Geez that stings! Can't expect to win many games when we bring the intensity we did in the first quarter. We are a 3/4 team at the minute. I think the Kennedy Harris and bugg careers at the mfc might be just about over. Seriously even jack Trengove with his speed issues would offer far more than either of those two

We aren't good enough to win this

Ugh! I am over this club .

We are playing like it's been raining, ultra sloppy and dumb long bombs forward

Weak! 22 ineffective tackles. Our captain can't hit a target to save his life

bucks is gone. 8th spot is us vs the saints tipped the lions to beat the swans the top 8 is so open, we can't afford to lose today, if we win today and take momentum into the crows game we might be a chance over there

Paddy will be a very good player but he is going to take some time, I fully expect the saints will just let him develop as best they can to take over when roo calls time. Im very happy with petracca but they're probably to different to compare

dees by 25, I think it'll be a good contest but we will control it over four quarters Jayden hunt best on ground

Particularly when you take the age of the side into account, to me it's a sign of the talent on the list and the quality of experience we have

In 2017 we haven't really been outplayed yet in my opinion, we have either won or dominated so much and missed opportunities that we have run out of legs. I think our ladder position isn't a reflection of how good our best is, but a reflection of how young our side is. I think we will beat the hawks easily, because we should smash them in the contest and be to quick on the outside.

Doesn't move very well at all, his speed and sidestep seem almost completely gone can't see him getting anywhere near his potential pre injury

That's a shame, based on his form last week I was hoping he would play...

Crows should have Norf covered pretty easily I reckon 10 goals plus without getting out of first gear for the crows

Outstounding effort by everyone involved in taking this club from the edge of depth to as exciting as any club in the competition on and off the field in such a short period of time.

If you read my post you would see that I expressed my view... he is being given a run at it because Kent isn't playing at his best and they want to see if his form builds, at this stage I don't think he is ticking enough boxes to be a long term option but I may be proved wrong. Since I know you'll say " well the coaches know better" is there any chance you could explain in detail why you think he should remain in the side based on his current output, can a player who granted is putting on pressure retain his spot in the long term if he continues to fail to deliver offensively.

I know there is some bad blood with some supporters but Scully is genuine a grade now, he would walk into our side and be in the top 5 players

Seriously could you please stick to the topic saty, if you have such a low opinion of posters I'm not sure why you feel the need to post on demonland. Its a discussion forum and you're not discussing the topic. I personally think jkh is being given a run at it because the coaches think he has talent that hasn't been displayed on field yet and with Kent not at his best it presents and opportunity. You shouldn't take what you're told/see at face value when at training, these guys are paid to be nice to you and am 100% certain they aren't telling you everything.

Reminds me of us vs the tigers, better for three quarters but run out of legs

They seem to only police the throwing rule when Clayton Oliver actually handballs it

Taranto has so much time with ball in hand

The umpires absolutely love the saints, when a team is getting a better run with the umps than the giants it's pretty serious stuff

Do You think a fully fit and in form dean Kent is rated above jkh? I strongly suspect if Kent were in form jkh would be the one who made way for him.

The biggest question I have around track is does he end up being a better mid or forward? I personally like him being 70% forward with midfield bursts

Giants by 70 plus I reckon they will destroy them in the contest
