whatwhat say what

last night was a tough watch but seemed cater made for our defensive lockdown style geriatrics? bloods filth? footscray? jokers? peptides? aints? carltank? only one other 'pretty sure i've got that tip' tip this week, with a lot more uncertainty

smith should be helped by being able to return to training after covid protocols have expired; whenever they will expire, he should be able to be back in training by wednesday at the latest next week it wouldn't surprise if there was some random player miss as a result of entering into the protocols - will depend upon WHERE on the ground they come out of as to who the next cab off the rank may be, but it would seem it would be: bedford for pressure forward dunstan for inside mid baker for outside runner j smith for defender that said, if no one else is ruled out as a result of isolation requirements, it's hard to see many changes being made... OUT: weideman, tomlinson IN: sideshow bob, j smith

not only is he the best ruckman i've ever seen at the dees - since mid-80s - but he's almost the most 'ruckmen...' of ruckmen; that missed snap that actually went the opposite way intended was PURE ruckman... but what i loved about it is that he then chased, tackled, harassed and arguably should've won a free for incorrect disposal but instead gave the free away brilliant ruckman, brilliant leader, brilliant off the field

some highlights from page 2 of the pear bf post-game thread... Lost our last 5, 4 of those at AO. But yeah, we're on the right track just need to work harder. It was a dishonest performance, playing keepings off and trying to control the ball with slow sideways kicks in defence. It was purposely orchestrated to keep the margin close, and for the coaches to pat themselves on the back with a 5 goal loss to Melbourne. A few late goals when the Demons put the cue in the rack means nothing. It was a pathetic performance, a team that is disconnected, poorly skilled with a dysfunctional forward line. If you just looked at the score and saw that we lost by 32 points it doesn't seem that bad. In reality we should've lost by 10 goals. A goalless half was disgusting and something that Port has never dished up in the AFL before. The pressure on Ken continues to build. A demon player almost broke sweat That was the equivalent of a bye for the dees It's a shame Melbourne couldn't put their foot down but I guess they got bored. Why bother injuring yourself against a bottom 2 side Jeebus early April and the season's done. Who woulda thunk it

rip ken west (and also probably ken hinkley's coaching career)

See: Moore, Darcy

It’s Adelaide; barely changed in 20 years let alone 10

all the latest rage would totally get an nft of bang^4 or max^5 or max after the siren

they've completely removed the benefits to the clubs of having an nga by making no players available inside the top 40 picks - these days, that's nearly 3/4 of the draft picks used! surely it should just be round 1, if any

that second goal from howes is very, very exciting - goes back with the flight, takes the mark, runs into an open goal kid looks goodly

it'll top out at about 25k i think

mine too; #1 is the 6-1 for best players after another glorious victory pear were good in rd 1 up until 3/4 time, hopeless in rd 2, good in rd 3 up until 3/4 time... they have been significantly hit by injury to key position players in particular, but i fear a regular top 4 side who are facing a 0-4 start if they lose this thursday

if he's bottom age this year i presume that means he's draft eligible next season?

yes, the 'colon-wood' chant when the filth win
