Straight Sets Simon

No surprise to see the Lions taking it up to the Eagles after what we saw in the JLT.

Joel Smith out hurt us, he’s a dynamic forward while Weideman and McDonald are very one-dimensional. Preuss needs to be playing, Gawn can’t compete against two ruckmen every week. I was skeptical about getting May but Frost and O. McDonald proved me wrong today. If Hore is the answer we are asking the wrong question. Spargo has peaked and has no weapons. Petracca can’t play midfield and needs to strip some muscle to improve his agility. Once ANB missed that easy set shot Port Adelaide got on top. Westhoff is a star yet we didn’t seem to plan for him. Wagner tried but not recruiting a good crumbing forward in the off season will hurt us a lot.

Any or all of Hore, Frost, O. McDonald and Spargo to come out. Sparrow and Wagner did enough. No idea who comes in at this point besides May.

Horedinary.

Marty Horeable.

Weideman is cooked.

Is anyone on Westhoff?

This.

I’ve seen enough of Hore.

Spargo playing on like that can get in the bin. I don’t care that Melksham kicked the goal that was idiotic.

Frost just ran away from Westhoff then.

We’ve had a great run with the umpires.

No surprise, Lycett did it in the preliminary final with great succcess.

Since ANB missed that second shot in goal we’ve been putrid.

Fritsch is elite.

Frost loves holding on to players.

It’s too intelligent for Demonland, I know.

I’m normally critical of most things the AFL do but I fully support their efforts to open up the game more and get less crowding around the ball.

Wagner's inclusion highlights our need for forward line pressure and crumbing forwards. He's got a great opportunity to cement a place in the team.

Harmes to Powell-Pepper.

I've probably left this a bit late this year. This is the final ladder at the end of the home and away season. Point scoring system: Three points if you correctly guess a top eight team's position Two points if you correctly guess a team finishing in the top eight but you don't get their correct position One point if you correctly guess a team outside the top eight's position My guess: Collingwood West Coast Richmond Adelaide Melbourne GWS Hawthorn Geelong Sydney Essendon Brisbane Western Bulldogs North Melbourne Port Adelaide Carlton St Kilda Fremantle Gold Coast

Fritsch is a worthy addition.

Joel Smith is a big blow.

No, he runs under the ball.
