I can't really disagree with any of this. We need to mix some things up, no use in being super predictable and easy to prepare for. I've loved JJ's work in the middle this year but I wouldn't mind seeing a different look. Maybe Sparrow? I like the idea of Kozzie and giving us an edge to break away from stoppages. Viney showed he can offer a bit at forward 50 stoppages, I would love to see him spend a bit more time across half forward. The sense is that the closer we get to finals the less experiments we'll see but we have to keep opposition guessing for me and have other clubs we can take out of the bag if needed.

Really hope that guy gets binned.

That's right EO, it's not realistic. Its a huge ask especially if these reported loads are in place. Don't know what the answer is but hopefully they do.

Not gonna waste my energy on it but go Tigs

For a team that plays as taxing a game style as us I think there's probably something to this. The whole game plan relies on pressure which means bringing the same effort every bloody week. It's not just one or two many players look gassed.

Highlighted on the podcast this week I did think Bartel made a good comment saying we need to know the right moments to speed up the game. If where not going to score with the forwards we have then we probably need more opportunities.

Nailed it

Thought Hunty was pretty good

I don’t get involved in interchange after goal debates. They’re a waste of time these days.

6. Oliver 5. Lever 4. Gawn 3. Hunt 2. Petracca 1. Viney

Gave it a good hour cool off. Can sum it up with two good sides, one didn’t convert their chances, other one did, team that didn’t certainly didn’t lose through lack of effort, better team won. Tried our best, didn’t get over the line. Probably need 3 wins of 4 to get top 4 and need to run the table for top 2. It’s fickle stuff this football caper,near enough isn’t good enough. Letting Bont roam free at the back of the contest twice for 2 goals didn’t help. Dogs were much the better side tonight but my word they had some great help from the umpires. Never usually one to look at that stuff but 25-11 was absurd and hurt us in crucial areas. Smashed the hit outs, not the clearances. Plenty of inside 50s for not enough scoring shots. It was like the worst of our problems in the last 4 years in one at times. Thats pretty much it from me, it’s up for grabs now. Season could end in glory, could fall out of the 4, the season could get canned altogether, who the hell knows. I’m not quite as annoyed about it though as other ones this year. I still want to live a good life. Good evening all.

That's about right

Dogs have been the better side all night but gee they've had a lot of help from the umpires

This is not living

I know many here loved Hannan but honestly screw him.

It's all against us

Thought we had a free hit at a goal there with the Hunter business

That's the one Benny!

Don't gift wrap the Dogs possession

Not bad at all from the former skipper there.

Another get out of jail free for the Dogs

That kick from Nibbler needed to be clean

Out of sorts Brown

Where's the downfield free on Rivers?

Mitchy H. Glad you're fired up for this one. Say no more
