St Kilda scored essentially the same way at Adelaide Oval the week before, so it's nothing to do with the MCG

There's some of the that. But it's still about running to the right spots and sticking your tackles.
The impressive thing for us was the footskills and uncontested marking.
That's repeatable and should hold us in good stead.

Still adding some extra scoring yesterday. Both ours & opponents. Felt we moved the ball even easier with more space to lead into yesterday, bit harder to defend.
Gold Coast will be a good measure. We will have to improve to be a top 4 side.
GWS, Geelong, GC, Hawks, Lions will cut us up otherwise.

Good interview of Rory Laird on this channel 7 Football show
The old Blight "we'll just kick more goals than you" trick
If the MRO has any concept of "potential to cause injury to a player" he should get 3 weeks for tunnelling Thilthorpe. Gutless cheap & petulant act by a much over rated player
Matt. Easily.

You'd have to say Matt by the length of the straight.
We were $26 in the pre-season and have come in to $13 on Sportsbet.
The Hawks are $6 favourites despite allowing the hopeless Bombers score 85 points at the G last week and only winning by 26 points.
Imho, changes in premiership odds are pretty meaningless this early in the season.

By longer sprigs, balance classes, or Butts IN for Keane?
It was a blatant holding free; Keane was holding one of Draper's arms with both hands (a la Eddie Betts being held same way in 2017 GF, except NO free, of course
), here:
In Keane's defence, he was caught out-of-position in a one-on-one by (Merrett) speed out of the Centre and a kick to Draper's advantage, and maybe he's been told to give away the deliberate/professional free kick in that situation ...?
It was still within Keane's control.
Yes; tell ROB to learn and remember the rules and pay more attention to the moment.
Yes, Merrett is a gun; seriously damaging. Ran all day, 4 goals and created others.
I can see why he was not tagged eg by Keays, because we were scoring so freely, but in a closer game I'd wanna see him corralled.

Yes very pleasing. He is the director of our forward line still and the reason everyone is getting a go is because of him. Had an equal high 10 score involvements yesterday with Keays, Rachele with 9, Fogarty and Thilthorpe with 8 and Neale-Bullen with 7
Our forward line is absolutely humming, every one is contributing well

Yes Matt has been excellent this season he's finally surrounded by the correct balance of midfielders so he can flourish doing what he does best.
We have a framed signed Matt Crouch photo on our mantle piece at home because Matt is my husband's favourite player.

We are now a very skilful side and the skills of our tall forward are unbelievable. All great shots at goal and passing.
It was pretty funny that Nic Martin did that goal celebration when Essendon were getting smashed

Never knew you were married to Bicks lol.
He wasn't a better player... he might have been s faster player... but he was still a crappy kick of the ball, i haven't checked but he wouldn't have the disposal efficiency of Matt. Matt has been unbelievably consistent his whole career except for the period of time he struggled with form and injury. Back to all Australian form coinciding with an equally stacked midfield as 2017.
Injuries took their toll on Brad, I've no doubt he would have been a better player.
Faster, stronger and more damaging

Rankine is justifying his pay cheque every week.
Tilthorpe, Fogarty, Rankine and Rachele all kicked at least 2 goals.
If all 4 kick 3 goals each, most signs point to a crows win.
Forward Line looks good in a post Tex Walker crows.

He also saves the greeting cards that he gets, which is nice
