idk, we played really badly today, but I think it's nice that a terrible loss for us now is only 22 points. I don't think we're in as bad of a place that people think.

Look, that was very bad, but at least the worst performance I've seen them put out in years is only a 22 point loss, with a few of those shocking umpiring decisions going our way it might've (somehow) only been 2 goals. One of last year's Grand Finalists playing at their best for the year can only beat us playing at our worst by 22 points. I think we've had the hardest fixture so far this year, god knows why, in all their wisdom, the AFL chose to give Sydney the bye this week instead of us. Managing to go 4/6 is a pretty big achievement for what we've faced so far. They get a big rest after a hectic last two weeks, and hopefully they come out firing. It's not over yet, the season's only just begun. We can go all the way this year.

We're stretched a bit thin for our likely outs right now, so some will be really lucky to keep their spots. Here's what I can think of: Maybe Moniz-Wakefield debut for a likely injured Salem. Billings out, Kozzy in. Whatever best performing vfl tall we can find for Petty (anything except Schache please). Potentially Oliver out (I think he needs a short stint in the VFL to return to form) and Hunter in, depending on how both pull up. If both great bring Hunter in for Kolt. If any VFL option for Brown we need to let him rest. What do you all think we could see changed for Anzac Eve?

15* which is equivalent to playing on the same day each week.

idk, gets hit in the face and drops it, he should've gotten a free

viney gets whacked in the face and drops the ball, free kick to Brisbane for some reason.

i will always happily contribute to a zorko boo

we deserve to be losing right now but the umpiring decisions aren't going our way either. they get every 50/50 and we get none.

At the ground and didn't see anything specific, I think its just bc he's an awful person.

Not our best footy ever but to be expected for 2 in a row on the road, with a 5 day break after a tough night game against a top side, opening gather round against Adelaide! Still much to work on but we're seeing some amazing things, can't wait to see how the rest of the year goes and hopefully break this new finals curse. 2 for 2 baby!!!!

cautiosly optimistic but i think we go 2 from 2

the lights are on at the mcg, at 1:45pm on a sunny 30⁰ sunday arvo

i want some serious lineup experiments this week... gws off their bye so it may be our last chance to experiment until norf. hoping for jordon/spargs/hibberd/jvr/chandler out for reasons below and BBB/bowey/tomo/melksham/woewodin in jordon/spargs omitted, hibberd injured, jvr/chandler need rests, BBB in for jvr, petty up forward for chandler, bowey in for hibberd, tomo where petty was, woewodin for jordon and melksham sub big changes but i think we need them

don't care what anyone says, salem best on ground, midfielders and forwards get all the attention.
