Wouldn’t it be great for the Scum to get done next week by the Pies and not make finals. Will be barracking hard for the Pies next week. Ewwwwwwwwwwww.

Am I the only one that thinks Grundy should be the #1 ruck with Max the extra tall in the forward line? Have Max and Grundy rotating with each other 70/30split. Max stays fresh, Brodie gets his ruck spot. Simples.

No to Haynes, yes to Taylor.

I think the Laurie inclusion is a pre-emptive warning shot at our smalls that they have to be on their game, or they too face the axe .

We'll win this week because - Goody has been bashed in the media and the boy's love for him will have them motivated - It's Max's 200th - We win and we are a lock for top 4, probably with the aim of taking on the Pies in a 1v4 QF. - Most importantly, because we are a far superior team to the Hawks

That would be early 2020, not 2021.

What made Bowey so good towards the end of 2021 was his willingness to take the game on. He’s not been as daring this year. As for Salem, he is a pretty slow player of the ball. How often does he quickly move the ball on? This is why Rivers shines. He has the skills of Salem, the dare of an early Bowey and more physicality than the both of them combined. When he’s going at full tilt, there are few players better to watch imo.

By far and away our most improved this year. When he’s on we are devastating.

Totally agree. Umpires influence the outcomes of games, those that don’t think so are kidding themselves. There was no conclusive evidence that the ball was or wasn’t touched on the line. How do we know that it wasn’t touched? Either way, with such poor technology being adopted and HQ’s refusal to resolve it, it is inevitable that it will cost a team a premiership in future. As for being too nice a club, instead of focusing our attention on such an issue, I’d rather we concentrate on our lapses in pressure and our lack of taking the initiative in games. We are simply way too defensively minded. We need to come out and put the game to bed early against the Hawks, as the longer they are in it the more their confidence will grow and our defensive mindset will suffocate us.

Yep umpiring remains a blight on the game. The introduction of a 4th umpire has only added to the inconsistency and the adjudication of a supposed ‘elite’ level of sport remains a farce. Prime example also last night with Jeremy Cameron clearly being OOB when marking and when also receiving a handball.

Just hope both teams clobber the bejeezus out of each other

That club is so incestuous, they can wallow in the middle of the table for all eternity and still it wouldn’t be long enough.

Nope nope nope, I’m done with my dormant grass for another year. Bring in the push green growth 😁

Toby Greene, though he’s been flying pretty straight recently

I’m done with winter. Bring on grass growing season!!!

You’ve got to be kidding. The guy with the biggest silver spoon up his [censored]?

Trade end of year. Should’ve let him go to the bummers last year. Will also free up cap space.

Very lazy start. Do they not know that top 2 is up for grabs?

DE at 58%. Need to fix that up.

Very flat start

That’s ok. I’m sure Clarrie would be happier with multiple premiership medals

The only thing that i dont like about Reid is that he seems to be very right foot dominant. How is he on his left?

Agreed, 500 games is unbelievable. That's the equivalent of umpiring every round including finals for 19 years. He's also one of the better umpires.

Who cares, we’ll wipe the floor with all of them 😋

He has no weapons that set him apart from other average footballers and that’s his problem. A good honest footballer that is suffering from our premiership push
