Do we see Trac coming off soon and letting Smith have a run forward.  

Nope. If anyone it needs to be a small forward. Again we’re struggling with all bar Kozzie wanting to be at fall of the ball.

Lacking another tall target up forward, bring Smith on as another option. If Brown continues as he is, I’d have him ‘strain a toenail’. That’s subbable

Lever walked off ok into the race yeh?  He appeared to trip on a blade of grass coming in to stand the mark there and tweaked an ankle?

This game should be over but more worrying is the lack of any finals flair

We literally are limping towards the finish line

One my favourite facets of what makes some boxers great is heart. Taking punches and continuing to fight like all hell no matter the odds and just willing yourself to keep going.

We’re going to need all the heart we can muster to beat Geelong/Sydney/Collingwood to get there.

Doggies did it in 2016, no reason we can’t.

That is just really bad to give that last goal away. 

Even worse when it's centre bounce and we would've known how long was left

Is it just me or is this a pretty average game?

We have a handy lead should be more but I am certainly not feeling like it’s over.

Nick Riewoldt when asked how did you play as a forward, answer all I tried to do was keep on the run even when if the ball was further downfield and keep leading, run my opponent around all day, hey might be worth a try saves just bombing it in again.

Worried about this 2nd half.

We have so many banged up bodies out there it's not funny.

We have been absolutely deplorable when it comes to goals in the last minutes of quarters. I reckon we'd be a lot more stable if we could do that from happening. Two outta two tonight.

It’s not good at all. Very bland and far from the usual intensity of a final

Brayshaw doing a good job on Neale.  9 disposals and not a heap of influence.

Would love to be further ahead.  Looking sore again, but time to dig deep and get the job done this quarter.

Trac looks v v sore not sure he should be out there 

There's about six out there that are going to be dubious by the last. Should be aN interesting finish if we don't bury them in the third

Trust issues but happy to be up and keep a high scoring team to 3 goals for a half. Just need to get a quick start to the 3rd and bury this mob.

I saw him do that same thing at training about 6 weeks ago. It took him 10 minutes to recover. Got no idea what that is about except he has an ankle with a mind of its own sometimes.

This is definitely not a great quality game. Miles away from the great contest against the Swans. 
Hopefully different result.

Put Harmes on Zorko for the first 10 mins or so....appeared to be their main play maker that quarter.

Is Gus still on Neale?

Fritta needs to stay with Andrews on the transition.  Giving him too much room IMV.

Reckon we get overrun from here. Just too many injuries to key players, and no forward presence out of Kozzie to drag us over the line

With so many of our players limping, roll the dice to see who smith replaces,  early In the third I think. Go Dees

    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.
