    Some decent games on paper this week (Richmond vs West Coast notwithstanding).

    Hopefully Gawn can continue his run of form and put Hawthorn to the sword, and fingers crossed GWS can remember how to football after a few weeks off.
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

      GWS have an incredible record at Geelong. Toby Greene could do everyone a favour and teach Bailey Smith some humility.

          I don't think we need to limit Toby. He has several methods he has employed.

                Have the AFL spin merchants made any announcement regarding their investigations.

                  I was going to but feared Willie would send me threats.

                    Tom Morris reporting that the afl was going to suspend him for 1 game anyway but won't bother now that he's withdrawn himself.

                    That's not a joke. Bush. League.

                      While I'm not fan of the Dee's I'd love to see the Hawks drop one against them.

                          That Freo loss was very 2023 Bulldogs.

                            Oh my you took the thought out of my head. That fast start. The missed chances. Only to be run over fairly easily in reality. I didn't see the whole game but I thought the exact same thing.

                              They have all the pieces to be a very good, top 4 contending side. Competitive ruck, A grade mids (Young is a huge loss though), dangerous forward line & solid defensive group.

                              The game plan is a mess.
