Same here and thought the same too. I think it was the underdog syndrome

Spargo looking good.

I think MFC players are leading turnovers

Yeah was rusty in the first but looked much better in the second.

Was he ever expected to be? He is good but a level below the a graders

Just in this break. Gawn looking to struggle with the new ruck rules. Looks lost or unable to compete with the jumping rucks

and that’s a wrap on state of origin.

Gawn getting towelled up

So based on that - is it fair to say that he wasnt doing that at MFC? I thougt i could recall many trackwatchers report that said he was training the house down. i remember even when he kicked 3 in a practise game and we thought he was back...then it went nowhere, fast. Perhaps it was the kick up the bum he need to squeeze that extra 1-2% (or more like the 5-10% as he was miles behind the top rungs of AFL midfielders).

How much extra would they have paid if the timing was reversed (i.e. ACL >> trade week). Even if Clarry is not at his best, they are almost identical in type of skill level and role.

i was wondering why the on ground scoreboard was out of whack.

Whats with the 2 min Half Time breaks? I need to get some work done.

Its like a golf swing change... feel vs real. I suspect in the afl season, we will have a little bit more gear changes between fast and slow. But given the slow and methodoical is so engrained, we need to over emphasise the change.

Who is #29 - i thought we pinched Rayner for a second.

Well i can say our ball movement is completely different. WIll be interesting to see how we hold up on the inside with a full squad though.

XL's second costly turnover in the back 50.

ok - i have 5 minutes before quarters to punch out a report....come on down chatGPT.

I thought Trelly was playing Kozzie's role in the blue.

I think they are going to have to change it up... whites not competitive enough - not a great sign for depth.

And we are back and seemed to miss a purple patch from the blues.

who bumped the camera.

No 5 with the Blues - costly turnover under no pressure giving the Whites their first.

Roo with the first for the Blues 45 out a few metres off the boundary.

wow we have replays.

Any DL'ers make an appearance?
