The lack of consistency of what the umpires are calling tonight to this afternoon's game is just annoying.
I'd hate to be a supporter of either team really.

Poor cry baby had a shocker. That shot just before 3/4 time was one where a captain needs to stand up and he missed badly. Then the attempt in the last was just embarrassing. To quote our cheer squad and grog squad:

"There's no doubt we've got the best Riewoldt :yep
There's no doubt we've got the best Riewoldt
There's no doubt we've got the best Riewoldt
And he doesn't ------- cry!" 
;D


The big question now is whether Ross Lyon will walk to Melbourne. The heart would hold a fair bit of loyalty to the current St Kilda group but the head would be saying the Saints' window has closed and will need a full rebuild (ie. he'll get sacked once they fall away). The Dees' list is one that could rise with a good coach to extract the best out of it. If Lyon sees himself as a career coach as reported then he'll get his manager to phone his namesake and ask Garry if that reported long-term coaching offer is on the table.

Love the courage of the swans
Bad luck for the sainters

Would rather see these teams running around sept instead of bummers or the blues, but was not meant to be

My only gripe with last nights game was the holing the ball rule, it is inconsistent at best  :thumbsup

makes change from playing sides into form though.
“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."

I said the pretty much same thing to someone last night.

Still question marks over how they'll go on the bigger oval of MCG but Hawks aren't much of a running side.

Sounds like Ross Lyon has put a couple of Saints into forced retirement as from their tweets Baker and Eddy denied they had retired  :whistle

Well, the Carlton vs Essendon game to start shortly.

As much as I hate Essendon, I hate Carlton more and would love them to be disposed of in straight sets today.  :pray

Ross Lyon was probably doing them a favour as classing them as retirees instead of being delisted.
