Good to see an article back up what some have always thought and known.

A nice game to come back too after a bye round, a quality outfit would have got a hold of us.

Blew some cob webs off, now onto the pussys.

McAdam will be huge when he comes into this team.

Hope he has a good run at it and has taken the appropriate time to get the kms in and allow his body to get over his calf injury.

Thought Disco was stiff not to win the Anzac medal i reckon 1 goal would have sealed it, but can't begrudge Big Maxy winning it.

AFL gets more amateur every week 

That was holding the ball. 
But The Croms blew that anyway, so many chances

Rachele on National TV [censored] himself 

Rachel (yes i said Rachel for obvious reasons) cost them the game in the last, but Ess squandered alot of shots on goal throughout the game.

Charlie Cameron gets off a sling tackle because he does alot of great work in indigenous communities.

I have heard it all now.

How can a club extend a players contract if he was under an extensive concussion measurement program?

Murphy had 1 year to run extend out to 3 years. Knowing he wouldn't play again would love to know what sort of a pay rise they gave him to strengthen their bargaining power for a comp pick.

Very negligent of Collingwood and the AFL for allowing this to happen effectively ticking off on it to futher their case for compensation.

Very suspicious activity allowed to happen and the AFL and turned a blind eye to it all.

Great stuff 

and even better Carlton lose two players to hamstring injuries 

great!

Lets see how they cope with injuries these front runners.

So the win we had against Adelaide was hard fought all of a sudden.

2 games in 5 days tells more of a story about our performance against the Lions.

Choke on that blooz.

Have a [censored] taste of your own medicine.

No one in the media mentioned the Lions had played the first 2 rounds, break in round 2 (bye) and another break in round 4 (against North) whilst we have played both Adelaide teams off a 5 day break and 6 in a row.

They love sticking it to us don't they!

Too little to [censored] late!

Hopeless, [censored] hopeless tonight,

This has been an ambush 2 weeks in the making.

They'd been planning for this all during Gather round against North, whilst we were slogging it out playing 2 tough games.

Didn't have a good feeling about this from this morning.

Shaping up to be our worst  performance since the Port loss in 2020 at the Gabba.

Have to agree.

We look tired;  BBB, Petty Billings nothing

 

Shot to bits.

We butchered two attacking thrusts in that last little peroid.

We had them cold and reduced the deficit by a couple of goals.

Terrible football.

This is embarrassing against this lot.

What f k is going on?

Very lethargic start.

Time to lift now lads.

 MFC Casey players are out now.

All rehabbers have joined them, Marty, McAdam, Melky, Bowey, Sestan.

Sestan has some left shoulder strapping.

McAdam doing well. Accelerating with power and some beautiful shimmies and cutting lines in a handball comp/drill.

No, not Marty. Trainers call him out, he wanted to be in the drills, but no. Also, not Bowey. Though they both play in the structural sims.

White caps are Sestan and Turner, (no tackling).

Hunter doing some instructions when the sims breaks.

The squad is looking classy, rarely any errors.

McAdam is looking the goods, (in the sim), running hard defensively and when attacking. 

Schache is playing well.

Jefferson gets lost at times, needs more work on his decisions and intention. When he has space, he kills it with skills.

Andy Moniz-Wakefield is in the backline.

All these positive signs are an indication of a great team.

ABSOLUTELY!!

We'd have another flag if Melk and/or Petty didn't get injured. 

Aside from having those guys injured right before finals, and Fritter clearly not 100% - it would have been incredibly disruptive for the team to have to continue to move magnets/adapt strategies before/during finals. 

Our forward line is already looking better, even though it's only still settling. Imagine 2-3 months with Petty/McAdam finding rhythm, and then Melk to return in good time to find his feet and form for finals. 

Might not be able to fit them all in.

In 2022 we beat Port in round 4 and then Adelaide in round 16. Both in Adelaide.

We did too.

I don't reckon the impact was hard enough personally to get suspended, Soligo played on after it.

No momentum going through contact.

Fight to get it downgraded to a fine.

I saw the bump live, didn't look like contact to the head.

From everyone's reaction, it seems that way?

I can't remember doing the double against the Crows and Powa in the same home and away season, this seems to be a first for mine.

Stand to be corrected.

the 2021 game at Adelaide Oval is remembered too well and they were saying exactly the same things before hand 

The old rope a dope approach got us in 2021.

Norwood have always had excellent financial backing. 

$$$ wouldn't be an issue but I think the AFL would want the financial backing of a state government much like the Tassie deal.
