    AFL Toast Nailbiter against The West Coast

    I slightly disagree. I thought they were average last night and we should’ve won by more. They may have improved, got some players back, and have a greater intensity, but that’s not saying much in comparison to what they’ve been like in recent years. I never felt like they were going to get...

    AFL Toast Nailbiter against The West Coast

    Funnily enough, both teams from the drawn Anzac Day game have won by a goal the following week.

    AFL Toast Nailbiter against The West Coast

    Kept fluffing our lines in front of goal. Gave WC a sniff all game and sure enough they came at us near the end. Why why why can’t we just get a stranglehold on a game (other than the Bulldogs game)? Merrett is a gem.

    He could’ve at least done it in the last 5 mins of the game after helping beat the Swans and giving me some SuperCoach satisfaction.

    Granted, with the proviso that he got himself in some sort of physical health 😂 I just think that players who come from nowhere early in their career (ie mid-low draft picks) to be competent players, often get there because they thrive in the environment that brought that out in them...

    Orazio is one of those players who would’ve benefitted from sticking at the club where he found a niche (positional and cultural). He’d still be an important player at Essendon imo.

    I know that. I’m being a bit facetious.

    There were several instances during the game I thought to myself, “this Butters fella is better than I thought the way he reads the play off hands and wheels through traffic like the Roadrunner. However, I agree that if you can put some work into him around stoppages you can nullify his...

    A bit of that for sure but they were ‘on’ against us - dynamic, incisive and everything they did came off. Yes, we allowed it but Port were about 500% more switched on than they were against Adelaide. Pricks 😁

    I think the only violent power athlete in soccer is Haaland to be fair.

    The Messi way - walk around the pitch taking in the machinations of the game before inserting himself into dangerous positions.
