Does no one apart from Willy simply watch them and barrack for them because they just like the team? If you get zero enjoyment from just watching them do their thing good or bad, frustrating or not then I don't know why you bother even talking about them?

Well, it's like this, Mr Right.....

The thing with the formative years is, they're formative.
We are the byproduct of base level marketing, Australian social peer pressure and having grown up playing the game.

When something is wrong with something you think you hold dear to yourself, then like minded Genius will bond.

You're really quite lucky to witness such.

That and it's really fun watching the happy citizens revel in ignorance.

It's an interesting theory not without merit.

Psychologists reckon that as adults we are programmed to seek out partners which take on the relationship we had with our parents when we were young.

So if ones Dad was an arse and a control freak, we are drawn to the tension of partners that behave similarly.

Obviously our coaches don't see the need for speed  :-\

so you put more importance on a players pace than how often he gets the pill?

Nope

But as was shown last week when you don't have the pill, you need to be able to chase those who have it.

Last week we were exposed for our lack of leg speed and I reckon other sides would have made a note of that

Agree. Leg speed critical. Badly exposed last week.

so which of our speedy players should have got a game and can adequately compensate for not getting the ball by being able to run down the opposition?
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

I hope Vlastuin is OK. Because the guy is a gun and I have him in my supercoach team.

Jackstar is back!!!

Reckon Vlas would need a few more decent games under his belt before we can start labelling him as a gun :-\

One game Bateman, I'm a believer but he needs to string some games together.

Against minimal to zero opposition pressure.

And if you don't believe Carlton are that bad, keep an eye on the score against Essendon today from 2pm
