Really hate our ins this week both have been putrid

Buggy surely gone for 6+ stupid act and might not get a call up again this year.

Whites kicking is trash

BT is so [censored] annoying considering watching this game in mute.

Don't know why but I just get the feeling we will pump them tonight. With our ins I see Hunt playing forward and can see him kicking a bag especially if he gets out the back.

Can't beleive Motlop is only 26... Could be a good pick up and add some more x factor... however would absolutely love Kelly to be reunited with Salem and Hunt... however we just won't have the trade currency compared to other teams like north and the saints

I'm not writing us off in this one even with our injuries... the Weagles are a MUCH worse side without Kennedy and we have Gawn back who can generate goals just from his tap work! I got no doubt who ever will come in will have a role and if they play it then it will go a long way to winning. Sometimes a small forward line could work especially against the Eagles who rely heavily on intercept marking of Yeo and McGovern. We lower our eyes and don't put any height on the ball and it could work in our favor and our new manic pressure mantra in forward 50

Why are the doggies fans booing Watts? Have I missed something

"Max will play next week"- Simon Goodwin pregame

Buddy would be very close to the GOAT it he could mark overhead.

Rance is such a [censored] flop

Yeah just saw the replay looks like he only hit shoulder

Let's hope buddy get rubbed out for 2 for that bump;)

Can't decide who I want to lose more... Sydney if they lose pretty much zero chance of making the 8 which gets rid of one of our competitors... but if Richmond lose then opens up that 4th spot in the top 4.... plus I HATE Richmond

I dont want to get shot down here but what about both Gawn and Spencer come in for Omac (I know he probably had a career best game on Monday but the doggies forward line isn't huge) and ANB. We tried two ruck men for most if not all of the JLT and it seemed to work. Could allow both bigmen to work into match fitness during their rucking duties whilst the other rests forward. This would give us a clear advantage in the hit outs and minimises risk to our AA ruck. All whilst stretching the doggies defence too.

Stuck at work... got my missus to come and pick me up in the arvo so I can at least watch the last quarter on my phone on the drive home! Go dees!

Let's not get ahead of our self with not seeing a more impressive first game. He literally played 15 minutes and had a few touches..

If i was told at the start of year that Gawn and Hogan will miss more games than they play in the opening 10 rounds and we sat 5-5 I would take that for sure!! Lots of improvement for us in the back half of the year and can make a real good run at it. Hogan and Gawn are arguably our two most important players.

Judge away. That was a shocking quarter.

Do we practise goal kicking ever?

[censored]

Can see a 10 goal quarter coming up.... not sure what all the posters are complaining about. Pretty hard to get a lead kicking into that tough of a breeze. Reserve your judgements until we switch ends

Looks like a 4-5 goal breeze going GCs way.

I played a few games with Zak in the under 18s at Mount Eliza (I was a year older but he was playing up a grade or two) And his attack on the ball at that age was ferocious... to the point where me 6 foot 2 and 100 kgs didn't want to get in his path and I was on the same team! Made of the right stuff and would slot straight in. Would deffiantly be worth our first round this year... approx pick 10... which ironically is what Nathan was drafted at wasn't it?

Also noticed Weed is an emergency and Watts is listed as on the bench... could we see a late change? Jack seemed a bit off last week might be carrying something?
