Thank you tiges for breathing some life back into this thread. Hopefully Freo's mini revival is over and we can all start enjoying our death riding again.

Is that the first goal the Nank has ever scored. Its a good omen. Reckon it the tiges night.

the hometown umpiring is getting ridiculous.

Good result for us. Longer term, Hawks have drafted well and looks like Mitchell is a good coach. They won't be cellar dwellers for long which is a pity cos i really dislike the Hawks and would love to see them languish for decade or more.

Hawks playing very well. doubt they can keep this going for 4 quarters. They have typically tired and fell away in the 3rd quarter of games against good teams this season.

The pies have been playing their high-octane game style for about 18 months or so now which is about how long the competition take to figure out how to combat it. They are also showing signs of tiredness (understandable given the demands of playing their style) and although winning games are not as convincing as they were. They remind me a little of us this time last year, winning games unconvincingly. As we know the wheels came off for us. I think the same will happen to the pies. I’m convinced we’re going to beat them on Monday.

I like long weekends except when i have to wait until Monday for a dees game.

Port are a decent outfit. Definitely in the mix. Butters and Rozee quality mids. JHR will be a beast.

It's karma the doggies getting stiffed by the umps

Looked a perfect shepard to me. Bad call

JHF is a very good player

push in the shoulder, push in the back. its a free either way should have been a HTB call against Alir there

push in the back paid. I agree with it but so many aren't paid. no consistency in application

fast start to this game

Unfortunate Clarry can't play but them's the breaks. We'll just have to go with Plan B. Pies aren't in great form so no reason to think we can't win it without him. Trac will lead the way again just like he did against Carlton. 20 point win coming up. go Dees.

Just saw a completed pass. A rarity this quarter

The death riding thread was good fun there for a while. Would love if freo fell back in a hole

I like having a Thursday night game to watch.

Tough loss for North but they have plenty of talent to work with. They've drafted very well.

Cracking game

Bad bad miss sheezel. all the time in the world to run it in or pass it off

I'd prefer if half their team was injured or suspended.

Good game this. See sawing back and forth.

Bombers have woken up unfortunately.

We should look at it as a dress rehearsal for September 30
