Little Richard

No midfield, no Dees.

Viney and Oliver have been absolutely abysmal. Our midfield is literally Trent Rivers right now, insane.

We are Mike Tyson, they are Jake Paul.

You could be on the money!

I agree re his tenacity but he's getting on in age these days, him and the docs have to make sure he's looking after his body to make sure he's primed for next year. As I said though it's purely speculation on my part about him actually needing work done cc @monoccular

2021 has the makings of an exceptional draft year for us, but our trading has been deplorable.

We are going to get hammered. Doggies are looking ominous at the moment.

May might be one that finishes his season early to go under the knife. Send Petty back, bring in Jeffo and see how he goes. Purely speculation at this stage though.

I'm still so surprised that Goody hasn't swapped TMac and Petty for any meaningful length of time this year. Surely it was worth a crack for at least a couple of games. We all know that Macca has a great track history up forward and Petty is an excellent key back. Too late now anyway.

Too much sooking about the umpires in this thread. Yes, they were poor, but when have they actually been good this year? This loss is firmly our own doing. We didn't take our chances when we were dominant early, and we switched off at the start of the fourth quarter.

For Sparrow to come straight back in would be pointless, there are obviously a few things he needs to keep working at. Considering the leniency he received for so long, however, I wouldn't be surprised if he did.

Gus Brayshaw is a loss of titanic proportions when we talk about mental fortitude.

Long contract but I like it. Building the nucleus of our next premiership side with these guys.

Brown in should be a lock, he's earned a game and at the moment looks like he'll offer more than Kolt and a couple of others.

Surely Sparrow has earned himself a stint at Casey but there are probably others that need to go before him. I think Bowey did enough to keep his spot, he was pretty decent in patches. However, Howes and Hore are both viable options to replace him or Salem if need be. Salem looked off it again, maybe another niggle. Kolt probably needs a rest. Billings was okay. As much as I would love to see Jeffo get a few games this year we're still in the hunt (though it doesn't feel like it), so we need to give ourselves the best shot possible at winning this week. OUT: Kolt, Salem/Sparrow IN: Brown, Howes/Hore

The answer remains the same - we don't trade Oliver.

It can get much worse.

I think Verrall is going to be a player, but it's going to take some time. Fullarton should have been in the team today, absolutely no excuses.

Really hope he can find a way into it in the second half. We need him badly!

I hope we keep him - when he's healthy he's such an asset across half-forward and seriously underrated in my opinion. Becomes even more important after Melksham retires.

Leave Windsor on the wing!

Great win, really pleased with Clarry's game, recent form considered. He showed some flashes of his old self so I'm hoping he's on the way back up. How good are the kids! Rivers has the makings of a true midfield star, JVR played a great, selfless game, McVee is a jet and Windsor has a very bright future. Also absolutely love Disco's work, he's got a fair leg on him too!

Bringing Petty in shouldn't weaken the forward line as long as he's rucking a good 70-80% of the match. Short stints from Turner, McDonald and JVR will keep our structure sound.

So much love for Cam, hit the packs harder than anyone in the red and blue since Neita.

Going to be a super dynamic third tall for us IMO, whether that's up forward or down back. Great news!
