Flossy and Dusty really add something to the guts. Any reason Cotchin couldn't move to a wing? This works.

Yes I'm just really glad Dimma waited for 7 rounds in with 1 win before moving these two off half back... :whistle :whistle

Another great effort from the boys.  Only lost by 10 goals in the last 35-40 mins of footy to the Hawthorn reserves.  Keep making us proud.  Come second half of the year, when all the bottom clubs are tanking for draft picks, we will kick it up a notch and win a few games.  They will be as meaningful as our home and away win against north at the end of last year.

Hardwick's tigers.  Losing when it matters.

Interesting......
...or we could just play all three in the guts? You know, like they should've been doing from day one. Apart from that, the wings are for pacey gut runners and putting Cotchin there is a good way to completely waste his biggest strengths which are contested possessions and clearances.

Defining moment?

Grigg gets a free and plays on trying to handball to Dusty while on his hands and knees

After turning it over he flaps arms at the umpire and asks why did you call play on?

Please you moron  :banghead :banghead

And you wonder why Dan said blokes like you cant take us any further  ;D

Yes, and then Dan had to join Grigg and the other top-up moneyball hacks in the Kerford Road early morning drink to apologise if he had hurt anybody's feelings with his comments. FFS, the joint is a brothel and it needs the biggest broom putting through every corner of it.

"Yeah I went in the water with the players. It was simply one in all in," Richardson said.

"I took it upon myself to go in with them after I heard they had organised one themselves not because anyone had done anything especially wrong, but they thought it would be a good thing for them to do and I just thought why not? I'll join them, it was one in all in .... I got a good welcome from the boys."

Richardson said he had discussions with Grigg this week but the decision to join the players in wading into the bay on Wednesday morning was not related to that conversation.

"That was unconnected. I have discussions with players all the time about where they sit so that was fine. I had a chat to Shaun but that as not unusual. He knows that, especially in the form he is in at the moment, he is an important player for us," he said.
 :huh
