I think we gotta let this one go. Yes there were some talented kids in that draft but the what ifs are just going to drive us all crazy. We chose who we did and he helped us win a flag. Young is going to be great, I'm a massive fan but we've really gotta look forward now and plan for the future.

Credit to May, really did play a brilliant game. Personally thought Petty wasn;t far off but well done to the big man.

Well there you go, another case of the media throwing a cluster of different injuires out there for dramatic click bait effect.

Bowing out in the prelim is a pass mark. I don't enjoiy saying it but winning a final is hardly the worst defence of a premiership. I want a lot more of your confidence LH, I think we're still a great side but there's some things working against us.

I'm honestly lucky to watch any game other than the Dees on a given weekend at the moment. Responsibilities galore.

If that is the case then that changes everything. You can have the tiniest stress fracture in your leg and it is still a stress fracture, possibly painful but you could mnake it through a game. If the cork is the source of the limping then that is a much better and less scary outcome.

Freo are the best traveling team in 2022 and they've got a win already at the G this year. I'd still give the edge to Collingwood but this won't be a gimme.

This is the most ludicrous system ever invented. I've never seen such confusion and frustration. Such a load of crap.

Glad it worked out better this time!

We weren't just kicking to the pocket from just outside 50, we were literally trying to bang it in there from the wing which almost rendered our half forward play non-existent. I get getting it in there and figuring the rest out later but you know when I want that attitude? I want that attitude when we are about to exit the centre square and go for one too many handballs on cough it up when the clearance should have been ours. I just want to see us vary our ball movement and forward 50 entries. I don't remember too many games we've won this year when the majority of kicks into the 50 were the same predictable bombs every time. If I had time I would go through every forward 50 kick on Fri night that was 40 metres + and see how many a)goals came out of it and b) how many stoppages were created. I’m not going to call it a stupid gameplan because it clearly isn’t and if these levels are reasonable then it is more a case of or our forward structure and pressure but is that enough? Will it kick us a winning score? If we are going to persist with it I’d love to see a lot more low and hard kicks in there, keep it low and unpredictable. If it goes out of bounds then brilliant. We need to do more to catch opposition backs off guard.

Bowing out, might look later. Good luck all

I'd get better satisfaction banging my head against a brick wall..

Same here, 20 mins. This is pathetic.

Just seems like a real scumbag thing to do. Stealing coins from a donation tin wouldn't be much worse. As someone not in the know I'd like to think all clubs support their cheer squads. Of course though the level of support would not be equal depending on who is running things.

Better clear the cookies.

This is just as bad if not worse.

It would be nice if the small forwards we had got front and square occasionally.

Been booted now and waiting to get back in. That tears it, I'll take a look at the MFC members allocations but most likely MCC walk up.

The best I could get on Level 4 was HH.

The best I can get is also back of level 1, can't even access level 2. This is trumped up garbage.

This is absolute crap yet again.

Really fancied the Dogs against the Pies much more than Freo. Will give them a go but gee wiz.

That's pretty low.

Look I'll level with you, I'm feeling pretty much the same. After going to every single home game this year I've suddenly felt flat as a tack. Mate who I usually go with is bowing out this week and I sure as hell can't be bothered with that stupid ticketing system. But I know I have to snap out of it somewhat, It's a game of footy with Melbourne in it. Come Fri I've gotta be at my best.

Big ask beating a team 3 teams in a season, apparently impossible unless the other side is flu-ridden on the 3rd attempt.
