The only game we absolutely should have lost -- as in, we were never really *there* to win -- was St Kilda. North and Essendon were both very winnable games. We could have easily been 6-1 at this point, and I suspect a more experienced outfit would have been. 4-3 is very good imo. Of the four games we *should* have won -- Pies, Tigers, Bombers, Suns -- we have won three. That is a three-game improvement on recent years when we would have dropped all of them.

Goneski.

Melbourne by 5-7 goals.

Don't be so surprised, though. Been in the system a while and is a competent backup ruckman that does great ruck work. Just can't get around the ground or find the ball. He'd definitely get picked up.

I am a teacher of love and life. You are all my pupils. And you're all failing. Miserably.

Gone.

It's extremely winnable. Bulldogs can't be underrated. They are a good side. On the MCG in potentially wet, heavy conditions will work in our favour. Must play the game on our terms.

Will come back to haunt us. We'd be in the 8 now and looking real good.

It was a bad call. Goldstein interferes with the other ruckman at every single contest, and almost always makes head-high contact for close to zero calls against him. In that call, he was already off the ground, still made contact with the ball, and made a clear tap down to a teammate. Bad call at that point in the game.

Maybe he's...not even real.

And I am explaining why he is "boring". I interpret it as just being a straight arrow *in response to* his father.

Bit rough. Was raised by Gablett Snt, who we all know what he's like, and who is considered the greatest of all time. Not surprising that amidst his dad's drug and social issues that Jnr found God and buckled down a bit. I certainly see that his personality and demeanour has a lot to do with that, not wanting to turn into Ablett Snr 2.0. They're chalk and cheese. Ablett Snr didn't even know his teammate's names.

He's suffered quite a few niggling injuries.

Next week probably the biggest test of the season. Dogs looked very good tonight.

Hate to be the devil's advocate here but we have major defensive issues. Teams score far too often when going forward against us. Big test against the Dogs next week. One of the best attacking teams vs one of the best defensive teams. They have so many talls.

Ridiculous post. Tradeable.

81-158

This is probably the better of the commentary teams. Although Lynch sounds like he's downed a few tinnies.

Would love 10 or 11 for the quarter.

Jetta better at spoiling Lynch than Garland and McDonald.

No really bad calls. Suns give away lazy free kicks.

Shocking effort.

That is McDonald's goal. Terrible tackle on Lynch. Left him, Lynch ran on and delivered it forward.

I'm scared.

I'd rather just have a night on the [censored] and darts with him. Viney, on the other hand
