Dammit… they’ve changed the time. It’s a recovery session at 1:45pm

Yeah nah, not looking promising. The truck’s not here, the marquee’s not up. Maybe they’re starting later, who knows 🤷‍♀️ If there’s no session here, me and my Gosch’s crew might head over to the other oval and see if Collingwood are training. If so, anyone got any message they’d like passed on to any Collingwood player? And by passed on I mean rudely screamed at.

Anyone who’s heading over to Gosch’s this morning should keep in mind that this ISN’T an open training session. It may be cancelled or relocated without notice (this even applies to open sessions) so please don’t be mad at me if this happens. By all means be mad, just not at me. 😃

I didn’t know there was an established heat policy. Do you mean at a certain temperature the game can be abandoned? Or just changes such as longer breaks etc?

Ouch! Maxy sledging us 🫣

This is the team that deserves the bottom of my chooks’ indoor accommodation… My brother buys the H/S (please pray for him 🤭) and brings them to mine every week. He’s a Carlton supporter but our unholy hatred for Essendon bonds us like nothing else. When he visits he checks the coop and it’s never not funny.

… and Storm enjoyed a thumping win; their 23rd consecutive first-round win. Incredible. 💜

Dunno but I have every hair and skin cell of his thigh seared into my memory. And it ain’t pretty

Matt Hill in commentary = 🤌

We’ve been told Perryman’s playing against his old side only a handful of times. Where’s BT when you need monotonous repetition?!

Sounds familiar. See also: Demonland GameDay thread.

Yeah, it’s huge in terms of where we’re at having had such an incredible preseason and with all the changes (coaches etc.)

Bloody hell… GO GIANTS!

Cal Brown… an Irishman ☘️

What a goal!

I’d never predict how any club will go based on the result of the first match.

As a side issue: today marks Jack Crisp’s 238th consecutive game. He’s now only seven games away from breaking Jimmy’s record. Time’s running out. Records are made to be broken etc. but the thought of that grub being the one to take the mantle makes me sick. Someone needs to take him out (make it look like an accident 🤭).

Yep. And it’s actually a broken bone, so I’m guessing he won’t line up against us 🤷‍♀️

Broken thumb. He got it caught in the door of the toilet on the plane

Didn’t know where to post this but since they’re playing today and coz we all hate them as it is, I’m posting it here. Pack of hyenas circling the poor kid

Love this 👏 👏👏

It’s always prudent to get permission to take the pics as well as to post them publicly. I’m especially mindful of this since I tend to spend lot of time with kids in the DA, in particular, teenage girls. I have no less than 10 “footy daughters” and teenage girls spend most of their waking hours taking selfies, so that’s a truckload of pics floating around. 😂

Geez you know you’re on the slide when PF drops the W-bomb 😅
