Go coach the Saints Rob.....at least that would be bearable.

Cox as the sub. That’s a terrible choice.   Tanking???

Going to the Qlash today. Should have been watching our boys at Metricon but anyway.

Feel your pain. We can't go to the G either obviously. Covid is a biatch

Should be a good game in Metricon today though. You can provide a scouting report on the Suns. They've been playing well and will be difficult opponents for us next week

Watching other top 4 teams put away bottom sides vs us struggling go figure

28 points is hardly putting a team away.

We beat the Dogs by 28.

If the news report is correct that Pendlebury has a broken leg that could be the end of a great career.

Amazingly consistent contributor. I suspect he would make a good line coach if he decides to go that way.

why do people assume a good player will make a good coach?

how do you teach someone how to move thru traffic like pendles?

Start of rd I led the work tipping by 4.

I took Pies over Carlton. My best mate said Blues would win and that Pies are tanking. I asked why, you’ve already got Daicos and you just beat the Tigers. His answer was to use less points. I honestly believe they had the better team going into last week yet seemingly went home at 3/4 time.

Took Lions over Tigers, must of been only person not aware it was Reiwoldt’s 300th game. Still after being burnt by tigers four weeks running I jumped off, also thought Lions would have point to prove.

Headed into this week with a 2 point lead.

We have to have our tips in 2 days before first game, so I took Carlton, then McKay pulls out yesterday. I was seriously considering taking North before this but with things so close went back to the North/Hawks/Pies will tank from here on in theory….

Took it each way in a few multis, very interested to see how this plays out.

Just saw 2 players run within a couple of metres of the player with the mark and then a player swung 360 with the ball and then hold it, while he booked an uber and guess what, play on, nothing to see here. I think back to Gawn’s 50 penalty last week, which cost a goal, when he was about 30 metres from the player with the mark and was following his man and the Tracc holding the ball, after a 1 second tackle on him.

I have loved the consistency of umpiring this season.

hopefully Suns can do us a favor here and knock over the Lions

 

north are playing good footy since the bye

Daniher lol

Misses a simple 15 meter set-shot and in the next play goals with the overhead kick. Classic Daniher

Umpiring up to 2021 standard I see

It's a long way better than a loss to bottom six sides or a draw against Hawthorn who  have not been able to beat time with a stick. 

Carlton are still coming…

Huge round for us.

If we lose and Brisbane and Sydney both win, we'll be 1.5 games safe inside the 8 with 4 to come. Puts our top 4 spot in the most jeopardy it's been for the entire season.

But of course, if we win and Brisbane and Sydney both lose, we'll be 3.5 games safe inside the 8 with 4 to come, which means we'd only have to win one more game for the rest of the season to lock in the top 4.

Still not convinced Carlton have a good list, on this showing they need a lot. And Davies-Uniacke is becoming a serious player.

Are they tanking to get a bottom pick for Cerra?  Petrevski Seton wanted by Dockers and together with a high pick and something else, might get a deal done.

PS: I know players don’t tank.

Edited July 24, 20213 yr by Redleg

There's no way they're tanking.

For one, they're not going to slide lower than one more spot on the ladder. So it's a one pick benefit.

For another, they were still, going into this week, very much in the finals race. If the favourites win this weekend Carlton would, with a win, end up one game out of the 8.

No one does brain fades like Joe daniher

It’s possible. But I doubt it. The Coach is under the sword so i would expect the players to be going hard. 
They are just a very average list that is paid way too much

Just a matter of when rather than if. Can't totally blame him in a way, that panel he has looks like a very very weak one, but he's the boss so he pays the cost.
