Now I'm more worried about Max's calf. On one hand I didn't want him to miss today,  but gee if he does anymore damage to it it could be costly 

his calf is fine....

This is the problem with having no real options beyond him. 
He never should have travelled to Perth last week and these are the games where if we had a decent backup he could sit out to avoid doing any serious damage. 
Calves can be problematic, especially at his age. If he does more damage to it today and has to miss a chunk of games, you could probably kiss our season goodbye.

Maybe in horse racing with multiple starters but there’s no way this is a correct stat for head-to-head competitions.

Anyway, I'm out before the inevitable gameday thread wrist-slashing and self-flaggelation begins ...

Real disappointed for Taj who has shown plenty and still is not getting a full game, while Hunter has had a less than great pre season and season thus far, and is straight in off very limited good form.

Train in now. 50-50 split

Goodwin will Goodwin, baffling stuff really. What's worse is that if anything at least Taj plays with effort, pride and love for the club. His second efforts are second to none.

Taj is sub again. Just like Bedford and Jordon.  Goodwin is so boring!!! Taj played well v blues and v eagles.  
 

Freo might just give him a call and offer him a deal with a starting position.

Love child syndrome, that's the only explanation.

Pro tip: Don't read the news. Saved myself some cardiac issues this morning 

[DeelightfulPlay 2,673]

Fullarton is sick btw and so not playing at Casey, probably why he was taken off the emergency list

This is what happens when we don't have any real 2nd ruck on our list, or at least we don't use them.

Meanwhile Sydneare flying….😡

Absolutely baffles me it really does.

Hey who was the guy wearing number 23 who ran on with the boys? Didnt look like an AFL footballer and sure enough a kick for goal and then off.

I just rewound to check the person and that's defs McAdam.  See what Earl Hood is saying though, his look always reminds me of a grunge rocker haha

Yeah maybe it was. I need to go to spec savers 😜! 

[layzie 34,336]

Tough group today. Anyway, *insert token staying away from wrist slashers on gameday thread comment* 

[leave it to deever 17,591]

We definitely need an emphatic win today.

Come out breathing fire and fury.

[dees189227 12,453]

I hate looking at our backline & seeing no lever

[layzie 34,336]

Welcome wrist slashers!

[layzie 34,336]

Everyone loose

[At the break of Gawn 4,460]

Great example of Petty burning our chance to score on turnover 

[BDA 23,016]

Kossie disposal not great
