Sample of the diss-course on the Blues Game Thread :
"These umpires should deduct 40 points off of the Swans - that's how many they've given them." YtoojaeI was wrong about Gerard and his hair.

Yes it is the first game of the year but I hope the horrible, horrible passing by Jack, Bird and McGlynn is not a sign of things to come. Short passing to little blokes being marked instead of to the top of the square or even having a shot is simply breathtakingly stupid.
We had a really good 20 minutes marred by 2 late goals due to that rubbish.Comment

Loved it. ....horrible foot ball at times but a few excellent glimpses that the game plan is being understood.
Looved the defensive forward line pressure with The speedsters up there.
Our defence was quite sound...
Kirk gave McLean a bath
Bird's sidesteps straightening us up into the middle.
Bevan was good at his job..putting pressure on and crumbing.
Currie got better as the game went on.
Rohan has that Darrel Baldock ability to have turned whilst coming down from a marking attempt and is ready for the nextplay while the others are still landing.
McVeigh's handball on the camera side wing to ?? was unbelievable.
Tadhg did a few useful things.
McGlynn was everywhere.
Bad thing...Bolton's injury."The Dog days are over, The Dog days are gone" Florence and the MachineComment

A scrappy performance but good to win nonetheless. At least it means another TV game next week.
Jetta and Rohan the clear highlights for me. No reason why both won't play in round 1. Amazing what difference some genuine speed gives the team and both seem to have very good skills. Put some of their more experienced teammates to shame in that regard.
Tadhg doesn't look like he's missed a beat and Malceski's form looked good.
TDL needs other forwards around him to be effective so the addition of Bradshaw and White can't come soon enough. Goodes struggled a bit as a forward target probably for the same reason.
Turnovers and dodgy skills were very frustrating but I am happy to put it down to rustiness. Still with the new guys showing so much, some of the older hands have some work to do.
Currie did some nice things at the end but either didn't get much game time or was generally quiet. Really want him to have a big year because it will be great for our balance."As everyone knows our style of football is defensive and unattractive, and as such I have completely forgotten how to mark or kick over the years" - Brett Kirk

Jetta was awesome, pace, skills, etc were all very good and looks certain to start Rd 1.
Rohan was also very good, clearly has the making of a good footballer, needs a few games under his belt till he makes it into our team.
TDL didn't do much but tried hard
Malceski looked like the Malceski of old. Skills were fantastic and gave plenty of run. Him, Mattner and of course Tadgh were great.
Bird showed he def deserves to be in the team. Liked to step alot, and looks abit more agile. Jack was also good.
Richards and Grundy were solid in defence. Didnt make to many mistakes which was a real positive.
Mcglynn was among the bests, and Kennedy showed alot.
Its difficult because considering we still have Meredith, Veszpremi, Hannebery also pushing for a spot, some of the young guys who desreve a game prob wont get one.
Hoping the skills pick up in the next game!Comment
