JJ will be the unlucky one for Clarry. Not sure what to do with the small forwards. They are all not performing but i guess we don't have many options.

Loved that Salem is back. His contested work is phenomenal. McVee just gets better and better. He is becoming a weapon off half back. Hunter cracked in hard today which was great to see. Viney is having a career best season. Apart from one shocking set shot, Joel Smith was terrific. Maybe he could be the missing link? The small forwards were abysmal. Kozzie, ANB, Spargo and Chandler really have to make an impact on the scoreboard. ANB's fumbling will be costly in the heat of finals. Don't know what to do with Kozzie. Grundy improved in the second half, but needed to. Tomlinson was back to 2021 pre-knee form. Kudos. By the end of the year I expect JvR will be a major handful for defences. Fritta slaughtered Darcy Moore.

6. Viney 5. Salem 4. Hunter 3. Fritta 2. Tomlinson 1. Smith Special mention: May (apart from two dropped marks in fourth quarter) McVee,

Good: McVee, May, Tomlinson, Fritta, Smith, Fritta, Salem, Hunter, Viney and Max. Bad: Hibberd, Van Roo, Chandler, ANB, Spargo, Ugly: Pickett, Grundy.

Bad kicking is bad football. Chandler, Kozzie, Grundy, wow! Brayshaw (disposal) and ANB (fumbling again) costing us. Liking Smith, Salem, May and Viney

Blues have no recognisable system. And despite having stars like Curnow, McKay, Weitering, Walsh, Cripps, etc. they have little else.

Jesse might be more 'switched on' than you think if he is still living with Mumford!

Interesting. They'll blow their salary cap again! McStay mustn't have made much of an impact...

Brisbane vs Pies grand final.

Ben McKay has flogged him.

Be warned the commentary is horrendous!

What a goal by Humphrey! What a shame we couldn't somehow draft him.

Don't understand as a supposed Melb. supporter why you would continually bag a 19 year old kid? Just bizarre. And while you're at it, listen to your inner voice, the one that tells you to STFU.

Will cop more than one I think! Was crude and MRO will come down hard. Form wise, I don't think we'll see Harmes for quite some time...

What hyperbolic nonsense.

I think Kozzie is an interesting talking point. He's averaging only 11 possessions a game and tonight only had three kicks. Sure he puts pressure on oppositions but IMO he's capable of much, much more.

Been getting plenty of the ball but disposal is ordinary. Won't be dropped.

Yeah, that was overkill. Lovely people as they are. Peter (father) was a terrific tennis player and his sister Sandra on his left a former Age journalist.

Not huge amount to like. But the performance of the kids McVee, Sparrow, Bowey, JvR and to an extent Rivers was pleasing. I am worried about Kozzie though. One highlight goal and not much else.

6. Tracc 5. Sparrow 4. May 3. McVee 2. Lever 1. Salem Stiff: JvR, Bowey.

When did Langdon become a VFL standard player?

Just an aside. May is killing Curnow. Kudos.

Try not to drop any...

Highlight is McVee. Quick, clean, sure handed. Kid is a star.

If we lose, we are staring down five losses in a row! Pies and Cats (in Geelong) to come!
