Kit Walker

Probably need to put someone (Harmes?) on Miller - 17 touches that quarter...

Unless something dramatic happens in the next few minutes, 3 of the 4 games this week will have been lost by the team with more scoring shots. Bad kicking is bad footy...

Lions really miss Hipwood - their forward line is nowhere near as potent without him

Without Toby (and to a lesser extent Hogan), the GWS forward line is bottom 4 standard. And that's with a very decent midfield delivering the ball in...

Luke Parker is still some sort of player

Sydney's key backs are McCartin, McCartin and a 31yo Rampe. Not worried

Yep.

Truly shocking.

Woeful for the dogs and will dominate the news about this game now.

 

One of the most remarkable press conferences I've ever seen.

Toys well and truly ejected from the pram.

Whinging about the McDonald's ball blocking the sponsors on his shirt (despite them covering the wall behind him) then that gutless attack.

Only question is how big a penalty he gets from the AFL

I've got it installed on at least 3 (possibly 4 devices) - don't know the limit other than it can only run simultaneously on two.

Reinstall can't hurt

Hi FD.    Since installing my 2022 voucher on my iPhone I've NOT been able to watch any pre 2022 replays.  Frustrating with no footy to watch for months. 
Crazy thing is, older replays have worked on my girlfriends computer (though I don't watch footy at her place)!?  
Would love to get pre 2022 replays on iPhone though.   Cheers

May be an Apple app issue? I've renewed mine again this year and no problem with replays back to 2017 on Samsung tablet

Unfortunately why I don't think he'll win the Brownlow. Don't think the Umps love him either

Averages more than 0.5 votes a game before this year - he must be reasonably polite to the umps!

The second best player I have seen in my lifetime goes something like this

1 Robert Flower

2 Clayton Oliver

3 David Schwarz

I reckon you'd have a tough job separating our best three at the moment, who have one hell of a supporting cast. 

Don't disagree with one (though I only saw the end of his career), but Allen Jakovich was probably the most incredible individual talent I've seen in my time. The Wiz and Neitz were pretty handy too...

I'll be watching it on my tablet at 10am in the UK, hoping my broadband can cope with the stress...

This is OUR YEAR.

Great teams believe they will win. Our team this year has all the hallmarks of a great team.

Already just about the most articulate current or ex-footballer in the media

Will depend upon the view of his fitness and who we play for the PF.

His last two weeks have been pretty poor but does an extra week's fitness cover that given he's had a very good season? Do we need the extra tall? Probably yes and I wouldn't bring in Weidemann 

Wow. Just bloody wow.

The forecast is for rain at the G. We’re good at that.

Harry Petty with four direct goal assists from spoils. Guaranteed.

Clearances and free kicks clearly overrated...

Possibly the best spoil I've ever seen - 40 metres crashing through a pack down the corridor leading directly to a goal.

Out: Sparrow and Spargo

In: B Brown and Melksham

Melksham does way more

Agreed - desperately missing some quality delivery into the 50.

Lost at the selection table. Why play Sparrow if you don't trust him with 55% game time. Surely Brown plays next week?

Pickett and Spargo look woefully out of form at the moment. Witches hats in forward 50

Lewis Taylor beat Marcus Bontempelli for it a few years ago. Surely it's based on the season and not potential.

It's both - Bont's first season was nothing special whereas Taylor looked like a 25/goal a game star. Hasn't kicked on but it happens.

In terms of the Jordon/Jackson comparison, JJ is a hard working third year player. Jackson could be NikNat good and is a regular 2nd ruck as a 19yo in a top side having a decent scoreboard impact. Only one is a chance of winning rising star

Outside mids to support Langdon:

Liam Duggan, Brayden Ham, Justin mcinerney, Oli Florent (long shot), petrevski-seton as a hybrid mid on the cheap to rejuvenate his career

 

 

Petrevski-Seton is an interesting one - probably gettable for a third rounder, horribly mismanaged by Carlton, ex pick 6 and only 23. Option on the wing and half forward - he's not really a defender or inside midfielder

If Gold Coast offered pick 3 for the Weid i would snap their hand off
