Yeah, you just don't feed them in a while.

Love that team. But I'd like an extra small in the forward half please. And probably a tall up the other end in Turner.

When up and going, they're as big as Collingwood, Carlton and Richmond. There's still a reasonable drop off.

I'd rather Smith in that mix. It was Smith and Fritta that rotated on Moore on KB. TMac is too slow to play on Moore, I reckon. Unless TMac can drag Moore up the ground, but that makes his intercept marking potentially more dangerous. It's a tough one.

We may also want to drag Quaynor up the ground by playing Kozzy higher, but I still think in a big pressure final, I'd back Kozzy one out in the square. And I rate Quaynor very highly.

Not much haha. He's probably off too!

Merrett was on the bench. Yep, we'd comfortably take care of that team. We'd have to clone Trac of course.

Congrats Trac, but someone like Zach Merrett ahead of Viney? Are you [censored] kidding me?

DC, you must be shattered, mate, you've been providing great updates all the way along, and bloody @dazzledavey36 pips you at the post. 🤣

Agreed, but we saw what the Bulldogs just did with Mitch Hannan. I'd say Melksham will retire and Dunstan might get another year.

Tom Lynch for two years please. Otherwise, Naughton please. Thanks very much. Is that all we have to do for it to come true?

Ooooh, here we go. Demonland's time to shine.

Why are you shouting the whole time, Picket? My internet ears hurt.

We were not the two best sides in it that year...

It's not a huge elephant room. We wanted to keep him and were [censored] off when he sought a trade to GWS, when we were giving him game time, had invested in his development as an NGA and then a primary listed player.

Yep, I'd be getting in his ear at the end of this season and saying Max has one year to go (particularly if we win the flag this year), and the ruck mantel at Melbourne is yours from 2025.

It was the right move from both parties.

I was behind him, so we knew as soon as it left his boot. Amazing.

Also, you never had the same sorts of roars in the 2021 finals because most of the real fans weren't there.

How spine-tingling is that roar when he nails it? So good. ❤️😍

One of many fascinating sub plots to come in this game. I seriously cannot remember a more evenly poised QF. Should be a cracker and hopefully reignites the rivalry that has become more driven by our side than theirs. We win and go on to win the flag and the rivalry is legit again. First time we've both been legit contenders and have met in a final in for 59 years.

I dunno. I actually think he's in the Melksham mould of defensive forward. He can play on a tall, jump on their head or bring the ball to ground minimum. He's probably not as good a kick as Jake, but he's reasonable.

Murphy will play on JVR, I reckon, and there's Maynard too. They've got plenty of defensive options. It's more about making them accountable and hurting them on turnover and bringing the ball to ground to prevent the intercept.

Smith and Fritta both played on Moore last time and Fritta had 6 scoring shots.

Who's first for CPs mate? Any idea?
