The AFL gets that they need to at least make a token effort to remind people that there's a pandemic going on and that players and coaches can't just ignore everything.

Finally got to watch the replay.
Redman is just a straight up badass now and a lil bit scary!
Our trajectory really couldn't be better momentum and injury wise.
I like that the back six actually tempo'd a bit more and seemingly vairied the press aggression. To see them fan back deep as per the situation has been something I wanted to see a bit more of all year, instead of that brutal press that looked to be a bit of a problem conceding turn over goals (This pleases me greatly as I'm now convinced they are/were aware of it and can adapt)
Cutler, it's almost like getting consecutive games into him has allowed him to flourish etc.
What a weapon he can be now he's believing and coached properly!
All other good things have been disusussed at length through the thread and love we get to share this moment after what we've been through.
Ok now a slight eyebrow raise... There is a distinct moment around 12.20 Q4, maybe even a bit before where I feel we switched off for a bit. Fortunately we snapped out of it and continued on our way but it's there and probably easy to overlook in all the good feels we experienced about this win. Can't be doing that at anytime in the coming game/games, especially in this current climate. We've seen countless momentum comebacks this season.
All in all it was fantastic ripping up those Magpies and landing in the 8. It's a pretty big deal what's going on with some of the heartache thats come with being a long serving Bombers fan. Not entirely for just making the 8, but more the journey we've been on since it all went so pear shaped last season and we looked so broken.
Thank you EFC...

Enjoying shit teams being easy for us now. It never used to be like this. Good system in place. Natural progression says that hard games become 60/40s and 50/50s soon.
I've really enjoyed what Cutler has brought of late.Finally got to watch the replay.

Redman has been immense. Loved his cracking the s***s over the dangerous tackle and walking off.
Dev brought a Dev game for the ages. Reminded us all how sharp that footy IQ is.
Dare say, he does that this weekend, Daniel becomes less an issue.
