The suckiest bunch of sucks that ever sucked

You’re completely missing my point. If he doesn’t play out of his skin we have a situation like today where he’s undersized against a big defender. It’s not a serious forward structure if it’s built around a player playing freakishly well every week. Melksham should be the icing on the cake, not in the top 1-2 forwards

Riv is a real worry. He has plateaued

We’re playing Melksham as an undersized forward in the expectation that he’ll do something freakish at each contest. The odds of that happening a slim - this approach just highlights the futility of our current forward set up

Our ability to make good ordinary players look like super stars is unmatched

Why does nothing bad ever happen to Hawthorn? They are charmed

Agree 💯 The constant meddling with the interpretation of the rules is killing any chance of consistency.

Very much agree the umpires are intent on umpiring to the letter of the law rather than for the feel of the game. That deliberate that was called early in Q1 is the perfect example. Also happened to be right in front of my seats ☺️

I hope the hand is the only issue but I just have a bad feeling. That said I’m purely speculating, zero inside info.

If the concussion symptoms continue the Viney decision might be made for us

Who knew Langdon had it in him to be so annoying 😂 He’s usually so chill & was really giving it to stumpy legs both on and off the ball

Beef Wellington? 😂😂😂

We simply don’t have enough AFL standard umpires. And increasing field umpires to four has only made that worse. Making them professional and paying them a decent wage would help with retention. How many good umpires have given it away because it’s too much to work full time and work a second part time job as an umpire. on top of that the AFL keep messing with not only the rules, but messing with how they are interpreted. The umpires are on a hiding to nothing and there are times I think the AFL don’t mind that as it takes some of the direct focus off the AFL. To a degree the public view the umpires as a seperate entity to the AFL and that perception suits the AFL

He’s been a very good ruckman for a long time but tonight could be the night when Goldie says ‘that’s it, I’m too old for this 💩’

Is Tholstrup selected on vibes? Cause there’s no other reason for him to be in the side

When does the media start seriously questioning Clarkson’s coaching. North have some good players, and when they were on they smashed us. Surely they should be better than this

So Bunbury is considered an AFL standard ground but the AFL also want to hold the Tasmanian govt to ransom to build a $945m million stadium? Not knocking Bunbury, it looks great, but what the AFL is demanding from the Tasmanian taxpayer is outrageous

What an obnoxious little [censored]

And yet the kicking, whether it’s for goal or field remains 💩 Lindsay missed three very kickable shots today so maybe he’s not the one to make the point with. And Leb’s field kicking has been off all year

Absolutely, he a great player. Why are we so stupid as to allow him that much space & time to execute. It’s intensely frustrating

My issue is that they clearly do know and have done f-all about it. Our horrible goal kicking coast is the 2023 finals series and have we done any serious work to resolve that? It doesn’t look like it

Milera is a very good player but the amount of space we have him was outrageous. The seven commentary team kept frothing about his foot skills and yes they’re very good. But being under ZERO pressure certainly makes it easier to hit targets

Windsor - not a defender. If they keep persisting with this, they are going to Melbourne him

Melbourne are the most frustrating footy team ever. That is all

Not a huge fan of Ross Lyon but I do enjoy his new don’t give a toss era. Referring to GC as the AFL nepo baby is all truth. Of course smug Hardwick didn’t think it was funny
