I love seeing West Coast getting belted. High on my wish list is to see the Dees smash them by 100 points. At Optus

West Coast capitulation coming up

Surely someone at AFL house is asking questions. Every 50/50 call and plenty of bogus frees go their way. Every week

#freekickdoggies going strong as ever

Mr punchable head, Taylor Walker, has been in very good form since he returned this season

Funny reaction form the Crows player to that BS free paid to the dogs (the dogs player ducked his head into the tackle). The arms went out for a split second before he realised what he was doing. Quickly put the arms back down again

I don't care as long as Kayo continue to show all the games

Last nights game was a disappointment. Hopefully Freo and Carlton is better. I'm interested to see how both these teams perform now that expectation levels are starting to rise

Is Van Rooyen far off a game? Probably too early and needs more time to develop. Tmac isn't getting any younger and the Weid hasn't nailed down a spot so there's an obvious pathway to the senior team for him if he's good enough.

Do the Western Sydney locals play Aussie Rules? There doesn't appear to be any grassroots support and without that there is no point in having an AFL team. Same with Gold Coast. I reckon the AFL would be better off putting money into the local footy community in Western Sydney to create a base. Grow the game that way rather than having an AFL team with no supporters As an expansion team the Giants have been pretty good. They've played a decent brand, been mostly hard at it and were close for a couple of years. Their senior players are letting them down at the moment. Kelly needs to be cut loose and Coniglio has regressed badly. Greene is a fantastic player but has big discipline issues. They need to improve their list to challenge again but they are not a lost cause. They have built up a good rivalry with the Swans as well. Cameron has been a good coach but has outstayed his welcome. They need a new coach with a fresh approach. Will make a difference. And a trivial/not trivial point. They need to change their colors. That orange strip looks terrible

Tom green is a beast. I’d take him. Their best player after the angelic Toby.

GWS are going to fold like a cheap suit

Higgins loves himself

St Kilda have lifted this quarter. Pressure gauge well up

rubbish free kick. what dissent

So i take it the whole "those named in the starting 18 will play" rule is just a myth after all

How many 50's will the terrible Toby give away tonight? He's a slow learner so i reckon 5 or so.

Good luck to Luke Dunstan TMac was fantastic for us last year but can;t have any complaints about his omission. Hopefully he can find some form in the VFL and be ready to return should the Weid underwhelm (not an outside possibility)

The young ruckman, Flynn, that played for GWS last week was very good. Played better than Preuss ever has. If it was my choice i'd play Flynn again

Should be a good game tonight. I reckon the return of Toby will ignite the Giants and bring St Kilda back down to earth. The sainters have been getting a bit ahead of themselves

Unfortunate name. Pass

Although named in the 18 together, i can't see TMac, BB and the Weid all playing. They've played together once, against Carlton last year i think it was. It was not considered a success by the brains trust and was not tried again My guess is: BB for TMac (50/50 call. could well be the Weid) Dunstan for Viney. I though it was for this exact scenario that Dunstan was brought in. Like for like replacement Smith for Lever

What I dearly hope to see some day In: Sanity Out: BS health and safety protocols

TMac or the Weid. I reckon we need a poll on this vital question

I’ve subscribed to this YouTuber. Reckon he’ll get great mileage out of essington this year
