Collingwood are very good at losing in the finals, team with the most 2nd place medals by a long stretch (was it 27?)

You seem pretty bullish on Freo. I still think they can miss finals, and for our draft pick sake I hope they do.

So we find ourselves mid-way through the season (how time flies!). To me this season has been particularly hard to identify the real contenders from the pretenders. What does DL think? Are Collingwood, PA and Brisbane the only solid candidates so far? Are we closer to the contenders or the pretenders based on current form? Looking forward to KB game, I can't help but feel we are a chance.

Probably without Lynch Freo may be favourites then. But of course I do hope they can beat them dockers.

Is Tom Lynch back next week?

How can you not push Bolton out of bounds with 5 seconds to go? Talk about footy smarts.

At least they jumped Freo?

Same applies to Brisbane 🤣🤣

The umpires and Bulldogs not kicking straight kept the Cats in this game.

GCS must be regretting letting the mediocre Freo beat them in Adelaide.

The [censored] broadcasters are part of the whole system with the AFL. They try and avoid putting the replays for all those dodgy decisions by the umpires.

I will soon have my break by sitting on a plane for 14 hours.. Still deciding if I am going to stay up to watch the KB game (it'll be at 11 pm first bounce for me).

He looked like it, will be missed next week

Swap Brayshaw and McVee? Angus is not clean at all with ball, rather use him in the half back.

Almost as bad as the Essendon and Freo games, but at least 4 points. Need a massive lift up against Collingwood.

Famous words by our premiership coach.. Learnings... 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

May - 6 Trac - 5 Lever - 4 Sparrow - 3 Bowey - 2 Max - 1 Apologies to JVR, Fritsch and McVee

Chandler needs a break. But I am very worried about Kozzies lack of impact with pressure in our fwd 50. I'd expect him to generate HTB calls when he is 2 metres away from a under duress Carlton defender.

Yep, can't remember how many times Spargo or Chandler have to contest the ball with guys 15 - 20 cm taller than them. Very stupid set up IMO.

Noooo Bowey, one of our best on the ground 🥲

I will be fuming if we have a similar situation like last year when we rushed Max to play against Geelong.😡

Worse, very mundane. What strikes me the most is how quiet the crowd is... Doesn't look like a Friday night game crowd.

Do we know his username on DL?

I don't like when people just focus on the scoreboard or the ladder. As you have said Jaded, we look terrible against a subpar team in Carlton.

Ala 2022 🤢🤢
