Let the fun and games begin -
Assuming we are lucky with injuries and can tweak the game plan then we're as good a chance as any Swans will be traumatised, Pies approach will be countered, I can't where the Lions improvement will come from (although they do get the best player in the draft) and I have doubts about Freo. The doggies have defensive frailties, Richmond might surprise given the players they are trading in so they could improve I reckon it'll either be us or Geelong.
-
Geelong the best team in it this year. No question. They had plenty of luck along the way but so did we last year. I didn't think Dads Army could do it, thought their soft fixture would disadvantage them come September but their pressure game yesterday was off the scales. Swans were hopeless but I don't think any team could have lived with them. And Scott is a great coach as well as being very dislikeable
-
Lions coughed one up today against Richmond Top spot there for the taking
-
A KPF will make a difference for us. Definitely But I think getting properly fit and rediscovering or pressure and intensity will make a bigger difference
-
Bulldogs didn't recover after we belted them. The same will happen the Swans I reckon
-
What a damp squib Swans won't be a factor next year. Not after this shellacking. I'm not convinced by the pies or Lions It's us v the cats in 2023. I'm looking forward to it already
-
How funny would it be if the cats choked from here. I’m willing it to happen.
-
A flicker of hope. If they can snag another before half time it’ll give them some belief
-
Swans played their granny against us
-
Stengel has been an inspired recruit
-
For Christ sake swans. Pull your collective finger out. This is embarrassing
-
Great memories. Happy anniversary everyone.

We've played the Lions, Crows and North. With ourselves that's the likely top 4. The only other top 8 side we play for the rest of the year is the Doggies and they've had a soft fixture so far. They're a borderline finals team. Plenty of opportunity for us to improve our percentage If we avoid injuries and maintain half decent form we should win all our remaining games. Hopefully the Lions drop a game or 2 along the way (they still have North, Crows and Collingwood to play) The one player we can't replace is Harris. If we are to win it this year she will be to the fore. West has been a revelation and Purcell excellent. They have added much need grunt to our engine room. We're in good shape
-
Comprehensive win against an ordinary Carlton outfit. Healthy percentage boost. Good intensity. Harris and Purcell excellent. West very good. Paxy involved. Goldie rusty but will be better for the run Need more polish going instead 50 Go Dees
-
Needs to work on her goal kicking as well
-
Goldie very rusty
-
Great having a dominant KPF. If only we could find one for the mens team
-
Booming goal Harris. Superb kick from 50 meters. she'll enjoy that against her old mob
-
Probably not but I don't know. If I was in that situation I'd definitely like more time to respond
-
I thought Essendon were looking for an experienced coach?
-
24 hours seems like a very short timeframe to expect a response. Why the big hurry? But you would also think there are lines of communication if journalists want to contact AFL clubs with stories of such concern to their head coaches. I'm sure Clarkson and Fagan were contactable but also think you need to give longer than 24 hours All by the by now, the story is out there. I'm looking forward to hearing all the details
-
I feel very conflicted towards this grand final In the not too recent past I always watched the granny with mates or family, had the BBQ going, beers flowing. We were never too close to making it so didn't feel any sense of resentment towards the teams playing. I was able to watch neutrally Not the case this year. I know we were good enough to be there. I kinda begrudge both these teams. I don't think i can watch and enjoy as a neutral. Not this year
