Crows season is petering out. They have injuries and are out of form, ripe for the picking! Tex is always a handful if he gets supply. Rankine was superb early in the season. Has come off the boil but needs minding. Jordan Dawson been very good as well. It won't be a walk in the park for us but with Max back in form, Trac on fire and Viney rampaging we'll get the job done. 25-point win coming up. Please lower the eyes and hit those I50 targets boys. Children go free today so I'm heading along with the brother-in-law and a gaggle of kids to cheer on the red and blue. Go Dees

Jamie Elliot is clutch.

Stay calm death riders. the swans got this.

The Eagles did trade pick 2 last year. I wouldn't be surprised if they tried to convert pick 1 into a couple of top 10 picks. Their list is in shocking state and badly needs to be refreshed. Whether we would want to spend all out capital on one player i'm not sure. Reckon we would be better off taking our picks to the draft.

Buddys still got it.

Swans have settled and are well on top.

I think the Dees are the real but i hate Geelong so i'm barracking for the Lions.

The head says a cats win best for the Dees as we're still a chance for 3rd, possibly 2nd. but I can't barrack for a cats win. i just can't bring myself to do it.

The pick 3 dream has officially died. but pick 4 is still a real chance so... Go Swannies!

Tiges with all the momentum. Hawks badly need a goal here

How is Brodie looking up forward?

Hawks playing very well. Mitchell is doing a great job with them.

Hard to believe how far the Eagles have fallen. I thoroughly dislike the club and its supporters, so no tears shed here. The only downside is they are so bad i don't think they're much hope of beating Freo which could impact the deathride.

I haven't given up on pick 3 just yet. Go Hawks

If they are really interested in making the fixture fairer why not ensure teams alternate between home and away every second year. why do we have to play Geelong and west coast at their home grounds every year. Makes no sense from a fairness standpoint

Great goal Oskar

bailey smith misses everything from 20 meters. horrendous set shot

Langford and Wright are a very good double act.

Petty has been injury prone this year and his form has been patchy. If tommo takes his opportunity this weekend I doubt he’ll get dropped again. You never know how things will play out. Tommo’s injury in 21 opened the door for petty who took his opportunity brilliantly. Who’s to say tommo won’t do the same thing now?

I wish the Matildas the best of luck for the rest of the tournament but tonight I'll be cheering on the girls in green.

We should make him an offer commensurate with his value to us. I don't want to lose him but I think he's worth more to rival clubs where he'll be best 22. He's borderline best 22 for us and is relying on injuries to get regular games. Personally, I think he should go to another club to fulfil his career. He deserves to I reckon.

Sarah black needs to raise her game.

I reckon there's a 5% chance he gets traded this year. A small chance but still a chance.

Brodie is good enough to be a No 1 ruck somewhere else. The plan/experiment as sold to him doesn't appear to be working out. It might yet. There are still 6 H&A games and a finals series to go. He may decide that he is ok playing second fiddle to Max for a couple of seasons. I think all parties entered into this arrangement with the best of intentions. If its not working nobody would blame Brodie for asking for a trade. As a club we have a proven track record of treating players fairly. I reckon we would accommodate his request. We'll come up with an alternative plan for Maxy's successor.

footy fans are very ungrateful
