Roost it far

Probably rest one of Langford or Lindsay and bring in Laurie for a 4 quarter game. I think Viney should wait till after the bye and Jefferson needs to keep doing what he’s doing at Casey. I’d like to see Howes stay in as he was more than solid. Adam’s and Culley are the other 2 I’d like to see get some games. Play like that every week and we’re a top 4 team. My worry now becomes can the players keep doing that now that finals are so unlikely. One more loss could see us just drop our heads enough to lose more than we win. Disappointing season considering just how well we can play and how with just a few tweaks we’re Premiership material. Yesterday: reminded me of those days you’d bang your rolled up record on to the back of the wooden bench seat in front of you. Had about a dozen of those moments yesterday.

That one hurt. Fritsch playing on needlessly twice hurt, a couple of should haves that missed hurt. Today was painful. Season over and the players knew it. I'm expecting a fairly tiresome end to a disappointing season.

Viney can wait till post bye. It’s time to play the kids, go for the kicks and not worry about results It’s all about 2026

It’s time a few coaches spoke openly about the standard of umpiring. It’s embarrassing and ruins games. I rarely account for umpiring and still believe we lost that game with a handful of bad decisions but geez they were awful today.

His coaching today was excellent. We lacked the polish and composure, that’s why we lost, that and the umpires. I’d say MaCrae, everyone’s darling was outcoached today.

That’s absurd

In other news I lost my second partner that I won against Brissie. Kind of relieved.

They have to as do the media. The AFL control the narrative

Just a little bit of composure. The 50 to Daicos, the rushed kick by Oliver, I can’t go on because today hurt.

100%

We really should have won that, the better side lost today.umpiring was atrocious. It simply has to be fixed. It’s so amateurish to have umpiring ruining great games.

I’m absolutely beside myself as is the household. The levels of stress watching this team are going to kill me one day.

He’s worked his backside off and hasn’t had any decent delivery. Jefferson would be crying in his mums arms by now.

Keep doing what we’re doing, umpires stay out of it and kick the goals. Similar to the Brisbane game, reckon we’ll wear them out. Go Dee’s

Lock in Kozz for whatever it costs and then go all guns blazing at Jackson.

A win for the ages. Today we’ll show the competition why they don’t want us in the finals. Dees by 21, JVR to take his first steps to form and Petracca to be BOG.

I think he’s a mid who replaces Viney. I was actually thinking they might give him a [censored] down role on one of 4 pies. I guess we’ll never know if that worked. In my universe he made life so tough for Josh Daicos that Josh tapped out with 6 possessions late in the third. Culley went on to kick 3 final quarter goals and we won by 42 points. I then took my winnings and went to dinner before heading home to watch it all again in my home theatre prior to flying off to Italy till after the bye.

I imagine Tholstrup will be the sub. What’s Howes going to be doing?

Who says he wants to be a Docker? There’s some who believe that and you could just as easily write a story headlined “Koz loves the Dee’s and staying put for the foreseeable future”

Agreed, he plays to hurt Gawn. They’ll be looking at the weather as well I’d say. Extra talks on a cold, rainy day probably aren’t the go.

That would explain Culley.

I’d like to see Culley get 4 quarters with Sharp as the sub JVR for AJ, he’s ahead of Jeffo because he can cover Max

No wonder people think Melbourne supporters are wnakers.

You got to the truth in the end.
