I think it’s more about teams changing to nullify our defensive dominance from 2021.

Salem is very strong in 1 on 1 marking contests for his size.

Honestly who cares

3 games in 12 days, tough place to win, Suns played well. Good test and solid win with plenty of room for improvement. Not a bad place to be in.

I don’t understand how they can own the name of an actual animal

By this logic no state government should ever invest in anything until they have “solved” transport, education, housing etc? We wouldn’t be seeing much from any state government right now if that was the case. I personally can’t wait to get over to Adelaide for a weekend of footy next year. I’ll be one of many spending money in the state, who would not have spent a cent there otherwise.

I think you may have missed the point being made here.

Yeah I think they’re still getting the balance figured out. Hopefully that defensive performance was an anomaly though…

I agree. I don’t mind Melksham as sub but I just don’t think he has four quarters in him anymore. I’d prefer BBB over McDonald, but BBB isn’t going to play every game, so it might come down to playing McDonald when BBB needs a rest. I’m not sure what other option we have up forward, unless we are to persist with Petty up there.

Gawn is one of the best players and captains in the league.

Get OUT of here with your reasonable reaction.

I feel sorry for you

My take is that he had a bad quarter and then went to work and had another high quality and influential 3 quarters. If the rest of the team were as consistent as him, and as proud of their performance, we’d not have lost today.

I think this is a rubbish take. Oliver tried and was well beaten for one quarter. Like the champion he is, he didn’t stop trying until the last second. Sometimes when this happens, you need others to lift around him. How many bad quarters has Oliver had in 151 games?

Am I right here that you’re saying May offers nothing beyond being a good kick? Just checking I am understanding this correctly, as it seems like a very interesting opinion to have.

Yeah what a dud for trying to take a mark when we had no one taking marks up forward and he was outnumbered and outsized. Today was not fun. We were out done by a hungrier opposition.

We were 5% off and Essendon were on and everything went their way. Usually our backline would save us but lever and Hibbo out hurt and they were totally disorganised. Plus Petty took half a game to get his touch back. I wouldn’t want to be the Tigers next week. So long as Lever is back.

God a lot of you have a victim complex

Yeah has to be Petty back

Umpiring was terrible both ways.

Salem should take Bowey’s spot IMO.

McVee and Salem should be the two smalls down back once Salem is fit.

Wow you genius

Is this really what you think? That Petracca is slow and Clarry can’t hit a target by hand? No idea how we won a premiership with such a slow unskillful group.

I have a question… why is “SIM” always spelled in capital letters on this site?
