I know he's only a vfl listed player, wish he wasnt at the moment

You and me both.

Just frustrates me that, on the face of it, our VFL listed forwards are better than our senior forwards (Cloke notwithstanding)...

Remind me again why Pendles isn't listed ? Buts his arse every week and is surely a better depth player than some of our clowns.

It has been a tale of two brothers this weekend, hasn't it? One, who is a superstar, has a shocker and the other, who is solid but not elite, puts in a blinder.

But yeah, Krita would be handy right now...

I really don't get how they leave Shae Mac on the list when Pendles cannot get rookied.

Shae 204cm, Krita 190. Simple as that. If Krita was 194 he would have been picked up years ago, Not big enough for KP at AFL level, not quick enough or skilled enough to survive as a utility.

Can we be the 1st Team to beat Port in over a Season?

Would like to think so, but as long as their seniors stay injury-free and playing like they have been, they won't be beaten by anyone.

Looking at the ladder, if we beat Box Hill next week, we automatically jump into the top 8, possibly as far as 5th on percentage, if Sandy and Coburg both lose badly. Sandy at Victoria Park is also very winnable, which means we could go into the game against Port with 4-2 on the board...

Deserves it, in saying that they are likely to drop him this week for Witts.

I have come to the conclusion I may never see Josh play.

The best thing is those first 2 games are TV games and there is a 50/50 chance the Port Melbourne game will be on TV too.

Especially the Box Hill game as it clashes with AFL game.
