Unqualified opinion

We did what we were expected to do. Our defence was outstanding given the adversity. Whilst Tmac looked like a b triple chasing Chip, Hore stepped up and Howes did some nice things too. Fritsch tightened up after a quick start by Sicily, to finish with 5 was a great effort owning the Hawks skipper. Petrraca is a gun, and as those above have mentioned, he was a class above. Kozzie also looked a class above in the small forward role. and lastly kudos to the recruitment team - billings and Windsor provide skillful quick transition which only helps our forwards. Tough run of games coming up. Hopefully the other players pull up ok and May & Lever can get right and come back in sooner rather than later. Dees 🔴🔵

Good win Dees 🔴🔵

Healy: “it’s a modern day bag, the five” Pretty sure five has always been a bag.

Another bag for Fritta

Not my wizard

Also lucky to have Petty and Tmac in the side who have been out and out defenders in recent years

Good kick chin. Looks like his back in form.

Clear throw. No call.

Dwayne is a halfwit

[censored] umpire. No consistency at all

Fritta!!

McVee is a gun

Best goal umpire in the business.

Did Huddo just say Oscar McDonald?

Kozzie on fire 🔥

Essendon people are the worst……and given they haven’t done anything for 20 years god help us if they win a final. Long may the streak continue: 7140 days and counting. PS. Geelong fans are like Americans (apologies for any Yankee Dees fans) - they’re okay on their own but a group of them is insufferable. PPS. The Carlton fans near us were far worse than the Collingwood in our finals…..but both have claims for most hated.

I think I heard on SEN that they broke their contract at marvel to play at G which cost them $100k. Pretty shrewd business cause the filth rocked up tonight and would’ve returned a profit over and above the break fee. Just lucky to come away with the win too https://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/sport/afl/afl-facilitates-st-kildas-request-to-host-spuds-game-at-mcg-to-better-promote-marquee-clash/news-story/d8cff68b7a13fe6a0b1052d1d15307f4?amp&nk=90303aea4abb9d983eb38642b1f659d4-1711019963

How’s that not 50m? Howe lined up on the mark in front of King facing the kicker. He had to be over the mark. Lucky King didn’t need the 50 and slots it

Covid also a factor back then. The game was first crowd at mcg since July 2021. And the matches with crowds before then were well down on average crowd sizes. Was a lot of people’s first game for 2 seasons - plus we unveiled the flag!! https://afltables.com/afl/venues/mcg_gm.html

I thought it would be the Cross Cup after Daniel. We have the perfect trophy collecting dust.

Was last week Grundy’s GF?

If he wore red & blue it would HTB. For a thug it’s knocked out in the tackle with no prior opportunity. So much grey….

Such a shame those tackles aren’t rewarded

A driving tackle with arms pinned breaking a collarbone is not a free if perpetrated by a filth player.
