Jaded No More

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! 😂

Ok ok I’ll just barrack against Port Not FOR Geelong tho. Nobody call the psych ward.

This wet lettuce penalty will deter absolutely no club from breaching the concussion protocol in a final, or any other important game. If we were a club with no integrity or care for its players, which we are very clearly not, as if we don't try to go around the protocol if Gawn has a suspected concussion in a prelim, for the low low cost of $50k!

A Geelong win is good for the Dees, but bad for the soul

Disgraceful outcome. AFL continues to protect its brand at all costs. Forget player welfare.

Trust that tiny nutted [censored] of a human to be a snitch and a cry baby. Don’t see players going to the AFL crying that you eye gouged them you absolute clown. If there is a less respected player in the AFL, I would be shocked. A real piece of trash!

I shall cry happy tears when I see IN: Oliver

Imagine if they drop him. Nah mate, a power FF is not what we need. Thanks anyway.

If Geelong lose two in a row at home, their end is officially here.

We could, if we play Bowey at half forward… I know it won’t happen but a girl can dream of those sexy kicks going inside 50

That helps enormously, because Carlton is a very good contested side, and like us, that is their strength. We might see Grundy return next week. We can exploit them in the ruck and put further pressure on them if we play two strong rucks against Pitonett.

Petty on the bench. Lol.

It's a Samsung so I just downloaded the app. I didn't think any TVs would come with Kayo pre-installed given it's an Australian app? I have re-installed the app once which helped a little, but it still buffers mid game sometimes, especially I think, when it's a game that a lot of people must be watching. Never happens when I try to watch a West Coast or North game 🙃

I only ever use Kayo via the app on the TV and we have really good, reliable fast internet that was just recently upgraded, and it still constantly buffers. Drives me absolutely mad.

Absolute debacle!

Dannyz IS the opinion AND the source 😁

Brisbane will beat Freo, but the likely margin of that win should, and I emphasis the word SHOULD, be smaller than our winning margin over the Roos. By the time our game starts, we will know if Port have lost to Geelong and so the likelihood of 2nd spot will no doubt be firmly in our minds. I just hope we really put the foot down, as IMO we can only finish 2nd on percentage, as opposed to points. I think us, Port and Brisbane could well finish on equal number of points, and it would be devastating to miss out on a home final by a couple of percentage points (Port can't catch us on percentage mind you).

It really isn’t. The league is currently facing multiple legal challenges relating to head injuries and negligence. It is by far the biggest issue facing the AFL currently. Hence the crackdown on all head high contact that we’ve seen this season from the MRO. Essendon suffered for years for what they did, and points were dropped in essence, since they made finals but were disqualified. That’s a far worse penalty than losing a couple of match points. Nobody is suggesting the same for Port, but they are REPEAT offenders in this space and deserve a hefty penalty, or else what sort of message is this sending to clubs?
