Is this the first time McCartin and Petracca have played against each other? From the same draft year Lever and OMc should find themselves on Paddy during the match

PS. Just found this 2014 HS article saying St Kilda would take Petracca. Thank god they didn’t

I don’t get much juicy afl gossip, but I can say for an absolute fact that GWS we’re not trading picks 4 and 7 so they could get Petracca with pick 1.  They were after someone else.

And we are playing a poor team. The Weid is playing in a forward line where he is clearly the third best tall so should get the third best defender. If cannot play a reasonable game this weekend then he never will IMO. It is put up or shut up time.

A bit strange OD. You'd write him off if he doesn't have a blinder this weekend?

He has shown a bit this year. A few of his contested marks have been fantastic. Not sure if he is ever going to be the 6 goal a game fwd though.....way too early to be writing him off.

So you would call time on a 20 year old key forward based on this game ?

You and those who have liked your post have no clue.

Anyone know if Hogs and Tracc passed fitness tests yesterday?

Acidic yet adolescent comment.

Not reading the whole topic?

They trained fully yesterday without an issue

Trac marked and handballed

Hoges moved freely with no strapping anywhere

Will be interested to see the level of strapping Trac has on the finger and how it affects his disposal.

At Etihad against the Saints. They’re not as bad as people think. Demons, but it will be tough

I said a reasonable game jnr. I did not say a blinder.

If Trac plays then cheeezus it is the greatest comeback since Lazarus the leper!

If he plays he will be severely limited! 

Hnmm Lets see Eh!!?

Happy to admit error, but my source was pretty adamant of serious doubt!

Oh well good outcome!

No, listening on the radio occupied me last night, hoping that the Brizzies could knock off the Filth in Brisbane - all about ladder position after the round, this morning. Then another famous SA power failure overnight - that we pay good money for - just for the inconvenience of it all. Now to take the dog to the veterinary clinic - I swear this guy is attempting to make his fortune in just 3 years! However, 'Deemented Are Go', it was a good win but it could have been catastrophic for the Saints with a jiggle of those who played and those who battled (and battled quite well, too). Next week holds some interest ... must study the form of the fit.
