Shaping up as a huge day for the club with Max Gawn set to play in his 250th game and potentially TMac (coming in for Disco) also set to play his 250th game. This is a must win. We owe Carlton big time.

6. Gawn 5. Steele 4. Langdon It gets really hard from here... 3. Salem 2. Tholstrup 1. Rivers

Two half decent quarters but that felt like more than 48 points. Max is a warrior. Steele and Langdon also worked hard. Langford and Lindsay are a concerning story so far in 2026. Langford can't find the football and Lindsay seems to have lost his composure with ball in hand. Losing Disco early (who was looking ok) hurt us big time and exposed Petty big time.

Need Culley to find more of the football. Everytime he has it, good things seem to happen.

Latrelle isn't ready for AFL yet.

We've kicked four goals to zip so far in this quarter. Credit to the Kingy and the lads for digging in. We are still in this in a big way.

Actually looking okay this quarter so far. Steele winning a fair bit of ball at the moment. Dockers might be nervous after last week.

Sounds like a mixed day for X.Taylor in his first proper VFL match. Did he not pick the pace of the game or was his disposal a bit off?

Big tick for game awareness. Very simple, but great footy IQ from Culley there.

Agreed. Looked much more comfortable in the ruck compared to last year. Had some solid moments down back as well. Big year for him with May now retired.

I wasn't a fan at first, but Kolt was a decent choice to curb NWM. Nasiah only had 18 touches, most of which came from his disposal chains from half back. A tagging role could be good for his development. No better way to learn your craft than to play on the best.

6. Van Rooyen 5. Gawn 4. Windsor 3. Steele 2. Checkers 1. Sharp

Fritsch had some moments he'd like to have back (that play on and wild snap in the last was terrible), but still had 8 score involvements. Didn't mind the role he played today.

Mammoth last quarters by Maxy, Steele and Sharp of all players! What a way to start the King era!

Checkers helping out in defence! You love to see it!

Love a classic Max Gawn god mode final quarter

Saints fans are leaving folks. Nasiah or not I think we've got this one...

Sharp has been so important in this last quarter.

All bow before our new Casbah loving Roo overlord.

Sharp has seriously lifted

Great kick by Steele. Nice finish Maxy!

Win or lose, this is the most entertaining footy I've seen us play for 2-3 seasons. Saying that, (censored) I hope we win.

(censored) me, this is fun.

Culley is going to cause a lot of problems for teams this year. Can seriously play.

Saw the best and worst of Tholstrup in that half. 10 touches at 80% but seems to miss the mark at key moments.
