Oh wow, dark mode really is so beautiful! Going to be excitedly telling anyone I come across today about the update (all of whom will be like "uhhh that's nice DP")

I'd say they should be suspended from attending the next 3 games or so. We're not Carlton or Pie supporters!

Andrew Dillon could only dream of being like you, GW! Read into that statement however you like 😂

The fox/kayo commentators kept on saying that he's called "the Bull" during the final quarter of the GWS game. So close to the Bison, but so far... Glad he's in good spirits!

Completely - I can't watch footy at the G with my mum because she's very passionate but becomes overwhelming negative about our players (intense MFCSS strikes). She's fine in front of a TV though haha

Yes, it is a bit embarrassing! I like a laugh but find the banter often involves punching down and I'm not interested in that, especially as a fan. Some of the interviews are good, as there's camaraderie with less banter - and I find the AFLW Deebrief pod is more measured and analysis driven. Some of the emotion works, when it occurs in a poignant manner, such as when talking about Gus' retirement. But the ladsy stuff is not my cup of tea

It's a shame that footy isn't the common interest. Hope you find a common interest soon!

I'm certainly loud both when attending in person or viewing from my couch in Sydney. In the first 10 mins of today's game, my sister called my mobile to tell me to shut the f@$k up as I barracked in front of the TV haha

That was one of the stand outs for me in Wheelo's stats for this game. 11 set shots for 1 goal, 4 behinds, 6 misses compared to their 9 set shots for 5 goals, 3 behinds, 1 miss (if I read the table correctly). Even 3 behinds rather than misses would have helped us at the end of this game, nevermind failure to convert to goal! The other stand out in the stats was our dominant third quarter performance (such as time in forward half, shots on goal, pressure, certain players performances)... nice to see that return ☺️

Commentators: "i don't think that was a throw" *said as replay shows clear throwing action* Oh Channel 7 🫠

Love that Tayla Harris ad, showing some young Dees fans copying her!

I'm thick, didn't realise the green socks were for Jim until the commentators pointed it out 😅

Swap to Seven Plus if it doesn't work!

Going the Crom for this game, for our boy Nibbla!

Interesting that the highlighted quote about The Deebrief focuses on emotions as a highlight. After a while this is what turned me off their podcast, the banter and emotiveness (think gameday thread). I now focus solely on the Demonland podcast because of how insightful it is (while still allowing space for some humour and fellow feeling).

Just like that time I visited Singapore and an ad played before the movies about how the World Happiness Rankings said Singaporeans were unhappy but actually... Singaporeans are so happy! 😉

Well we're definitely heading up to the top 8!

I'm based in Sydney and have no sense of direction!

You might love it (or hate it) up here, Layzie! I live on a laneway and everyone chats to each other. Something about the small walkable streets and all the cute dogs being walked leads to a small town friendliness, even though it's only 1.5 km from the CBD. As I type this I can hear my neighbours Kathleen and Ross talking under the frangipani tree! (It's nice except for when you get caught with a large load of shopping...)

You're telling me! Was watching the game and enjoying the new dimension of rain before it fi ally clicked that I live down the road from the SCG and I rushed off to collect my newly wet washing 😅

I think that is fibre haha

I noticed that too! A few boys helped (saw Kozzie in the background) but Sharpie definitely did the most, making that big stack.

Rick squeezing his chocolate gel snack thing and then realising he'd squeezed too much and it fell on the floor 😂

And the rain isn't drizzly or misty like is often the case in Melbourne. I've had the same load of washing rained on 3 times this week, because the weather changes are sudden and not as forecasted 😅

I also have a street party! I thought it would start at 6 pm (to which I could arrive fashionably lateish) but they've set the start time at 4 pm :')
