Is it just me or is CH7 panning to Maynard all the time?🤮

I think they're doing subliminal public service messaging:

'Kids, be careful what you ask the barber for; this is what you could look like.'

Probably yeah

The number of times in the last that I saw Pies players throw their arms out at the umpire appealing for a free, as if in a tight game its expected to go their way and they should be allowed to win. Bad bloody luck! Ha!

As much as Darcy looks to be a young star, I also loved the composure of Sanders. He's a great addition to their midfield

[layzie 34,407]

For the excuse mongerers bemoaning Collingwood's injuries just remember the Dogs played most of that 2nd half a man down.

[Timothy Reddan-A'Blew 5,630]

Healthy percentage, the Doggies. Poised for a ladder leap, so keep the joy a bit contained, folks...

[deejammin' 2,376]

It’s up to us now. Beat Freo and the Pies and we go into the bye two games clear in the 8 guaranteed in the top 4. We have rarely taken these chances since 2021, cmon Dees! Two big wins! Set the season up, put Freo and Pies away!

Well he’s not happy to say the least but the excuses are just rolling thick and fast. 
I'm being a tad annoying as I’ve watched the Maynard ‘footy act’ about 50 times. He’s getting a bit sick of me yelling ‘ Karma’ and that Darcy is my hero.

Oh dear jane we’re kindred spirits

I am not sure my +1 knows angus can’t play anymore as a consequence of that hit

she thinks I’ve become very weird about football

Just looking at the Ladder

They were playing Super International Cricket on Super Nintendo and pressing the Y button repeatedly to appeal, hoping something would stick.

Dads: don’t let your daughters near this absolute mung bean

Roaming Brian is an absolute goose, but if your side wins he interviews all your lads who are happy to speak to him and it is a fantastic thing for the winning fans.  As long as it’s ABC

On the other hand my Bulldogs loving partner is very up and about tonight 😍

Garcia for the dogs looks promising. Been noticing him for a few weeks now. He’s able to affect games. 

[Gunna’s 2,104]

Rory Lobb doesn't like chocolate milk.  
Thats enough for me to put a line through any trade

Look the message from this and every season is: if Melbourne can’t win the flag, then ANYONE except Collingwood

How good to see the stands empty 4 minutes before the end of the game 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[Jjrogan 1,466]

Apart from Darcy, who looks like he's 18 playing against under 12s, really like the look of James O'Donnell too.  Kid can seriously play.  They have some spine developing.  

But many big guys do you really need flying for the same ball.   I'd love JUH but here's a first rounder, give us Naughton please.

I swear when Lobb was playing for GWS he was a serious (almost gun) ruckman/forward. I’d watch GWS play and he would be pretty consistently prominent.
 

Was that incorrect? Or has he dropped off massively since going to Freo then Dogs?

The Dogs are a confidence team. i reckon they’ll lose 3 of their next 5 looking at the fixture. Not a premiership threat imo

dropped off massively. For a guy that is 205cm somehow allows smaller guys to out position him and he's a below average read in flight.   He was good tonight tho for someone who half the time looks like he doesn't care.

Yep second only behind the Swans

The Dogs have finally cracked it for 50 wins vs the Filth.

Only took them 100 seasons of footy to get there
