The McDonalds seem to get better with age.

Maybe we need an I Was Wrong thread?

I've certainly been off the mark with TMac. After that GWS game last year I thought he was done...

I'mnot watching the game, but I see that OMac has 2 goals, 7 score involvements and 3 goal assists playing as a 196cm ruckman...

Almost 50 frees played with five minutes still on the clock.

it's an incredible comeback from being ditched by first mfc then cfc

it will be interesting to see how they combine darcy, jackson, treacy, amiss, and o mac going forward

Would love a key forward like Treacy at the Dees. It think the Dees should have pushed harder to get him in the Jackson trade.

We need to start collecting the elite golfers again

Omac

Hunt

Interesting; Freo up by 40 odd, then gave up late goals in the last quarter to win by 18.

Very similar to last night.

Had a serious back injury while at Carlton, and they obviously thought he was cooked. Worked very hard in the VFL to give himself another chance, which was almost lost through last year's knee injury.

Asking genuinely, was Ben McKay really good at Kangas? I never really watched any of their games.

i watch the roos every week. he was horrendous.

Must have taken OMac off for the last 15 minutes.

Freo have a lot of journeymen playing for them. OMac, Narkle, O’Meara, Aish and Wagner are all at their third club.

Why did we let Oscar go? He'd be really handy right now. Sack Goodwin!

Am I doing it right?

It’s interesting to me that McKay was talked about as a gun full back whilst at the Roos, then I watched him play at Essendon and I thought he must’ve had a huge drop off in form

Interesting. I thought he was tracking really well as a young KPD. Until Robbie Tarrant left for Richmond and left him to lead the backline. McKay seemed to stagnate, if not regress from that point .

But I've not watched them as much as you

Todays games are interesting. Looking forward to the gws digs game. They're always interesting.

See how much port beat nth by.

Anyone else think the scoring pattern at the Coll/Ess game was unusual, or everyone except C just got tired.

Saints returning to lower mid table form by the looks of things.

Early days but the top 9 are pulling away from the rest

was bound to happen cant believe the punters tipped them to be in the 8 after the first couple of weeks clueless, saints will never change

The Saints always wear such Crappy “Away” Strips, even when they are playing at home

What a Dogs Breakfast

It feels like they've worn a different guernsey in every game so far this year. The Belgian flag one is still to make an appearance though.

Saints prove they are rubbish earlier than usual

Lions should be flag favourites and then daylight. Their squad is so deep. they are just in cruise mode

Just a final reflection on Ben McKay @Go the Biff and @BoBo, - he is not inside the top 150 players in the comp. Yet North got pick three as compensation for him. Get your head around that 🥇. Everyone gets a participation medal.

Too early to call mate

This time last season the premiers and a top 6 team were 13th and 17th!

(and we were 4th 😬)

Hahaha, wow, picks 1 to 4 for us then for Kozzie if that’s the standard.

I looked up his contract and it’s averaged to $800k over 6 years. So it’s not the craziest amount. Still $100k too much for his output and that’s being generous.

Port have had 2 great wins so in true Ken fashion I reckon they’ll put in a shocker today

Port by 12pts
