P-man

I’d have to watch again to see how many times he was the culprit. I know from previous weeks he can be exposed but overall I thought he was more than solid today.

Gus stepped up today. 16 contested possessions and 8 clearances to go with his 7 tackles. A couple of fantastic kicks going inside 50 as well. .

Watson has obvious disdain for us. He was always going to call that touched.

Does hands in the back exist any more? All these ridiculous rule changes and one of the most basic ones seems to have gone completely out the window.

Great to see the Rev at the game

Can chalk up May for 1 or 2 of those a game. Love him but geeze they hurt.

Well on the way to K Pickett 3 votes.

Need to replicate this midfield time for Koz every week.

Geeze, can David King have a bigger hard on for Collingwood? Made worse listening to him talking about the size of gap between us and them. We did beat them a few weeks ago, right? It felt pretty real. Maybe I dreamt it. Nope, I just checked the score. We definitely beat them.

Yeah okay you lot have swung me. I like what Spargs brings to the table when in form, but at this point in time Chandler has more to offer in offence and defence.

Grundy back to main ruck. Gawn isn’t working. Yeah nah just the one change for mine. Tommo for Petty regardless of how he pulls up. Tommo should’ve never been dropped in the first place so simply righting a previous wrong.

Great to see you on here Ronny. Congrats mate.

I had to rewind and watch it a few times just to make sure I’d seen what I’d just seen. How the good people at AFL HQ left it out of the game highlights package I’ll never know.

Loved that Richo declared there were 3 teams in the premiership race halfway through the third quarter, and was rendered speechless at full time.

Genuinely rapt for Melksham. Has struggled to win over a few fans along the way but like him or not he just forced his way into Demon folklore. Brilliant.

Just to play devil’s advocate, Melbourne are almost a weekly discussion point on On The Couch, primarily due to the show being hosted by Garry Lyon. Good or bad, Melbourne are likely to feature on the show. Same with his SEN slot. We get more airplay than several other clubs due to that alone. I don’t mind at all if the commentary is negative, as long as we’re being talked about. While Lyon has a strong media presence (much to the chagrin of some), that’s a guarantee.

Positives: Maysy. Trac remembering where the big sticks are. 4 points.

They should probably give the song a miss tonight.

Max looks as slow as I can remember seeing him.

So much this.

186 in genuine danger here. Depends on if the Swans tire or show mercy.

You know you’re acting like a proper [censored] when Brayden Maynard is the voice of reason.

The value of an in-form Salem can’t be overstated. He was excellent today. Brought the physicality and composure in key moments. Will be massive for us at the pointy end.

Yep, that felt like a smashing. Awesome performance, goalkicking aside.

Tommo is having some game.
