*Very* forunate. I’d go as far as to say: tremendously lumky

Richo: “you’ve gotta pay that”. yep, hence why forwards will keep ducking.

We thank you for your sacrifice, WCW. Go Dees.

Swing tackle?

Play on?

If we bring our first 4 minutes we’ll win. (I’m trying to be funny but it’s only Wednesday)

Yep - I remember a game vs Richmond back in 2019 (ugggh) where they beat us comfortably, but Melky kicked 4 - brought the Harlem Globetrotters that day - very strong. Wish he could be more consistent - from game to game, and within games. Let’s be honest, he’s got game!

Minus a broke leg, I guess…but yeah, looks fairly…free spirited…

Hardwick: “we know the kind of football that beats Melbourne, we just needed to execute it for longer” this is what worries me - sides have worked our main strategy out and we don’t have enough different ways to play…and don’t choke sides out like we used to… don’t get me wrong, I’m enjoying watching our team play strong footy these days, but we’re not our once irresistible selves…

How TF was that holding the ball on Chandler. I reckon I could do a better job umpiring and I can barely run around the block.

It’s my pet hate for non calls - reward the tackler. Otherwise, the tackling team sacrifices a player while the other team gets the overlap. It’s not good enough. Reward the tackler. In other news, we’re looking very ordinary. No magic any more.

Some very blatant one sided umpiring at the moment.

An 'awakening fisting' - owwww...

Bagging Gawn: peak MFCSS.

Look, I get the feels, but you clearly don’t remember that season well.

Hi guys, I’d love some discussion and enlightenment on the historical practice of moving backs into the forward line, and how often it works. Not just with the Dees necessarily…have there been many well known examples where a trained, specialist defender has completely transformed their career into a key forward? Obviously in recent times for the Dees we’ve seen Tmac, and lately Petty (although did he play forward pre AFL?) It must be hard to switch… Thanks!

The Pies are pretty good I have to say. Their awareness of each other’s positioning, smarts, and skills… Tigers are just applying enough pressure to cause them to rush goal kicking - plus some lucky moments…

Constant pressure…that’s the secret to life. I mean, AFL…

Swans supporters are some of the worst at the moment. Last two games I attended weren't great experiences, one of their supporters heckled me pretty bad on the way home, thought seriously about having a go at him. Agree it would be very satisfying to thrash them.

I'd be impressed if anyone tipped that...or, assuming hallucinatory episode prior to game...

And Kane Cornes misrepresenting it and launching a controversial narrative.

Brisbane hillbillies confused that they’re actually in West Virginia.

It’s just tripped the fuse

Can’t get over Oliver. Wowsers. If he lifts and a few others, look out. But wow. Petty very fumbly tonight. Bowey, Spargs good. Grundy getting back into it. Viney showing glimpses. Lever pretty dang good again. Need to bring it Q3.
