Hardly seems fair that Harley Reid should be punished.

Just saying on Fox that the Hawks are going to lose their first draft pick over the investigation into Clarkson. Something about bringing the game into disrepute . I take it I heard that right, was not really paying attention.

Percentage boost for the Hawks

West Coast are putrid. Melbourne 2012-2014 level putrid.

West Coast must really rate Harley Reid!!

Can't imagine this being the case but would certainly add another layer to the freo death ride.

damian barrett at afl pravda has been saying the same for a while, so presumably that's the word coming down from on high, and they're preparing and 'conditioning' the public to expect it

Dees had a loss, and now Collingwood are on the TV.

I’m predicting a lot of ‘Collingwood will kill us’ posts coming up. 

the filth are the most in-form team in the competition and are - disgustingly - fantastic to watch

BUT

since they last made a grand final in 2018 it is melbourne with 3 finals win and a premiership to the filth 2 finals wins and no grand final

as we saw in 2022, great form in the home and away will count for nothing without making it count in september

You have to find an extra 20% we all know we have that but do the Pies.

Don't mine the Pies Indigenous Jumper. hate the Blues one.

It's a confusing clash on TV 

My early tip is that the paper baggers are going to get the [censored] kicked out of them!

As much as I hate The Pies I'm really enjoying watching Carlton fail.

As a working full time visual artist, with a background in design, most of the indigenous jumpers suffer from way too much going on, and a distinct lack of clarity and purpose.

Just for context - Freo’s jumper was designed in conjunction with Alex Pearce, who is from Tassie. So Fremantle’s jumper literally had a map of Tassie on it. 

I really hope some of the clubs start going for one symbol. There’s heaps of cool First Nations visual language (hello Devil Snake). Be great to see it applied more confidently and with more clarity, and not just filling every literal centimetre of the jumper.

Quick ball movement, use of the corridor, smalls finding themselves at the drop of the ball. 
Are we watching?

Jesus Christ West Coast are an embarrassment 

Hunt must be wondering what black cat he killed in his past life to go from Melbourne to this rubbish.

Agree, some are just to busy which is why I love the Saints one this year.

If West Coast get pick are they better of trading it for 2 top 10 picks and drafting home grown talent again.

Believe we are looking to trade with them.

Well Carlton are horrible.

I reckon there is a good chance they can go undefeated all the way until end of Sept. nobody can seem to match it with them.

And Pies are very good. 

I suggest we all depart Victoria in September. 

Considering Carlton probably needed an 8 goal lead at three quarter time to be a chance today it's not looking good so far. 

Looks like Harley Reid will be spending a season at West Coast before choosing where he wants to play

Just hand Collingwood the flag now. Going to be another grand final massacre for the third year in a row.

The only club that could remotely challenge them on GF day is Brisbane or possibly Geelong if they come home like a freight train.

Going to be a long afternoon for Carlton
