    Speaking of Higgins, I was disappointed with his defensive efforts and all round game today. Just a lack of care and intensity one on one, really cost us at times. Didn't get enough of it in space either which suggests his work rate was down.

    Had his colours lowered tonight.

    Just noting that a 197cm key forward usually has his best days ahead of him at his age
    If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

    From a mate but Higgins is very likely to stay. Im not sure there is any interest from Hawthorn.

    Here's one, tonight Dwayne Russell said that Collingwood are after Libba. I think we have him tied up until 2016 but not sure.
    I hope he's talking though his arse like he usually does.

    What a knob. It doesn't deserve a proper response it's that inane.

    Perhaps a bit harsh. More than once he competed effectively against bigger guys.
    I was a little concerned about his condition today. His first kick was a dreadful shank and looked to me like someone who had started with a pain killing injection to just get out there.
    Just an observation.

    Melbourne star Dom Tyson says greater opportunities await of GWS players move away

    An interesting snippet from the article:

    A handful of Giants are coming out of contract with Carlton and the Western Bulldogs linked to swingman Kristian Jaksch and several clubs led by Richmond and Melbourne keen on powerful midfielder Dylan Shiel.

    This is my favourite thread. Whenever it pops up I have a little internal..'ooh baby'.
    I don't think we can stuff around any longer. We need to target that big key forward, and not an old washed up, bargain. (PLEASE NOT WAITE)
    We need to get one to grow up with our current crop.

    My husband keeps arguing for Waite, and I keep saying, no way.

    Waite will be 32 before the start of next season. Maybe if we were challenging for a flag next year you would go there, but in no way does he fit where we are as a club at the moment.

    Surely Waite would not pass BMac's 'solid citizen' test. Waite is an A grade d$#%head.

    You're never a truly washed up key forward until you have Bulldog supporters demanding their club picks you up.
