rd. 7 St.Kilda v Carlton Monday 14th. May 7.40pm @ Etihad Looking forward to Hampson's game. He's building form quite nicely. Starting to become a KPF/ruck rather than a ruck/KPF. :)

Essendon a rubbishy little side, who got the jump on us in the last game with some trademark ugly sniper tactics i.e. "if you can't beat your opponents, injure them" strategy. Even then we almost rolled them in the last 1/4. Talent-wise we're miles ahead. It's not even close. This is why I'm...

There's rumour that Richmond will extend Hardwick's contract to 10 years after their big win over Port. :)

Did they report Waite this week? :)

Re: Rd. 7 St.Kilda v Carlton Monday 14th. May 7.40pm @ Etihad The Thornton V Bower selection decision is an interesting one. Thornton's a better forward, and a better contested mark, but as a pure defender it's much closer, and Bower might even shade him just, although Bower's effort a few...

Duigan actually played well in the EF. He's been a fantastic acquisition. Just outstanding. Ditto Laidler who's arguably our most important defender. Strange that we're so "miserly" because we're without question the most attacking team in the AFL. We do have a A-grade quality defensive lineup...

It might be time for the AFL rules committee to start reviewing the free-kick staging techniques the Weagles are using. It's getting a bit out of control. Totally against the spirit of the game. :)
