Watching the replay right now and Tim Smith played a very valuable role on McGovern. Not only that, he provided a lead up target through CHF which opened up the space for McDonald and Hunt to roam in and out. But also got onto some really good lead up grabs and dish to our running players. Pity anout the concussion. I hope he is okay for next week because i feel like he give him a good string of games and ge could play an important role.

Lets get a bit of perspective here. May Lever Hibberd Melksham Vandenberg Hannan Joel Smith Jetta Lewis KK These are names who i regard as best 22 when up and firing. We win last night with these blokes running around in our side.

% will be our biggest issue.

The 2 games Pruess played, Maxy never rested forward at all.

Pending concussions it seems like we got through with no injuries which is handy!

The Liam Ryan mark is a result of Fritsch [censored] poor defending who just coasted behind him as Ryan floated from the flank all the way in. Fritsch is not a defenders [censored]! All we are doing is ruining his development. Its either up forward/wing or Casey for me.

Viney has one way of playing and thats the crash and bash manic style which he tends to goe overboard with as theres time where he tries to just run through packs and gets done holding the ball. Needs to watch Joel Selwood and see how he got that balance right. In regards to leadership, i have never rated him as a leader. Just hasn't really cut it for me over the years. I seriously cringe when he gives media interviews, stutters and slurs and sometimes he makes completely no sense whatsoever. Go back to his press conference a couple of weeks ago or watch him in general on the podcast.. its like nails going down a chalkboard. You need someone who represents your club in the media eye and Jack sucks. Gawn for me is the one. I think Jones will step down at years end and in my opinion this title should be given to Gawn solely. Now if this bloke can get his body right and play good consistent chunk of games then Jake Lever will also make a very very good leader and potential future captain. Just oozes class in front of the camera and by all reports has all the future leadership traits of someone who's destined for this role.

Id give him 5 week stretch of senior footy. I reckon he will be the kind of player that will actually play better at AFL level rather then the VFL standard. Loved his game tonight

Can i just ask... Where the [censored] was this effort in last years prelim???!

There are a lot of positives to take out of this game. The likes of Lockhart, Hore, Wagner, Smith, Baker and Petty were all impressive tonight. Hore intercept marking is just elite. Lockhart is so strong in the air and his ball use is impressive. Petty and Baker just need games under their belt now. More experience the better they'll get.

Petracca and the coaching staff need to some [censored] out.. there is a very talented footballer there who is just completely over thinking way too much.

Eddie McGuire is filthy on the non decision on the dangerous tackle on Smith.

Oh and Nathan Vardy is a [censored] GRUB!!!!

Finals are officially gone. Don't blame the umpires. We shot ourselves in the foot because we struggle to kick set shot goals from 20m directly in front (Looking at you trac) Fritsch is a putrid footballer down back! Butchers the footy which just resulted in goals. That was Nathan Jones worst game ever! [censored] putrid!!

Wow... just wow... [censored] hell Frost you are seriously one of the modt dumbest [censored] footballer ever!!!!

Fritsch canFUCK OFF!!!!!! EVERY TOUCH HAS GONE TO A [censored] EAGLE!!! GET HIM OFF GOODWIN FFS!!!

Good Fritsch has been so badly exposed down back. Why we continue to persist is mind boggling

That was Lockharts goal!

Game over

We only have ourselves to blame not the umpires. We are done

What the [censored] was Oliver thinking!! [censored] idiot!

Yesss Garlett!!!!!

Holy [censored] we are in this!!!!

Needs to talk to Russell Robertson. I remember he went through a similar faze earlier on in his career, fixed it up and become one of our most accurate kicks for goal.

OH [censored] OFF UMPS!!!!
