Heath is a 23yo that got pushed down St Kilda's ruck pecking order by their importing of a 26yo De Konig, and he's come to a club whose two main rucks on the list are both 34yo, one of whom is a peerless titan of the game he could learn greatly from.

Like as in a first Melbourne game (Heath) or a bona fide debut (XT or Luker)??? The suspense is killing me!

Any word on how Viney is tracking, Ghosty?

I miss Nibbler 😥

Great news!

So sounds like Melky is definitely playing this weekend irrespective of Fritta's availability - presumably Laurie would make way then?

Just wanted to say a huge thank you to @binman for filling the breech solo these weeks; it was great to hear your thoughts and analysis on a fantastic win during a time of excitement and change for the team. Thanks too to Andy @Demonland for taking the time out of your travels to facilitate the continuation of the pod while you're away.

Not what ABC radio was saying. They were loving our attacking play right to the death and were gushing that we were playing the kind of footy they liked to see.

Correct. The Pies did that against us a few years ago as one example I can recall.

Life trumps football. 👍

Is the lid off?

We're back in the 8. Yeah!

What an epic choke by Carlton. Voss, do the honourable thing and resign.

How is that not dropping the ball

...and a special mention for TMac's crucial 2021 GF 3rd qtr ragdolling of the Dogs defender over the goal line to see Sparrow's kick safely through, without which we wouldn't have had the immortal "Bang bang bang".

[censored] sake can David King ease up on the predator-prey metaphors.

That one super costly. [censored].

Hey everyone it's Judd McVee's Mum's troll account.

Is it going too early to say we won this trade?

Can someone please ask Kate Roffey to give him a call to see how he's going?

Ran about 10 metres and then detoured around two players without bouncing the ball. I'd be the mean field umpire that theatrically blows the whistle on a running too far free kick as the ball sailed through the big sticks.

Yes I saw that too. Also gave a fist pump from the goalsquare as Roo's kick sailed through. It was heart-warming to see - great signs in terms of his buy-in and embraced the mentor fwd role.

And didn't Petty kick 6 vs the Tigers a few years back. I have a recollection of him, Melky and someone (maybe Fritta) combining for 14 goals?

He had a fantastic second effort in the centre that recovered an error. Kudos to Kolt. He's a bit raw and makes a few mistakes, and could be more focused sometimes but he did well on a very tough assignment.

Great work Sharpe. Significant height disadvantage but still won the contest and goaled!
