Good outcome. Glad we're not getting rid of all of the experience in the locker room all at once.

I'd go hard at Tom Lynch. As others have said, Petty and JVR are the future, but need some more depth in this area so 2023 doesn't repeat

🐐 #31 RIP

We could/should have won for the last 2 weeks. Hindsight says injuries to Brayshaw, Petty and Melksham cost us. You can pretend alot is wrong but the reality is fine margins decide finals and we were % off with personnel and % off with polish

Gawn - Battled all game Viney - one fatal kick Petracca - decent game only Oliver - almost kicked sealer May - dominated his opponent Salem - tough and effective Rivers - tried his best Langdon - only did running McVee - calm under pressure Pickett - one of best Lever - very good game Spargo - very good game Chandler - little impact again Fritsch - uncharacteristic misses costly McDonand- was barely sighted Neal-Bullen - ran all day Tomlinson - justified his selection Bowey - costly fumble late Hunter - far from worst Smith - good first half Jordan - big shoes unfilled Sparrow - in the bests

Lots of hyperbole in this thread

I have this bizarre numb feeling. Last week stung more. Could see the result coming after continual missed shots. We'll go again next. Hindisght says we were pushing ahit uphill once Melk and Petty went down

Don't have a problem with Selection. Bring on the cheats!

Afl is a corrupt piece of [censored], but realistically I'm way to invested in the MFC and this years flag hopes to carry the rage too much further into the week.

I hope we harness the emotion of this week for a productive outcome. Could go either way I think

If AFL doesn't appeal this I'm [censored] done

Just watched the incident again and feel like punching a hole in the TV. Maynard carrying on first pumping his mates after that makes me sick. Can't wait to see him rubbed out and miss out on the rest of the season.

After seeing the post all I can say is LOL 'Giant'

I'd be rolling the brown dice this week. He's a natural forward and we don't have many of them

Blues just won their premiership. We're going to butt [censored] them next week

'Footy act'

We earned the 2nd chance and will take on a decent opponent next week. Keen to understand whether the pannel saw our poor i50 conversion to be attributed to poor connection or just great defence. Clearly I'm being a little facetious- these two things are linked but I feel like our fans aren't willing to give the Collingwood defence credit where it's due. We were 2 kicks away from a home prelim - Moore and Quaynor stood taller than our forwards and made the difference. Do you see the blues or swans being able to defend as well as the pies did? I don't see it. Prelim at the Gabba awaits

'when the ball was gone and the spoil was finished he tucked up for a bump and hit him in the face' 👋

No way. Absolutely no reason to jump directly at the player in that instance. Hope he gets rubbed out and watches us beat them in the GF

Bring it on. We'll be ready. Petracca to play more forward and JJ to come in. If Roo gets week I'm backing Grundy unless BBB is 100%

Bitter pill to swallow. Shoulda woulda coulda. Still think we can make a prelim, and then who knows what happens. Certainly feel like we can/could beat them if we were to play them again

If we loose my phone will errupt with tennis racquet emojis 🎾

Congrats on a great home and away season for the pod. I see the weather is looking slightly dicey. What's the pannels take on how this could influence selection. I fear that teams can over react to the forecast at the selection table and i hope we don't do that. For example I'd be bringing in Tmac for Melk rain, hail or shine and I'd stick with 3 tall backs.

Seems to me that the AA judges have been told to look at the season in isolation and in doing so have over compensated by ommiting players with great records who had slightly down years by their lofty standards. Gawn and May are locks if you were picking a team
