Chook

He's not what he was, but he still draws heaps of attention and frees up his team mates in the Sydney forward line.

I always thought it rhymed with "ruck".

As if we haven't already learned that lesson.

Why would he? He'd have to know something about Brisbane or St Kilda first.

St Kilda is a very dangerous side right now. I'm glad we don't have to play them again this year.

My word what a kick-in from Daniel Rich.

Possible ACL to Hipwood. Awful for Brisbane, but also good news for any football sides who are hoping to compete against Brisbane this year for a Premiership (I hear this may include Melbourne). Yes I am a terrible person.

I think the coaches genuinely were not sure until last Saturday afternoon what our best forward line mix was. I reckon they knew that if we were going to go with 2 talls, it would very likely be Brown and McDonald; but they also thought "well we've done it both ways this year, so let's persist with the one tall for at least one more week even though it didn't look great against Essendon." Now they know we are better with the 2 talls, and they've known for a while that Brown will be that 2nd tall once his body is ready, which it now is.

The dogs are a fair sight better this year than in 2018. I'd fancy we're better this year too, but not by a massive amount given 2018 was a fair old year for us.

No change for the next 2-3 months hopefully.

We're the real deal people. Just accept it.

Brown + McDonald is like brownies and McDonald's - a winning combo.

Dees will come out firing after half time with that bs goal on the siren. We're in the box seat ladies and gentlemen.

How were the commentators surprised that was 50 to Pickett? Mark was paid, then tackle applied after the mark. Exactly the same situation as the Fritsch situation, but the commentators didn't say boo about that. Bizarre.

. Wrong thread.

Petty immense. Nasher, this might be the night I say I was wrong.

I'd love for Port to stop kicking bombs from outside 50 and bizarre snaps from ground level please.

We're in Brisbane 2nd half beast mode right now.

Can someone pour an entire jar of grippo on ANB's hands please.

The demons haven't lost to anyone that matters this year. People are quick to forget that.

Neal-Bullen playing terribly. Cost us probably 2 goals already (one conceded, one opportunity flubbed).

What on Earth is Hinkley doing with Aliir? Imagine us playing Steven May in the ruck around the ground.

UMP: Stand!!! Powell-Pepper: Moves 5 steps corridor side.

Kozzy breaks the drought. We're back in town baby!

Brown doubters sit down. He has been so important for us structurally. Harrisson Petty's best game every probably.
