Van Rooyan has some campaigner about him. I like that

 

[Holden Hillbilly]

Lachie Hunter tough as nails!!!

Poor man's Lachie Jones

 

[Handyandy]

McEntee is playing better than Pickett at the moment

 

[Grave Danger]

Looks like there will be daylight between us and 3rd.

On another note it looks like $turt will have their first loss and the deadlegs their first win for 2023.

Just had a look at the half time stats for the SANFL games - free kick count dead level in one and 14-12 in the other.

Kosi needs a new watch

 

[Handyandy]

Funny that a few on here wanted to sell the farm to get Pickett in.

 

[PortWTF]

4th umpire if they're going to pay free kicks off the ball should only be watching off the ball, not something that happens in the corner of their eye

TBF - that check on Frisch definitely was above the shoulder. Will get called every time. Not sure wtf BT et al were going on about it. Good call.

 

[Handyandy]

100% agree.

Reminds me a bit of a sign that I saw outside the Lockleys Primary School last week: 'Good things happen to good people'.

Err. No. 's**t things happen to good people - often'

but I guess that wouldn't look good outside a primary school.

Flinders park primary had one of those public signs with a catchy new saying on it each week and someone used to get up and rearrange it

One time it read We Welcome students back and it was changed to We come on students backs

Shaun struggles as a boundary rider the words come out like mashed potato.

 

[afl2004]

Both teams from last Friday are being punished for a terrible game by not being able to kick straight lol

 

[Festerz]

Yep.

But a reminder Channel 7s elite standards of voice modulation and english composition for boundary riders were set several years ago by Mark Ricciuto.

I think of Tali van Normandy every time I see his name...

 

[Capital Power]

Just looking at the rest of our season and it's just dawned on me that after finishing 11th, we've been given four top eight teams and last year's premiers (plus Richmond) as double-ups. If we do finish top 2 or even top 4, it'll be a bloody good performance.

Thirsty for the Migrant Fleet anal?

 

[Capital Power]

Watching this afternoon's game I reckon we'd be giving either of these teams a run. Collingwood don't look as daunting as they should.

Meanwhile the crows double up against a bunch of the dregs.

Without Degoey and Oliver they both are missing some venom at the contest


Allowing Moore on Fritcsh is alarm bells for me, great match up for the pies

As with all really good sides you have to hang with them and match the pressure, cracks can then appear.

But then again....

 

[TazD]

Neither of these teams are a threat to us now that we've received Tredreas buff.

 

[PowerLil]

Lachie Hunter would've got away with dropping to his knees in a Bulldogs guernsey.

 

[Brian McGee]

I hate that dangerous tackle call. There was nothing dangerous about it other than the pies player leaning his face into the turf post tackle.
