DEE fence

Me too

I really thought someone would have commented on the similarities between Roy and Jordan before now, or am I cracked? For a laugh, both were at 1st class teams before settling at struggling clubs, both considered hard men, both got slow, both know to verbal. And a shout out to Ted Lasso, incredible script etc, if you haven't seen it get around it. Adore that being decent can be a basis for a TV comedy, love watching it with my kids.

A moment so dear in my heart, have we added it to the JV made me cry thread? lb for lb as lethal as any other player going (I do like how Kossie is giving it a nudge). But unlike Lethal not a dog of a player.

Been saying the same thing all year, running on top of the ground now that his foot injury has been remedied. Also his kicking has more penetration and accuracy.

6. Jack Viney 5. Kysaiah Kropinyeri-Pickett 4. Angus Brayshaw 3. ANB 2. Jordan 1. Petracca

Was anyone else thinking Goodwin would be yelling at the Dr to not review the footage/perform a concussion test. This is a joke, and maybe not a good joke, but I was please no concussion test.

Listening to KU now about Jackson... spew... Have to agree, a female BT...

Calm now, I am happy with the win and not taking anything for granted, but feel it is OK to complain about i50 connection and set shots. We are 9-0 159%. Loved Viney, Gus, and Pickett, ANB steady, we found out Bowey is made of rock. Hope Harmes is ok.

Looked at it twice, not sure, was a single action not two and body was side on, didn't ride him into ground.

Pickett gets votes today too

What time was Bowey hit by Ryan, at work and not watching live everything as it is hard to watch

Hard game to call, feel sorry for the umpires. Poorest quarter for year, no excuse for poor i50 connection, our fwds have oceans of space.

Stream is good

I knew the VoN was gone for me this year when Tiges, Hawks and Saints had their little spurts, my first thought now is 'they will reset and stay calm', last year it was 'oh we are going to give it up here' (edited the expletives out). The fact that my instinctive response has changed is ground breaking. Where I always used to look for little factors that might make things easier for us, I just don't care anymore... interstate travel... yawn. Dominant fwd line.... whatever. Play the top half twice.... Poor them. 52y.o. supported the Dees since 5/6y.o. many many bad memories, the Fitzroy belting at Glen Waverly, 88 GF, Various players leaving Healy/ Spalding, dud recruiting of Moore and Templeton, could go on but we all know them.

where?

It is Jordon vs Rivers, strong arguments for both to stay, and both stiff. I am slightly in favour of Gus stays back, Jordon dropped and Salem to the wing/HF role. I know Gus is a Right foot kick, but he gets a few away with his left, and Salem is a true left footer, so both stacked on one side could be a nice package. I really like @CYB idea about HF, I actually think our kick/delivery to inside 50 has been a tiny bit messy (only in comparison to the slick machine we are everywhere else) and think Salem could be the Travis Johnstone 2006 of the Wing/ HF line.

I love Weid, but from all accounts Majak deserves a go at Ruck if a Ruckman is required, has some highlights against Nic Nat too.

It is not about the players it is about the coaching system. Our players don't have pixie dust on them (well Gawn/Oliver/Tracc do), they don't have cheat codes, there are other players who are as fit, strong, clever etc. But they don't have the system. Until you break down our system or we lose too many players who can stick to it, other teams are going to come up donuts. Tagging is just a laughable idea because our system will make holes in that approach like a hot knife through butter. We have the best synergy of any team ever. There have been more skilled teams, but never ones with better synergy that is the coaching greatness getting us to the point where we can say our system matches anything ever offered.

I was thinking about this, he would find Melbourne very hard to watch, we expose the shortcomings in his gameplans. We do the defense that he was credited for but have the dare and trust his teams didn't.

This is an excellent tactic of Goodwin about respecting the opposition, gives them nothing to feed off and makes us hard to hate. Honestly I feel like we are the All Blacks of the AFL.

How does a % north of 160 hurt us?, madness I think you need to watch r23 and the finals another few times to reacquaint yourself with this team.

6 Gus 5 Langdon 4 Oliver 3, May 2, Viney 1, Spargo Very Sorry Tmac and Tracc (marked down because he's been burning teammates inside 50) Petty Picket BBB Sparrow ANB Hunt Winners on everyline, have changed my mind 6 plus times, spargs got 6th just because his defensive pressure was huge.

This was not just a win, this was a phenomenal win. This is what happens when you poke the bear, Saints brought huge heat, time and again the Saints had us outnumbered 3:1 and the Demon player concerned (everyone did it) ran from contest to contest pressuring every single Saint in the chain. This was like a boxer throwing repeat 8 punch combinations, takes massive fitness. We CRUSHED them in the contest, respect to the Saints for not dropping their heads and making a game of it, but it was clear over the course of the game that there is daylight between us. Hardest ever votes. Ryder is a great ruckman, but his fitness while OK doesn't match the elite Gawn. Shout out to Spargo in the 1st, thought he was dead when he got nailed by two Saints, he got the handball away and shook it off. Spargo is an elite player. My mum was at the footy today (without her sons), thanks to the Dee's supporters that kept her company, she probably talked their ears off. Will have alot more to say, this game was the best this season of any match for so many reasons.

I dropped mine...

God forbid Demonland becomes as precious as the journalists like Caro. Yes he is a nong and a goose, but he cares about footy and his job is to bounce off Gerard doing the straightman routine. I agree his near death experience has had an effect on him. And 360 is a dozen times more watchable than the footy show ever was, or the nest of vipers that is Footy Classified and whatever that crud is with Tom Browne. Flip past Zero Hanger and Mongrel Punt for more analysis. Watchlist was funny today, King didn't want a part of it saying Melbourne is gettable. By the way super happy Dicko has replaced that snake Tom on First Crack. Commentators I enjoy listening too - Montagna, Dunstall, Pearce, Lyon, Dicko, Buckley
