Welcome to playing footy in Melbourne Jonathan where nothing is kept secret. Would have no idea if he has done this stuff in the past and got away with it but maybe it's a good thing he's been called out on this. Maybe he does need help but I hate the way they play the mental health card. We are seeing people who commit crimes play the mental health card and now him. Hopefully he sorts himself out and gets back on the field because the way his career is going he will be remembered for his off field work.

If I was him, Id be focusing on trying to get fit and play a full season. I mean seriously the guy is 27 and he is doing this sort of stuff. I'd be more concerned that he is mentioning doing coke. Anyway not very bright when he has Clarko as a coach. I'm sure he'd have a few stern words.

I wonder how secure Brodie Grundy is feeling. He signed a 7 year deal but clearly that doesn't mean much at theat club.

Ha so glad the bummers didn't get Dunkley. But gee the dogs have a powerful midfield now with Treloar thrown in there. The pies fans are going nuts and clearly Stephenson is not happy either. Bucks was pretty honest in that phone call with him. Will be interesting to see what happens to the pies next year.

Ok so 2021 we really have no excuses. We have a solid backline, a great ruckman and classy midfield and now a reliable forward and not a bad forward line. Message to our midfield. Don's stuff around with short kicks or silly handpasses, just kick it in long to Ben. Looking forward to seeing what he can do and now this should help weiderman because he won't get the number 1 defender anymore.

So much for Clayton Oliver wanting out of the club. Stupid rumour.

I don't know, I still thought Mitch could offer something. But good luck to him at the dogs. Him kicking that goal against geelong in the final will always stand out.

So have we actually started a discussion with nth about Ben? I'd assume we had but I have heard nothing only that it will likely get done. If it doesn't we are going to have egg on our faces.

This is just a really really bad breakup and it just went wrong. The pies fans are filthy and want answers. Not sure where Adam will ended up but it will be odd if it's at another melbourne club. I mean the pies think he will not cope with his wife away but as he has said it's something they did discuss. Id have him.

See what happens when a club sticks with a coach? Not saying Goody will be as successful but if you stick to a plan one day it may work. Gee Gary Rohan goes missing in grand finals. Only 5 possessions last night. Hawkins only the 1 and danger was pretty well held.

For those saying we passed on dusty, stop complaining. We didn't have any leadership back then like a cotchin to take under his wing and he would have left us years ago when we were a rabble. He would have got so frustrated with us.

geelong just look old and slow this final quarter, whereas richmond just have all this energy. At least get a goal geelong and make it interesting.

Well 1 more quarter to go. I was expecting it to be this close. Plenty of players need to lift from both teams. Riewoldt, lynch, rohan and hawkins need to start kicking goals.

Sheppard just save the entertainment.

It feels like just a normal sat night home and away game to me.

2 streakers, must be local brisbane bogans. anyone hear BT say it may be Ablett's knee when he is clearly holding his shoulder? Bruce is like I think it's his shoulder BT. anyway good come back by the cats after the tigs started well. dangerfield surely gets a week or 2 for that. The tribunal seem to go by the outcome of the player and Vlaustin is not coming back on.

God there is still an hour to go. Thank god we aren't playing. Id be a wreck by now.

Gee I seriously thought he'd stay. Imagine that phone call to Leon Cameron. This is going to hurt the giants big time and set them back. However in saying that yes he is a key forward and we all know how good he is but he wasn't great this season. He is very hot and cold. Maybe he is frustrated with the lack of success that the giants haven't reached yet. Well I guess we aren't in the running but I'd rather see him at geelong than collingwood or essendon.

extra time

Ugh at least if Port got in we could go for them. But geelong v richmond yuck. The worst part is we have to wait all evening for it. If richmond win it there will be no fan fare at punt rd. I doubt dan would want people cramming in, geelong on the other hand would be able to. It would have been nice to see different teams compete for it but no it's the same again, even though geelong haven't played in a gf for 9 years. Hopefully the storm win the following night that's all I care about.

Geelong just dominating, but the lions are still in this. That missed shot by Hipwood was a disgrace. Directly in front, no excuses.

Oh Port just faltered in a prelim. Richmond's defence was very good and they didn't allow Dixon to impact at all. Port just seemed to lose there structure and continued to bomb it in allowing Nankervis to mark it.

Gee Dusty just turns up his game in the finals.

Have to admire a young kid like Dursma taking it to Lynch, not sure if something was said earlier to make him react like that but the danger is you wake the sleeping giant and motivate him and his team. hope it doesn't backfire on the young kid but good comeback by port.

Will be flicking between the port/tigs game and the storm prelim. Go the storm.
