Jaded No More

Ben Brown seems sad about that

Brisbane really disappointed me. Port wins that game if not for injuries. Poor skills. Slow. Very uninspiring. Sydney were the standout for me. Quality list. Good balance all over the ground. Excellent coaching. Will trouble most teams. Can’t write GWS off. They’ll improve when Greene returns and Hogan is fit. They lacked fire power on the weekend. Carlton were impressive but again we need to see if they can sustain that effort. They have a good list. Defense is very suspect but excellent midfield that will only improve when Walsh returns. And we can’t judge the Dogs. They played a hard opposition 😂

I’m very glad Gold Coast won last night. Not only does it take pressure off them, it also makes it less likely that we take this game lightly. Our record against poorer sides last year was not good.

Sorry yes I meant Hunt on Rankine and May on Lukosius. He’s very dangerous. He can’t kick set shots to save himself but he’s a very good player in space.

I think the defenders we currently have available will actually match up well on GC. Smith will be a good matchup on Chol, Tomlinson will probably take Casboult, Hunt to Lukosius and I would play May on Rankine. Rankine is definitely the one forward they have who can go nuts, and we know May can definitely play mid size. It will also allow May to play as a third man up. I doubt very much we risk Lever unless he is 110% right to go.

But equally look who is on top 🤮

Didn’t even get a free for that poor Rowell. He’s a bull.

We are also a better team which is another major advantage

Well done Suns

Come on Gold Coast. You can do it! You can beat West Coast thirds. I believe in you!

Not sure they planned on King doing his ACL. But yes their back up talls are borderline AFL quality. Outside of Miller and Rowell they aren’t much chop, which is confusing because they’ve had 198 first round draft picks.

It would indeed be a disgrace to lose this game. But we lost to Adelaide and Collingwood last year.

Sure. But we play Gold Coast so…

West Coast skills keeping them in this. They are killing them by foot. Gold Coast wasting a million possessions.

Danger game next week. We don’t like playing bad teams.

When they shut down Gold Coast I’m calling dibs on Touk Miller.

Nothing will make me happier than West Coast finishing bottom 4… unless Geelong do (which won’t happen sadly)

West Coast will run out of petrol. They look incredibly unfit.

He’s elite at the buffet stats, that’s for sure.

Gold Coast. Oh dear.

Kennedy gives away a free. Swears. No 50. Kennedy gets out marked and encroaches on the mark. No 50. Umpiring going beautifully as per usual.

Gold Coast will never ever have a better opportunity to win interstate than tonight.

At least this has been a good round with evenly matched sides going up against each other. Essendon aside, highest winning margin is ours at 26 points so far.

Yeah Freo could easily be 4-0 with their draw.

What a great finish. 0 stars for skills. 10 stars for suspense this game.
