I saw a post that if the Mariners win they will get to host the GF in Gosford which would be awesome for the region. A huge contrast compared to the ‘festival of football’ or whatever Townsend paraded only a year or so ago where games had to be held in Sydney no matter what.

I'm liking him, starting to get more of it. He's not playing HBF where you can get cheap uncontested disposals you actually have to earn your disposals as a HFF. Hoping he can stay injury free and we get more games into him for the remainder of the year.

Circling back to Taranto & Hopper. We had an inconsistent H&A season in 2022 (13W 8L & 1D) but basically finished comfortably in 7th with 6 pts separating above & below us. From memory when we had some injuries in the middle of the year we lost some crucial games narrowly and it bit us in the...

I've seen enough from our side earlier in the year to know Yze can coach. A narrow loss to Carlton when we basically played with 2 on the bench after HT inc losing x2 key defenders during the game against the league best KPF's. Down by a goal at 3/4 time against Port and faded. Gutsy win over...

So Banks, Graham and MRJ all will have at least 3 week stints on the sidelines. Won’t be having much cattle left. Similar to the Eagles last year we will be getting FA output on the training track with so few players out there you could barely do any match simulation drills.

Ffs now MRJ is injured and looks like he will be out for some time. This really is the year from hell

20 tackles in half of footy considering they’ve had 48% of time with ball in possession is a disgusting statistic. I can accept losing but we aren’t having a crack at all. How teams constantly break out tackles is beyond me. And it’s not just our kids who can’t stick tackles, it’s premiership...

Dogs have had 43 inside 50’s and 21 scoring shots in a half. It’s actually a miracle it’s only 47 points atm.

For someone in their ‘peak’ Short has declined so rapidly I can’t even begin to explain how much of a contrast it has been.

Conceding only 3 goals when they’ve had 23 inside 50’s is a huge tick to our backline. Vlos leading the D50 again, been huge!

Very late to the party but just wanted to thank Benny for his service and just as importantly how he’s handled himself to the end. Never lied, remained as honest as he could be. The ultimate professional. Can’t thank him enough for being a huge part of our successes in 2017 & 2019 in...

Wowee that was one hell of a game. Izzo has had the game of his life!!!

Against Darcy and Jackson it was inevitable. I would’ve preferred Ryan over Naismith but there was no way they were going to let Nank ruck solo or we would’ve lost by 15 goals today.

All three of them are best as outside receivers who are damaging by foot. Whose currently feeding them from inside the stoppages?

Just need to look at the KPIs I50s 38 v 59 Clearances 16 v 36 Centre clearances 5 v 14 Tackles 40 v 60 36% of game time ball was in our hands. Our forward line is completely undermanned as it is but when you have stats like that they don’t even have half a chance. Desperately need some...

Clearence count for the day 12 v 28 Centre clearences 4 v 10 Defenders are doing ok to concede 10 goals considering the supply that is coming inside of D50

Can’t wait to draft a quality mid. Need some quality so we can win some clearances in the future

In some of the instances of my inner circle. They lean on family members such as grandparents to give them a chop out with looking after the kids. If the grandparents are retired and healthy they love having one on one time with kids and it gives them something to look forward to during the...

Was that the one who was DJ’ing on a plane mid flight?

I haven’t paid close attention to the league this season but a Victory v City and Sydney v Macarthur in week 1 of finals should be some really appealing fixtures to get some enthusiasm going into finals.

It’s done and Calder Cannons use it as a home base. Probably sufficient for TAC Cup but the gulf in standards between that an AFL training venue would be chalk and cheese.

Could there be a record for a season low score for Richmond vs Freo? Both sides can barely kick over 8 goals. Could be an all time snore fest

Young was excellent down back. Used the ball alright considering his limitations. Dow did well in the guts, hoping he can put on some strength as he still gets out bodied by the seasoned midfielders of the game. MRJ excellent, best game I’ve seen him play. Hopefully he builds on it and gets...

Honestly Yze is getting the most out of this squad on paper. Was expecting an easy 10 goal loss tonight. The kids have been good.

Our strength and conditioning has been atrocious for a few years now. Club just has to put better resources into it in the off season.

It’s probably more Naismith that May and Lever are feasting on but yep Lafau is doing the best he can against some elite defenders.

Best game by a mile that I’ve seen MRJ ever. Been outstanding. Really wish we had one of Balta or Lynch on the park. Our forward line is so disfunctional without them, Lafau trying but it’s too much of an ask for him to take the #1 defender in the air.

Probably better we have a horrid year with injuries when we aren’t contending

I don’t know why it always happens to us but imagine Carlton’s forward line without Curnow and McKay or Geelong’s without Hawkins and Cameron.

And being 1 point off a GF the year before was a fluke also? Going from 17th to a prelim to a flag doesn’t just happen by chance.
