Always proud.

Just a little ticked off at the moment, though...

With the way the ball was coming in today, I'm not sure Clokey would have won it off his own boot...

Get a grip. We've finished in the top 2 and come off a large winning streak.
what do you expect?

has been an excellent season and to come back from the early season thrashings has been a strong performance.

looking forward to the boys having a good crack at whomever we play next week. for a change, we're well placed to advance to a prelim on the first attempt.

Now that I've gathered my thoughts, I have to agree (reluctantly) with the coach, if for no other reason than I value my spot in the 22...

Thanks MB ... details in the OP made it easy for me to get there.

Great first quarter, but geez we struggled after that.

Lachie Ferguson is my favourite VFL player with the way he goes about it.

At the 3QT huddle Bucks had quite an in depth chat with Gault about something he was or wasn't doing (I couldn't hear it all). My impression from the body language, FWIW, is that Gault will still be around in 2017.

Casey beat Box Hill to claim the minor premiership.

So, it will be Williamstown, then.

A fresh, rested Williamstown...

He certainly is a wonderful VFL player - that, of course, is precisely why Collingwood traded him out last year, looking for an AFL player to take his place.

He needs to stay fit, work on his tank and get some confidence, but if he gets a run at it I'm happy to hang onto him. I think the kid has some serious ability.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.
