Great intensity in that final quarter. Once we had control of the ball and scored a few times, there was a great well of BELIEF. The guys also shared the ball much better this week. It’s great to see handball chains coming out of the middle and from half back rather than blind dump kicks. It’s what’s been lacking in the past couple of weeks – just need to share the ball rather than try to win it all by themselves.

Watching it again, now! Who’s with me?

I love the fact that there is absolutely no reference to the tigers v kangaroos game today. Didn’t give it much of a thought myself either.

Nice work, GW and team

Well, [censored] me!

Damn Give milky another 7 years!

That’s why you don’t jump for those.

Good idea, GW! I think this could be revolutionary in cheer squads. The use of the INTERCHANGE! We need you to be fresh at 3/4 time, and bring them home with a big last quarter. Maybe give the players a bit of your Red Bull at 3/4 time as well. Are they allowed to have Red Bull? Hope you all have a great day.👍

I think his pace is alright. He’s fast enough to catch players HTB. Goes okay with linking hand balls and kicks. Looks like he has been told to kick 35–45m but should be encouraged to boot it 60m diagonally across the ground. Would be very hard to defend if he was used correctly.

Truth in advertising, eh? “This game promises to be a bit [censored]”

To be honest, I think that our players haven’t been given all the tools for every possibility. In the first half, they looked good running from the back and through the outside. The only issue was the kicking for goal. In the second half, the players tried to do the same thing, but the Southport players were made aware. It’s like they were only given a screwdriver which worked for all the screws in the first half. Unfortunately they also needed a hammer, and perhaps some spanners in the second half.

Not much opposition to be fair.

Are you [censored] serious? Every [censored] time Campbell got the ball, it was a guaranteed sharks disposal, if not goal. He stayed in the ruck far too long, took the ball out of the contest and gave it to the opposition so many times I almost threw up. And crossing the ball to the other side is meant to be done at speed, not with dinky little 15 meter kicks that get spoilt and cut off for a goal. I thought at least Verrall was clean with his hands, found his targets, and pushed the other rucks out of the way. Pity he was only in there for about 10 minutes. We had too many players thinking that they were too good for this level today. Trying to run through 3 tackles, or hand balling over their head or while they are diving. The amount of times that players handballed to a running player, only to put them under immediate pressure, was ridiculous. Southport obviously had been made aware at half time, but we could not stop doing it🤪. Ollie Sestan was perhaps the only decent player for 4/4.

Noted today that VFL Sydney V Carlton was played at 3:05 pm, at the SCG before the main game. Obviously the Gabba surface cannot handle 2 games in a row. Or it’s just us?

How long is it going to be before the draw gets overruled on Expected score? 😱

I don’t hate Weddle or anything but he should have been cleaned up by Rivers in the last quarter he had every right to go for that ball, and didn’t need to stop and do the nice thing.

T Mac is getting a rough deal today

[censored] it’s called front and centre for a reason!

They should all have a week off after that

I think I’ll need to attend umpire training, as their trainer, and explain how the ducking that Dambrosio just did is prior opportunity and that he needs to make an attempt to get rid of the ball legally – an attempt will do as he was tackled straight away. But [censored] me, he can’t just lie on the fricking thing.

Nice one, Harvey!

Harvey was hard done by there. Don’t understand the prior opportunity rule. Or it’s just free kick Hawthorn again.

Chin could not see anything then – frigging light. Nice mark by Spargs. Pity about the kick.

Salem was in the [censored] there. If he grabbed onto Moore and fell over, it would’ve been 50m

Except with less Artistic flair.
