Unfortunately we have no chance tonight -zilch.For us to be competitive ,Murphy,Gibbs and Judd has to star and Jones and Casboult need to kick 8 goals between them.Our backilne is a joke ,who will mind Clarke,Rowe will get Hawkins ,I can see Hawkins kicking 5 and that is before 1/2 time.
It will be a very long night

Was it because he was injured? No.
Was it because he had run himself off his legs? No.
Was it because he was giving us nothing out on the ground? Yes.
Now lets address something else.
No, it was not 50 minutes of game time. You say that enough times and people start to believe you. He actually had 57% TOG (Time on Ground). Now, that is not 57 minutes. That game went for 124 minutes. Doing the maths for you, he played just under 71 minutes. What did he do in his 71 minutes? He got 3 touches. That is basically 1 touch a quarter.
I don't care how little the ball got down to the forward line. There were countless times were all 36 players were in one half of the ground. So there were countless times he was within 1 kick of the ball. How many times did he run and present?
You keep screaming to give him a chance. We gave him a chance. He was THAT bad that it was a wasted spot. A spot we can give to someone who appreciates it.
One got 6 weeks the other got one. If you could do anything on our forward line last week you'd be a genius. Jones did bugger all for weeks yet he's straight back in. With Henderson still out, we don't have alot so why not give Watson another go. He had at least be doing alright with the NB's and did well in his only other go up forward. Jones on the other hand has shown nothing, zip, zero. I'd prefer him to Jones when it gets down to it while Henderson is out.
When it comes down to it we'd have been better keeping Jaksch in and putting him forward. To bring Jones in ahead of him is a joke. Jaksch will have a crack, Jones workrate is poor.

Once again, Jones makes a mockery of this culture argument.

Ha, yeah....but to be fair Hawkins & Clark are not Lockett & Loewe either.
Hawkins is possibly Loewes equivalent.......Clark is just massively overrated.

Hi guys,
Just checked the VFL team & no mention of Humfrey B Bear. This leaves the following options:
1. Did they forget to include him on the team sheets?
2. Is he injured & the club keeping it quiet?
3. Perhaps a late inclusion for the main game?
I have no idea, which of the above is true so make up your own mind.
Below is the VFL team sheets as found on the club web-site
Backs Gowers Watson McGuinness
Half-backs Smith Jaksch Dick
Centreline Viojo-Rainbow Graham Boekhorst
Half-forwards Bransgrove Fields Johnson
Forwards Ellard Foster Walsh
Followers Warnock Holman Whiley
Interchange (from) Wilson Russell Bolger
Dirago Murray Strachan
Wilkinson Aurrichio** Johnston
