Big call when we have a player on the list who kicked 3.6 in a knockout final in his prime and has returned a whopping 5 goals in 5 finals since.

Ah, I must have forgotten that rule in the AFL Laws of the game that forwards aren't allowed to play well every week.

Good to see Anasta kick no score on the weekend. Keep that up for a couple more weeks and he can prove to Ken that he can be a like-for-like replacement for the Cheese

Love watching him at full flight, one of our most exciting players to watch. But fair to say it's hard to be exuberant given he went missing in Q2 and Q3 when Collingwood were on a rampage last week, similar to going missing in Q2 in the GWS SF when they were on a rampage, similar to going...

Yeah I'm very ok with not reducing ANZAC day to another cash grab opportunity.

Squad depth isn’t the problem, it would just mask the issue that Hinkley needs a team full of AA calibre players to make up for his strategic and tactical ineptitude. Carlton were missing Saad, Cerra, Docherty, McGovern, Silvagni, Motlop and still got the job done over GWS. I’m not saying our...

lol yeah I’ve seen enough of this game. Peace out folks ✌️

Yeah, we’re cooked

Getting torn to shreds here. We will lose this if we can’t shake something up

Not well, apparently.

Pies have woken up. How will we cope from here?

The difference in percentage is 18.97% - Carlton is literally twice as good as Hawthorn, that's not a small variance at all.

That data also points out that we have the second highest percentage of shots taken from outside 50 in the comp, behind carlton. So we attempt the second most, but have one of the worst success rates.

He's a funny one to compare with Hinkley, because outside of 2016, he's literally only won finals in one year - 2021. But even with all that fail he still managed to jag a premiership somehow, not to mention two grand final appearances. Like if that's not proof that Hinkley should have a GF...

Feel like you're downplaying Hinkley's undefeated streak against Gold Coast here

Still one of the most pea-hearted moments I've seen from a footballer. Absolutely shat himself when that final siren went for what was a pretty regulation set shot.

He knew.

There are times when getting those possessions are important, last night wasn’t one of them. I didn’t think Jackson had any real impact on the game, and each touch he had was one less Serong or Young had. 13 more touches for only 35 extra metres gained, same amount of marks, one less i50, one...

Nah Soldo was very solid. Had 18 HOs to advantage - twice as many as Jackson and Treacy combined. Was vital is equalising stoppages with our on ballers getting beaten otherwise

Bit concerning to see our midfield go to water in a tough game once again. Getting hard to write it off as inexperience now

I’d like to congratulate Luke Ryan for breaking the record for most intercept marks in a season off of tonight’s effort alone

He's kicked 21 goals total in the last five years. Suggestions like this just highlight the dire state of our forward line.

In some respects, sure. Still also worth pointing out in his single final for the club he had seven touches, no marks, and one behind. He may have dominated the HOs, but perma-injured Vardy and the long-retired ghost of Petrie smashed him around the ground and their aerial presence one of the...

Yeah not so much a clanger king, but never really was able to find any outside ball and his kicking had no hurt factor. Probably more a vision and decision making improvement rather than skill improvement

Dunno about that. Lobbe + Ryder and Ryder + Lycett got trotted out a few times when all were healthy. We have a clear design to play with height at the moment, so wouldn't rule it out.

Drew has developed a real ability to impact games now with his kicking, which was a massive deficiency for him in his earlier years. Can't quite remember a player developing such a crucial skill to the same extent the way Drew has done.

I mean, Jed McEntee is in our starting 18 so that isn't exactly a high bar

Out: McEntee - will never happen

So 'full and frank admissions, apologies and contrition' bought the suspension down to three weeks. So I'd imagine for Clarko to avoid suspension entirely for the exact same incident only a month ago must mean he went straight out to Mardi Gras to offer his apologies in the most affectionate...
