One thing I am not understanding is if our pressure acts and team defence are much worse than last year how come no one can score against us? Still the best defence in the league perhaps we've got them all so mesmerised we dont even have to try that hard anymore!

Been a great workhorse forward running his guts out every week since being moved there (he gave me nightmares with his decision making as a defender): I think an underrated player in some ways playing in a very tough position on the field, not every tall forward is a superstar you need a grunt player there too at times. Well done to Tmac for being a 200 game premiership player!

Does v Carlton in a Mickey Mouse practice match count?

Not sure we can bring everyone back in at once after they’ve all had covid, interesting problem to have….

Great to see the boys get the job done after such a disruptive week, I too went down with covid so had to enjoy this one from the couch! Even us supporters are getting taken out

We’ll probably still win as we seem to have forgotten how to lose! Dees by 20

Yeah you’d assume he did a RAT before training though unless they are doing 2 a day…

This is odd if ANB trained today must have got symptoms later in the day

Could go with SOW

Neita to pull the boots back on if this keeps up!

Probably won’t happen though I was just throwing it out there more likely to be Weid or Tmac in to give Max a ruck chop out

We should still have more than enough quality to win this one, the Hawks are not at full strength either

Majak to make his debut if Jacko is out?

Agree with a lot of the sentiments in this thread Smith out please: looks far too shaky to play in our otherwise rock solid backline

Made hard work of but happy to rack up another W

I think it will be a pretty close game today and the Tigers will be up for the fight but we will prevail by 3-5 goals

Looks like we’ve decided that the rest of the competition doesn’t measure up so we might as well experiment: in one of the biggest games of the year

I also think it will be Weid out for BB - Tmac despite not being in great form lately still plays with a physical presence that Weid hasnt been able to find yet, and can kick a goal and contribute in general play. The Weid needs to find a few more tricks to his game and ways to win the ball other than clunking a mark, he's a touch one dimensional.

Yeah I thought the same - didn't really attack the ball at all, looked a bit disinterested

Hoges didnt get enough of the ball for there to be much booing....

GWS have got the makeup of their side badly out of balance - way too many inside mids who rack up big possession numbers but not enough outside run and no key targets to kick it to. Makes you wonder how its possible to have that many top picks and not be able to draft or trade for some key position players.

I 2nd this LOL….no way Brown is left out of ANZAC eve

He’s amazing he looks like a schoolboy but plays like a 150 game star

Hard to see where the next loss is coming from to be honest!

The good part is our players don’t seem to think like that anymore, even if us supporters haven’t quite shaken it!
