What an insane goal haha!

ANB fantastic then.

Bowey handballed it to him with two players already bearing down on him.

Poor by Bowey then.

Kozzie: - underperforms for several rounds. - causes debate among the supporters - questions asked by the pundits - plays an absolute blinder - dissenting voices told to eat their words Repeat.

But somehow more than Petracca

Sherrin-dipity

Watching him then, I noticed that he had two opportunities to lead and present an option, but just chose to watch his mates play some footy. Has he been told not to present himself in a one-on-one?

Unbelievably poor defense!!

Nice one Joel! The tactic of sending Clarry into the ruck to shake his tag is clever. Might have to get him to do the centre bounces as well.

I wouldn’t trouble the word “seriously” in this instance. But I am more and more of the opinion that a lot of Kozzie’s issues stem from not being coached well enough.

Of course I’m not happy. But the modern league is very competitive these days, and even teams who are low on the ladder find pockets of excellent form. I don’t see it as “Demons are being showed-up by duds”

I’d suggest that was an automatic response to, y’know, having taken the ball over the boundary line.

Arm wrestle with a team who beat the premiership favourites two weeks ago.

Laurie finding some confidence. Good to see.

Boundary umpire is the dill.

Adam Tomlinson

Kozzie isn’t playing for a couple more weeks.

Petracca outmanned by a first gamer.

MELK!!

Bailey Laurie is looking very unsure of himself out there. Third game, and maybe fair enough. But he doesn’t look ready for the big stage yet.

Let’s just say I prefer your phrasing.

Make it more obvious.

When are people on this forum going to finally understand that being able to attend games is a privilege, not a display of commitment? I would love nothing more than to be there today, but I will have to watch from home, for reasons I don’t owe anybody here an explanation. Stick your “shame” up your [censored].

Indeed. I try not to react to the millions of online opinions which like to simplify the world’s problems into an “us or them” scenario, but I think everybody needs to let go of the trope that drug abuse is essentially a bit of a “lefty-hippie” thing. When an otherwise affluent city is allowing the kind of degradation the initial poster took issue with, the culprit is almost always the corporatisation of essential services - aka the outsourcing of conscience. Sadly, something both “sides” of politics embrace wholeheartedly.
