whatwhat say what

#fearthebeard set to become #fearthefro for the next part of the season...

saints must be loving this.

carlton drag everyone down to their level - it's very smart coaching really. force the oppo to go wide, make every contest count.

this season is officially nuts.

hoping the bluebaggers can keep this going

look, suffice to say, we can expect spencer to be #1 ruck for a morr significant length of the season than ever anticipated.

gw$ are going to have to lose some more mids. as we all know, north have thrown the chequebook at kelly. whitfield has long been rumoured to leave for hawthorn. it'll be interesting to see where they go, if they go.

that's a big blow if vince is gone with an injury.

injuries and suspensions to key players really hurt, as does the bizarre vfl season set-up where we're four rounds into the afl season and the vfl is yet to kick off. makes zero sense. can't see the likes of brayshaw coming straight back in as his 'role' of a half forward who rolls into the stoppages was played well by anb yesterday, chip backwards aside, who got plenty of it, used it okay-ish, and tackles and causes defensive pressure. weideman got a bath but is probably worth persevering with as, well, we ain't got much options due to the injuries / suspension / lack of exposed form. judging from the comments at the presser, the forward structure will remain intact. IN: spencer OUT: gawn B: Jetta - T. McDonald - Melksham HB: Hunt - O. McDonald - Vince C: Stretch - Jones - Salem HF: Petracca - Weideman - Kent F: Watts - Smith - Garlett Foll: Spencer - Oliver - Viney I/C: Tyson - Hannan - Neal-Bullen - Harmes no hogan, lewis, hibberd, gawn from definite best 22. probably our worst looking side for balance in two seasons?

Freo were great.

Crows are starting to pull away from the Power. They were like us in Q2 - dominant everywhere except the scoreboard. Now they're making their opportunities count.

6 Watts 5 Jones 4 Hunt 3 Viney 2 Stretch 1 Oliver edit: ANB would've got 3 votes but the kick backwards to O Mac was unforgivable

Very disappointing loss.

Spencer get thru ok I hope; we are going to need him for next little while

Stretch is a good n

you can't take the legs out from under someone - free kick every day of the week, and lucky not to snap pendlebury's legs in half.

don't like all the praise after two (outstanding) games - would prefer to keep him under wraps and out of the media spotlight for a few more rounds as yet.

Meth Coke in Perth and the GW$ - Swans could be 0-5

Sydney managed to look old and slow and young and tentative at the same time at times tonight. What an exciting win for the Pies. They're pretty ordinary but they really do crack in.

Well that was exciting

first decent thing treloar has done tonight right there - and yep, it looked magnificent. he does something useful with the ball i reckon 1 in 3 times, and he actually managed to join 3 together in that passage of play. goals of the year? what crack is lingy on?

the kicking in this game is so bad

cheers dpositive, appreciate it. roos' defence-first mantra made so much sense; they really did have to break down our team's game in order to build it up again.

buddy every day.

no, but if they're anything worse than 2-4 going into the game against carlton in round 7 he will be.
