Watching Soldo 2 weeks ago and I said to a mate "He is s dirty player, watch him put bhis knees into blokes. " Toot toot goes the karma tuk tuk.

I fell asleep and missed the North game. Spmetimes you can be lucky.

3/4 time. Port lead Essendon 55 to 21. 17 scoring shots to 3 since 1/4 time (at which point, you will recall that the Bumblers rather hilariously led).

[Pies4shaw]

James Stewart has been very good for the Bumblers. He's had every bit as much impact as Daniher.

[Donny]

What's the go with Melbourne's jumper ? Blue, with a red something on the front.

Certainly no clash. So, why ?

[Pies4shaw]

I read about this earlier but didn't take much notice, at the time. It's something about a "heritage" jumper for some reason. Sorry to be so vague - I'll see if I can find what I read.

[Pies4shaw]

Here it is, Donny - it's the 90s throwback "Proud to Belong" jumper.

The article says it was/is to be worn in one game this season, though at that time they did not know which.

[Pies4shaw]

Melbourne lead 40 to 22, early-ish in the 2nd quarter.

[ronrat]

Scores level ar half time, in no small way to some benevolent scumpiring for the GWS.

On a side note. Petracca is busting an arse and taking and handing out hits and who ids 10 metres away ball watching, Viney, Soft as butter,
