Can one simple assume Dank when rogue when he arrived at Essendon?



I know. I read the second sentence 3 times and have no idea what it means.

I guess if you can find "one simple" then ask him.


I really should proof read my posts.

Try all of us Cat fans were worried at three quarter time. The Gold Coast outplayed Geelong in the first three quarters and should have been in front. When these blokes get a tank (not the Carlton and Melbourne kind) then they'll be a force to be reckoned with. They had four important outs as well in Dixon, Smith, Brennan and Bennell as well.

There is some serious depth in that squad at the moment, they just can't run the games out. And Ablett is still a freak.

They probably missed Dixon the most on Saturday, Lynch was struggling to have an impact.
Bock is finally starting to play again, so they'll probably get him after their break.
A couple of others that debuted looked pretty good, so yeah their depth is building.

Bock in his first game back only played a half and kicked 4 goals.

He was playing super footy at CHF when he broke down. Him and Dixon up forward will be a leathal combination.

Bennell their biggest loss out of that lot along with Dixon. He adds serious class along with Ablett and O'Meara. They will make the 8 next year

I think it will take an extra year CK as teams will start to put more effort into them now that people are starting to wake up.

Chappy does the hammy again. And to think someone said I don't have a clue for suggesting weeks ago a long season would wear him down and he was gone.

I have no doubt teams are putting as much effort into GC as they are Hawthorn. The only thing that will hurt them next year is having Smith coming back from a knee recon. I can't wait to watch them next week, i really like the style they play. Matera is as exciting as any of their kids i reckon. boy can he play

Taken from Matthew Scarletts up coming book
FORMER Geelong champion Matthew Scarlett has slammed Collingwood captain Nick Maxwell, labeling him "overrated" and claiming he wasn't respected by any of the Cats' players.

Scarlett opened up about an incident involving the Magpie skipper from the 2010 preliminary final between Geelong and Collingwood in his newly released autobiography, entitled Hold The Line.

Maxwell's side led by 10 goals at the final change that night and went on to win by 41 points, apparently ending an era of Geelong dominance.

Scarlett said Maxwell had approached the Geelong huddle at three-quarter time and started sledging its players.

A year later in the 2011 Grand Final, a game the resurgent Cats would win over the Magpies, Cameron Ling booted a late goal to all but secure victory.

Scarlett took the opportunity to hit back, running to Maxwell to return fire from the previous year.

"I reckon I ran almost 100 metres to get in his face and give him a spray," Scarlett wrote.

"I reminded him that I hadn't forgotten what he said and then proceeded to tell him what I thought of him as a player: highly overrated.

"None of our players had any respect for Maxwell. We hated how he was being compared to Tom Harley. It was simply wrong."
