Gutsy calls by Pyke to drop Eddie and Hinkley to drop Dixon.

Also a gutsy call a few weeks for Teague to drop McGovern for being unfit, not to return until he is.  Big call for a coach wanting to win every game.  Good on him for setting standards early.

Good examples of difficult calls to maintain the integrity of selection decisions and set behavioural standards; Walk-the-Talk.

The ever classy Betts:  “Yes a bit disappointed on being dropped,” Betts said.  “But at the same time super excited that this kid gets another run at AFL level, turn it on little brother.”

I think I want the tigs to beat the pies. 

If there can be some miracle performed so the suns can beat essendon this week that would be great, but it won't happen. 

I reckon Carlton can beat the crows.

Sheesh, lucky the Pies have the Suns next week. What a hammering so far.

Richmond looking unbeatable.

2 very high quality talls and the resting ruck. Following that up with remarkable skill when the ball hits the deck.

Is Buckley the Right Guy?

Yeah, at least for another couple years.

Injuries + loss of confidence = sound familiar?

Collingwood board on Bigfooty is in meltdown atm.

There is a huge disconnect between Grundy and their mids atm. They are quite literally struggling in the same areas we are.

Tigers coming good at the right time of year, will be flag favourites after tonight if they weren’t already 

Yep, and with a game plan that is closest in style to ours of any team.

But hold on, i thought the pies, cats, west coast slow, chip it around, cross to the fat side  and maintain possession model is unbeatable and  where the game is heading and Goody has failed to keep up with premiership winning trend in footy.

I'm confused. Perhaps that's the not the case after all.

Commentator watch:  Mr Ling was able to say ‘lowered the eyes’ three times in about 20 seconds.  A pumpkin that love the sounds that his farty breath makes.  Severn team are ‘boisterous briahhhn, creepy Bruce and special comments from the peanut brigade.

Every time De Geoy goes near the ball he looks for a free kick. Arms flapping and head flying back

Don't think it'll be too long now.

I am very angry that Eddie has been allowed to stay in the Media unscathed, after his King Kong comments, twice...

It really stinks

“They’re a couple of good looking boys, Eddie’s kids” - Bruce going full creepy ped. 

I didn’t year that but a couple of comments later were ...... well, quite creepy.

Sad really.  Gone on far too long.  Was one of my favorites early on.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
