Loved old Jack Dyer "I heard Les Bamblett had a great debut last week, but I think he had an even better one today"....and cant forget Harry Beitzel and Tommy Lahiff...."Are you there Tommy...Tommy you there?.....I'm here Harry, can you hear me Harry?.... I can hear you Tommy....." Gold.

Another round of close interesting games CS by 13 over PC at PC PCC by 14 over Spotty YSE by 9 over Altona at Sugar Gum Parkside by 11 over Hoppers Might go and have a look at the two Point Cook games to see if my prediction of CS making the GF is on course.

Can't argue with your tips, think North will get a bit closer to Newport, Heights a bit closer to West, Lavo a bit closer to Sunshine and the Rams a bit closer to Albanvale but agree all others. A good D2 last year now lopsided not helped with a poor draw by the League which has seen the 3...

Maybe ingrained from a historical perspective but I've always seen Port at Port as difficult. Plus playing two lowly AFL teams at home the last 2 weeks have needed late goals to win. Willy not at their best lately.

Always was all icing and no cake. Won WRFL flags with a lot of money, but embarrassing themselves now. Never, ever built a strong club with strong foundations. Crashed back to earth.

Hard watch tonight, dominated possession and territory, but game not decided until only 8 minutes left. Plus side is we can be very good, but can be inconsistent from game to game, quarter to quarter, even goal to goal. Loving Darcy's development, Freijah promising so some kids coming through...

Could only watch 1st half at Willy who dominated the first quarter with excellent skills and ball movement. Blues more competitive in the 2nd, goals traded but Willy 4 goals up at HT when I left. Bit shocked to see final score, heard big Tom Downie kicked a goal after the siren to win it...

I noted 2 weeks ago they overused the ball and inevitably, the skill error came. They tried switching the ball from flank to flank across half back, over complicating things. Just got the feeling Varcoe thinks he's coaching a highly skilled AFL team.

As the Dogs found out over many years of playing in Darwin, it's not just the Darwin game, but also how you recover for the next week. We'd consistently lose the week after winning up there. Suns have worked it out, play 2 weeks in a row and stay up there, big advantage in week 2.

How are people viewing Werribee Districts this year? Still undefeated and flag favourites after 5 games, but it's not as clear cut as that. Have twice trailed twice at 3qt - PCC and Parkside, before winning narrowly. In addition, they trailed at home v Altona at HT yesterday, although winning...

Spent the day yesterday at North Sunshine v Laverton, there is some good people at North, doing their best. Told their numbers this year are much better, even at training. They always fill 2 sides, incredibly. Their obvious issue is quality, they're obviously battling. Heard how a few people...

Heard a heck of a lot of clubs unhappy with the current D2. Who would be happy? Even Sunshine and Albion would want the finals next week.

Friend went to AAMI for the first time on Anzac day to see the Storm, paid $40 for a seat in the corner, with poor view of the opposite corner, and vowed never again. And people complain about the cost of AFL. I paid $65 for an old wooden seat at at a 2nd tier EFL game back in 2009. AFL is the...

Thinking Altona will go 1-3 after getting beaten at Werribee Districts today by 35. Altona will struggle to make the 5, lots of skill errors last week, overused the ball and very indirect. YSE by 18 over Parkside PCC by 25 over Hoppers PC by 7 over Spotty

No disrespect to the Ammos - very good standard at the top, good competition, but for Willy VFL it would be a huge cultural shock to go from a semi professional environment with half a dozen full time employees, regularly playing against fully professional, full time footballers to move to an...
