  1. Both Curnow and Mackay have that mongral and want to crash packs and a touch of swagger , attitude that alot of the best forwards have. JVR has it. Weid,schace do not. Jefferson I have yet to see it ( early days). Petty has it

    maybe we might go a season without needing to work out how to play Geelong at Geelong 😅
  3. Agree unlike this time last year where we were clearly running out of gas and declining. We are the opposite this year
  4. I think they have named him to give him a bit of confidence, he's had a tough year with selection. I think they will see what he brings and if he plays like he did again I suggest he'll be dropped. Probably will anyway to make way for clarry
  5. Cotchin isn't best 22 anymore. It's passed him. Champion but I forgot he was in the ground last week
  6. By umpires I meant doctors of course 🤦‍♂️
  7. Surley this leads to AFL appointed independent doctors. Wouldn't be hard to get a pool of 20 or so respected doctors to be paid handsomely for a 4 hour gig every other week
  8. Hawthorn buddy was unbelievable and so great to watch majority of Sydney buddy was meh.
  9. Coaches got it right. That's why alot of people myself included, regard this award higher than the Brownlow .
  10. JJ going into the middle has been terrible everytime
  11. Not just you, looks to be injured or had lost more than a yard of pace and slow to react
  12. Too many passengers so far this game, need woey, Langdon, hunter, JJ, Chandler to lift and have an impact
  13. Our midfield missing sparrow and clarry badly

    Love to see the cats loose, he's getting up would also be a great result

    It is

    I don't think I'll be able to handle this Collingwood love in commentary all night. Already over it 10 mins in
  17. As some previous posters have mentioned , I am in the Petty in forward (wouldn't be upset if it's smith) Hibbo back rivers more midfield minutes.
  18. I've got to much time on my hands replying to this thread. If there has every been a player that went on a season too long that's buddy this year. Absolute champion that is done as an AFL player
  19. Dropping an in form Melksham would be pretty silly. Been in our top 5 most important players, past 2 weeks
  20. If we win 70 to 60 in a slugfest I'm happy. We've played some exciting footy the past 2 weeks and luckily got 2 wins. I'm happy that we are playing and practicing different styles and have ability to adapt in game
  21. To be fair him and Max seem to be going for the same ball alot of the time need to sort it out
  22. Bates Mate replied to Ollie fan's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Amen 🙌
  23. Vpn and Foxtel app can be more trouble than it's worth, as others have mentioned watch AFL app is the way to go. Works well. pay for the match and it will be the least stressful.
  24. Won't happen but would love to see Bowser in his role
  25. Joel Smith the perfect sub.
