They were lucky to make it past the semis, the Giants choked big time against them (and Daniher played out of his skin).

Said the same thing to my son when he kicked it

Hey at least you can say you got to see the great Allen Jakovich's debut even if it was an ignominious team performance. I've only been to one interstate game ever, was at the Gabba in 1995 sitting almost directly behind where Shaun Smith took the mark of the century.

Reduce the time between goals they allow for ads and quarters will be shorter. Reduce it by 15 seconds and the quarter is 3m 15s shorter already

His pressure work this year has been phenomenal

Link?

The commentators (on Kayo) trying to get Mills off are a disgrace. Jumped in the air, bumped, got Spargo high, Spargo was sent off for a HIA. That's 2-3 weeks even if Spargo did pass the HIA.

Good to see you taking the positives out of this 10 goal win mate 🤦‍♂️

Outstanding performance Demons, getting some reward for effort on the scoreboard now. We really should've been 10 goals up at half time but this is a great win, we smashed them everywhere around the ground, our structures behind the ball and our pressure was the best it's been in a long time. Let's go to Alice next week and even up the ledger.

This has been a domination everywhere but the scoreboard. That 2nd quarter hurt but better in the 3rd. Run it out now boys, 30 minutes to go.

They have a solid group of kids as well, should be performing better than this. Maybe their young players while consistently good performers will never get to that elite level.

Funny, I remember a Collingwood supporter yelling out something derogatory about Lynden Dunn's first name and I responded "that's rich coming from a team with a Tarkyn".

My TV is wired via ethernet so no wifi issues. Will let it buffer for a bit longer but I don't think it's that as it only happens on android TV app. I think it's just kayo having a [censored] app but wasn't sure if others experience the same issues.

It has been such a pleasure not having to listen to BT, Hamish and the other channel 7 boofheads this year. I think I'm actually watching more footy because of it. Question about Kayo, does anyone else regularly get the stuttering frames? It seems to only happen on the Android TV (not apple tv, iPad etc) and not sure but possibly only when watching the 4K games. I don't get the drop in quality making it blurry but I do get the stuttering and it happens multiple times every single game. Really frustrating, it must be the Android TV app I'm presuming but wondering if anyone else gets it.

Yep and my son was really looking forward to going but he's been sick so we had to cancel. Surprised it wasn't more widely marketed, I got an email a couple of weeks back but that was it.

Of all the supporter groups to pull this one out! The Chardonnay sippers from Sydney must be saying this with tongue in cheek surely. Some (lots of?) people are just absolute grubs, especially when they feel shielded by the anonymity of the mob.

True but then what's the excuse if he's not recalled next week?

And Petty can think himself lucky, would've thought he'd be more likely to be dropped and Turner moved forward. TMac very stiff.

I hope Melbourne supporters turn out for this one, Tracs 200th, 19 degrees with minimal or no rain, Sunday afternoon coming off a great win. No excuses! Show the team and Trac your support

Have a look at the other work Spargo does, his defensive work is very good.

You would've sacked Sheedy after the 92 season right?

Earlier in the season I thought he had "lost the players" - not that they hated playing for him but that the message was stake and no longer cutting through. I think that's proven to be false and barring any unforeseen circumstances he will definitely be coaching round 1 next year. It's not about wins and losses but how we play, losing to North by 10 goals and Essendon by 40 pts was inexcusable. We still have plenty to work on but mostly it's to do with skill execution. Clean up those basic errors and we would have beat Brisbane by a few goals and should have beat Hawks (or lost by a slim margin if they were able to run over us). The next two weeks are critical but the Kings Bday game looms large. We simply cannot afford to be blown away by the Pies and at some point we need to put our foot down and stop being their playthings. We simply must make a statement in that game.

He still could have been viewing that incident though, they weren't saying it as though he had been dragged for it just that he was shown the vision the next time he came to the bench.

Yeah the other option is push Viney to HF to play that pressure role ahead of Sharp, Spargo or Sparrow. They mentioned it On The Couch last night and how Viney out also allowed more mid time for Rivers which you'd like to see continue.
