That made me laugh a lot more than was probably intended.

I disagree with this. Selwood is over the hill. Why not recruit kids who have the same attitude as Selwood. One of the reasons we have been so poor has been recruiting blokes who are passed it Martyn Mansfield McLean Thomas Dare I say Eddie Betts |

In fairness I did say I’d take Shaw for a year as a player if it meant getting him as a coach No probs Rex...............Shaw has got a gob the size of a quarry.Very lippy .I would take that.Anything to get 'em going'..........i think we have the makings of a decent side.Big problem i reckon is the players themselves don't believe it.Its like they have no faith in themselves.Dont see any extroverts in the side.That not there fault but sometimes a gee up from a teammate does wonders.You know,the bloke thats continually talking it up no matter what.Thats the thing with Shaw,no matter how dire things are he never shuts up and refuses to cower..........he annoys the shit out of me actually but i admire his never say die attitude. |

That's the effort we want each week Young team. We’re not gonna go from bottom 4 to top 4 straight away. From where we were 12 months ago when Bolton got sacked we have come a long long long way. We’ve been competitive in every game. We’ve only lost games due to giving up 5-6 goal starts and even then we’ve come back to have a chance in all of them. We’re still a young team and we’re learning consistency. Wins like this will help a lot with confidence Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

Just think about this . We have 11 games to play this year. 3 against teams above us 8 against teams below us. I bet you didn't think that was going to be the case Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk |

The losses to Tigers Dees and Saints were caused by a bad First Qtr The Dees loss burns. The must believe now, if they didn't before Anything can happen. |

Apart from Port being excellent, Adelaide being LOLtastic and Essendon* engaging in medical malpractice, there have been very few constants this season. Ladder placings will be meaningless until about R12. |

Good summation from Titus O’Reilly in his preview for this round. https://www.titusoreily.com/afl/a-highl ... und-seven2 Carlton “I’ve been hurt too many times to just forget everything and go back to loving them unconditionally. I mean, I want to love them, but we have trust issues and while I’m keen to work through them, and there’s been some promising signs, I just can’t let myself get hurt again. Don’t get me wrong, I think all the time about those great times back in the 80s and 90s. We were so happy, and I want that again, but I worry just too much has happened and we’ll never get back there.” |
