Hawks are riding a rickety billy cart of doom all by themself.

Tim Kelly has played alright for a change.

I thought GWS were too good for bottom 4 but a few injuries and they could be well headed there.

We're playing the long game.

I'm uncomfortable with undefeated teams. Especially Essendon if they go 3-0 next week.

How can a Melbourne side be smashed 20-10 in centre and 40-22 in stoppage clearances. Was it: - The structural loss of Max - The emotional loss of Max and the leadership he brings - Something else - Combination of all

You don't want to be zip and 3!

It's got the Leppitsch about it doesn't it.

That's a bit rude from ChatGPT telling you how to do your job.

Let's go Coasters!

Should have changed the tip to Suns. Got 1 so far.

That first quarter was played at breakneck speed and I'm not sure but it looked like there was a slightly slippery deck. It was chaos and to Brisbane's credit they got the jump they needed and also to start the second half. Credit to the Lions they responded with the intensity that they were meant to bring last week. No excuses but there was a bizarre set of circumstances in this game that went against us, it had the feeling of Freo at the G last year. If we're going to bring performances and in particular contested ball performances like that then I'm glad it's now and not later in the season. The big debate is chaos vs control and I do wonder if in that first quarter we could have tried to slow it down more with slower movement. I know we love the faster play but there will be times to control the tempo. Very hard to turn on and off like a tap though.

I believed the whole way through last year and will continue to believe that the best possible thing Luke could have done for his career was to sign a two year deal with us, pay his butt off and if he still wanted to go home doing so at that point with a big fat ego contract. This wasn't the right time and he's played it poorly, even if he does become a star and has team success he'll be doing it the hard way now. Gavin Wanganeen left Essendon at 23 after a Brownlow and a flag. Port made him the inaugural skipper and really struggled with it for years. He regretted the decision, especially when Essendon won again in 2000 and felt he made a mistake. Fortunately he won it with Port in 04 but I hope Luke doesn't wake up one day thinking the same thing.

This kid is a bonafide jet. I'm happy to say it after two games. Good on him, the online abuse and other rubbish he had to deal with was very ordinary.

I'm happy to take the marathon and not sprint approach this year.

Yi haaaaa!

Don't be mad Freo, it's not our fault you folded like paper planes.

Forget Freo for a second, if North's performance doesn't inspire you. Then you ain't human.

Code blue: We need 100 CCs of small violins delivered to Fremantle oval stat.

Did it happen before or after? I wish I cared, I really do. But I don't at all. Good on the Roos!

Too true Norm. Luxury of an AA ruckman ain't bad.

Hopefully they kept their docket 😜

I feel almost exactly the same without the feeling bad part.

Just got this baby waxed, time for a ride down Market Street..

Nearly a hold my beer moment for the umps. Well done North!
