P-man

Be that as it may, it’s a misrepresentation so say he’s been poor since returning to the side.

Salem last week had 22 disposals, 453m gained at 83% DE and 6 tackles (2nd behind Oliver). He has not been poor since returning from injury and is absolutely not getting dropped. He was poor tonight but he had a lot of mates..

Tonight was one of those days when nothing really worked. Overdid it by hand early and didn’t pay enough respect to their pressure. Obliterated at stoppage. Routinely beaten in the air. Again. When Gawn and Jackson are well down coupled with our horrendous forward entries and our predictable love affair with kicking down the line coming out of defense, we get exposed. Benny Brown was decent early but the gulf between their forwards and ours tonight was there for all to see. Our smalls were poor and Fritta should be read the riot act about his selfishness. It’s becoming habit. We will be better next time around but one thing we absolutely can’t afford to repeat is getting smashed to that degree in clearances. It’s crucial to both our game and modern footy in general.

Oh well. To the post match thread!

That Bedford fumble. Little moments matter so much in games like this.

Huge.

Honestly I’ll laugh my head off if we can snatch this.

Make that minus 18.

Wow. Worst clearance differential since 2018. Minus 17.

Yep, seeing the winner celebrate was going to be vomit worthy no matter the outcome.

Tigs look annoyingly ominous. Melbourne v Richmond GF would be off the scale.

My god Jack Viney is fun to watch when he plays like that.

Solid turnout tonight. Keep it up guys and girls. We’re back in business.

6. Viney 5. Lever 4. Oliver 3. Jackson 2. Harmes 1. Gus HM: Fritta, Nib, Trac

Among Viney’s top 5 games for the club? Has to be up there.

She knows her footy 👍

6.6 to 1 gift.

Don’t concede don’t concede don’t concede don’t concede…

Oh Maysy. That hurts.

Bedford oh baby!

Liking his game so far. Having a proper dip.

Can we get a HTB or….

Lever immeasurably better with May back in.

To be fair we haven’t looked like a top 2 side for a month or more.

Worrying signs going forward. Connection showing basically no signs of improvement on previous weeks.
