I think we definitely win. But I expect them to come out pretty fired up with the media build up during the week and a fired up Patty Cripps

Wasn't a fan of the Jefferson selection at all last year, still not, but I'm not willing to write him off straight away. The games I've seen him play this year has so far been disappointing with his output

Don't mind tge changes. We needed the extra big defender. The Smith forward experiment will be so intriguing to watch.

Not sure we need him?? Serious?

Tomorrow mate

Agree.

Gobsmacked he was allowed to play again. I really do feel for him but a part of me says he was fully aware of the risks and education around head knocks around the time he chose to resume his career. He knew well and truly what he was getting himself back into and for that I don't know whether I can fully sympathise with him. AFL should have at least stepped in and advised kindly not to play.

Jesus.. even at VFL the MRP are still out to get us.

Would be silly not to ask the question. Problem is, he'll be demanding a fair bit and I'm not sure whether we can fit him in.

Out of all the players that left last year it's Hunty the one that I feel for the most. Baker or Weids I couldn't give a stuff about. Had he not done his ankle we would be talking about a premiership player. Unfortunately he's now playing for a trash WAFL club which to me just doesn't look or feel right after all the [censored] years he went through.

Oh.. lol

I 2nd this. Harmes should only be brought in purely if we want a hard tag on someone which we barely do now days. If that's the case, then he stays at Casey. I thought initially they would have brought Harmes in for Sparrow to play to do a job on Butters but wasn't the case. Selection are just as confusing as last year.

Surprised people are just catching on to this? Why do you think he's always attempting don't argues and gets pinged straight away and then it kills momentum. The dude is a wannabe Dusty. His sole role in the team should be a tagger first and foremost or nothing else. Goodwin has now shown he's not willing to run a tagger in the team anymore which means Harmes has no place in the side and simply should not be playing because he doesn't add much either way.

Even the noise in last year's finals was pretty flat the whole game. Stark different to 2018 finals series.

Had the chance to watch the VFL replay from the weekend. Imo Ben Brown moved as well as I have seen him since 2021. He actually didn't look as stagnant as he has for the past 12 months. Whilst he only kicked the 1 goal, he roamed bit further up the ground and moved well. I'd chuck him in for either Tmac or JVR if they feel he needs a rest.

Couple of tins.

Which was?? Serious question.

Newman, Hewett, Cerra and potentially Cripps will all miss.

Anyone know what the Gawn spray was directed at during the 3 qtr time break? Was completely out of character..

Another great performance by Kynan yesterday against Northern Knights. Kynan had another 30 disposals and 4 tackles for the day being one of their best players on the ground.

The bombing into the forward line has been evident since last year. I'm utterly confused why we haven't rectified this over the off season when it was a glaring issue for our forward connection.

You legitimately said you think supporters enjoy a loss purely so they can come on here and have a crack. That's plain wrong and I'll continue to call you out on your [censored]. No supporter enjoys a loss. Watched the replay this and nothing completely changes my argument whatsoever. In fact all it does is back up every single main point I made. You could learn a few pointers off me.

The issue with ANB is that his horrible moments are on display on a weekly basis. It's just so predictable that once the pressure goes up he crumbles and fumbles his way through like a bumbling mess. Defensive and tackling shouldn't be a compensation for all of his deficiencies. It's getting to the point where it's costing us big time. His form last year in the back half was woeful. He alongside Spargo should have been dropped and given opportunities to Bedford. The sooner we can add another talented small whether that's through the draft or trade period the better we can start phasing him out of the team.
