He is not going anywhere. Do any of you think he is just making the media look like fools when he commits?

We don't have Grundy's. Got away with that one as it is between the Pies and Brodie.

Petty- No pre-season Oliver - No pre-season Melbourne - Didn't pick them

I know and I like it. Let's be honest with ourselves that we would not be challenging the top end due to a lot of factors so why not make something of the backend. Can't keep going to the BBB, Schache, Billings well, otherwise we'll lose another Bedford or Jordan.

I feel for the guy as I have no doubt he is trying but confidence in himself and potentially his body is holding him back. He virtually had no preseason and we expected him to dominate from Round 1 which was never going to happen. I honestly believe the club, like Oliver, should not have played him if there were better options available as BBB and Shache aren't it.

I am still amazed that with our midfield capability and connection issues with the forwards that we don't have a midfield coach. Yes, you read that correctly.

You cannot be serious Brownie. If you are, admin needs to ban this person for stupidity.

All I want to know is that after three preseasons we still have no connection between our minds and forwards. How is that possible with all the coaching, training sessions, analytics, etc?

21 years old. FFS! Name another key forward his age we had access to averaging more than a goal game. Give the kid a break.

Not excusing the bad skills in the first half but the hard sessions leading in may have provided early fatigue until they ran it out of their system.

Based off his season so far he isn't wrong.

Where did you get these stats from?

Officially closed. Too many confirmed and unconfirmed issues that take up too much energy and focus on the goal at hand and I'd even say the hunger full stop is not the same.

It makes so much sense to get a half forward with grunt and connect. We don't have one of those with BOTH attributes. Also, Langdon has been nothing like his pre-rib injury form, which might be the kick in the pants he needs. Anyone can run all day but you need to be damaging as well.

If the Saints pay 50% of the salary then it is a no brainer. A seasoned player who needs a fresh start could be the new Blake Acres (not playing wise but draft steal) and in a winning environment.

Watch for round seven Next year!

Move him on if he wants to go. Get in a pick and use that for someone else who is younger or can kick in the draft.

What was the bake he gave the team after the game? I haven't read anything about it here so any info would be great. Mad Monday cancelled? Interesting...

We could have been sucked in like Port Adelaide in giving another contract before the finals. I am seriously concerned about what the 'learnings' will be if we lose tonight. Does Goody learn anything?

Love how they said it was a Dead rubber after the loss. Tipping it wouldn't have been if they had won.

If anyone has a spare MCC concession ticket, let me know.

MCC visitor tickets not even an option. Pathetic system for a dad to take his daughter to the game.

Our podcast has just dropped out recap of the QF and the five main points of how we lost the game. Take only ten minutes to see if I was on the mark:

I just dropped our preview on our podcast on YouTube and I made sure to look the last five weeks, not the entire year form line. Outside of the Carlton loss (win) we have been awesome over this period where they have only been chugging along. Check it out (only eight minutes total) and if you like it, give a subscribe (they're free)!

Turner - please stop fumbling. I will give him the leighway of a hotly contested game to walk into. Chandler has nothing to worry about. No-one is taking his spot, especially Spargo.
