Trac literally said this.. Probably not to this extent but pretty much told GWS that he did not want to go interstate if he slipped that far due to having close family links in Melbourne. Obviously it was well known Trac was pretty immature at the time but I do know this was a fact for sure.

Johnson has it in for us every since 2021 Grand final. I am also still dirty on him for stealing Russell Robertson's All Australian spot in 2005.

Ridiculous to think Fritta staged that. That's why channel 7 commentary team are [censored].

Poor bugger. Probably best he take a week for the benefit of his health and wellbeing.

Insanely good footballer. How is it that the media not talked up his game from the weekend after completely towelling up Darcy Moore?

Still filthy that he didn't receive a free kick from Tom Mitchell completely taking him out without the ball. Absolute joke! Other then that, the kid is a serious serious talent. How absolutely wrong I was after watching him at Casey last year. it's all the hard work he's put in over the off season to put himself in this position. A mindset of a future 150 game warrior. No wonder he was rated a potential top 10 pick at under 16's level. Just add that to the Jason Taylor's bucket of unknown talent plucked out of nowhere.

Cannot see why we can't play Smith, Petty and JVR in the same forward line? You'd just drop the extra small (Spargo). People forget Smith is one of the quickest players in our list so realistically he does play small and short. Also showed in the weekend that he defensive forward pressure is pretty good for a player his size. The other aspect is their flexibility. Both Smith or Petty can plug holes down back in case of an inury to one of our tall defender during games.

Don't even mention Hunter. If it was up to @DeeSpencer Hunter would be currently at Casey. Just shows how completely out of touch he is with the game and current team dynamic. Hunter was absolutely enormous yesterday and has been great pick up this year.

I reckon Spargo could be in serious trouble for his spot next week. Oliver and Bowery to return. Who makes way??

Okay mate..

Back 6 were [censored] unreal! Adam Tomlinson take a bloody bow. Ive questioned his work this year but even after last week I was satisfied with his performance. This week he went up a notch! Lucky he wasn't dropped as @DeeSpencer was adamant he would... 😎 This now has to be our settled back 6 for the rest of the year.

So [censored] proud of the lads!! 😭 Oh, and Mason Cox go back to America you absolute filth!

Would be great if Petracca could show some form of composure. C'mon lads! We got this!!

Completely shooting ourselves in the foot. Can see where this scripts end.

We have genuine ball butchers in our team. Forward entries woeful

Second week in a row of disgraceful kicking at goal. Kozzie and Gruny.. you've got to kick those ffs.

Zero composure going forward once again. Angus Brayshaw is a dead set ducking liability.

If we win then no we're not. If we lose then yes we've been loading all season.

Jack Ginnavan a potential late out today.

I won't quote that whole thread of yours @binman because I don't want a double up on a long well written out message. Bit that's not bad by you, actually well written and you've clearly put time into that response. You make some valid points indeed. My main point was that there are some on here that have the right to reserve their judgement on team performance and shouldn't have to be told what and how they should feel on current team performance. There are still some patterns of behaviour still lingering from the team of last year that probably why some are still hesitant with being over too optimistic. Me personally? I'm in the camp of just reserving my judgement for now. And on top of that, I actually think we win today.

I didn get a chance to watch the game yesterday but will try and sit down to watch replay later this week. In the Coates league game I have seen him play he reminds me so much of Josh Daicos with his ability to do his work on the inside but also spread hard to run and receive on the outside. Hoping that was on show yesterday.

Sorry, just wanted another reminder that this is a grand final like game..?

I think we win today by a close margin. It's time Kozzie Pickett stands up for a big game. He's been quite of late. Hopefully by more midfield time. Something about JVR and big game occasions just goes together for me.

I too will question our ability this year if we can't knock off Collingwood without Elliot, DeGoey, McStay, Sidebottom and a quarter of their players being unwell. Yes we have Oliver out but they're ripe for the picking today. Time to make a statement today.

Key forward and more midfield depth.
