I love our DNA so much it's unreal

we are bad

I do think Farris-White is a total spud but he's no hope of improving with 50% time on ground playing entirely forward. Ideally he would be playing first ruck at a lower level but the VFL ressies was sacked off ages ago (I believe he was able to play in the NAB league last year but is too old...

Not sure Verrall has the forward chops to play as a backup to Max but he's showing really good signs in the ruck, could see him being the long term replacement.

I hope we can't play much worse than that.

Plenty of negatives but the difference in strength in tackling has been infuriating.

Great high stoppage game of footy our DNA is on display

You just get the feeling the Freo fans aren't going to be happy with that one don't you dennis

Costly 50 given away by Reid late in the quarter, Sydney have not been impressive at all.

West Coast in complete control of this quarter, bizarre to watch. Reid showing plenty.

Not just tonight, been losing this way for years. No pressure forwards, mids that don't run both ways, back 6 is poxy. Some talent there but don't see them beating many good sides until they learn to defend. Just quietly burned a heap of top 10 draft picks on average players too.

Bombers still can't defend.

Not a great game, crows especially bad and made it pretty easy for our interceptors. Good to punish them enough to get a lead and hold on with lots of cooked players in the last quarter but we'll have to be better against good opposition. Not heaps of great individual games but Windsor and...

Absolute class from Windsor there, Hunt-like I daresay.

Billings has to kick that f me

Dare say most of us are more interested in what the guy at our club is contributing to our team, and what he could become, than how he measures up against one who forced a move away. Not sure I get your point.

How often did we bemoan our wingers getting sucked into the contest to try to win the ball or tackle before we went and recruited some who actually know how to play the position? Not like he's shirking the contest when he does have to go either. Playing his role fine and we're getting glimpses...

Ah yes, tackles; the best metric to measure wingmen by lmao. I like him, good composure and awareness to go with the speed.

Petterd smashing the ground after dropping a mark in the goal square with 1 second to go against Collingwood

+21 inside 50s for Port, backline held up well without May. Nice to be the team who makes the most of their chances for once. Maybe ANBs best game.

Yep his lack of physicality is very noticeable even at this level, will get bullied by AFL rucks / defenders.

Amusing play on and fend attempt from a Casey player (not sure who) deep in defense gives up a cheap goal. Pretty dominant quarter and should be in front but for the misses and soft goals.

Tholstrup takes a really strong mark in the middle then instantly turns it over, has shown some decent signs though.

At least Jeffo is getting involved now and taking some strong marks, shame about his shots. Pretty handy goal for Harmes who has had a lot of the ball.

Jeffo sprays another from the exact same spot after being hit well on the lead.

Don't seem to have a good matchup for Lobb when he's playing forward and he easily outbodied Fullarton when he drifted forward from the ruck. Easy to say after that qtr but I'm more optimistic about Verrall than Fullarton from what I've seen of both.

Casey playing well atm against plenty of experienced WB listed players. Bullet pass from Tholstrup to hit Sestan on the lead (I assume since the camera didn't follow it) for another goal.

Surprisingly good conditions for footy at Casey, seems to be little to no wind at the moment.

Verrall has been excellent early handling the ball cleanly and using it well by hand. Kicked a clever goal too.
