GAMEDAY: Rd 03 vs Essendon
Amazing tackle on Stringer by Sparrow there. People say he's the only one who can stop Trac at training. You'd need to be to stop Stringer on the burst out of a stoppage.

Harmes has been great this quarter.

GAMEDAY: Rd 03 vs Essendon
One of the bad habits I've seen us get into this year (practice matches and the 3 home and away matches) is what I'm calling "4th quarter GF mode" where we start lairising and not treating our opponents with respect in the contest. Petracca has no right to think he can bullock out of every single contest, for example. Add to that Kozzie and Spargo are giving us absolutely nothing, as are a few others, and no wonder we played a terrible quarter. Our structures and our rock solid backline (lead by May, who got mad at Tomlinson for punching the ball out rather than marking it, to give you an idea of the spot-on headspace he is in) is still top notch, but our individuals are making stupid decisions borne out of ego or plain poor form I reckon.

GAMEDAY: Rd 03 vs Essendon
Our level this quarter has dropped about 5 notches. We always seem to play a terrible quarter in home and away games. Sparrow goes BANG!

I love ya Trac but it's no crime to just get rid of it quickly sometimes.

GAMEDAY: Rd 03 vs Essendon
Missed a heap of opportunities, but we're clearly the better side and a whalloping is on the cards if we can clean up our finishing.

McDonald getting outmarked in every contest is very annoying.
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 03 vs Essendon
McDonald needed to kick that one - Steward has had him in his back pocket all quarter.

GAMEDAY: Rd 03 vs Essendon
FFS should be 5 goals up by now wind or no wind.

GAMEDAY: Rd 03 vs Essendon
Stewart is killing McDonald.

GAMEDAY: Rd 03 vs Essendon
We're getting outmarked in our forwardline which is frustrating. This is why Ben Brown is so good - you can't outmark him.

The way Jackson moves is just sex on legs.
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 03 vs Essendon
Jackson just takes the pizz. Beats like 5 players in the air and is the first player to grab the crumb when there are smalls in the vicinity too. Amazing.

If McDonald plays a bad game tonight and Wiedeman plays a good one, then selection next week gets very interesting.

Go Wiedo go!!! Another four and you've got a case!

GAMEDAY: Rd 03 vs Essendon
Gonna have trouble scoring tonight I reckon.

GAMEDAY: Rd 03 vs Essendon
Great little piece on John Stanaway on the TV (7). One of the positives of watching from home.

GAMEDAY: Rd 03 vs Essendon
Very excited to see what Wiedo can do tonight. Will he play Brown's role, or TMacs with TMac playing Brown's instead?

GAMEDAY: Rd 03 vs Essendon
Sorry folks - I've given this one a miss. Everyone I was going to go with bailed, and then I had to work an 11 hour day, and have to back up to watch the women tomorrow. Gonna watch this one from the safety of my bed with some leftover carrot cake.

He's been ahead of Mitch Brown in the queue for years.

NON-MFC: Round 3, 2022
Anyone else more and more impressed with Nathan Jones' special commentary every game he commentates. Quality analysis with no ego or head-wobble, nothing more nothing less.

POSTGAME: Rd 02 vs Gold Coast
That was a surprisingly honest response from him. Most coaches would say something about not taking our chances, but Goody was just flat "nah, we were in front - why score?" I liked it!
-
NON-MFC: Round 2, 2022
Probably the two other legit premiership contenders, and rightly so.
