hawks not at the races at all. There's a percentage boost for us here today if we put on foot down

billings will be recruit of the year if he keeps this up

Kossie on fire so far

sparrow has started better today

looked a push in the back from Fritschy

north have collapsed in a heap. one-way traffic now

jackson still double grabbing he's playing well though. one of their best i'd say.

North are outstanding. Best I've seen them play in years. Swarming all over the dockers. We'll see if they can keep this up but if i was a North fan i'd be very happy with what i'm seeing.

Positive start North. taking the game on

sparse looking crowd at docklands

some folks love getting their knickers in a twist over selections. ben brown does not need to prove form. Fitness is his challenge which is why he will not play every game. He is being managed.

Hard question. I hate lots of teams. Pies obviously, Richmond, Hawks, bombers, Carlton. I have a special dislike for the West Coast Eagles. There's an arrogance and entitlement which really grates with me. Seen it up close during own ill-fated prelim in 2018 and won't forget it. I hope they languish for a long time. Edit: forget to mention the cats. I thoroughly hate the Cats.

As soon as I saw the thread title I immediately thought Dangerfield (sorry) but he's probably too woke for the role. Need a little chauvinism to play bond.

2 games in so too early to have a proper gauge of where Crows are at but they need to improve significantly on what they've dished up so far. Pathetic for 3 quarters against the suns and underwhelming at home v the aging cats. I had them in the 8 but not as confident now.

Fritschy won't have 2 poor games in a row. He'll kick 3 or 4. Petty to find his way into the game and hopefully kick a couple. We need this man fit if we're going to get our hands on the holy grail this year. fingers and toes crossed no lingering problems. Clarry will get the Maginnis tag by the sounds of it. Interesting to see how he deals with that Hawks always pose problems and make it difficult but if we're switched on i can't see them beating us. This game is played at the same family friendly timeslot each season, so my kids have seen us beat the Hawks regularly. It's helping foster a healthy disdain in them for the Hawks. An important life lesson i reckon. See you all at the G. Dees by 35 points

Cameron is a fantastic player. kicked 2 beauties already tonight.

Browns knees are cactus. He'll need to be nursed through the season. Reckon being named sub is just part of managing him while also giving some gametime to Petty.

terrible i50 delivery from the crows. butchering opportunities

why is this review taking so long. blind freddie could tell the ball has crossed the line.

crows need to get a grip or this could get ugly. Ball coming in way too easily

crows don't look much chop so far

both cats goals way too easy.

I have to admit I'm jealous of the dockers this year death riding the pies first pick. Early days but it looks like it will be a juicy pick for them.

people have forgotten that the Elliot mark for the first goal clearly bounced into his arms. an obvious non-mark. reckon the out of bounds goal squared that injustice so pies can't complain on that front. they did get stitched by the umps though.

lions and pies to fall out of top 4. reckon Swans, Giants, Carlton and ourselves will fill the top slots this year.
