Imo best player in the league. Will get back to his best. Would love to get him. So strong, amazing mark. Driven, wants to win a flag

He is a leader. He did the same at the Hawks (as does hodge) and was a leader there and did alright imo we would not have won without Lewis's aggression on Sunday

Injury List 4-4-17 Colin Garland (knee) – season Michael Hibberd (Achilles) – 1-2 weeks Liam Hulett (hip) – 1 week Mitch King (knee) – 3 weeks Pat McKenna (hamstring) – 6-8 weeks Joel Smith (shoulder) – 3-4 months Aaron vandenBerg (heel) – 6-8 week seems to be getting better, we just need to get those that arent 'injured' match fit - Kent, Frost, Wagner etc.

worst is that Vanders is out until round 10 (at least)

thanks for rubbing salt into the wounds!

I agree on Hogan but I thought Lewis was trying to show the way through borderline legal aggression. I dont think we would have won without what Lewis did. He sparked the brawl and woke us up, he wouldnt have expected to connect like he did and cripps to be a [censored] about it

I thought was a joke when I read it! 3 for Lewis!?? not much vision but Ive looked closely, there is a forearm to the head. certainly low contact. cripps goes down and then is magically fine 30 seconds later. I thought Hogan deserved a week as you cant deck someone off the ball but 2 is harsh add in the varcoe and thompson ones and I just want to lose my SHITT!

Gus was poor today. Interesting to see how how Simon deals with it. Hopefully keeps him in. Hogan out. Bernie in maybe kent for Hannan or Gus maybe Wagner for harmes if we need a backman

Hogan was an off the ball soft punch in the jaw. Will be one week for sure lewis not as clear cut. A chance to get off I'd reckon.

Turn off the umpires mikes show decent replays after a goal and not just for 2 seconds before the next bounce

It's still not as funny as taking Martin over hogan

If not for the 10 goals from buddy and Reid that would have been an easy win for the dogs Swans midfield is in poor form- when do you see Hannebery, jack and Kennedy be so ineffectual? They really need heeney back

It's funny how the best team gets seemingly a good run with the umpires. Was Hawks now dogs. Maybe they just get to the ball first more often

BT is dead set the worst commentator of all time. Arrogant self important toss bag

Buddy is a freak. Great to watch

we will probably break even at clearances - (Oliver and Cripps will run into each other and the G will shake. Viney will give pretty boy Murphy some attention) but once we start moving the ball from our back line and spreading the game, we will smash them on the outside (cannot believe I am writing this about the Dees) aside from 4-5 players they are a rabble

my personal favourite horrible forward line from the Dees was when Garland and Rivers were our 2 key forwards

Don't feed the troll mate

How bad has the pies recruiting been?? Jesse white getting a game? Defence is horrible. They have sold the farm for a couple of mids but have no skilful players. Buckleys understanding of footy is poor

Outs: Vince and Smith Ins: Tyson (starting 18), Kent, Harmes, Spencer, Wagner Wagner to get the nod as we need defenders

Dead set freak

Ha, I agree. He had a poor game. Him and goody were at pains to say he played well but zero tackles/pressure acts. No intensity or aggression especially in the first half. He better improve this week

Dees by 94 points

Clearance Oliver. What a gun. What a selection. Never seen a kid make playing footy (for Melb) look so effortless and his tank is good already, but wait until he gets up to 85-90% game time! 40 touches a week

we increased by 4-5 thousand in the months after round 1 last year even considering the performance against the bombers so we will easily get to 42K performances will dictate if we push 45K new members will come from the more casual fans that want to see a decent team play and not get hammered each week
