Interesting article! Of course there should be some incentive for the boys, but it feels a bit disingenuous to give the boys the same $250,000 as the girls when the money means so much more (and goes so much further for the improvement of) the girls comp!

All the best Kye Turner, we barely knew ye.

Yeah we've looked a bit off at points. And I really was expecting more of a showing from North

Great grab from Purcell! Shame it didn't end in a goal

That was head high on Goldie, not holding the ball!

Good work by Mackin and Gary defending there

Cracking start to the quarter! Loving Heater's lockdown on Garner, been going well. Good to see Chaplin back on the ground too, phew

The commentators really keep mentioning the breeze in this quarter, as if we aren't putting in the effort too to get this momentum swing and lead 🙄

Love a skipper goal!

Good couple of minutes from Chaplin, especially that smother. Hope she's only got a bad bruise rather than anything more serious with the ribs

So nice to have Paxy back!

Here we go!! Carn the mighty Dees! ❤💙

Omg, the game is still so far away 😴

Thanks WCW! 💖 Bit gutted since I've been planning to attend Round 8 since Round 1! But convalescence on a couch with our girls playing hard against a top side is the next best option. Although my cheering won't help my throat 😂

If anyone wants my ticket (or just can scan in to inflate attendance numbers) then please DM me! I was planning on travelling to Melbourne for this Sat but have ended up sick... Might be preaching to the choir in this thread though 😅

Does anyone remember the exact nature of Lever's foot stress injury? If it was a lisfranc, that might give us some hope. Of course, TMac did a good job coming back from his lisfranc but unfortunately the rest of him is also pretty cooked :(

The other highlight of Petty is he intimately knows our game plan both forward and behind... A new gun key forward traded in would not have that same depth of understanding which might make for slower return on investment. Even without a trade we will have to grapple with this while Petty and Melksy are injured

I didn't say it was good 😂 My fave detail is that the stats bars don't make sense but they're in red and blue

No, they made it deliberately look like a browser 😂 It's a whole graphic theme they're doing for trade week... pretending to sit at Lamb's desk https://www.instagram.com/p/CyVC-ZALCkg/?igshid=NjIwNzIyMDk2Mg==

Honestly, the whole saga leaves me disappointed in all parties. During preseason there was such hope and a strong showing of a two ruckman system. For various (and fair) reasons that style did not show throughout the home and away season... but to have it end in such a solitary manner between the club and Grundy makes me feel bitter as a fan. In Sydney, I can't rely on special information. I can only see what is happening in the media and this forum... and most of it just muddies the water. Grundy seemed like a great and professional player - if he disengaged to the extent people are saying, that disappoints me. The way Max and the club appear to have behaved and the lack of acknowledgement of the situation disappoints me too. There may be good reasons for each party to act like this but I have a day job and can't spend every moment reading every tea leaf to figure out all the allusions. I hope we play well next year and that Max's body holds up against the onslaught (but the pessimist in me doubts it)... I am sad Grundy departed but wish him no ill will. It is what it is.

Idk, Broden goes full nuffy whenever he talks Dees on the pod. He can pretend he's above it, but deep at heart he is clearly a Demonland nuff like the rest of us 😂

Just a little digression... Bradbury won that gold medal in his fourth Olympics, after recovering from breaking his back in a crash two years beforehand. Doctors told him he'd never skate again! But what a comeback! He's got more in common with our Eliza Mc than Collingwood 😊 P.S. strategy helped him win, he knew he couldn't beat the others on pure speed but figured they'd skate uber aggressively and have a crash

I'm sure Carrie initially did it by mistake but imagine the radio show producers etc thought it was a great opportunity to be "funny" Poor Grundy. He seems like such a decent and honest guy, and he's really been put through the wringer between the Pies, the media and us

This for me too, ta!
