Bitter but optimistic

How dare you dazzle - @picket fencewanted to open this thread!

Jesus Gnash - obviously we don't know the details but, depending on severity, that is a potentially long term injury. Lever demonstrated that he can run the show down back but Petty is a long way off like for like for May . He will probably get a chance but could we consider Tmac back and BBB ?

May would have to be very doubtful under concussion protocols. I also wonder whether they reckon this game is when BBB gets a run It's a winning team so - Interesting times!

Really difficult - which I'm really happy about Gawn - The captain showed the way - again Petracca Got plenty of it and love the muscle he provides Lever - Lead the defence Viney - His beastly best Clarrie - You just cant leave him out because he he gets the pill so often Kossie - Brilliant but more importantly he is creating pressure and match up problems. Oppo coaches are going to burn up energy wondering how to contain him Apologies to about 15 others

A huge team effort! Doubters and cynics be silent ! WE ARE BACK !!!!!!!

Now we stand up and show we are fair dinkum No excuses ! we must win on our merits

[censored] umpires !!! You have got to be [censored] kidding!!!!’

Selwood complaining about a high free FMD!

Paying $ 2.00 yesterday

I have no concerns about this game. Comfortable win for the Dees Im predicting Langdon as BOG

Carlton and Gold Coast are both sh it. Either should be a 4 point given for us - if we’re fair dinkum

I doubt you're playing AFL SWYL !!!!!!!

[censored] Jack for missing that goal. I put Dees and Toiges in a double.

I'm sure it will stand out nicely on your next trip to the fleshpots of Asia SWYL !!

Wadda ... there is no way I could hope for an Essendon win i hate the [censored] !!

Question!!! For statistical purposes is the player who kicks out credited with a disposal once he leaves the goal square?

Three rounds in is too early to be making definitive calls on any teams form or finals chances But ..... FFS ...... I’ll celebrate a three zip start anytime!

"lies, damned lies and statistics"

What I really like about those stats is Luke Jackson covering 15.4 kms! Astounding for , basically, a big kid!!!

Well it wasn't torture for me Ethan.

The maid is now a believer!

Max _ That was a massive and dominant game. Captains' game. Kossie - We've picked up a future super star. Langdon - Possibly the trade that wins us a flag Could spread them around but Hunt Petracca Salem

That's a giant win! Three zip !!!! We are serious contenders !!! Max - what a captain! Kozzie - just wow !!!!!!

You’re all class picket! I reckon we’ll be drunkenly singing the song about the same time Make sure you’re in tune!
