Can't blame the defense either the ball is just coming in again and again. All on the midfield so far.

It starts at the contest. Get some body on them and win the hard ball.

Weid should just stay in the goal line and take one of their defenders out of the contest. Can't do anything else.

Yep smashing us out of the middle and we can't transition out of defence. Clarry needs to lift big time.

They need to stick some marke but to be fair the ball lived in Brisbane's forward half

Look at the hoops SA is making the Pies jump through - no thanks

Not to mention they tend to follow successful club's!

Different states - it is not a public holiday in WA or Queensland I believe

The Dalai Lama has a long memory and will never excuse the actions of Wallis, Long, Hardwick, Solomon and the Johnsons in the 200 GF.

This can't be underestimated. One of my questions I submitted for the zoom meeting they did last year was what sort of induction into the club do new recruits undertake? I think it's important they get schooled on the history of the club to make them appreciate where they are, develop their love for the club and make it more of a footy club rather than just a team. Great to hear Williams is doing this with the new recruits.

True, many were predicting them for the spoon.

A lot of them are ex-Fitzroy supporters so may be more humble considering what they've been through?

Well he's been dropped for Neale so don't have to worry about being infuriated by him now ?

WA doesn't have a public holiday on June 14th is the issue though. Plus additional travel for players.

Neale is meant to be playing I believe

Most hate-able player in the league - who was it that had the reverse Brownlow thread for unpopular players on here? This f1og wins it by a country mile.

Last year the Lions went in with a clear plan to belt Max around the head, jumped into him in marking contests and block him off the footy. Was bloody infuriating to watch. Hopefully we learnt from that and are ready to protect Max this week as he has copped it particularly since the Tigers game.

Regardless of who caused it they are still within their rights to take measures to ensure it doesn't spread in their state. The requirements they are imposing on Collingwood seem idiotic though (if this happened to us a few weeks back I'd be furious).

Just play it at the G, I doubt they'll get more than a handful of people in Sydney so can't see the point.

You can't make this stuff up. I don't understand why they don't just ban spectators for this game if they are so concerned???

Let's say one of them does contract covid from a Collingwood player. What is a 2 day iso with a negative test going to prove? Isn't it true that some people may not test positive til days later l, hence the 14 day quarantine periods (which in themselves don't seem sufficient)

A doctor of journalism!

Could bring forward the WCE/Tigers game in its place so the Tigers have to spend one less week in Perth. Win/win.

That's true, I was more referring to his trip into NSW. Waiting a week to get tested and travelling around while symptomatic was idiotic.
