The article on AFL site does not mention the Adelaide game https://www.afl.com.au/news/655064/pack-your-bags-dees-and-get-set-for-a-whirlwind-tour-of-oz

I don't see how, given the Queensland Governments travel restrictions: https://www.qld.gov.au/health/conditions/health-alerts/coronavirus-covid-19/current-status/urgent-covid-19-update#quarantine-sa-vic Bring GCS here to play at Marvel, they play there the following week. How hard is this? This is a ludicrous situation.

Firstly I will say that I like your confidence, and just wish I had it. But as Jake Lever said, we havent achieved anything yet. What worries me, and I suspect the majority of posters, is what we have served up over the past 6 weeks, not the first 12. Because in that time, most of the key stats show us to be a bottom 6 team, not top 4. The opportunity is NOW, not next year, or the year after. Look what happened after 2018, when we were all expecting a dynasty. And it must start this week. Remember that game against Adelaide in 2018, I think it was in Darwin, that is what I want to see this week. Not a limp 10 point win, or god help us, a loss. Do you think Geelong or Bulldog supporters would be worried about losing this week? Wouldn’t it be great to have that feeling, just knowing that you would be 99.5% confident of winning? Hands up folks, who has ever felt like that? History will tell us that it is extremely hard to win this thing from outside top 4. We need to win at least 3 of the next 4. Right now, based on recent form, that appears highly unlikely.

so bring the Suns down here. They are coming the following week anyway

At last, some joy this weekend! Watching those whingeing cheats lose!

Don’t understand all this talk of resting players. Haven’t we be doing some high intensity loading? Aren’t we supposed to be super fit due to our conditioning coach? Are Geelong, Dogs, Brisbane, Port resting players now? If players look tired it probably means they are!! Our work rate has dropped off over the past few weeks. The competition has stepped up a gear and we have been unable to go with them. There will be minimal changes this week. Bar Tomlinson, we have our best 22 on the park at the moment. If that is not good enough at this time of the year, then it’s all over.

Geez the media is having a bit of a crack at us at the moment. Kinda like they would love us to fall in a heap? Go shove it up their collective (orifices that produce bodily refuse), Dees

I have nothing against ANB. I just think we need a bit of polish going into and inside forward 50. Melksham provides that, ANB was the only one I could think of to go out.

Dogs don’t like the heat. If we bring it, we win. If we don’t, we get a pasting.

Good work. I like the way you analysed that, not just shoot it down in flames like others.

What’s confusing? Six ins, six outs. You don’t have to agree with it, it is a fan forum after all isn’t it?

I just think he needs to reinvent himself. Midfields now seem to be made up of contested players with height who can dispose of the ball while being tackled. Think Oliver, Bontempelli, etc. Maybe Jack is a pressure forward?

Worst case scenario is that finals are moved interstate, which I think is still a real possibility.

This not turning up mentally to games against low ranked sides needs to stop. NOW. Send a message that complacency, laziness and/or poor skills will not be tolerated. I don't care if we do not win another game and finish bottom half of the 8, and get bundled out first week. Build a ruthless winning culture. Weideman for Jackson Sparrow for Brayshaw Bowey for Hibberd Jones for Viney Melksham for Neal-Bullen Chandler for Pickett On notice - Brown

Well, if they do play this week, and limit the crowd to 25,000 then 80% need to be Dees fans, as it is our home game!

Three things about this interview: Gus thinks we are playing the Dogs this week He has no idea what the issue is with us not turning up against lower sides And they have been practising goal kicking for the last 2 months Oh dear!

And to see Petracca and Oliver having a laugh in the rooms at half time! Are they [censored] serious????

I am absolutely livid. Some of these players are just plain lazy. Why the [censored] do we need to make this so [censored] hard. We are so losing this game.

Geelong will be on top of the ladder at the end of this game. I feel ill.

Brad Close, is that John Holmes?

The umpires favour them, it is as simple as that. Been happening for years.

Our chances would diminish substantially yes. Third quarter Brisbane have little options going forward. Daniher ain’t winning a flag for you. What more do you need?

True, but history tells us that you have to finish top 4. Brisbane have just just lost their key forward. I do not see any club currently outside the top 4 winning the flag.

Maybe, would you like to nominate another club other than us, Footscray or Geelong who can win it?

If Brisbane lose this, and with Hipwood seemingly gone for the year, the premiership race is down to 3
