Beams therefore made the right choice. Full game in the 2s IS better than a game as sub.

Why do you say this was Beam's choice?

[Scotch]

Who IS this Sundberg fellow. Might have to drop down and see him play one of these weeks.

How long has he been in the system and how old is he?

Onya DTM, so right, those geeeeelong fans were so annoying, constantly referring to last night's result

Both teams kept at it to the end, just like last night, but a happier result for us. We're stringing a few wins together now, well deserved.

I'm at most of the VFL matches, nice to see so many of the players improving, and the teamwork coming together.

Looks like Vicky Park's days are numbered, hardly recognisable as the proud fortress that she was

I was sitting in with them With Fire Up and Johnny and Had to put up with the Sly Remarks,

Vic Park is Changing heaps and Becoming a Local Ground.

Fire Up says we will move VFL game to Olympic Park when that is Built

[Damien]

obviously there will be changes after last nights result. MM is a massive McCarthy fan so I'd suggest he is a definate IN for next week.

VFL journalist Howard Leigh just mentioned on Sen that Tom Couch , son of former Geelong player Paul Couch played for Collingwood reserves as a top up player yesterday at Vic Park.

How did he go ?

He is 20.

Big fan of Sunny!! Always in the bests.

Good little artilce on him in the VFL record today!!

My take from the VFL Forum:

This was after out last game:

I've never been so pumped after a VFL win.

And this was me at 3/4 time and during the 4th quarter:

I've never been so dissapointed at the VFL.

But I am happy with the win. I just felt like we let a great opportunity to win by a big margin go after quarter time. We kicked 6 goals to none in the first quarter, only to see Geelong kick 4 or 5 unanswered goals before half time.

The Sherrin stand end was deffinatly not the scoring end today. I think we only kicked three down that end all day??

We were very lucky to get away with one today and I feel like we were outplayed for most of the day. But I supose you could pay alot of that to the conditions. But still. Had a few troubles myself with the USA flag in the wind!!

I was dissapointed with the crowd too, as it felt like we were outnumbered by Cats supporters. Didnt feel like Vic Park.

I'll take the win and hope for an upset next week against the gulls!

Side note: The security guard copped an absolute grill from his boss when he didnt get the ball back to the ump during the third.

DTM, Keefe didnt have his best day, but I thought he did a few impressive things. Shae was great against the Roosters, I just dont know if he likes the wet conditions. He was ok, but I'm hoping for a better game next week.

Caff still struggling?

I'd like to seem him back, or McCarthy playing his role. John is not as good a contested mark as Caff, but does have excellent hands, is quicker, a very tough player and can rotate through the middle. I'd like us to have another leadup option when Cloke and Dawes are being blanketed.

Must be time to give Dick a few full games in the VFL. Playing him for a quarter or two, after he's missed so much time, is madness. McCarthy needs some game time soon. His VFL form, as usual, has been good and our fringe players need senior footy.

^Macaffer didn't play.

Been training in the rehab group apparently.

Bugger.

Still it's only the middle of May so plenty of time to get him right for finals.

i dont think sunberg is #20. all the afl listed players wear the same numbers if they play in vfl.

i think sunberg was waering a higher number like 50+. dtm will know he has a record with all the players numbers. dtm where are you?

20 is his age! Been playing with the vfl side for 3 or 4 years. Started as a top up player. I'd compare him to a Brad Sewell in close but covers the ground like Swan. Seems to be a quiet guy out on field, no fuss, like Swanny. One of my favorite Pies.

[fence-banger]

Whose that ranga head we have in the VFL side, he keeps bobbing-up on the forward line, little nuggety sort of player ... I like the way he goes about his footy, I think I'll adopt him as another fave

[Fire Up]

^^ #25 is tom young? or was it the other ranga #49 paul cribbin. cribbin is the irish guy we have
