Robert Heatley Stand / 2018 Rd 2: Post Game Prattle: Carlton vs Gold Coast
Last week's party was a wake, even though we did show some decent signs.
I hate that. Richmond lost last night because Adelaide were that bit more mature and could respond better when challenged. That is what I want us to be: able to respond when challenged.

Richmond is also know for their fanatic pressure. That is another thing I want us to be known for.

So this week, the winner is ...

Robert Heatley Stand / 2018 Jim Park Voting: Rd 2: Carlton vs Gold Coast
I guess it has the fact that we have disappointed for so long that makes me fill with trepidation. However, I will be there. There will be people who deserve votes.

OK, guys. I'm all ready for tomorrow. Right down to the Angst flowing through my body. Car'n the Blues!

[2] No more than 10 votes for any one player.
[3] Give a rating of team performance. It can be anywhere from A+ to F.
[4] Votes must add up to 15.

Robert Heatley Stand / 2018 VFL Practice Match: Northern Blues vs Port Melbourne
This game was set for 1100 at Port on Saturday, but is now being played at Cragieburn.  :o
Apparently they are worried about the surface at Port.  >:D I've always considered North Port Oval to be a hole: a mud hole.  >:D

The team has yet to be published, but should be stronger than last week.

Robert Heatley Stand / 2018 Jim Park Medal Analysis
With the season just a few days away and expectations of an improved on field performance high, it is with interest that I start up this year's Jim Park Medal Thread.
Voting last year was patchy, with the votes coming from as few as 12 people one week to 24 the next. Hopefully we can perform in such a way as to make our people vote.

But I have a 1t question before I set up the spreadsheet and let it rip: do we want to retain the Jim Park Award as it is?

Ladies Lounge / AFLW Rd 7: Carlton vs Freo at Freo
A disappointing season will finish this weekend when we play Freo over in the West. Hopefully a few of our WA supporters will be there to make some noise.
We do have a reasonable chance of winning, but we will have to make a big change to what we've been doing of late. Getting the ball out of the middle will be a start!
