The heart beats true

I found Maysie’s interview post game such an interesting example of modern day coaching. He said that at half time Goodwin had a laugh with them about how bad the kicking had been, and told them to improve their fundamentals. 15 years go that was screaming, and fire and brimstone.

He was just Clayton. He’s a bit of a left of centre thinker, and he’s honest, almost to a fault. He’s been handling himself extremely well, and I think he should be really proud of himself. Just because people are different doesn’t mean we should question everything they say and do. He’s not a robot, and that’s why he’s so valuable.

I love Jesse. I have a lot of admiration for his journey, and wish him nothing but success after all he’s had to overcome at such a young age. But a player should get a week for that.

2 from 8. On Saturday night I was literally 0-6.

I think my 11 year old niece has designed Cam Zurhaar’s tattoos.

It takes 2 parties to make a relationship work.

Brereton is the most patronising commentator. He’s just so condescending.

This gets overlooked a lot. Carlton give up good scores to everyone. They statistically smack teams at the contest, yet still leak big scores. Their next month will tell us a lot about them.

If you think that win looks bad now, wait until 2030 when McKercher is back playing in Tassie, and Reid is winning Brownlow’s.

The GWS V Brisbane game on Anzac Day could just about be the end of Brisbane this year. Long way back from 2-5.

If by funny you mean hugely disappointing, then yes. Today was ‘hilarious’.

I’m 0-6 in my tipping. Unbelievable.

Don’t do it @WalkingCivilWar I’ve heard weird things about how they role over there.

The good news is that one of these teams will lose. what a weekend. 💩

You sound live every partner, parent and boss I’ve ever had.

The AFL has the downfield rule wrong. There’s an incentive to push a player in the back as they are kicking. It’s gives your defence time to set up. It makes no sense.

This is weak from Port. Really bad.

Port don’t have talent behind the ball. They’ve got size, but no natural footballers. Ratugolea, Aliir, Zerk-Thatcher - they all look like big blokes, and they can all do athletic things, but the basics allude them too often. Collingwood’s theory here is just bang it in and one of them will panic, and it’s working.

Collingwood’s back half look really average.

Ugh. Brad Scott makes his brother seem likeable.

Crows still can’t win the wins they should though. Learnt nothing from last year.

That was a few kick at the end. Crows robbed.

Why is everyone assuming Clayton doesn’t play? Has that actually been spoken about anywhere?

This is classic Dogs under Bevo. Needs a ‘backs against the wall, us against the world’ mentality to get them up. It’s consistency that’s there issue.

I saw that. Disco’s got a lot more exposure to what we want from him, and has had a taste of AFL pressure. I think he’s going to be useful, and I believe the club is very pleased with his progress.
