I had 2 daughters and that was plenty. Just wait for the teenage years aka the antichrist years...

Been there, done that and good luck...... ;) Boys are so much easier....

I have five girls and yes they do come out okay after there teens,if you stay sane long enough to see it .But wouldn't swap them for anything as they are always on my side and they support the blues not like there swan supporting mother.

Fortunately both daughters are now adults and have good lives. One has a son who is all trouble - karma  ;)

Now i admit not seeing the game last week, but Brad Walsh been killing it in the two's and by the sounds of it, came on and had an impact. Now omitted. Why not sit him next to Sam Mitchell all day and ask him to beat him in the contest as many times as he can...

We'll miss Doc but Clem, Carrotts and the Holster.... those three have a bit of crap in 'em and won't die wondering.  I feared this might be a 200 point flogging but I reckon we can keep it to 160 points.

DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

Because Ellard needs another opportunity to prove himself.  :-\

Finally got it! We're miles ahead of Freo & North and been resting our top players for finals for most of the year, with this week no exception.

Plan worked well apart from the finals bit.

This is going to be a spanking, 138 points is in danger.
White and Jaksch injured, Henderson AWOL and Jones still can't get a game, recruiting him was a good call.
Congratulations on parenthood RE, I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
My daughter's getting married next week by the way, I'm feeling rather aged.

LOL amazing stuff isn't it? Down to our last 26 players and Jones can't get a game! Remember in the preseason when Mick was talking him up as a 'powerful beast' and 'going to be unstoppable', 'recruit of the year' etc.

I live in the western suburbs and know a lot of Footscray supporters, not one of them was sorry to see the back of him.
I think we're just that desperate for anyone remotely resembling a key position player that we took the punt, and Malthouse was just pumping up his tyres in the hope it would motivate him.
Watson's getting another game after his stellar 6 touches last weekend, that's got to tell you something.

Now that your mate is getting a game...after game...after game....have you come to the same conclusion as everyone else? That he is not up to AFL standard?

As bad as Jones has been, i reckon he offers us more than Watson....still.
