BDA

Mentioned Geraldton as an option. They have stadium so ready to go on that front

I didn't watch the Casey game. Is BB's issue injury, form or both.

I get Cornes is divisive but what's wrong with the list? Hard to argue with the top 4. Dangerfield should be replaced by Clarry.

Gold Coast aren't particularly good. Touk is injured which is a big loss. They've beaten the Cats and now the Tiges so have to be respected but they are just as likely to serve up rubbish as deliver a good performance. Witts is an excellent ruckman, Lukocious and Anderson are very good, Ben King if he's in the humour for it and I've always liked Sam Collins. He's tough and could play for a top 4 team. After that, they're average. I think we've got the Lions and Essendon performances out of our system and are back in the groove. We should win by 4-5 goals if the Suns play well and if they don't we'll put 50-60 points on them.

Brilliant news. Delighted he has committed to us. A very difficult player to replace if he had left as opposed to Jackson where we have replaced with a better player. He has signed up early which makes me wonder if he was ever a serious chance to leave. It's hard to know these days with all the rumour generated by the media. Anyways, it's put to bed now. Let's focus on a serious assault on this year's flag. I have a vision of Kozzy holding aloft the premiership trophy with the norm smith around his neck. Go Dees

Crows deserved to lose. Umps did their best for them. Atrocious goal kicking and crumbled in the last quarter. Take nothing away from the pies but that was an embarrassing defeat for the Crows.

Umps will get the Crows across the line here.

Crows goal kicking is dreadful. They've kept the pies in this because of it. they'll be sorry when the pies run over the top of them in the last.

5 people and 1 drum i think

Just heard a faint gold coast chant go up at Marvel. First time I've ever heard a Gold Coast chant.

Crows much the better team first quarter

Hardwick would love it.

what a goal rankine. he has gone to another level this year, a level i didn't think he had.

The Weid really needed to kick that one.

Terrible from the bombers. Cats doing as they please.

I agree @DeeSpencer produces some great analysis. I read all his posts. But i don't understand the constant bagging of Gus (Lewis was another who was always in the gun). At this stage it seems to be purely spiteful.

I don't like seeing the Cats play this well. But it is fun to watch Essendon embarrass themselves.

More nonsense from you today. The bloke has been retired for 4 seasons and you're still having a pop.

Setterfield with the shocking turnover. Bombers skills dire so far

A real hobsons choice this one. I want neither side to win so I think I'll barrack for the Weid to have a good game and kick some goals.

He's not the only one. Some of the comments about Gus on this site are embarrassing.

The Harley Reid slow bicycle race is going to be an interesting sub-plot to the season. North were horrible last night and the Eagles are beyond putrid. Hawks have some stiff competition in the tanking stakes.

They’ll be strong favourites to go back to back. Only injuries or bad luck will stop them.

I think we should change the title of this thread to “the Kade Chandler appreciation thread”

He’s not wrong. Peter bell has been a disaster for freo.
