Im frustrated it was a draw, but everyone should remember playing the Pies is a mini grand final for every team. No other team has to deal with the opposition "getting up" to beat the Pies. Add that we are reigning premiers, and it's twice the insentive.

His parents were sitting behind us, sure they were impressed with his game.

Built like Tarzan, plays like Jane.

Let's be brutilly honest. We dont have the population to sustain 19 teams. Disband the AFL and create a super league. WA = 2 teams SA = 2 teams NT = 1 team Tassie = 1 team QLD = 2 teams NSW = 2 teams (1 in Syd & 1 in Canberra) VIC = 6 teams 16 teams in total, play eachother twice.

Does everyone realise when you name a player in your thread, AI automatically fills out all the data on said player making thread messages way longer than needed.

I have no words at the disappointment of 2024.

Its a f...g disgrace the AFL does not have 7 showing day games on Sat or Sun. Who negotiated the rights deal? Fred Flinstone?

There is no doubt we were 4 weeks off the pace. While we were celebrating the other teams were hard at work. You could see from tonight how a month has made a diff. Bring the pressure and intensity and see the results. Onward and upwards!

Attitude is King in AFL. Go out there with the wrong head space, and you are cooked. Got nothing to do with being worked out. 2023 proved that on any given day, any team can win, draw, or lose.

Who is your Pies Barometre? For me its Crispy. If he is on, the whole team is on. In the last 2 weeks, he has been targeted, and we have looked poor. Who also thinks we played better in early 2023 when Naicos was directing the play from the backline? He can basically play anywhere, so we...

1000% agree. WE, and i mean everyone, STOP telling others what they should or should not do OR how they should or should not feel. EVERYONES' point of view is valid. if you want to control people, then go to China or Russis.

Just before the 1st Swans goal in front of the Olympic stand, Sidey and Issac shouted at each other about who should have gaurded the space. I knew from that moment, it was going to be a long night. In 2023, everyone knew where to be and what to do. Footy is 95% in the head. Attitude is king...

I think the players watched "Saltburn" too many times and drank there own bath water!

Yep, cannot be relied on. If he doesnt mark it has no follow up. Ok for the VFL, wont cut it in the big league. Rather Reef be played so he can learn under pressure and get experience.

I dont like the "we kicked too many" points excuse. So many of those were under pressure hence why we missed. If the majority were set shots then blame kicking. Defence all across the ground was poor and usual pressure was lacking. Too many witches hats out there tonight. We learn and move on.
