Pies are definitely beatable for sure after watching last night. Gaps in performance. Lions must now be clear favourites and have all the weapons, as we had till injuries got us.

Agree, but thuggery, as in the old days, is not the issue anyway. Its all about intent. and Impact. Careless at best, severe. 3 weeks. He jumps in the air in a straight line to Angus. What did he think was going to happen next. Football act my a---e.

I saw the only replay they showed on big screen. He's gone imo

This is Maynard's last game for the season

Source?

Kozzies our first bounce specialist now.

Hundreds of walk up seats available level 1 mcc area

But it's true. After losing tonight the Pies beat tomorrow's winner and bingo he's back in two weeks. He showed glimpses of churlishness this year. Like most coaches he's. Friendly and amusing till it all goes south.

For sure looking at the radar now, and importantly in time to make a smart decision about the sub and/or final team

5.30 or 4.30 for mcc

Did Goody say anything about ours, and if not is Tomlinson a chance subject to weather??

Interesting The Age is reporting now Ginnivan is sub. I thought that was an hour before the game. Would this be correct??

Just saw the Pies team. Much kudos to McCrae not playing favourites and picking on form - e.g Lipinski, Markov, and saying to Ginnivan, even if the sub, your'e not quite rehabilitated yet mate. I'd query one0trick pont Howe lining up forward. No hangers will be taken tomorrow . So what does Howe offer.?

Agree. If Cox and Cameron are in the 22, therein lies our bigeest problem, unless it buckets down

and 18 with Flag experinece, and the others have proven themselves under heat e.g Judd McVee. Joel Smith and Chandler.

Additons from the KB line up are McDonald, Oliver and Bowey. Not too shabby ins I reckon. And Petty and Melk. didn;t play that day either. I can live with this being about the best we can offer right now

Noble is an absolute favourite of Buckley. Seems like a dangerous line breaker. Oh well I guess Ginnivan gets preference.

Plus in my mind we finished second. 4th spot due marchbank point . And poor umpiring. We're a bona fide 2nd in quality.

Max has been successfully, and unfairly targetted in the past and its been effective. Hinkley implemented using 2 rucks several years ago. If a pies ruck is sub, then surely Mcrae's plan must be to bring on fresh legs against max say late in 3rd 1/4. I think Max can easily cope fitness wise against 2 second raters, but its the buffetting I fear. In Goody I trust though.

Post of the day. Thanks

No way will the tactical sub be a bona fide ruckman. Completely limits the required tactical options . That's why Joel Smith is so good. 100% versatility

Hard to say. But Gillard said last night that there was huge love inside afl mgt ranks for kiss. He named one and it may have been Dillon but can't remember. Do the afl execs think they no anything at all about pre game entertainment. History suggests not. Except for Barnsey's huge show in 2028

Brayshaw at half back - like now, Trac (Larke medal winner) next to Darcy Moore. I looked at this after reading Braydon Maynard's interview this morning and noted also he played in the metro team and with Langdon and Brayshaw at Sandy Dragons. Fascinating, and how did THAT Caleb Marchbank get selected!? The point is watching how Maynard pushed Cox away from Dees players after KB game after Trac had gone after him over something, these players have long standing relationships. Interesting journeys by all.

And no mention of THAT premiership lost opportunity. Don't tell me he doesn't lie awake at night regretting his loss.

Another example of late middle aged white men re-living their past with a mediocre act that doesn't cut it vocally or in the daytime in an arena with no atmoshpere for this type of act. Will be poorly compared with Robbie Willams efforts last year. Just an annual joke. I'll be downstaris buying a pie.
