    Which they're now doing! We will be on the bottom after this round. On a positive note, I reckon we might be 5-5 by round ten......if we improve stat!

    I adore my collection of wooden spoons. They're so beautiful.

    Positive point - we lost to GWS by less than West Coast did to Hawthorn. Well yes, I am scrounging for positives here I know.

    And yes, I'm sure that it says somewhere in the bible, that it is truly character building, to flagellate oneself with a wooden spoon.

    I thought one usually got someone else to do the flagellating? Just a minute, I think that's what's happening now!

    Glad none of the wooden spoons are red or white. Positives are mills is back, sam Reid looked good down back, heeney was quite but moved well, showing no effects from GF. But the most positive, we are on the bottom of the ladder and we are 41 dollars to win the flag. Showed a glimpse of what we are capable of in the first five minutes,but we had to ease off to get a good price. Now it starts! Let's put the theory to the test. Anyone game?

    I thought Cunningham tried really hard and secondly had a lot more venom in his tackling and intensity

    Played all over the ground with his run with roles

    Positives - we had a tough fixture to start the season, but from here it is easier.

    Carlton away and Brisbane at home should both be winnable.
    North Melbourne away is next - the only other team without a win but they have lost multiple games by under a goal against strong opposition. This match could go either way.
    St Kilda away and Hawthorn at home are also winnable but these are not gimme games.
    These games are arranged in roughly ascending order of difficulty...

    After the season we should get a single-figure draft pick. We have only "earned" one of those twice this century.

    And the last thing to be positive about - we weren't stupid enough to gamble trading away a future first-round draft pick.

    I finally found a good use for my middle finger.

    I have now become very proficient using the scroll wheel on the mouse looking for where we sit on the ladder.
