Too many cooks

tough conditions this will be an arm wrestle

not sure what the point of that goal umpire is

poor handball from bont there a rare occurrence

good start to this game.

was he aiming for the posts or putting it to the top of square?

brilliant field kick logan morris

the free was BS rule or not. the bont tried to win the ball fairly on the ground and hipwood arrived late tripped over him

small crowd, poor game thursday night football is a load of [censored]

I'll be there with the kids on sat night cheering him on. He deserves to be recognised and applauded by all dees supporters for what he produced for this club phenomenal player in his prime. absolute beast. makes it all the harder to watch his recent struggles. he has not been the clarry we all know and love. Not sure what the future holds for him but no matter what happens from here he will be immortalised in eternity as a champion of the club

Reality is we are nowhere near finals contention second year in a row. and after signing players on long term contracts that is not where we expected to be there are positives for sure. some great young players, kossie and a top notch talent picker means we can rebuild relatively quickly but we have botched our list management i reckon and we need to make big calls on some big players this off season to get us back contending again big off season for the club

Punch and Judy thread

Port kicking themselves out of this game i hope they lose

grundy played well. superb tap to advantage to set up the winning goal

patience people he's not setting the world alight, but he has time yet let's see how he looks after another preseason before writing him off

his skills are clean and sharp and he uses the ball very well great pick for us

Slow first half but much improved in the second. Loved melks game. Pure class Hopefully we can take a lot of confidence from today and stuff Carlton next week

Crowd 36,000. Well done dees faithful

Unselfish fritsch

Big improvement in i50 delivery in the second half

Just as well larkey and ldu aren’t playing

The maxy special

Appalling skills all round

Making jack darling look like Wayne carey

Midfield not working hard enough and defensively weak
