    Final quarter was scintillating football. Whether the Roos took the foot off he pedal, or the dogs put he foot down, credit is still due for that final term!

      Big day, saw Jones' first goal (hopefully first of many) Baz has a day out and draws level in the Coleman, and I just became an uncle!

      Go dogs!

        Jones' "first goal" wasn't touched IMO. Congrats on unclehood.

          Bit of a shame that the umpires missed it, but he looks a player so we are going to have plenty more goals from him to celebrate. Happy Days
          The curse is dead.

            Great game Dogs, and I stand corrected about Williams, he did some good things today, so well done.

            Glad we weren't playing at the G today!

              Yes, very pleased about our ruck and tall forward stocks coming through.

              All we need now is a small speedy crumber, and to draft some decent tall defenders.

                Bad call from the goal ump....was a joke of a call...would love to see a reply of it tho....but from where i was(was right in front of me) he kicked it with his foot and it clearly went through for a goal.....

                  Good way to finish off what was, for a while a fairly uninspiring match. Early on, we were sloppy and inefficient - against a better side, we'd have been in trouble. Pleasing to see us pick it up as the game went on and pull away in the last. If I was coaching, I'd be putting some focus on tackling; I thought some Norf's players got away too easily.

                  Bazza was terrific today, not only kicking the majors himself, but giving it off to others, and using his body well. I thought he was disciplined, and didn't let the flogs get to him. Johnno I thought is moving better, and put in some nice kicks. Roughy is doing well, and looks the goods for the ruck in a couple of years. He can take a grab, moves well and has good anticipation. Wood had a good outing, he's prepared to take them on and back himself (a bit too keen at times though). Good game from Gia, career high I believe. Also got involved around the ground.

                  In all, great to have a big win again, but plenty to work on.

                    I saw the replay on TV and in slow mo it was a goal.

                              Thumbs down to Commetti who said our premiership window was actually a keyhole with such an ageing list. I don't have any issues with someone having a differing opinion but he even name checked Aker as an example of the quality we'll be losing.

                              He also made some bizarre comments about the 97 finals campaign and Darcy's article.

                              Got the feeling he might be one of Aker's text buddies.
                              Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

                                I am usually a fan of Dennis but he made the point of letting everyone know he wasn't impressed with our big circle last week, I thought it was great, the club showing the footy public that we are united no matter what everyone says. Bad call Dennis.
