The weed has had many chances though.

I don't think your current forward line will get it done in big games.

 

Need a big forward.

[Will27]

Well people

That caps of a great round of <deleted> footy.

 

Rips get's the Snickers this week with an excellent 7.

He also moves into 2nd place by virtue of the margin.

 

Ozzdom still out front with a bit of a logjam for 2nd.

 

Until next week.

Ben Brown needs to be given a chance mate.

Need more than Bennie in the team mr WILL...... Joey Chestnut could be the answer, broke his own record by 1, scoffing down 76 hot dogs on  the 4th of july sir, with buns included, the female equivalent just over 30 and all in 10 min i might add....she of course is a pig and he a hero.....

 

One of my first dates on becoming single 20 odd years ago and thats after being married for 20 ys was with at tall blonde rather pretty not super slim but ok, you know, the ex-wife was petite and not into eating much so it came as a surprise that this woman cleaned the plate so well it didnt need washing....im still not use to women who eat a lot and will stare with tongue hanging out if they attempt to eat the table bare.....

 

Anyway the current female champion was on maternity leave though how anyone could notice is beyond me but she was good for 40 hot dogs last year......

 

Last time we lost it was more than evident that Ben Brown was needed in the forward line, anyway again we were beaten around the packs but had we a very tall option who can take a mark it could have been the difference, im thinking Simon is waiting to bring Big Ben in due to not giving teams close to the finals the chance to work us out.....you know, an advantage, well i tell myself this to keep my sprits high, so within the next few weeks Ben will be in......no word on Sam signing a contract so im expecting a first round pick from the Pies and anything less would be a gift.....

 

Port next week, Cats in the last game, Bulldogs and haha Eagles to come....really im not tipping Eagles again this year....

Quick off the mark for an old codger.....not much to do up in the deserts off Udon?

 

Yes Simon has been embarrassed into selecting Ben Brown........mind you they picked up Mitch Brown in 2019 and renewed his contract for this year for a staggering 4 games so far and was touted as a tall forward, the Revolving Doors as in Magic who has yet to see light of day well if he's played a game at Casey no one is talking about it....

 

Anyway he is in and for god's sake leave him in, they could also shift one of them short forwards, no name yet its famous at North, been coasting a bit lately and a bit of a rev up in the middle of the ground men......id be putting Harmes as the number one Midfielder, he is easily the silkiest cleanest Mid we have now there decided he is not a half back who was starving to death back there.......he is and always will be a midfielder than can play as a mid/forward/stopper and run off his opponent..... men.....Oliver can play second fiddle to him and Viney injury sub....there been talking about some kid firing at Casey name escapes me.....bring him in .....time for a bit of a shake up me thinks....

[AlexRRR]

The coaching merry go round is gathering momentum men....

 

Pies in need, Rattern, Teague, Stewie Dew and Simon Goodwin out of contract end off season, Hawks made it plain Mitchell is coach from 2023 so.......where to now Alastair?

 

Saints and Suns are likely to renew as like who's going to go there?

 

Dont see Clarkson at the Blues....but i do see Simon Goodwin going there.....yes i do, fingers crossed....in a dream last night.....Williams to take over at the Demons or Clarkson, well Al did play a few games for us men and retired there so its only natural he would want to coach there some day.....thats what we tell our selves, have noticed the new president isnt rushing to beat down Simons door for he to sign a new contract.....Happend with Northey, Demons took there sweet time to resign him so went to the Swans....peed off i was about that but this time.......i dont care....

 

Wonder what the board think of Simon....the best air tight contract known to Australian football coaches of any code.....maybe Simon and Sam Weideman will go to the Magpies.....thats a nice thought.....

 

 

[AlexRRR]

Wow.....woke to a expanded everything on the 32 inch monitor.......

 

Friday funnies on a Thursday.....will shut the MacBook down after this see if goes back to normal but you can imagine this page on a 32 inch monitor

[AlexRRR]

oops....its playing funny bunnies with me....not intended to post untill finished.....touchy magic mouse.....

 

Well in the lead up to tonights game decided to be entertained last night....new film...Will Smith, no relation to the famous Will here, and im sure Will here would choose better parts for a movie too....Gemini man....take a wide berth....action paction, would make the slow moving Thai expats tired by the 15 min mark of the movie....i was on bed by 10.30 so that tells you something....

 

Fast moving movie with nothing making sense, flying across countries all beaten up able to get in with no passports and healed upon arrival....money materialising great hotels and of course Will always has his bag full of guns, yes he does...its the type of movie your not meant to think to "much" on....gees ive changed normally i would have witched this rubbish off by the 15 min mark...but i hung in all the 2 hrs worth of it....cross between ninja, kung fooie, mission impossible, star wars and a few others i cant think this early in the morning.... This would be a good movie to take your Thai woman too as we have all learned by now they have absolutely no taste in movies.....Kiki an ex TGF wanted to see a movie after work one night so i met her down at Paragon, i knowing that what would be on offer wouldnt suite me just went along for the ride as you know to keep your woman  happy sort of thing....well she choose that movie Battelfield.....or Battleship. my god.....was like this movie.....action never stopped long enough to make a coffee....and it was very boring....i looked at here a few times to see how she was going...she was soaking it all up...mind you she was an accountant with a high degree from uni....yet the brain could go to mush from friday evening...

 

Gemini Man, Netflix, new to Aussie only been out a few days and already one of the highly watched shows on Netflix in Au, says a lot about the tastes of humans....but i cant talk hey? at least i gave it 3/10 and say i was hooked.....do your self a favour and give it a big miss.....

 

Demons in Adelaide playing Port....well Simple had a good opportunity to shake the tree this week and didnt....will be his undoing as the board look over a possible contract extension... Bennie is in with glee coming from Oz and myself, but he could have done so much more, its time to give a few more a bit of a kick around the park since were 6 or so games out from the finals....a few loafers in the forward line and not to mention a couple of slackers in the midfield....i would have like to see Jones back in the side men....anyway Demons not lost 2 in a row this year and im expecting them to keep it going, a tight close contest is expected as a few of the slackers should be stepping up tonight in our very awkward style of play that we do...Demons are good value for money as they just move to play it close and down to the wire men....

 

Bombers should be too good for the Crows who have fallen off a cliff.....give Stringer the flick i say, only plays well the year his contract is up, the Dogs got tired of him.....good fit for one of the WA clubs that has a bird as its logo...

 

Oh dear.....Hawks play Freo.....flip a coin that will do....

 

Mince meat on order....Blues play the Cats....yeah yeah played overs last week but not this week....bye bye Teague.....

 

Lions should be to slick for the "will they turn up this week" Saints...Ratten should be looking at the vacant job at the MCG or Vic Park men...even go back to being an assistant....is going to take the fall for there more than average recruiting under the last coach...

 

Gaints have arrived.....should be too good for the Suns....well can they do it two weeks in a row thats the question on everybody's lips....i couldnt give a stuff ......yes really....Dew coaching for is pudgie life, could end up at the MCG next year, like Paul did want him over Simon....to take over....and we would could get him cheap too.....sack payout cheap as well....fingers crossed....

 

Doggies over the Swans in the other match of the round....might be just a bit to good i think...

 

Tigers and Pies....can they really fall off the face-off the earth again this week? loose to the Pies Hardwick and GF might have to vacate there offices at Punt road...im telling you its the smog getting in...thats why the Demons moved there office to the other side of the park....For you West Aussies and other non Vic aliens Punt rd use to be a normal main road running up the guts of Melbourne connecting the northern subs to the beach areas, the Richmond ground is right on it and the MCG about 300 meters further in, over the years its been widen freeway status and like half the cars in Melb run up it every day...

 

in the ha ha ha ha game of the round.....Weagles play North.....the embarrassment of loosing to Noble and co would be too much, and could find them selves stranded for ever in the big Vic....The Saints (rock band) Im Stranded.....a head banging classic men...and so it will come to pass that loose and the Eagles will wander around the Malley for 40 years....untill a new Moses is born to lead them out of the Vic desert.....its up around Mildura for you heathens that know nothing of the state of Victoria.

I'm watching mine (watchafl) through a set top box.

If I get a glitch, I just reboot the box, and then log out and back in.

 

Have you tried that?

I watched on crichd,bt sport1.

Wasn't best quality but the others were cutting in and out.

If it is a seven broadcast game i have had problems with the fox feeds vpn message last 2 weeks.

Good to see you and Alex having belief in your side and they did look better with Brown in.

I thought he was gone when he got opened up early in the piece but fought on well.

Vipbox  There are some redirects when trying to get the game and some times they can be a bit late at the start. I also use adblock

I would think one independent company does the telecast of the game under contract to most likely Fox who sell off the game to 7 etc, i have noticed the quality of events shoot to the south pole a few times, anyway i watch through Kayo/Fox and Safari browser and from time to time it locks up goes slow all sorts of things but often corrects it self in time but not last night, so switched to chrome and it was fine, interesting that, half time i switched to Apple TV and watched on the 65inch telly....all good there too....so it might have something to do with the browser your using Oz.

 

And yes Fj i was joking a few seasons ago as Brown was coming up for contract renewal he would look good in a Demon jumper and so it came to pass....made a very big difference last night, Port underhanded in defence and poor Ali was all over the shop didnt know who he was on...

 

Of course a few others picked up there game around the middle as well, Port not beaten a top club this year or maybe 1, Demons not lost 2 in a row or lost to a club in the 8 this year, anyway tall is the way to go as Jackson and Macdonald are more than capable on the ground as well as in the air, and Ben is quick for a 10 foot tall lumbering forward....the puzzle is complete..........fingers crossed no serious injuries.....

 

Ps under Hafey the Tigers were a very tall team that won 4 flags not saying this MCG mob will do the same...just saying its been done before.....

Good win for the Saints. No one tipped them so no change to the ladder.

Didn't even consider them thought they would get smashed.  A few players starting to trickle back makes a difference.  Remaining games are all teams in the top 8.
