There wasn’t any time for any of this as the umpire inexplicably called play-on before Gawn had a chance to even look around.

We are linked in this article to Callum Brown from GWS. I like it. Him and Derksen at the end of the year for a pack of chips thanks. https://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/afl-trade-news-2025-midseason-trade-state-of-play-for-every-club-trade-and-free-agent-targets-players-out-of-contract-analysis-latest-news/news-story/cf6c8470a52ab14692b98568286faeba

Expected scoring takes into account the difficulty of the shots (angle, distance, set shot vs in play etc) and we finished on a higher score. Sure, we could make things easier for ourselves by marking in the goal square but our goal kicking IS the problem.

Nah that’s BS. We are not bottom 4 and won’t finish bottom 4 but we are clearly the worst kicks at goal in the league. Brings us down from being a possible finals team.

No concussion so it will be 1-2, probably 2 given how unnecessary it was.

If we went Disco forward (not sure we should), we bring TMac back surely.

We may, but we do have a tendency to play up or down to our opponent’s level.

Arrogant team defence all game. What I don’t understand is why our method looks so different this week than the last 5 or 6. Gone is the chipping and switching and we seem back to pre-2025 long bombing and chaos. And [censored] our goal kicking needs to improve.

I’d be very surprised if they hold over 3 players for the senior team. Seems much more likely to be just Henderson and Adams (one tall, one small).

Surely Laurie is the in, sub. Sharp into the 22. Hope they are just being extra cautious with Viney. Don’t want any prolonged post concussion syndrome 🤞🏼

Soft draw. Only disappointment is the girls won’t have a chance to get at Libby Birch again in the H&A season. I guess we will have to wait for finals!

Yes, I was going to bring this up. She said we were “pretenders” and backed it up with no reasons (she is saints supporter tho). She is an arrogant and salty individual. As a big AFLW fan, I cannot stand her. Doesn’t seem to have any insight into the fact that she has left two clubs on bad terms (maybe you are the problem?!). Trashes our culture every chance she gets as though she hasn’t been gone for over a year and was never part of the men’s program. She is also insufferable as a commentator - overly critical of any team deviates slightly from perfection. I have never come across such a critical commentator.

How about any marks then? The bar some people have for AJ is sooo low seriously.

Drop AJ please. Tmac back, Disco forward. Viney for Spargo.

Please!

Brayshaw was genuinely dual footed though

Best game I’ve seen from Adams

Agree, it was extraordinary. The one to Long against Scrimshaw for example was baffling. And there were plenty more where that came from.

They have three expected to go first round (at least two of them top 10): Zeke Uwland, Dylan Patterson and Beau Addinsal (might have the spelling wrong). White will be well down their priority list.

I have been wondering why we don’t try him forward a bit. He certainly has the tools. He had a stand out game yesterday. Has the potential to be a top 10 player in the game.

I have had a good feeling about this game all week. Barrass out is huge. Hawks will be well off their best 22. This needs to be a statement game for us.

Langford is having a better year than Ashcroft

Melksham also didn’t shove him into the path of leading players, which has been the case in all of the other incidents. It would be absolutely crazy to suspend him.

It was 20,522 last night. We got 25k.

He was on the verge of being picked at AFL level so it is effectively an extension of his suspension (more than the tribunal wanted or intended for him) due to the idiotic VFL scheduling.
