Ryan had 3 kicks 5 hand passes 1 tackle 1 goal for the day and the goal wasn't in the 3rd quarter. It's gonna be hard to limit him more than that. Rioli did kick 3.2 from 6 kicks which was a damaging return. One goal was in the 3rd. Maybe like BT you can't tell them apart? -
That is so good to see Nathan enjoying the positive times after so much hardship. He really presented well too - relaxed, modest and happy.

The info has been easy to find on the club site for days. I linked to over the weekend here. You've got your personalised email 40 hours before you have to register. That seems like enough time to prepare. I'm not sure what you're complaining about?

OMac's kicking has been very good.

Better to be on the snow in Victoria than the ice in WA

Could be mind games to mess with our defensive set up too

I've bought GF guarantee for at least the last 10-15 years : )

I couldn't go to the semi and had to watch on TV which is very limiting. Who was on Gunston BRFE? It's a bit similar and he did get away so we may be looking to change that up.

I just don't see Tyson's game that way at all in recent weeks. He wins contested ball and tries hard to give a creative handball when tackled not just dump it. He's been able to get this hands free and has not been caught holding the ball like he was earlier in the year. He didn't get much of it vs Hawthorn but I don't know if he had a role. I can see the argument for J.Smith and Tyson is on the fringe. I didn't think we played all that well vs Hawthorn and change may be warranted. I like JKH's recent work but he could only come in for Tyson too and I only see a marginal difference. There's no one else in the frame for consideration. No change is a quite possible. It is good we won the VFL PF, it would be good to win that flag and it gives those players another hit out ahead of the AFL GF if we can make it.

Wonder how many AFL emergencies we'll take to Perth and whether we'll fly them back for the VFL GF?

We were good against North in atrocious conditions
-
He was off the boil against the Cats no doubt. But he got involved in heaps of plays. I know he has the ability to convert those opportunities. I feel he's on the verge of explosion.
-
He's due.
That's a reasonable analysis of his game. He was off. But he created heaps of opportunities in a difficult role and he does have the natural ability to execute. I think like Goodwin said about the team after the Geelong loss - we're so close to putting it all together. If Petracca executes on his opportunities and he kicks 6 and is the match winner. It is possible for him like no-one else. Have patience I think he might explode soon.
Wow post about changes put in changes thread
I really don't think that @Jaded thinking about planning ahead and maybe saving some money is going to affect the team's preparation. Sounds like she's going if we make it and good for her. She's probably not in the 22 though. FFS.

ANB was very good. Really set the tone early by causing Geelong to fumble the ball and strong legal tackles. Yes he had a trademark missed goal but he wasn't Robinson Crusoe and his other two misses were harder shots. He's a smart player. Stewart was going for exactly the same pass as 2 mins before and Alex read the play beautifully and chopped it off. That goal was fine icing. He's a vital cog - I've come to appreciate that.
Thread gives almost as much as the Is Goodwin the guy one
