Would have been great to pinch it. Our areas to improve are unmistakable. Love that we get another chance against them in June. Get some players back, go to work on our deficiencies and get the team peaking in the back half. Just need to bank wins vs good sides in the coming weeks.
Young - I had a suspicion he might come out and hold his own, and he did. Often looks alright without Weitering, he's good depth and he played well last night.
Hollands - tough game for him, just couldn't handle the greasy ball (wasn't alone) but he still scrapped and fought. On a dry deck on...
More important than the 600 games experience lost is the 70 odd finals games experience gained this year. This group is writing its own story and it's gonna be a hit.
For sure. Commentators saying throw a blanket over 11-30 prospects, but no doubt there are some that our team is especially keen on and rate highly. And by now they would have some idea of how much interest they have from other teams.
No issue with the Fisher trade, Austin doing his job of...
No overhaul needed, couple of shrewd moves and some internal growth gets us right there.
Plonk Corey Durdin in the gym all summer with footage of Brent Daniels on repeat on a screen in front of him.
Love that team. MC picked a team that gives us the best chance of beating the Lions at the Gabba. Smart smart smart, couple of pairs of fresh legs in, smaller backline, still have pressure up forward along with serious marking and goal kicking power.
No issue with Marchbank in, out team isn't too tall with him. If Young was playing instead of McGovern or Kemp then maybe, but those two can play small or tall and have pace. Our backline isn't too tall at all.
I like Pitto and TDK together, they sneaky work well in tandem. I think this team...
Good advice [emoji106]
I read on twitter another tip to use incognito mode to jump the queue, not sure of the validity but some saying it worked for them
Martin well held by Idun who wore him like a glove. Oppo teams will know the importance of limiting Martin in finals. This will be a challenge for him, but I thought Idun did a particularly good job on him
Generally agree about Hollands, but I think Sydney will be a match where this isn't exploited. I see them as having more running power than big body power. In fact, our contest work is going to be a big advantage, need to score off the back of it and defend well
I think that article is incorrect in saying that North hold Adelaide's 2nd rounder, they dont have a 2nd. Seems that their 3rd would be on offer.
I think a little while ago it was reported that we'd try to facilitate a trade and get Fisher to another club, but now he has some form, a new role...
My Saints mate reckon Gresh is being played out of position as a high half forward/impact mid. Rates him more as a crumbing small, and that his snaps for goals are very good compared to his often average field kicking.
I'm not against it, but contract would need to be minimal. Depth of...
Agree with some of this, but I don't think we should offload depth just for the sake of freeing up space. Sure, if we have someone in mind to bring in and we need to free up cash then we should consider a move, but I think we keep our depth as best as we can.
No to letting go of C Durdin, I...
So great to have this talent coming back. The big watch and question for me is two rucks plus SOS, H and Charlie. They haven't all played together during this streak and we look better for it. TDK, Harry and Charlie are locks as far as I'm concerned. I rate SOS more than Pitto, but Voss loves 2...
For those like me that are still buzzing over Friday's win and want to revel is some more media chatter about how impressive we were, here's the Saturday arvo ABC discussion; Clinchy, Ling and Ramanauskas.

That Freo result is gold for us. I'm sort of hoping the tigers knock off Melbourne tomorrow. We'd need to win all remaining games but we're an outside chance of pinching 4th. Getting wayyyy ahead of myself but I'm having a great time doing so
