Past the 1st quarter yes, but those d50 stoppage goals at the start of the game was very weak. All of May, Lever and TMAC were playing behind their man and it led to easy goals. Brissy scored 4/4 goals from stoppage in the first quarter, all just outside d50 pretty much.

Not just fatigue related, the defence was quite leaky in the first, Rick says as much here

I liked Lever's post match interview, took full responsibility as the leader. They tooled us from stoppage outside d50 last year, they then replicated the same strategy again. Very disappointing. We were certainly tired but the midfield issues were present against the Power and Crows. We may get belted by Carlton if we cannot fix our clearance game. Frankly, West Coast have been showing good work around stoppages and if we don't pull our pants up they might beat us for inside 50s and clearances too.

Hope we throw the sink at McLuggage or Florent, desperately need extra class in that mid 20s age bracket

If he's doing similar work to JVR it might indicate competitiveness and a good leap, good traits to have coming into his draft year

Our recruiters must again be lauded if we have our two top picks playing regular minutes for the year. Fingers crossed Kolt gets his debut.

Our win v Port looks very good after tonight. We were lucky not to come up against JHF, he is a very important player for them.

Nik Cox is a major spud

Only because we don't have much young mid talent pushing for spots. That's why people wanted Rivers to play in the middle, but with Windsor that voice has died down.

Sick of seeing our own supporters taking shots at Kozzy. Time to back him in. Fingers crossed we make a successful challenge.

I've always called Langdon, the Flying Dutchman. I have no idea if he's Dutch but he has some dutch vibes about him.

Credit to Billings, has not been great tonight but that the effort and persistence is there

Yep, clear as day. Left the ground, tucked the elbow to protect himself and not his opponent, head high contact + prior history. 2-4 for him.

I don't think Adelaide will turn it around against us and we will take full advantage. Their defense looks shaky and they are struggling to rebound effectively at all, we will cut them up rebounding and in center clearance. Dees by +30.

I think it would be a waste to not have him play some on ball minutes. Probably shouldn't be now, but in the next 2 years for sure.

6 ANB 5 Gawn 4 Viney 3 Oliver 2 Rivers 1 Chandler - career high 20 touches, worked super hard all day and deserves a mention

Gutsy win, love this team

Mature play from Taj and Windsor

Absolute belter from Max

We aren't playing well but we can pinch a win here

I hope we see Tom Sparrow on the ball

What a machine!!

Lazy tackle Howes

WOW Langdon, two tackles!!

Replay showed a nasty ankle twist (on the non strapped knee)
