Why didn't we give Kozzie a go at some centre bounces? You know, get him into the game?

No wholesale changes. North is a competitive unit, treat them lightly at your peril. Couple of rotations with guys playing through the pain barrier but dropping Grundy and Hunter is nonsensical.

Think so too. Just finished the replay, a good win and finally got it together, a few let offs but got it done and that's a plus. Teams know what do try against us and that is moving it fast before we can set defensively and getting it to ground rather than hurried kicking in the air. Coaching staff will be earning their money in the coming weeks.

One of the best things I've ever seen.

I will say you do make some worthwhile observations but can I ask have you actually been to one of these games before?

Did we get out of jail free in this game? Richmond kicked 8 behinds in the seconds half (a few free kicks spurned in those). I was really impressed with the way we rallied and got the W but our efforts and desire in the first half looked a lot like last week and I can't help but wonder if a better side would have put us to the sword.

Gee some of these 3rd quarter frees were dicey.

Fair enough, we should all just shut up at the football and not mention anything about it because the two concepts shouldn't cross over and they're exploiting it for private gain. Let's strip back on everything. Dreamtime, LGBTQ all of it. Footy is no place for political statements in the game and all we should ever see is tje game. Give me a spell.

Where do we draw the line though? Is the dreamtime game a farce as well? Heck why play on Good Friday? Shining light on and acknowledging something significant to history doesn't always mean it's for the entertainment ratings and big bucks. We talk about wanting to unite and not divide and football often brings people together. I didn't see a lot of merchandising exercises last night at the G but I did see a lot of ANZAC badges being sold and people showing their respects. I understand if people think football should be separate but it's a great event to be a part of and fsr different from a rock concert.

I did. I also support the Melbourne Football Club and go to this game every year.

Nick Daicos medal surely.

Clear leader right now

The black and white tsunami

No-one draws attention to sideline signals as much as BT

This Collingwood machine is something else

Break out the curtains

Daicos for the medal was a gimme

So many morons

What a joke

A humdinger on the cards

Point taken, appreciate your view. What would be and better way to do it? Or, what is the more appropriate way to publicly show gratitude to my grandfather, great uncle and everyone else who gave everything for us to live how we do today? Or should it be a don't ask, don't tell thing?

What should we do instead?

Well there isn't Xmas Eve or NYE either they aren't official public holidays. This just happens to be a night to play a big game on that we happen to be part of every year now, I'm not complaining.

Reckon they would have allowed a re-kick that night?

Good problem to have
