Well that is a lesson to the dees in how to shut the game down in the last three minutes. Giants (like us) were the better team for most of the game but you’ve got to respect that last 3 mins. It was clinical.

Huge!

GWS have just been so clean. If they keep it up they won’t just win this game.

Tom Mitchell throwing his head back every time he gets near it, as he did against us with?Trac. Absolute cheating disgrace

100%. They need some serious coaching on how to ice the game.

At the very least we should be looking to trade 5 into 4, if GC favour trading the pick to the dogs.

Typo. It was supposed to say big lol

Weren’t Hipwood and Himmelberg NGA/zone picks? Curnow had some kind of run in from memory shortly before the draft that may have given us some doubts. It remains a bit stuff up though.

He did a great job on Lever against us and got on the scoreboard plus some goal assists. I can’t comment much beyond that but I saw enough in that game to be pleased with this. Has talent.

Shelley Heath is the definition of underrated. What a star!

Agree 100%. The Schache omission is absurd. He cannot get anywhere near our AFL finals team 🙏🏼

Broken foot I’d say from looking at the mechanism. So unlucky. He having a laugh on the bench so hopefully he’s been told the news might be so bad

Sounds like you want Nick Watson!

And if the AFL give them Sanders it’s an absolute farce. End of first round compo for McKay. End of first round priority pick. Done!

Financial and age. He needs a contract over 800k/yr, at least 3 years. Are the dons really doing that? Paying him in top 5% of players, really?!

We are light on for talls. Joel Smith should be sub IMO.

And we tried hard to trade multiple high picks for Bailey Humphrey last year as well

Could it be Serong?

They have a tough run home including Ess away, geel home and away, coll home, freo away and another showdown. We will know a lot more about them in a few weeks.

We have been having too much travel and short breaks in recent weeks to start loading before this week. The next three weeks seem well set up for some higher conditioning loads.

Seen a bit from Richmond fans about their young players but even though they were missing a few, our side was easily younger than theirs (25y 202 days to 26y 129) and less experienced (by 173 games). Nank and Broad would have been useful but the presence of Lynch may well have encouraged more high balls into 50 which is usually to our benefit. May generally does well against him. Jack Graham is mediocre. I think the effect of their outs has been overplayed.

Adelaide’s pressure is excellent but gee Freo have looked bad so far. Jackson has had a couple of moments where he just misses having the quality midfield to give it off to.

I watched the full game and Howes did play well. He was very neat, I expect his disposal efficiency was high, but lacked dare with his possessions. A lot of uncontested play out of the back half and most of his kicks would be been short chips. Regardless, it was very good signs for the future. Tomlinson was a clear BOG. McDonald next best IMO, excellent contested marking and was aggressive in playing on (which didn't always come off but I think it is how Goody wants them playing). His kicking was off early but improved. Monro was typically excellent. Typical Dunstan game (plenty of ball but wasteful). AMW and Sestan had their moments. Laurie played confidently. Great game for Jefferson but he is still a long way from AFL level due to his lack of strength. Smith and K Turner were pretty good without standing out. Adams has a long way to go IMO but had a few nice touches.

This was pretty much my thesis for thinking/hoping that they might miss finals. A few more injuries and they’ll be in trouble. Surely they will take care of north this week though.

Anyone got access to this? Did Collingwood I think they got unders for Henry, Grundy or both? https://t.co/tjNE8n8fU3
