spirit of norm smith

Absolutely checking each hour for news. Our premiership campaign is built on many many players but Max is a very key part of the team. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞it’s only short term.

I love Harmesy BUT Harmes cracked through the ice and is on the bottom. He was terrible all night. FUMBLES. SLOW DISPOSAL. POOR TACKLING. Cannot stay in. Cannot ! Must be replaced by Jordon. Must.

Outs 🚑Gawn ( I hope and pray it’s not ACL) 🤡 Harmes must be dropped to Casey ☹️ Melksham to Casey (new sub needed) ? Tmcd was ineffective and pushed aside too easily by Payne ? Petty could benefit from time at Casey (Tomlinson was better again tonight) ins ⭐️ May must be back to battle Franklin ? JVR /Schache- depends on how perform at Casey (replace Tmcd) ? Salem - fitness test 🙏🏽 👍🏻 Jordon to come back in (why was he out?) sub Joel Smith if he has a good game

6 Lever - steady and reliable all night 5 Hunter - very damaging with the footy, smart and creative 4 Ben Brown - played CHF and key forward and kicked good goals 3 Grundy - battled hard against two opponents and reminded off his ruck craft 2 Oliver - battled and battled as a warrior all night but fumbles and turnovers were costly (and some defensive switch offs were costly) 1 Bowey- got less of the footy than others but disposal efficiency were effective and created 3 goals and intercepted well

Gawn injury🤮🤮 ?? 🤞🤞🤞 Stoppages and clearances 🤮🤮🤮 clearances lost 30-60 🤮🤮🤮 centre clearances lost 10-20🤮🤮🤮 stoppage clearances lost 20-40 🤮🤮🤮 ☹️☹️ indirect slow footy 🤬🤬🤬umps 🤮Harmes - fumbles fumbles fumbles and high tackles 🤮Melksham- stumbled and fumbled 🤮petty - lost confidence and fumbled 👍🏻👍🏻Grundy 👍🏻👍🏻Hunter 👍🏻👍🏻Bbb 👍🏻👍🏻Lever 👍🏻Rivers 👍🏻Bowey ☹️☹️Gus and Clarry had the footy a lot but disposals were generally poor and turnovers very costly 🤩🤩last 8 minutes- 5 goals !!!

May? Salem? I thought they’d be declared fit

Love the fast ball. Once Carlton switched tempo last night, they got on top of shaky Cats defence. Go quick and daring is a big plus imv.

29c here. Beautiful day. Beautiful conditions for Footy tonight

Brisbane 24c is predicted for 7pm tomorrow night. Perfect conditions for footy.

Yes it’s a fantasy in many ways

Pickett out suspended. Presume May , Salem , Viney and Fritsch back. Presume Mcvee stays as travel emergency. Presume Mitch White is still out. Presume Lawrie and Tomlinson are put back to Casey. FB: J. Smith. Tomlinson Munro* HB: D. Smith D. Turner. Hibberd C; Howes Jordon Woewodin HFF Burgoyne* JVR AMW FF: Sestan. Schache Jefferson rucks. Bell* Laurie Dunstan int. Grey* Verrell Adams Steele* emerg. KFH K.Turner Buntine* Goonan*

Casey Demons this week 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆

Yes same !!

Just arrived in Brisbane. 80% humidity hit me as soon as we walked down the stairs off the Virgin flight (ps. Virgin - wonderful!!? What a joke !!!! - delayed 40 minutes arrival ). Dees will need good rotations through the midfield Having a sub will help !

Agree. I think Brownlow should go 3- Gawn 2- Petracca 1- Oliver not sure Kozzzy will get a vote. Lever should be votes but umps recognizing defenders for votes is a low probability!!

Leigh Matthews was wary when asked whether players owe their opponents a duty of care. “On the footy field, your duty of care is to play to the rules,” Matthews said. This must be a joke !!! Leigh Matthews what a joke. His king hit on Peter Giles was one of worst hits of all time. And the Neville Bruns incident must be wiped from the history books. Matthews was a great footballer but a thug as well.

Ditto

From the Age Match review officer Michael Christian classified Pickett’s rough conduct charge as careless conduct, high impact and high contact. Christian’s high-impact call was critical to the finding, given Smith quickly bounced to his feet, avoided an injury and played the match out. Pickett could have escaped with even a fine in the scenario the impact was judged to be low, and typically cases where a bump does not cause injury are graded no worse than medium impact. but it wasn’t high contact as Smith was hit in the upper torso. No HIA was called upon. but it wasn’t high impact as Smith got straight up and played the rest of the game. SIMPLY MUST CONTEST OR LET THIS INJUSTICE CONTINUE

Ditto. Joeboy - back in town !!

6-Max Gawn 5-Kozzzzy Pickett 4-Christian Petracca 3-Jake Lever 2- Ben Brown 1-Kade Chandler … apologies to Clarry, Spargo and Gus
