Look at Carlton.
Is their win against Brisbane now diminished? What about their late capitulation to the then winless Crows? The fortuitous win against Freo (excluding the free kick controversy)? You can only imagine the response had it been us in their place.
Their win last week was...
As an outspoken critic of him, I often wonder how he handled Gary Rohan's match winning performance in the 2022 QF? A victory that basically put one hand on the cup.
We really need to reopen the "Opposition fans say the strangest things" thread again. I've found so much gold from last night alone that needs sharing!
5-4 after 9 rounds. Not one of us expected the perfection that was to come.
This is a completely different group, but at the moment they're proving my pre-season prediction right that last year was an aberration.
Smashed in CP by 20, but it was clear we were happy enough to give up the contest and sit an extra two behind the ball, knowing how lethal we are off turnovers.
Scotty and his group schooled Fagan again.
Nah, he's just as bad as the others. A perennial sicknote for 7 years that orchestrated his move north to be with his pal Lachie as soon as the club finally got him right.
F*** him!
Tom's rarely done it, so I'm not sure why you're so concerned about it now. In fact most KPF don't do it, or if they do, it's a sporadic thing.
It's also why they love having Rohan there, as his work often equates to that of two men with the amount of chasing and harassing he does. Add in...
Looked a frustrated and unhappy guy at times today I thought. Probably because he wasn't playing well, but didn't feel the body language was great.
And let's be honest, there's only so many thumpings a player can tolerate before it starts getting you down.
Funny how our form is questioned due to the records of sides we've beaten (which is fair), but the media continued to drool over Carlton despite their questionable list of opponents so far, bar Brisbane, who as it turned out, have only showed up in the past fortnight.
Narratives and all that...
V/Line usually plan shutdowns around the footy, so you'll find they don't have much of a say in this one as it's a Rail Projects Victoria decision and generally these things are planned months and months in advance, well before the fixture is released.
If PFD is ready, do we bring him back this week or hold him back in the knowledge of the tough stretch following this week? Brisbane, Carlton, Melbourne, Port and Gold Coast are all difficult matchups.
Surely he doesn't play this week.
Couldn't have set ourselves any better after the first month. Undefeated, 8 home games to come and reinforcements to return. It's a great situation we're in.
Tonight got closer than it should have, and I put that down to fatigue off the Monday slog and only five days between matches. Until that...
He's hardly Robinson Crusoe in not having an opposite foot, many league players don't.
Obviously the club are more concerned with what he can do with his right leg and his footy IQ more than not having an opposite foot.
Players want to play for him. This is not only crucial to the current group, but any players looking to change clubs.
Throw it alongside the lifestyle factor, as well as the work/life balance factor and you have a club that is the envy of the rest of the competition and an enticing prospect for...
I saved it to my wallet, but still had the live barcode feature on it? Took me ages for the scanner to recognise my phone too.
I'm old fashioned, but I preferred the traditional plastic card, much more reliable!
It didn't. But did anyone stand out from either side? There was an evenness across the board. Danger had some key moments and his explosion from the contest is still elite, even if he's lost a yard of pace.
So Clark gets a fine for a tackle that was barely even a free, let alone one that warrants a punishment from the MRO. Just laughable.
Good to see some things still haven't changed. And that goes too for the bog average umpiring we were subjected too last night.
