Great effort smashed them in the contest and out of the centre. Both sides had chances late. As others have said percentage no longer a factor with the extra 2 points

Really got to wonder why Clarkson took on such a huge task at North he's got nothing left to prove. Feels like Mick Malthouse when he got kicked out of Collingwood to Carlton, heart is not in it any more

Obvious change would be Draper for Wright, Wright can play ruck/resting forward role on less minutes without affecting structures Tempting also to go no changes with Wright having a hitout in the VFL first to regain fitness

Anyone got a video edit of Luke Hodge sooking it up? **** that was great viewing

Seems pretty amateur that the better the player the more likely the AFL will protect them at tribunal

List management should be cleared out. Why get so many young midfielders without any experienced big bodies to support them? Why completely ignore key position players

Yeo playing some inspired footy him and Reid really bullying the injury depleted Tigers

This guy is relentless does not give up and trains like he plays. Got to fast track him to the centre square on a more regular basis

I underestimated this guy but early days he is playing well. Looked worse while playing with North but the amount of pressure he had to keep their otherwise non-existent defense functioning probably played a part in that

Looked like he collapsed live hopefully he is getting checked out properly behind the scenes

You seem upset that we won I love it

That's the stuff keep it coming big boy

Really enjoying Essendon’s joker arc where the opposition suddenly gets thrown into internal chaos if we beat them. Bevo has been cooked mentally for years

Feel we've been a bit lucky with our goals while they have fluffed a lot. Parish refuses to chase defensive transition still terrible

The way Selwood played got to worry he could have some mild form of CTE. Maybe commentating not his strong suit

Durham and Tsatas for Setterfield and Perkins, Durham to tag Bont, Merrett vs Libba. Push Redman up to a wing as he looks lost down back at the moment. Cox on thin ice maybe Hayes gets a run soon as our backline is super ordinary

Outlaw double goals from free kicks, second free kick should be taken from the centre of the ground if dissent is after the first goal

Looks like you were stewing on that comment for a whole week so the troll was successful, wondering why this thread was still active

1 challenge per team per game is not going to have a major impact on extra time but it could prevent end of game scenarios like these The technology probably needs to catch up to being more definitive to be really good Can't think of many other sports that don't have these challenge systems...

Clearance structure was a disaster when they can constantly chain out through the front running into forward 50 the defence has no hope. The difference in speed with Rozee/Butters/JHF was obvious. There needs to be a Plan B instead of all out attack at centre bounce when the opposition gets on...

Port's pacy mids so quick out of stoppage got to keep wearing them out physically as the game wears on

Ginnivan is being umpired differently but he is still playing for free kicks every time he gets dispossessed. He has to earn trust back that that part of his game is finished before the umpires will play the legit frees. Lindsay Thomas went through a similar boy cry wolf phase at North

Baker 2 weeks careless high impact high contact (which should have been the same as Wright) Minus good bloke tax and media darling = fine

West Coast should be front of the queue, North have a midfield made up of single digit picks like an expansion club

Eagles player development since their premiership in 2018 fell off a cliff, still their aging stars carrying the rest. Don't know why they haven't cut Simpson

Does anyone have the numbers on how many of his kicks in 2023 were from kick-ins? Will be interesting to see if his numbers drop off as a pure mid and if that affects his Brownlow chances

Probably thought their practice match was their real form big reality check

What a salty post game thread pretty funny that the Saints belted us in pre season but it counts for nought

Less coast to coast scores conceded. Pressure good around the ball. Some double grabs in defense were very costly. Saints are well drilled but gee they can butcher the ball

Went too hard on the colombian marching powder. I do wonder if inside mids take a hit pre-game to reach their inner bull state
