I wouldn't even give you tree fiddy for Frawley right now.

[Bill Manspeaker]

geez... I feel for you Melbourne fans. there is a plus out of this though, you go to the draft with picks 2 and 3 (if Frawley goes) and probably pick up Petracca and Wright/Brayshaw. still a very bright future

I guess hindsight is a wonderful thing now, but I'm actually not surprised this has happened.


There is actually a lot of merit to what Paul Roos said about "a team waiting to be beaten." Crazy as it sounds, but I actually think this team fears improvement/winning.

There has been 5-6 matches of when we have been in front in the last quarter and lost.

Will be interesting to see the fallout of this match. Especially what Bernie Vince has to say, seeing as he said "there is no chance the Giants will win their third consecutive match against the Demons this round."

I actually felt a sense of "enough is enough" from the crowd watching it on tv, they were booing every skill error, and giving both Frawley and Dawes bronx cheers.

I am still under a temporary loss of passion after that brisbane game, otherwise I'd be devastated right now.

[Mr.Craig]

Best part of this game has been Chelsea.

[GoLions]

Best part of this game has been Chelsea.

When is she not the best part of a game?

[shaker]

Well done to the Giants but that club song sounds like Vladimir Putin wrote it , not good  ::)
