"Dude, if I lived in this town, I’d be on my hands and knees praying for abduction every ****ing day, alright?"

This was a stressful one, ended up watching at the Duke of Wellington in the city. First game I've seen this year with the sound off, it's pretty enjoyable I must say. We started off with a bang and I think we all would have loved to just cruise on through and have a nice relaxing arvo/evening. But the Crows had other ideas and really matched us for intensity for quite a lot of this game really. It was a real physical contest you could see the Crows really trying to get stuck in and, quite a lot of dirty play I thought after the ball had gone out of bounds and things like that. I detest talking about umpiring but this one is way too hard to overlook, 23 free kicks to 9 their way. I watched this one with the sound off so I couldn't really tell if it was a crowd influenced thing but the majority of the Crows frees were very 50-50 while it really did seem like we needed to have our heads ripped off to get anything from the umps. A lot of throws in this game missed as well from both sides, but yeah seeing it down the middle as much as possible I just thought this was a terror night for the umps but in spite of all that we showed what a great side we are and were able to grit it out and pull off an amazing result! I thought Petracca really came to play today and his early goal really got the confidence up! Was getting sick to death of hearing about goal inaccuracy percentage this week so nice to see him hit the target. Thought his game overall was outstanding today, and quite often they had trouble laying a glove on him that's a 3 brownlow vote game. We move on to Clarry, boy oh boy I'm so glad we have this guy for the next 8 years! I still marvel at how easily this guy gets his hands free. 11 tackles as well, this game was definitely won at the coalface and Clarry never fails to turn up with the miner's helmet. Thought Jack Viney was really important in the second half, Ed Langdon best game since he took that nasty hit to the ribs he was back to his running machine best and that goal was amazing at such a crucial time! Gus put in a good shift again, he's got so much confidence with the ball in flight now. Lever was excellent against some of his old friends, May had a much improved game this week I thought that back 6 had it's moments early on but they are starting to get back to what we know and love. As I mentioned earlier, a real physical encounter and both sides looked totally gassed late in the game. Good to get the win but with that 5 day break I hope we can just bust on through, not sure how serious the Luke Jackson injury was I'd hope that he's an auto in. It's going to be a blockbuster down in Geelong and we really need to take a scalp in these next few games so come on the mighty Dees!

Well it would be nice for Collingwood to fluff one soon, they really need to lose.

It makes me sick that Collingwood could actually make top 4.

Shocking result, total crap.

The umpiring is as bad as our game

I'd get less butchering at the butchers

Come on Suns, you deserve to win this

De Goey has been crap. That's what you get for waking up in Vegas..

He did get the odd nice tap but he really didn't bring enough in that first half and I agree we were almost a man down. Just hope it comes together for him a bit more in the next few weeks.

Is the Cats and Roos game even worth watching?

Well we got a heck of a game this Thurs..

Come on Suns.

Really no choice but to have faith. Hopefully the penny drops.

6. Petracca 5. Oliver 4. Langdon 3. Viney 2. Harmes 1. Lever

It's us against the world! They can't stop us!

Run it down Dees!

Got it! Points in the bag!

Fritta!

Will be huge if we hang on

Great reply!

Jacky boy you bloody beauty!

Ripper Langdon!

We can't compete with this

Hanging in
