Better but the dogs have the breeze in the 3rd so we need to keep the pressure up. May has been magnificent for us. Fritta bounced back with a nice goal. Presuss finally doing what he had to do. He is taller and much more bigger than english. He needs to dominate those ruck contests and he started to hit it in the right spots.

That wind is just causing havoc. However we cannot lay a tackle, man up or find a target. The dogs players seem to be free and we can't get it out of our backline.

Hannan not bad for a late inclusion though.

Rankine made that last attempt on 3/4 time hardewr than it needed to be. This is a boring game but good to see footy back in darwin.

Why bring up something that happened 20 years ago?What's crying got to do with lynch having cheap shots off the ball? David called him a boofhead. No need to get personal dimma. Also where is the proof that the ox was in tears? I've never seen footage or a photo. also so what if he was. Does Dimma have an issue with grown men crying? Seriously his mouth works quicker than the brain. A few times he has been in trouble. Don't forget the whole longmire incident this year.

I thought the afl were sick of the behind little punches and wanted to cut it out. I bet if that was sparrow or lockhart that did that they would have been suspended.

It would be great to see GC knock of the tigs tonight.

Say what you want about the free but that kick by Newnes was magnificent. Right up against the boundary.

Straight kicking makes a massive difference. Langdon's games was just awesome and good to see him kick goals. Preuss wow you held your own and he palmed it down to our mids. Surely he stays in next week. Ha laughing at the pies fans whinging on twitter about the umpiring. Just leave Oliver in the centre for all centre bounces. Darren Burgess you are a genius. How you get these players up after 4 or 5 days is genius. Our % is good as well.

need the saints to beat the bummers.

Jace Lever, Bella McDonald + Mila Viney watching on. So adorable

Why we we worried? At what point do you reckon Eddie switched off?

Come one dees. 1 more quarter. What happened to Preuss?

Spot on. That attack on the ball was great and I'm going to admit while you hate to see players lying on the ground like that, I'm glad it wasn't vanders that got the concussion.

Just keep Oliver in the centre square at every bounce. Preuss doing well, better than I thought he'd go. Plus his long kicks have been great. Accurate kicking also helps. Spargo doing well. Just saty down and don't fly for the marks. Just need to tighten down on pendles, adams and steele. But I love how after the pies kick a goal we seem to respond. The umps will relaise they have given us more frees, so no doubt they will try to even it up. Tommy is getting into the game and Weid has looked good. Just keep on going melbourne.

Well today will tell us how much the boys want that 8th spot.

Thought rivers was ok last week and Hannan is always handy. I'm guessing Greg Stafford is still our ruck coach. He will earn his money this week in helping Preuss bring down Grundy. We win we are in the 8 and knock those giants out. Tomorrow will tell us how much the boys want it.

If the giants were a vic based team they would be under so much more scrutiny.

I didn't see any of the game last ngiht but just watched the last 2 minutes of the afl site. Gee the suns had there chances in that time. King could have maybe taken more time to have his shot and probably should have kciked it. Rankine how he did not kick that to the top of the square I will never know. It just had to get there to be pounched through. But that was a good smother by McGrath at the end there because that ellis kick was probably going to at least get a point. On one hand I was happy to at least the bummers not win but on the other hand they still got 2 points. Hopefully the saints rolll them on sunday

Hey why do nth get our 1st round pick at the next draft?

Ok I know nth virtually had no bench in that final quarter but we still had to beat them. Seriously how good was that final quarter. Just goal after goal. Didn't even notice the umpiring in that 2nd half. I must admit going in without gawn and viney I was nervous but Jackson did so well in the ruck and Oliver and Petracca were just awesome. Spargo did some nice things and very courageous of him to go against the flight of the ball with Daw coming the other way. McDonald came into the game. Our % got a boost and we are 9th. Just straighten up our goal kicking and we will be ok. No injuries and a great win. It was a good night.

Ok 16 point lead. We can do this. They are 2 down and on the bench and thompson looked proppy as well. We kicked a bit better. Come on boys bring it home!

Once again we are dominating inside 50s. 27-15 but just can't convert.

Well done Weids, but gee he has missed some sitters. Seriously Goody must be so frustrated with miss after miss.

Brayshaw!!! about bloody time we kicked a goal.
