Difference between this year and last I reckon is we won't be able take top two for granted at any point. The intensity and form will need to continue until season end. It won't happen but I'd love to see Port get up. Would have the higher ground for following week. Control what we can control, but ...

Is Wilson trying to get back into our good-books?

Nearly any team you play toward the end of the season will have something to play for. Be it for a top four or to secure finals or to get into finals. It's all pretty desparate. Fringe players in teams sure to play finals are interesting to watch. For us from now it will be very competative between ...

Don't think I'd risk Gram in the VFL , he's too important.
Mini, Peake, Gears, Steven all potential outs for Gram.
All playing well, great it's so tough!
RL may surprise by resting a few of top 18.
But unlikely as four points crucial before the Pies.
This is all very positive talk.

If he's raring to go he's raring to go. Familiar turf is Qld. Potentially 3 gigantic ins for us this week. This is what we've been waiting for!

I love stuff like that. Not bad considering his tackle count is good.

Goddard nearly took mark of the year (hell of a spoil) but Milne made it a highlight reel. Got the four points, and Jonesy was outstanding. We had a nine day break (I think) before playing Carlton - even Lyon thought we were lethargic. Gotta watch that, but we drilled the game, so no worries. Happy ...

Really dont read it if you dont like it.

How do you know you don't like it if you don't read it?
100% agree re strawman. A pretty lazy bit of journalism.

"...but there is a real possibility he was protected by police" A real possibility? Why, what does she know that we don't already? A retired cop re-iterates a complaint he made at the time. What cunning insider knowledge does she own? She's amazing. "Why, if the young men had no case ...

Close. Next week Stanley out and Nick in to interchange with Patto or other like option in CHF role. Patto is getting a warm up game to assist with transition match next week.

You know who really hates you when this type of thing happens. Keep the list. And would like to see that MRP a*rsehole act manly on an AFL oval. He wouldn't know what manly is. In fact, cowardly to say it from behind a panel.

I think he's really started to show quality now. Been impressive last few weeks. Maybe he's settling into his backline position as appears to suit in the marks he takes, spring out of the 50m arc, and aggressiveness when the ball is in the danger zones. Go get 'em Gears!

'Whoever wrote this is a pr*ck.'

That was my comment. Don't think they'll publish it somehow.

Footy Show is a bundle of corporate sh*t creating the worlds most shameless partnership in footy exploitation. Look what nine and the Hun did too Milne last week. They are scum and have no integrity. Just whore themselves on anything. The panel are turds. Smugly attempting to be in the know. What f*...

maybe so that he misses on playing for the reserves so that others can build up form, just my guess.

I presume because you need an emergency ruck, like a goalkeeper. Unsure why Kingy's not on there though.

I turn it off not after long always. It's a show for bogans.

I had an idiot behind shouting "Milne off Montagna on" like it was the wittiest joke in the world. Then Milne got close "hey Milne..." and just as he continued I blasted over the top "Onya Milne you're a champion mate". I was doing that at the Carlton game too. It mitig...

Agree. Think Milne & Schneider need to be sharp and dangerous for us to win.

Is it worse than saying bald fat and ugly..if so why? Should not all remarks whether its colour religion race size shape appearance be banned? Stupid. You don't put size, looks or baldness in the same category as racial slurs. The discriminatory history against indigenous people in this country is ...

Gives the Freo coach something else to whinge about.

Yep. I Want It All before the game and We Are The Champions after. Perfect.

Big news over there?

I've got an unsubstantiated theory in my head that his leg muscle development was over-worked in the summer which contributed to his injury due to tightness. I wouldn't imagine the conditioning team admitting to this. As long as his legs are back to skinny - I'll be happy, provided he's given the al...

We'll win because Fish will got to Pav, won't he?

Harvey's trying it on, and Ross is cutting him down to size. Proud of him.
