I hate the Cats with a passion but I don't understand these type of comments. Do you not think they are entitled to a home ground? In finals they don't even get to play at home even when they've earnt it due to the AFL wanting money, which I think is unfair

Some bizarre points from Jake - firstly that Dusty is getting paid way more than Hawkins. Hawk is 35 and no-one thought he would even be playing at this age let alone playing very well. Dusty is coming off 3 norms. Couldn't think of a worst comparison. The other two examples are Selwood who may retire this year or next and Danger who is 32. Of course you get paid less when you get older, it is not some sort of team ethos. Danger and the like raked in the coin in their prime. The fact is the Cats have very few gun players in their prime so salary cap is easy to manage. J Cameron is the only one I can think of right now. No insights for me aside from high draft picks having large contracts on potential (why we should feel OK about LJ leaving). I thinks the Cats are where they are due to a quality culture, very good coaching, quality drafting at late picks. However they have not won the flag as they lack top end young talent (high draft picks) If your goal is to do well in the H&A, then they have been successful. However 10 years on top with only 1 losing GF to show for it is failure to me.

once it's 2nd cousin or higher - play on

McStay can take a mark unlike the Weid. Far better player imo

heard the same, a groin issue so Adams very likely to miss which is huge. the Pies don't bat deep for inside/clearance mids Ralphy reckons Howe will play though

Carlton, Lions and Freo lose and we win convincingly and regain our team defence nice weekend! Bring on Friday to crush the filth!!

Agreed. Zorko is the worst captain in the league and yes I am including Heppell in that. He is a hot head and thinks of himself. Argues with the umps and has personal grudge matches a lot. the Sooner McCluggage is made captain the better for them

Massive choke from the Lions. They lost it more than the Tigers win it. Lions won contested footy, clearances, inside 50s etc. just what the bed when the pressure came

Serious question- have we been 42pts down and lost this year? I don’t think so but wondering if you or anyone knows

Twas a game of two halves the first half… and the second

Meanwhile the bombers 😂😂 go Norf

I hope Lynch enjoys being bottom 6 for the rest of his career.

Not sure if it’s already been mentioned but was interesting hearing Ginnivan speak openly after the game. The constant media on him has been way over the top. He admits it’s taking its toll on his mental health. on one hand, it’s great that we are getting to a place where young men are happy to talk about this stuff. On the other hand, it’s sad he has to cop all this stuff. Sure he has played for frees which is not good, but he is young and he will learn to stop

Has clicked over 100 goals in ‘21 and this year combined. Very intelligent player and brave too

Dream job? Reece Conca’s job just run out to players and say well done and give them a hug.

Still watching the replay BT just talking about grippo for 2 minutes during play. He found it hilarious CALL THE PLAY FFS!!

I hear ya but I don’t see Collingwood as any sort of threat. If I did I agree with you if we lose to the Pies in a final well, we just aren’t a good side at all

Watching the replay… Rivers is getting back to his best. Looks confident, taking players on, taking marks. Great to see

How was dins mate? What you go for, play it safe with the Parma?

I hear ya but losing it off one kick I dunno. That would hurt so much worse than a smashing

Losing to these Cats in a GF is a thought I cannot handle, let alone the reality A good mate of mine, who is a Pies fan, said he hasn’t gone to footy since 2018 as he couldn’t deal with that loss. It hurt him that bad, he goes on about Buckley playing Aish and him fkking up etc. it worries me. Oiled up Danger and Joel lifting the cup having beaten us. I dunno, it might break me

East to forget last year before finals. Cats 16 wins % 126. Won 10/11 at one points. then [censored] the bed. I agree they are more dangerous. But I doubt they can hack finals intense inside footy week on week

Well after the disappointment of the dogs, the Crowd have cheered me up! The Blues look cooked

Crows are going to be a decent team before long
