Good to see the mental fortitude of JJ. I only watched the first half and he was ordinary - hopefully he continues his last quarter form into next week
I'll never say no to a 50 point win, but Carlton were woeful. Probably the 2nd worst team in the league right now behind West Coast. Played effectively 2 men down with a one legged Weitering and McGovern.
That said, great to see Jackson make the most of his opportunity. Our handball + i50 game...
Very exciting game this week! Sorely tempted to work from home on Monday.
I've been waiting for us to drop a game for a while now, and it is yet to occur. So maybe all these one score wins are an indication of strength rather than weakness...
I'd also like to apologise to Sam Darnold for...
Agree to an extent, although Bergman wouldv'e played closer to Cameron than Aliir for sure.
But yep, without midfield/upfield pressure, it's far too easy to score. That's why it doesn't matter what players we added or dropped, the mentality of the group i.e. lack of chase and intent (which is...
Depends if we shifted our gameplan to accomodate Marshall - if it was the same kick long and compete, then probably not.
Sinn or Jones, doesn't really matter.
When you are getting spanked by 80 points, replacing a player or two isn't making a significant difference.
Was a member from ~2002-2019. Didn't renew after our massive lost to North with Top 8 on the line. COVID then made it financially silly to be a member, plus the disdain for the regime.
Wanted to vote for Tredrea for the board and couldn't as I wasn't a member in 2023. Joined up as Tredders won...
While it's tempting to tee off at all the players for last night, whether the supposed guns (Rozee, Butters) or the bottom enders (McEntee, F. Evans), every single one played badly. And not only that, but this is the fourth home final shellacking in a row where the entire team were unprepared...
Given the character assassination of Petracca, Pickett isn't going to come out and say he wants a trade unless it's sewn up.
TBH I don't think he'll get traded anyways, but all this idle chatter before trade period is so manufactured
Yeah I don't see him doing so. But the threat of it may reduce Melbourne's insistence on keeping him if he is adamant on leaving. Especially if bridges have already been burned -> what's the point on holding onto him if he refuses to play?
I assume, even if he wouldn't be getting paid, it would...
