Jaded No More

Bontempelli is somewhere crying “what more do I have to do” 😂

Also memo to every AFL commentator: the Pies have deficiencies like everyone else. They are not, as we’ve been led to believe, holding the cup with one hand.

They are DA BEST SIDE EVER 🙄

One can only hope. Their ball use so far screams fatigue.

I really can’t stress how important it is that we don’t come out asleep tomorrow. Because even the worst teams can beat you when you’re not on. Also LOL Essendon

I mean of course, but I don’t think he will. I sure as hell rather the Bont over Daicos or Butters.

I absolutely adore the Bont. He is not just an amazing footballer but a nice humble guy. Met him a few times and he just oozes warmth. Hope he wins the Brownlow this year. An absolute star!

Can you see a scenario where McVee and Hibbo both play?

They go when the pressure is not on. When the pressure is turned up they go to water. See also 2021 Grand Final.

Nearly choked on my tea when he said that. God BT is a disaster

Well this game is dead to me

I would love to see this from us on Sunday. Brutal.

Dogs love this stuff. Open game with no pressure. It’s their bread and butter.

Christ almighty this is the worst defensive effort I’ve seen all year from anyone. It’s West Coast level putrid.

Why do teams always play well against us and are absolute slop against everyone else? 🫠

Bont is fire. I love him!

Yep and we are already going in with McVee, Bowey and Rivers. That’s a bit of inexperience right there. For mine it’s risky to play Smith as a full time defender but this is definitely the right week to do it.

A very risky sub

Dogs will cream them

Wait until we turn pick 4 into Reid and Jefferson kicks 4 on debut

If we do lose to North, we will witness the greatest rise of MFCSS since 186.

Imagine our percentage if we beat them by 120 back then 😂

He actually needs it for fitness. My guess is he will be the chosen sub for the remainder of the season, and we will persevere with Tomlinson because we need three talls down back. But he’s been sub too long and with yet another Casey bye, this is a good week to give him a full game for some fitness and touch. I really like what Smith has brought in the sub role, but the reality is that he’s an unreliable full time defender. Tomlinson is a slow meat and potato defender, but we know what he gives us. Smith is all over the place and I think May and Lever need the predictability of Tomlinson in finals. Smith being sub also allows us to throw Petty back in case of emergency and put Smith forward, should we see a forward get off the leash in a final on Tomlinson. If however we do choose to play Smith as a permanent third tall defender, I would think we need to bring back Hibbo for that last line of defense goal side reliability that we will lack with Smith.

Tomlinson, Woey out Sparrow, Smith in Glad Petty retains his spot on the bench 😂

They have no concern about this game. They’re talking whiskey for gods sake. We are a joke! 😂
