That makes 5 ‘season defining’ games in a row now

you might be right. The reserves write up mentions Hunt and Smith as possible to come in. maybe for Jones who could use a rest

I'm already excited to see the Suns (hopefully) smash the Dons. With the Saints, Tigers and us to come after tonight, their season should be done soon! which gives me far too much joy

Interesting to hear all the positivity on here about Demons beating the Pies. all we have done is beat the two worst teams in the comp. and lost to the two best teams. I wonder where we really sit? Somewhere between 7th and 12th I’d wager. the Pies are starting favourites for the game at the bookies. With their injuries and coming off a 4 day break we’d have to be a good chance

I'd say he'll be cut. The irony is he would very likely be getting a game at the bombers right, given their injuries We still have Petty to come back to help our tall fwd stocks

Finally some sense! Viney is not a guy you play majority of the time fwd. Rotate the best 4 through the midfield and rest one fwd. Oliver and Trac already spend time forward. Viney's intensity and aggression is clearly underated by some on here. When the top teams come and hopefully finals come, no doubt Viney is starting on the ball. Not sold on Gus yet, he has done well against the two worst teams in the comp, let's see if he can back it up against some decent teams

What a crock. I'm sure if the lions had Hogan and T Mac kicking 50 goals each, Hipwood wouldn't have gotten much for a game either Hipwood has looked like he adapted to AFL level quicker as despite being skinny, he is very agile and a different player to Weed

Big out Treloar. Has been in great form

Any idea on Treloar, Hoskin-Elliott and qwaynor?

That would be great. Much better than heading over to Perth! Freo are good at home

so sad to see the hawks in the bottom 4. Hope they stay there for a loooooong looooong times

They might have been third but it Wouldn’t surprise me if the saints miss out on finals. No gun tall fwds, inside midfield can be beaten. Play keepings off and they fold

He is averaging 1 tackle per game and 9 touches. Also less than 1 assist per game. Not doing enough team things in my opinion. Especially considering how talented he is and he is in his prime. he does have 12 goals which is keeping him just ticking over. I think he needs a rocket

I reckon some young players could use a game off to stay fresh. this week perhaps Jackson? He would sore after being 1st ruck gawn for Jackson viney for Harmes - or milkshake

I reckon the saints are more likely to slide down the ladder. So I’m ok with the cats winning. Saints are majorly overrated

Good call Werridee. 19 uncontested possessions last night, 82% efficiency. what we have been crying out for, for years. Everyone talks about his poor disposal but while he is not elite his disposal is good. he knows his limitations. Has pace and great intensity and tackling. will only get better when the team get used to looking up and wide and knowing he will be free

Spargo -played like 2018 arguably our best kick inside 50

T Mac is an important senior player. He worked in to some form so no way he should be dropped. 7 tackles amongst his good work. harmes and melksham should be dropped. Jones and Tomo might be trouble also. But let’s see how they balance the talls and the defenders

Apparently our skipper is on the field!

North are a horrible team. If we can’t pull away there is no point in trying to make finals

Gee Spargo looks a player. wheres @WERRIDEE?

Good selections from Goody, Hannan and Kozzi look sharp

What a kick from Gus. Perfect

I thought Carlton had flown past us and are closer to a flag? ?

Cripps is crying out for a rest. Must be carrying a few niggles. They’d benefit a lot more from him being fit than struggling through each game
