Sounds like a few Freo fans there surprisingly. 

There'll be a few who live in Sydney and get to go to 1-2 games per year.

It can be a bit hit and miss, but I really like the way GWS play under Kingsley. But is it GWS are better than I thought, or Freo worse? Freo's worst is weak at the contest, poor decision making and sub par skills. 

Their next game is against us - hope they’re not fired up when we meet them in Alice Springs in a fortnight.

Their disposal is just a bit sloppy

It's going to be hard to get rid of the dangerous tackle. I thought the Giants player held the guys upper body down to the ground but there was still a sling motion and his head bounced. It's tough.

And they are being slaughtered in centre clearances.

It was like 88% to 12% time in fwd half GWS way.

Lachie Whitfield’s dangerous tackle will be looked at I reckon.

I reckon there's about 8,000 at the Giants game. Not too shabby for a plastic team playing an interstate opponent in a graveyard time slot in the @rse end of nowhere. 

Ah. They just said in the commentary that thousands of kids got in free (no doubt accompanied by their parents). Who knows, maybe if they started paying people to come they they could push through the 10,000 barrier.

My 11yo daughter, whose passion for the game is limited to how good their songs are, is with me barracking for GWS (the best song excluding 'Red and the Blue') to avoid hearing Freo's song (something worse than being forced to eat all her vegetables).

I always play the songs loud at the end of games.

Dermie saying Tom Greene has the best sleight of hand of any current player has obviously been shunted to watch too many matches at crappy venues and hasn’t seen Clarry play.

Only negative for GWS is Cadman has done bugger all.

I would be happy to give Freo their picks back if we can have Andrew Brayshaw, he is carrying them today.

One more goal and the Giants will over take the Dockers on the ladder. 

Would you believe 2 more goals?

    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.
