This new site is taking a little time to adjust to, and understand, but it is way faster. Be interesting if it doesn't exist, to have an info area that explains how everything works and what it means (Shout etc). For new people and idiots like me. Having said that I bet it already exists but I haven't found it yet.
Mantis, glad to see the return of the green stick, but not quite as green as I remember.
Look closer buddy. This is the revamped cyborg type new technology bug. I have another too which will surface from time to time. At BBB.
Thanks for the write up. I always worry pressing a button will send me to the darkest side of cyberspace. Maybe turn this site up side down and inside out.

I was living in hope that Kreuzer, Gibbs and Murphy would be better than Judd by mid next season. I'm guessing that isn't going to happen, but there is time for me to be proven a complete idiot. At the moment he is our most valuable and best player.
These 4 are players I would like to see play as many games in the seniors before the season ends. If they are part of our future, we need to see them develop in the real world. The AFL.
Gointocarlton, its probably nothing for us to worry about, but Kate was giving Hughesy heaps on Nova 100.3 this morning about it. I just wanted to smash the radio because its media exposure for us all over again. I was hoping to forget the last game and just vent hear amongst reliable, friendly supporters. Blowing off some steam and hearing some inspiring insights from those who have some footy knowledge. Do we really want everyone talking about us all week.
Heard enough cr@p from Lyon and Lloyd about how we have chosen the worst draft picks in footy history (Basically in not exact words). Now I will be hearing about this BBQ for the next few days and the footy show will bring this up for certain. Now just imagine we lose to the Saints on Saturday, and what Footy Classified will say, along with the news papers, footy show again and Kate on the radio laughing at Hughes again ? Is this what we need at the moment ? Or do we focus on how we will beat the Saints and make sure it happens at any cost ? Its me isn't it ? I'm the ignorant tool.
How did that BBQ go I heard Mick talking about today. Is that a joke or was that for real. I don't think I have ever heard of something like this before a crunch game, after a loss we just want to forget.
Won't get alot of enthusiasm from the NBs now given many have a fair idea they'll get the @rse at year's end.
Many playing for the NB's should have thought about that weeks ago. Not happy with all the reports I read of players struggling in the NB side, and these are guys we need to be in the firsts. Can't develop all our players in the seconds.
Comparing Ratten to Mick will never work. We will never know how far Ratten could take his players, and haven't seen what Mick can do in half a season. Most of what Walls is saying makes sense, but most of it is also emotional, because he feels Ratten wasn't given a chance. He would say the Same if he grabbed Paul Roos and were in the exact same position now.
Not too concerned who plays and which players are dropped for this game. Just need to see some intensity and genuine effort to execute some basic fundamentals.
1. Attack the player with the ball and apply a genuine tackle to bring the player to ground.
2. Run hard offensively and run as hard back to defend on a rebound or with a football turnover.
3. 2nd and 3rd efforts a must by every player.
4. Protect your team player with the footy. Sheppard, bump, shove, and block his running path at all cost.
5. Don't be selfish and play for your own benefit. Play for the benefit of the entire team.
6. Stand tall and don't let the Saints bully you. Be mentally strong and you will be physically strong. Its part of our logo. Read it, study it, learn it, and enforce it. Do it FFS. Just do it. Try hard to get this right and I won't mind a loss. Be genuine and impress me as a supporter. Its the minimum I deserve. Now go get them.
It all sounds great - why do I think they won't do it!?!?!?
Play team football, go hard for the ball, win the contest, be first to the ball etc. Think it will catch on?
Which ever player fails to try, they should be traded or dropped. Its the only way we get rid of the drift wood. The above would be my KPI.

Early call Sheik. Either way we are just on that balancing edge. I think we are better playing some of the younger guys, but still enough experience to try to beat the Saints. Once we drop that game our season is completely finished because of our draw. Its hard to say though. Mathematically we are a chance to get into the top 8, by reality shows we won't. Too little given by the players too late. Or should I say they have given nothing of late.
Wow. Thanks for getting me in spanner. I've been trying now for a few hours with no chance of getting in. You finally got me in champ. I hope it doesn't take me forever to understand how to use this site. Us bugs keep life simple you know.
