Didn’t mind it personally, thought the opening was great and makes us feel connected as supporters while they are flying all over the country. It’s pretty much how most of us felt after the Port debacle. Season back on track is by no means job done, that was just the first step.

Yeah insane, listening to the game through Blue Jackets radio. Lol, over 130 shots on goal so far not including the wide of net shots. Was hoping to catch Hawks game before work, looks like I’ll be recording and watching very late tonight.

I get tired just watching him play. Amazing endurance, don’t think I’ve ever seen him with hands on knees.

Hawks might have a say in that Cards ?. Looking forward to our series starting a little later. We have some top liners with a wealth of playoff experience, is that enough to see us through? Not sure. I think our key is Crawford, needs to have a huge series. Our problem wasn’t scoring during the regular season, allowing a lot of shots on goal against was. We got the mix right against the Oilers but new ball game now.

Pleasing to see Hibbo in some great form the last few weeks. Seems to have slowed his game down a bit and is making smart decisions with ball in hand. Thought he was really solid last night with some important rebounds.

Only a few....

Hibbo solid tonight. In good form

Thought Jonesy had a ripper quarter with some nice goal assists.

Did Gus just swing the 3 iron?

That’s how you respond after getting dropped. Well done Hannan, great attack on the ball.

@Dannyz 2/2 the last week. Good work. The ANB inclusion well before Crows game and Melksham to captain as posted on Friday.

I simply cannot get over the fact Malthouse is a spitting image of my father.

Amazing Max hasn’t decked an opponent yet. Just shows his professionalism putting up with utter garbage like that. It’s been happening for the last few years. Players instructed to go at him. Remember Steele giving Max one in the kidneys in 2018 on his way to contesting a boundary throw in just to mention one example.

It’s farcical. How many other sports change or amend rules during the season? The AFL got its wish of Burgoyne being the last player to avoid suspension for a dangerous tackle. Hocking made an urgent amendment to the rule back in June and he stated they are pulling it back to the action not the outcome. We are not measuring it on whether a player gets straight up or is concussed he said. What a load of manure! How do we expect players to adjust when rules are made up on the fly? The game is so complicated already. Danger went into bat for Burgoyne back then, saying it was hard for Burgoyne to know where the ball was because players are taught to play on instinct. ANB’s tackle looked bad, hope the Crows kid is doing ok, but in my mind it wasn’t intentional at all. Sheesh...ANB post game even stated he thought he was getting a free for holding the ball it all happened so fast. Not holding my breath on players being suspended for the action from now on.

It’s been an interesting discussion post game on Fox ht. Ward himself said he played it well because he knew contact was coming. At first glance it looked like over exaggerating post contact. Interesting to see if they do fine him, because if they do are they admitting an umpire error possibly cost a team the game? It can’t be a free and staging at the same time. I don’t necessarily blame the ump in this instant, it all happens quick out there.

Best spin I’ve seen since Warney’s leg breaks by Ward but hey, it’s the Dons.

Apologies if I’ve missed it, is the team announced tonight or tomorrow?

Game on. What happened to Treloar?

Agree Pates, seems harsh on ANB, Burgoyne has avoided suspension twice this year if I’m not mistaken. Viney did get a shoulder to the chin, can’t remember in which quarter though. Could that be the incident?

ANB straight to tribunal , Bennell, Sparrow and Lockhart a little lighter in the pocket with fines offered.

I’m going a 50-50 chance, he’ll either get it or he won’t.

Definitely one person we can’t afford to rest for Sunday’s game. Has become a soothing voice over the last few years.

Going to enjoy the little things from the win. How refreshing to see us kick a goal from a forward stoppage. Max to Viney in the last quarter for a goal was sublime all round, something that happens all too often against us. Possibly May’s best game for the club. He was angry after last week’s game and carried it on. At times it looked like he really wanted to put opponents on their backsides. Great to see. Oliver might get us 3 first rounders after last night. Encouraging signs by Gus in the second half, just not the disposals he amassed, but hitting in really hard at times. Viney probably sitting in the top 3 for B&F at the moment. Pleasing to see JackoWeed on the end of a few.
