Judd mcvee is a 200 gamer right? Right?? 
 

He is an absolute star and seeing that [censored] stringer getting absolutely towelled up was just so amazing to see. 

Need a contract extension pronto!

Form an orderly queue to make your apologies to Goody here please…

Well If Jeffo fires tommorrow id drop Petty Ruck JVR and Disco and give a REAL forward a chance😆

[dazzledavey36 54,790]

My only negative is that they subbed the wrong player off. How Bowey kept playing when AMW was actually playing well is beyond. 

Bowey is a huge worry for me moving forward alongside Petty and Sparrow.

Judd McVee out marking Lance Whitnall was the highlight for me on too of many others of course.  Kid is a serious talent.

Shame about the last 10 minutes, it ruined what was otherwise a really strong four quarter performance.

Hate seeing JVR spend so much time in the ruck but not sure what else we can do.

Sparrow really needs time at Casey, I'm not sure what he brings to the side at the moment. Seems to be spending time in the forward half but only had 2 tackles and can't hit the scoreboard?

OK I'm in london & just saw the scores. Oh my god I'm so happy.

How did we win this?

How did we go in the ruck?

Maybe we need to trust goody and his plans.

Go dees. What a weekend,  pies lose and so do the bummers

That was bizarre umpiring in the last 5 minutes.

For example the bombers throwing the ball all night and they pluck one out of nowhere against rivers.

 

Yep.. horrible call. It’s decisions like that that really make me think the umpires have been given a direction to help the opposing team make a comeback. 

[binman 42,842]

Caddy was the youngest player tonight.

And apparently we had the next 7 youngest.

The bombers are still in rebuild mode.

The Kids are alright

[Kysaiah the messiah 5]

I’ve seen enough, we’re contenders. ❤️💙

Umpires did everything they could to make a game of it.

Credit to McKay.

They would have been list without him.

A thought experiment.

Imagine taking draper and Merrett out of the bombers team tonight (the equivalent of gawn and tracc).

 

I thought that was the best game I’ve seen McKay play. He really set them up well behind the ball.

Can't believe Windsor is only two years older than me... So much class at just 19. All the youngsters looked amazing today!

I hope all the haters are drafting their apology emails to S Goodwin. 

Dear Straight Set Simon, 

I look forward to only having to lose one final this year.

Though he had the luxury of not playing on JVR, and instead he got a very underwhelming Petty.

Agree, and that likely translates on field as well.
