can't think of a better selling point to an 18-year-old young lad.

All the fanboys in the media jumping off the pies at breakneck speed. And we really need to do the world a favour and beat Carlton on Saturday because all the fanboys are jumping onto them.

I reckon he'll win the coaches award now that Daicos is injured. Not sure about the Brownlow. Very hard to predict.

Lisfranc does not make sense based on webbers explanation. Reckon Sam Edmunds has got it wrong

He’s made a huge difference to our forward setup. If he’s fit he plays. No question about that.

3 dangerous opponents to finish the H&A season. We’ll do well to win all 3 but I reckon port and lions will drop games as well. I’m confident we’ll finish second.

The Crows have an excellent record against top 4 teams this year. Lions watch out. Won't surprise me if they lose. At worst I can't see the Lions picking up any percentage, if anything they'll lose percentage this week.

I have to say, if Reid has said he won't go to the Eagles, it doesn't reflect well on him. I don't like young players dictating terms like this, generational talent or not. As much as I dislike the Eagles, they are a very good club, strong history of success, plenty of resources and will always attract the best WA talent. Chris Judd made his name there and won a flag before returning to Victoria. I know they've badly run presently but they'll sort themselves out given the resources at their disposal. Reid should be grateful for the opportunity to get drafted and go to the club that picks him.

He’s been outstanding since Clarry went down. Bleeds red and blue, heart and soul player.

would have preferred a Lions loss but a close win next best outcome I'll be back on the death riding bandwagon next week. Go Eagles

grand stand finish coming up

Cracking mark Amiss. brilliant effort

Freo haven't disappointed me much this year and looks like they won't disappoint today either.

all teams get injuries. Port are shorthanded at the moment and pies just lost Daicos. we'll adapt and win the flag anyways

Back to the drawing board. Hopefully Petty recovers quickly and gets back for finals fritsch back will be a big help. Love BB but not sure he has it in him any more.

Trac Gawn Viney Chandler Gus ANB

Really. I thought he was poor

Deathride suspended today. A Lions loss leaving us in second place more important than draft position. Normal service to return next week.

A win is a win is a win. Dreadful start but re-set well and ran out easy winners in the end. Viney, Kozzy, Chandler Trac all very good. JJ and Harmes didn’t do their cause any favors. Petty’s injury the big concern. Doesn’t look good and appears he’ll have another stint on the sidelines. We’ll just have to make do as best we can and hope he can recover quickly. Go Dees

We have our best players on the interchange bench. the game is won. No point risking further injury

Petty smiling in the dugout. Good sign i hope

Deathride suspended today. I'll be shouting for Freo

We'll just have to make do while Petty recovers. Fritsch coming back helps a lot. Grundy and Smith also options

Not McKays fault. One of those things unfortunately.

A good omen perhaps
