Why isn't Treloar getting talked up for the Brownlow. Gets 30+ every week and it's a midfielder award.
Grundy would be right up there too I rkn

Absolutely he should be. Gets 50 hit outs every week plus 20+ disposals. I would disappointed if he isn't starting ruck in the AA this year.

There was an article in last weeks Herald that talked at length about the fall in scores this year despite the 6-6-6. It blamed the coaches, and as far as I can see it is correct. Our relatively high scores are therefore more meritorious.
The article also mentioned the motivation for The AFL to increase scoring: more 30 second ad breaks to sell. It also noted the refusal to consider that the real damper is interchange, and until this is addressed, the problem will remain as coaches exploit the ability of players to run longer and harder to clog up the game.
Our team's defensive capabilities, this year and last, show that our coaches are very good at the clogging up techniques. Once again they did it with key personnel absent and an apparent imbalance in our defence.
Mihocek has to be recognized as a very good player, and talk of his unusual road to success is now not the story.
Stephenson has been the steal of his draft year.
Our ability to hit targets kicking under pressure is our biggest weakness when compared to the other good sides.

Cox, DeGoo, Adams, Sier, Moore and Billy - each and every one supposedly critical to our 2019 chances out with Checkers copping a couple of head knocks and Langers out for the last half almost.
So a lot of the cream missing from the mix but we still rise to the occasion, some of you on here will never acknowledge the power and relentlessness of this group but I guarantee you all the other senior coaches and 90% of the media are very much aware of it.
It is partly the playing list but mostly the system that is the key to this team - lose a player, simples, just plug another of the multi positional trained soldiers in and continue on.
We proved it last year and are doing so again this year but even better yet some of you will not relent.
If I hear one more time about how much this team is overrated, or this midfield is overrated I'm going to lose it big time.
Those of you who keep trotting out that absolute and utter trash have NFI.

No wonder we're after Langdon's brother if he has speed. Still... 6.6 to 1.0 in the last quarter is brutal and exactly what we should be able to do as a top team
Definitely he was an absolute boss today just needs the media behind him for it to happen
Wow the filters on the site are really vicious we are apparently not to use the letters N and F and I consecutively anymore because I've edited that 'no idea' twice now to those three letters.

I was thinking the same. It appeared like a repeat of last week but what with Saints being a much better side than Carlton, we wouldn’t be able to hold them out and get the win. That was a great last quarter, absolutely put the Saints away.

Super impressive last quarter.
Very proud of the boys.

Thought we were in trouble a few times, our leg speed is a really worry
Difference in the was centre breaks in the last Qtr, you could see the confidence grow on the ground when we got to 4 goals up.
Grundy is unbelievable

Highlight of my day was siting in front of Warney and asking him where he was going half way through the last.
Ha, ha, brilliant. We were sitting in M25 and the standing room ferals up the back started chanting “nah, nah,nah, nah ... nah, nah, nah, nah .... hey, hey goodbye” at the Saints supporters getting up and leaving after stevo’S barrel. It was gold
