Absolutely disgraceful by the HS someone from the club (Pert or Green) needs to call this witch hunt out.

Perhaps he’s waiting for next year when Collingwood have a first round draft pick in the top5

Is this demonland’s jumping the shark moment?

Didn’t Harrison Petty say he wanted to be closer to family in SA this time last year, and then signed not that long ago for a couple more years? Seemed like they managed to work through that “crisis”

Roo out with a groin injury according to C7

Harris killed us last game. Focus on stopping Vlaustin this week and Tom Stewart next week? Maybe that’s the role they have in mind.

Plus it’s a good way of applying a handicap. Seems like we are the only team amongst the top ranked who get 2 of them. surprised Carlton got 1

As bad as we were last night at least I felt there was effort and pride not to let it become a smashing. Imagine being a dogs supporter.

A couple of times when he has accelerated into a ground ball, grabbed it cleanly, and exited a pack before anyone can touch him (as though time has stopped) reminds me of one of our greatest players.

kudos to 2 of the favourite whipping boys. Seeing Tmac on the backline made me very nervous but watching him really closely at the game I thought he was fantastic. He made great decisions about when to play off and support other defenders and when to lock on one on one. I was expecting a howler or 3 with the ball, but his disposal was as good as any of the other defenders today, taking short and powerful kicks that hit the targets with 83% efficiency (according to the stats). also BBB - presented well, clunked a few, but used his gogogadget arms to get the ball to the ground in pretty much every contest he was involved in. both of them have bigger challenges ahead, but I was shocked we picked both this week after compromised pre-seasons, and I was wrong.

Loving the booing from the gws crowd notable that the commentary team are ignoring the reason for it

i heard from a call out volunteer that we are in front of last years' comparative figure by around 1k or so - but given our season starts in 3 days I am not sure whether this is good or bad

Speaking of media, why isn’t there a suggestion that the launch of a premiership film by the Pies tonight, a week before the next season starts, a case of over-celebration/ drinking their own bath water?

Getting ready for all the comments about our poor disposal

Learning the cost of turnovers when we try and play more quickly and take the game on leaves the defense open (which it hasn’t been for 3 years) good to learn the risk/return and who we don’t want to have the exit disposal now.
