2020 could mirror 2018 in some ways. Remember it took us until round 22 in 2018 until we beat a team in the 8. Then we went on a roll. Let’s hope it starts against St Kilda

Slightly off topic but is it just me that a week feels like an eternity now given we’ve had 4 and 5 day breaks. Feel like forever for this game to come around. But can’t wait ?

Took the player on and lost. Didn’t correctly dispose of the ball. Pretty simple

Why? It should’ve been paid holding the ball.

I feel sick.

Meanwhile they’ll get Pendlebury, Elliott, Hoskin-Elliott, Moore and Reid back. This game has become even more important

It’s a tendon according to Burgo on the website. 4-6 weeks

Spargo has been good.

I don’t know whether u saw the Kansas play the cats a couple of days ago but Goldstein wasn’t a major influence against Blicavs and Stanley. I don’t think it’ll be a bad thing with Tmac and Jackson as our rucks. At least the opposition won’t be able to shark off Gawn

Phew! I’m glad that’s sorted. Let’s move on ?

I’m not sold on Preuss either. As bad as he was last week, this could be the only thing from saving Tmac from being dropped. Although he may be undersized he could give O’Brien a bit of a run around. Giving Tmac a bit of freedom to run around might do him a world of good.

It’s not all doom and gloom which I was anticipating as I opened the link.

At least holding the ball is a new rule this week. Did anyone else get the memo?

We’ve been as bad as you can get but only 3 goals down. That’s a positive. But I’ve got nothing else.

Hope you’re right Bitter. Most nervous I’ve been for a game this year.

Loved this. I actually laughed out loud and scared the [censored] outta my wife who was asleep.

This is what I do understand. This was paid holding the ball right, so Bailey has the ball when the decision is made. How was it not 50m after he’s let go of the ball or pushed the ball away?

I can’t wait. I can go see the dees play at the Adelaide Oval. The club will embrace the challenge thrown at them and I think it’ll be a good thing.

The guy is the enforcer for us. He sets the tone and you’re right, he hurts players and that becomes a byproduct of perceived pressure. He was massive in 2018 in the lead up to the finals and the first two wins in September. If gets some game time together and builds on his match fitness he will be very important.

I think he was matched up Smith for most of the game and he was barely cited. He definitely had no influence on the game. His disposal wasn’t great at times but defensively I thought he was good.

It’s a dead set lottery

OMG Ainsworth. What the hell is he meant to do

Didn’t get a chance to get rid of it. It’s such an over correction.

I’ll finish the sentence for you... of a decision
