That’s a shameful post

I was watching on Kayo and Jason Dunstall was talking up Clarry and Melbourne big time. “Oliver’s hands when he is being tackled are the best I have ever seen” and then Oliver handballed to Langdon 5m away when he had absolutely no right to. He is quite obviously a freak

An alternate theory is that perhaps we think way, way more about Dogga’s contract than Dogga does. He does seem pretty happy go lucky. Perhaps he has only just become aware that his not signing is a thing and is going to now get it sorted?

It’s not getting worse either

Particularly with Cunningham gone! Duffy will make us instantly better. Pretty much a top ten quality pick for nothing. Yay

The only thing worse than a Geelong V Carlton GF would be a Geelong V Essendon one. Either of those teams winning would be tragic. I’d have to leave the country for a bit

Then we will barrack against them. Hoping the Blues win hurts enough as it is

I do love this alternate reality we are living in where, we are the well run club, littered with All Australians going for back-to-back flags and Essendon are a laughing stock. Long May it last

I didn’t see that tonight

Toby Bedford is quite good at playing football

Strangely the run home looks a bit easier now

And it would have been handy if we had of played May but, no, we had to shoot ourselves in the foot for the sake of our ‘culture’.

We didn’t have to suspend him. We have done this to ourselves.

Such a dumb decision to suspend him.

Our goal accuracy is a reflection on our game plan of kicking into the pockets. It makes it more difficult for the opposition to get the ball out but gives us more shots from tighter angles.

Considering the whinging about the Melb/Syd crowd size it will be interesting to see how many Rich/Port draw tonight

How? There was no other way punish him? None?

I’m sure the Pies are going to be stoked that our culture precludes Steven from playing on QB. So dumb.

Seems like a lovely bloke

Freos Sam Switkowski has been sent to the tribunal for a chicken wing tackle. I have never heard of him till yesterday. So is Sam Switkowski any good and how happy are we if he misses next week?

I think he means 148 points

Surprised no one has mentioned Spargo. Thought he had one of his best games last night and has taken his game to a new level this year.

Don’t think Lloyd was saying that at all. He just wanted them to be more like us

He also has the second most winningest record of current day AFL players (over 50 games) at 72.79%.

Titus’s take on the game sums it up perfectly West Coast (38) v Melbourne (112) Expansion team West Coast continue to struggle this season but there were some promising signs as they only suffered their biggest loss to Melbourne in their history. The Demons scored 41 points in the first quarter, meaning they didn’t have to score again, and they still would have won the game. That’s almost what they did, as the Eagles lifted their intensity and managed to drag the Demons down to their level for long periods of the match. Melbourne though are like a boxer who tried to win on points, not knockouts. They do enough to make sure they don’t lose. They can score, but they prefer to let their opponent wear themselves out. The result of this approach is 16 wins on the trot, a feat I still struggle to comprehend. I’ve gone decades where it felt like we only won sixteen games. The thing about sport is you must enjoy the good times because we all know, the bad times are not exactly rare.
