It needs looking in to. Some of last nights voting was shocking at best. Gone are the days of real class and match winners in Voss, Hird, Judd, Buckley, Cousins etc. It just isn't worth watching these days and if you speak to a few players they will quietly tell you they rate the AFLCA and AFLPA awards much higher.

Well actually it wasn't, he was running at 51% DE.

Yes stats are nice but it's what you do with those disposals that should count.

It makes absolutely no sense to me this, unless one of our big guys are on the move. We need a backup sure, but this guy could be first ruck at probably 8-9 clubs. Something is cooking in the kitchen I feel.

Oh well, spring is here and the snapper are already biting. Am looking forward to see what talent we bring in. We also did well to get as far as we did without our CHF and CHB.

We had brutal opposition for 6 games in a row was my point, dwell in misery, I'm already over it and looking forward to next year.

It was our 6th final in a row.

All I keep thinking about is the dropped games vs Cats x 2, STK and Port.......what could have been.

A couple of things that have annoyed me: 1. Brayshaw constantly using his left foot when he can use his right, the ball goes up in the air and half the side off the side of his foot making the ball spin wonky, he needs to use that right foot when he can for penetration, when he uses his left it just looks like hes showing off. 2. Petraccas set shots for goals and one step field kicking. 3. Lewis, Jones, Tyson. Can the club make the hard calls. 4. On a sunny 26'c day in Perth, how can we slip and fall over as much as we did, I just cannot believe it. 5. Just a bad day, every club has them. 0 goals in a half of a prelim is shattering and embarrassing, but all in all a positive year. 6. The boys started to look tired v Hawks, we had the toughest run home of anyone don't forget. WCE in Perth, Sydney, GWS then Cats, Hawks and WCE in Perth again. I'm looking forward to see what Jason Taylor etc can bring in, we seriously lack polish and skill, have done for decades.

Goalless at 1/2 time in a VFL / #AFLFinal 1897 Essendon 1897 Melbourne 1901 Collingwood 1903 Geelong 1905 Collingwood 1908 St Kilda 1913 St Kilda 1927 Richmond 2018 Melbourne

Lewis set the tone early for a young side with his stupidity and unprofessional brain fades and Jones had 8 touches to 3/4 time and laid 0 tackles for the game and he’s a captain. I’ll leave it at that, but those two did not lead from the front one bit, the rest followed badly.

We won the inside 50's lol...... LEADERS a DISGRACE AGAIN

Nathan Jones and Lewis absolutely horrendous today. Jones 8 touches in 3 quarters (again goes missing) and Lewis has been so dumb it is alarming. Gawn 6 touches, Tyson and Milkshake 8 each, Weid and Frost way out of depth

Jones 2 disposals

9 tackles 2/3 way through 2nd quarter, WTF? Jones should retire

Smith for Tyson wouldn't be a bad decision IMO, coinsidering WCE forward line, I'm happy either way but another intercept defender wouldn't hurt IMO. I've warmed to it.

Throw in a bit of Meredith and we should forfeit! ?

Rumour has it, we have both Matt Nicholls and Razor Ray vs WCE, be warned.

It's a good point and you'd like to think that with only 4 teams left, only the best umpires are now left, so could be good. However umpiring in the first two weeks of finals has been pretty terrible.

AFLs Puppet, it's becoming clearer by the day.

I've said it 100 times before, who gives a rats left nut what the media say! Stuff em'

After watching 360 and him pumping up the new proposed rule changes, he is clearly a moron. 18m goal rectangle ffs

It was actually Robbo who continually said he’d like to see Viney in finals. Gerard had jumped off us after the Sydney game until David King the Le him repeatedly to believe in the numbers. Gerry is like an old women who can’t think straight, chops and changes his opinion quickly and most annoyingly, finds tiny unimportant discrepancies in things but can’t work out why then overblows big things like Steve Smith, Ess saga that he made a goose of himself and more recently the State of The Game agenda he started plus the Gaff incident.

So you keep saying, yet you keep coming back....is that you Twateley?
