Essendon can;t pierce our defensive set-up. This game is very much on our terms. Just got to make it count

Nice kick Nibbler

I can't take Port seriously. Massive choke coming up by the looks of it.

Saturday afternoon. My favorite time slot. Afternoon at the G, a few beers afterwards and home in time for dinner

I want to see us set the tone for the rest of the season tonight. Pressure and intensity. Only area of concern for me is our forward set-up. We have to settle on a structure and focus on perfecting it through to finals. Essendon will be no push-overs. They're confidence is high. Delighted to have Viney back. He embodies the Dees spirit and fight. I don't believe we will deliver another lackluster performance while he is on the field. We'll respond to the Collingwood defeat with a proper performance tonight. Dees win by 30 points.

No dusty magic tonight. All round horror show from the Tiges. Given their percentage they need to win all their games from here to get Top 4. Can't see it happening. Hoping they disintegrate from here.

Richmond are terrible tonight. Worst i've seen them play for awhile.

Why are they waiting for Moderna. Have they concerns with Pfizer?

If we see Daw it means some of our KP players are either injured or badly out of form. That being the case I hope we don't see him

Brayshaw is the second worst. BT is the worst.

Would dearly love to smash the dons.

The right call and delighted to see Viney back in the team. Back to the early season set-up with the extra small and i won't be surprised if this is the set-up for the rest of the season. BB and the Weid will have to bang the door down and most likely route back into the team will be if TMAC or Fritsch are injured or out of form.

Sorry. i'm not down with this at all. may as well bring Neita out of retirement and make him medical sub. it's the same argument. The best 23 get selected. If Jonesy makes the cut good on him. But no way we put him ahead of team success

Huge game at the Gabba tonight. Hoping the Lions can get it done. Tough game for the dogs v the eagles. I reckon home ground advantage swings it. We need to account for the dons. If we do there's a good chance we're 2 games clear by the end of the round

With rest i hope we can shake off the collingwood disappointment and reassert ourselves. We've responded well to challenges this year so i expect the win but if we're complacent or off the pace we're in trouble. We're 11-2. I still believe. 4-5 goal win for the Dees.

If Gold Coast offered pick 3 for the Weid i would snap their hand off

That list doesn't exactly whet the appetite. We can do much better

Jeez. thats terrible but tbh i'm not surprised. He looks completely bereft. If the pressure to perform is having this impact then I’d suggest he has a good think about what’s best for him going forward, consult with those he trusts and consider whether AFL is worth it. Mental health and wellbeing are more important than a footy career. AFL players have to perform to a certain standard. That’s just the fact of it. If the pressure to perform is impacting health then it may be best to seek a less stressful career. Life is too short.

Bombers are in very good form. We'll need to bring our A game or close, to win next weekend. Not an easy game by any means

Nick Hind can play. smart piece of trading there. Decent game

Better for us if Carlton win this. We have GWS in a couple of weeks so best they're well out of the 8 and don't have much to play for.

Phenomenal torp from Greene. And had meters to spare

Everything that can be tried has been tried. Draft picks and coaches have come and gone. Can’t keep throwing good money after bad. I reckon once the current HQ administration are gone the decision will be made.

Agree. An under rated player for sure I hope we're putting in the ground work with Ben King's manager as well.

The Suns are a pointless ego trip for AFL HQ. Never played finals, can't keep players, losing culture, no supporters. The outlook is grim. The NRL struggle to keep the titans viable so what makes the AFL think they can make a go of the Suns. This ends in one of two ways. The Tasmanian Suns or disbandment
