We’re not Melbourne.

Stay home TD. The rest of us will go and cheer on the team.

Don't underestimate the Magpie Army. This, almost certainly, is the last chance to watch us play in 2024. And everyone wants to see Sidey in his new tagging role!

Fly will never accept anything other than that. You play to win.

Can we win this game by about 250 points please

 

[Scodog10]

Ah, you want to drop Lippa then?

I thought Bytel was infinitely worse on that front, but could live with Lipinski being the one. Brisbane had Neale, Ashcroft and McCluggage flicking it around like they had it on a string to open up that 5 goal lead. We were very fortunate they blew some guilt edged opportunities in front of goal. Ball handling is a clear area of improvement in 2025.

I could see a couple of forwards kicking bags of 10 this Friday Night.

If the umpires pay free kickk towards Cox for a night. We might be half way there

As a St Kilda poster pointed out, if St Kilda annihilates Carlton by over 10 goals, and we smash the DreamOns by a similar amount, we could sneak in.

We would have to win by 100 and them lose by 100.

A longshot but would not surprise me.
I'm in for a real beating on Melbourne.60+ is what I feel.
Go Saints.

JFK? That would be weird.

JFK? That would be weird.

Assuming thats meant to be JFN?

 

[Kappa]

Time for Fly to play the kids

You'd hope so because JFK would be a bit crusty

You want to dig him up for Friday?

President John Fitzgerald Kennedy is interred in Lot 45, Section 30, Arlington National Cemetery.

Frampton has been good. Nobody was stopping most of Daniher's goals yesterday. He is still a part of our future too.

 

[domus]

As far as I'm concerned, there's no point in playing Fin. We know he's not up to AFL standard. No issues with us keeping 'Peter' Parker in the team and bringing in Allan and Reef. I think Bytel will be given a 'rest'.

Bytel truly looked like a VFL player yesterday.
