FDOTM = black cat walking across our season? My fault for betting on getting to the prelim?

Farkit, call the witch doctor, rub the lamp, someone remove the curse.

He!He! Thanks for helping me raise a smile.......Best wishes to the Glove on a speedy recovery! Probably good time to bring in some kids and give them a taste of finals footy??

Shit. Bugger. Crap.

It just gets worse and worse.

What he said!
I've shed a tear and felt sorry for myself, now I want Dale to have a full recovery and good health. I'm so sad that his season is over, he has been a rock this year. Cheers Dale
There are worse things happening in the world....I'm just having a bit of trouble thinking of what they are just at this minute. Still looking forward to the next few weeks, Go Dogs!

Damn its hard being a dog. How is it possible? Cooney and Morris were also badly injured last finals series, the same 2 desperately required players.

I hear Rod is off to stonehenge to sacrifice a magpie to the pagan gods...

Re: Morris out for the season!

We're going to have to play kids by definition now - but I wouldn't be going into a finals series with the view "let's play him, he'll learn a lot for next time".

Agree there will need to be a tactical shift. This is a major blow and I don't think we can do it now. However, blokes need to stand up.

Who knows, maybe the Pies will lose two blokes in the first 15min against us and be down on rotations. Or maybe some of our under achievers will show what they can do.

On current form we're no chance without coon and Dale, but if guys play to their potential - who know..?

Happy to give Rod a lift and possible extend the trip to other venerable sites like Glastonbury Tor, Blarney Castle, Lourdes....even Mecca if I thought it would do any good.

Seriously though......you can't help bad luck with injuries and this year the rub of the green hasn't really gone our way. We have struggled to get our best players on the park. However, we have still finished fourth....albeit we are limping into the finals.....great oportunity now to let Grant, Wood, Jones get some finals experience.

Re: Morris out for the season!

Terrible news hearing this on the way home tonight....we're going to need something very special to happen for us to have any say this finals series without 2 of arguably our 5 most important guys, Lake under a cloud of somewhat, Murphy having another indifferent year and Hudson beginning to show the effects of a big season.

Hopefully this misfortune leads to some great experience for the kids, and a real opportunity to test the waters with a few players before seasons end. If a few of the older blokes miss out, so be it. We really need one eye firmly on the future at this point, if not both.

Re: Morris out for the season!

Jeez this hurts, you can feel the year just slipping away. What a waste, hope we go out swinging though. No lying down now lets give them a fright and see what happens.

Re: Morris out for the season!

I'm thinking its more bad luck for Morris and Coons who will miss out in playing in a Grand Final

P.s. Excuse my high hopes
