    Gold Coast very ordinary. They lack skills, they lack ball movement and just a below average team.

    All the talk coming out of the club going into the week was ultra negative. Not surprised they've turned their toes up.
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

    Hopefully some of their guns want out to Victoria, like every other year, and come to our humble big club.

    Port have feasted on some poor teams.

    Port have had a great draw .Poor form from rocket who really set the scene with his commentary .
    Sydney have got their form back, and will be difficult to beat .
    Norf got whacked around the footy, and josh Kennedy was on target for 50 touches to half time
    How Richmond was that ? Shocking for 3 quarters, then to lose on the siren

    Caro gave Rocket an almighty spray on Footy Classified on Monday night.

    He gave his players an excuse a week out from the game and the players obliged.

    Apart from us losing of course and the Woods stuffing up the round worked out quite well for us. 8th on the ladder and one game off first. I think we can account for both Geelong and St.Kilda although both are tough matches. Be interesting to see where we are on the ladder in 14 days time.

    Dusty was pathetic on Neale, ball chasing rubbish

    We are due to have a big win. We need to boost our percentage. So tight in the 8 as we want to aim for top 4.

    I could keep watching that last 24 seconds over and over again.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

    This is possibly the funniest football video I have ever seen.

    Watched it 10 times already.
