love the enthusiasm personally i think it's sydney vs the field they're as dominant as puddy tatts in 2022 and us in 2021 if they have a clean run with injury for the remainder of the year, i struggle to see anyone beating them anywhere, anytime, anyhow...but it's a funny ol' game, football... if gc17 win today that's 2 wins separating 2nd and 13th season is crazy even

when they're not professional it's very hard to hold them to account having four on field has made it even more of a farce - four individual decision makers officiating the one game is absolutely absurd i couldn't believe it when i heard it, but recently i think it was mcburney who confirmed that there's only three actually 'officiating' at any time and the fourth in the 'end zone' is effectively on a break during the time they're positioned significantly outside the play it's a joke and the afl refuses to do anything about it cos, of course, it would cost money and there's only one thing that the afl hates more than bad publicity, and that's spending money

hope we're in the ear of josh treacy - young vic tall forward from flagmantle out of contract at the same time as petty, i think?

fwiw i agree about losing dog impacting our window, but i'm pretty sure we also got more 'value' for him than any other trade as i've said before, my mfcss only abated for a couple of months after the premiership until it was confirmed that he a) never got a premiership tattoo and ii) talk about him signing an extension stopped and 3) he put any such further talks on hold i think he's a freak of a player; i think windsor can be very special too but at the moment... premierships with mfc: 1 finals with freo: 0 (that will change this year i would think)

jefferson + adams + windsor = dog windsor is going to be a star dog already is a star let's wait and see on the tall kids

as of next year, kayo / foxtel has a lockout on saturday football for the first 8 rounds of each season c7 only has rights to 3 games a round - thursday, friday nights, and sunday arvo i don't think it's realised just how much that is going to effect people's viewing habits of footy from 2025 onwards foxtel used to hover at around that 35% household penetration and was incredibly profitable but the advent of streaming has completely changed that model, obviously

cats look a lot better without hawkins

close contest is an entertaining one first half was free-flowing and both sides tightened up defensively in the second half
-
the marquee match-up we've all been waiting for
-
north are arguably one of the form teams in the competition over the last month or so another side that are good to watch too with quick ball movement
-
a close game is one worth watching? high scoring footy too

crom - cos the crows mistakenly printed 'go the crom' on official merch once and it's stuck with their fanbase; they've even produced merch mocking themselves about it, i believe flagmantle - it's the aspirational name their own fanbase gave to themselves in the year they got beaten by the hawks in the grand final in the mid 2010s; meth coke fans call them 'flogmantle' in response pear - cos their fans all sound like they're saying 'carn the pear' when they say 'carn the power' and it has, like the crom, been adopted by their own fanbase as a term of affection for the team
