Very Jaded

Someone should tell Hawthorn half time is finished

Those complaining about Kosi going for marks, need to understand that Kosi is an instinctive player. If you try to rob him of the freedom to be the unique player he is, you will ruin him. He is so special and does things very few are capable of. It’s what makes him so good. He should be given license to go for goals and marks he believes are realistic, so long as he’s not burning teammates in the process. He does more than enough at ground level to fly for a few marks here and there.

Interesting comments from Goodwin in today’s presser “He’s loving his time at Melbourne and that’s where he’ll be”

Haha Geelong

I love it. I hate Hawthorn and I hate Mitchell I also hate Geelong tho, so….

I never said we are avoiding one wing, but it’s natural to assume that we are utilizing Ed more while Windsor works on his tank. Langdon spent just 10 minutes on the bench on Saturday, whereas Windsor spent 30 minutes on the bench. So of course we are playing thru Ed more than previously when we had Hunter and Gus to complement him, both who had excellent endurance and also rarely came off for a rest.

I doubt Ben Brown will do much training this season, let alone between short breaks. Does Trac have any visible bandages or strapping?

A real shame as he’s had a great start to the season.

Any updates on Clarry, Chin and May would be great

This is what happens when your family tree is actually a wreath.

The “off one foot” specialist

I would say that in order to get the tick of approval to wear the hand guard, he would need scans to show the AFL he needs it. And of course they would need to check that playing with the injury is not going to cause further or permanent damage, and it’s just about pain management. We absolutely need him against Brisbane, so I would make that game a priority and give him a rest against Adelaide if it’s a case of one or the other.

Clarry is a generational talent. If Windsor achieves half as much as Clarry has at the same age, he will have a sensational career. Like with Gawn and Trac, we take Clarry’s talents for granted. There is no better hands in footy right now than Oliver.

Doesn’t help that Essendon had sucked for like 20 years

Bloody great result for us and for Yze

Played his grand final in round 0

Don’t worry about Kelly who is a WA boy. Go hard for Reid 😂

Pre 2021, we didn’t underachieve, we just sucked or were in a rebuild. We never finished inside the top 4, and we did extremely well in 2018 to make a prelim from 6th (?) and lose to the eventual premiers at home. You can definitely argue that we’ve underperformed since 2021, finishing top 4 and not winning a final. Now imagine that but for like 10 years 😂

Meantime you can punch a player in the guts for the same penalty, or better yet, end someone’s career with a thug act and get a premiership medal as a reward 🙄 The free was there, but [censored] the consistency of the MRO is a disgrace.

And remind Petty that his preferred destination stinks

If that was the requirement for a free, Gawn would get 100 of them a game. He gets deliberately smashed into at every contest.

That was a ridiculous free. Nothing in it. Max lucked out then.

The amount of times the dog ran away during that last quarter because we kept losing our mind… he is still mad at me today 😂

Langdon was heavily and rightly tagged post 2021, so we had to switch and find different avenues of moving the ball. It’s good to see him more involved in the game this year, because as you say he’s super damaging, a good user, quick, and of course has elite endurance. He’s far better than Hunter, and totally different to Gus. Windsor is going to be a similar weapon in terms of pace and endurance, but that Windsor has shown that he can go hunt the ball and win contests in close, makes him even more unique. A wingman who can win the contested ball is a rarity. If he can play inside and outside then he is basically going to be impossible to stop.
