Salem looking comfortable so far

perfect start. good composure JJ

Their list is in a dreadful state. They should go to the draft and use those picks on 2 good young players not bundle for one.

What’s a typical Melbourne supporter

I thought the dogs would go on a run but way too many problems in their game at the moment. Can;t take marks inside 50, Naughton off-form, delivery ordinary to start with, so not getting value for the amount of possession they get. Defensively too easy to score against. They've a 50/50 proposition at best to make finals i reckon

Our form hasn't been great. The Swans record at the G is very good It'll be a tough tight arm-wrestle in the wet I'm back our boys in because they've been brilliant when we've needed a response Dees by 7 but jeez could go either way

Crazy odds. I'm tempted to back the Swans

Jeez. all kicked off here Smith is in real trouble. he'll miss multiple games for that

De Koning looks a decent defender

horror mistake Daniels. Dogs putrid so far

shocking miss Naughton

I hate other clubs in the tribal footy sense of the word particularly west coast

Some ripper games this weekend The dogs to get the better of the the Cats We'll beat the Swans in a tight tussle Freo have their tails up after accounting for us last week and will beat the Lions. Suits us better if they do as well

I should have been clearer. its been a long time sine when made 5 non-covid enforced changes

Been a long time since we made 5 changes but other than Thommo for May, the incomers all improve the side

Fair summation Surprised we are only 17th in the comp for pressure applied

Looks a good player. Only 21 so great age profile. Hopefully she can develop in a dominant KPD for us Carlton can't hold onto their players at all. There must be something wrong with the culture there.

Personally i'm glad Buddy isn't playing. No match-up with May out. He has an x-factor and quite capable of kicking 3-4 goals against us so our chances of winning are 10-15% better with him suspended.

Reckon Buddy's counsel took a leaf of this Jackies Chiles book

what a pantomime the swans should be penalised for bringing a vexatious claim and wasting everyone's time

Her old man is a Port champion. She's Port Adeliade through and through. I don't think she leaves the Crows if Port were just another club Money is a factor no question but they have already won 3 premierships. Perhaps the challenge of helping establish a new club would appeal

Sydney must have some basis for the appeal (no idea what it is mind). Why else would they spend the time and energy on a lost cause. And it disrupts/distracts them from their preparations for the game. Very strange

And hopefully Adelaide lose more players. Erin Phillips a start but i would like to see one of Marinoff or Hatchard leave. There was talk of Hatchard to Port but its gone quiet. Marinoff's family are Port supporters

Pies nearly choked but Carlton were due a tight loss
