    Re: Round 10 - Other Matches

    Don't think the mixed messages Watters has sent out as helped them.
    Hardly a juggernaut as he was quoted last year.
    Similar to us they're paying for some poor drafting and list management.
    Don't be afraid of the Re-building word Watters

        I know this was intended as a bit of a joke, but Port would have definitely woken up knowing they played a game of footy last night.

        Was with a mate of mine, a pies fan, and he was really in awe of some of the hits we laid yesterday. We tackle with a ferocity that makes a mockery of those comparing us to Melbourne.

        As much as I would like to attribute that to St Kilda's leather drowning today, I suspect they're just sh*fully ordinary.

          Correct on both counts. The Saints are a couple of seasons behind us now.

            Similar to us, they threw everything at trying to win a flag and fell short by the smallest of margins. Some poor list management decisions along the way haven't helped but the reality their supporters and officials must now face is that it's going to be a long ride to get themselves back up.

            Goddard's decision to jump ship looks very wise right now.
            Have you heard Butters wants to come to the Dogs?

              It's been 15 years since Boomer Harvery has kicked 5 goals in a game. He's a star.

                Yep, a champion of the game.

                  He has accomplished alot and has a wonderful CV but I always felt he played for himself more than the team.

                    I'm not sure about that, but there's always been something about him that has held him back from being a true superstar in my eyes. His numbers over such a long period of time do stack up really well though.

                    He's probably just a small way off the truly elite of the modern generation for mine, but nonetheless he's had a great career.

                      I just have a general dislike for him. His dive in Canberaa that got Boyd reported stands out in my mind as a key reason, not to mention his frequent dirty actions which get him suspended.
                      I should leave it alone but you're not right

                        He jokingly suggested during an interview on MMM last night that as soon as he has two bounces all the boys know to either shepherd or get out of his way.

                        Gun player though. Can only hope those comparing Hrovat to him are right. Just without the suspensions and diving and stuff.

                        Saints below us on the ladder. Funny stuff

                          That last goal attempt is the perfect example. All about boomer.


                          No doubt if he played for us I would love him though.

                            Heard a Saint fan refer to us as a "Rabble" two weeks ago!

                            Stkilda calling anyone a rabble is hilarious

                              I can't watch this . It looks like 36 players with the same guernsey on!
                              Ridiculous.

                                West Coke have been beyond rubbish tonight - to be frank, they've beaten nobody all season. At least their fans (and Gerard Healy) get to marvel at Nic Nat tapping it straight to the opposition at every stoppage.
