Gorgeous kick there from Tmac.

I could just cry. How good is this news!

Thanks for the heads up - just purchased a copy. Hoping that by October this year it has to be retitled "The 2nd Last Hurruh"

If that were the case I'm surprised they didn't select sparrow as emergency, who I would have thought was a more like for like alternate than Baker.

Long term deals can give more flexibility in terms of salary cap management - e.g front or back loading, or as I suspect are the cases with the Harnes and Viney deals, a little less money year on year for the security the longer term offers - as others have said, this frees space for the Trac, Oliver, etc., contracts.

Couldn't agree more. We're not talking about an in-game reshuffle. We're talking about replacing a long-term injured player's role. Has to be Petty.

Such a delusional supporter base. They beat cellar-dwelling Collingwood for christ's sake!

Sparrow in for Baker (assuming Viney doesn't get up) Petty for Tomlinson (or do we go Majak for some X factor?) Chandler for Jones If Fritch is rubbed out, Weid in. * I'm not keen on going the TMac back route - this isn't a stopgap - Tomlinson will be out to mid 2022 if it's an ACL. Time to get some time into Petty for that role.

Very relieved. Good effort to overcome the early injuries and flatness from last week's exertion. I'm shattered for Tomlinson. He's been so good this year.

Because we were on 150% and would have needed to beat North by at least that percentage to keep it where it was. Something like 110 to their 73, not our 103.

We're up 97 to 73 with 5 mins 36 sec on the clock

Standing up when we need to

Commentators not even pretending they aren't barracking for North. Pathetic.

He's had a huge few mins

So this is what it feels like having BBB winning frees in the fwd 50!

That's more like it. Our run along the wing is starting to come back.

That umpire's centre bounce wasn't called back and it nearly landed outside the centre square

Jackson's hands are classy

Loss of Viney pre game (oh to have named Sparrow as an emergency) and Tomlimson a few mins in has rooted our structure. Add to that our sharpness and effort being off we are in strife. Big big lift needed in 2nd half.

Ooooh Fritsch that could be costly at MRP time

Baker is not up to it

Is TMac playing today?

So tired of how these [censored] commentators are so nonchalant when a player (e.g. Gawn) gets a whack in the head. Didn't Dunstall share a commentary box with Spud Frawley FFS???
