Excellent! But the usual lapses in the last 2 minutes of the quarter are damn frustrating. 1 goal 2 points to the Pies. Lucky it wasn't 3 goals.

The difference between a dominant quarter and an OK quarter.

Stop the game now.

Nowadays we take them out of the side…

A youngster in Scott's eyes is anyone over 26

Barrass's attempt to use the "Good Guy Defence" (GGD) failed at the tribunal tonight. This is despite: (1) the tackles between Barrass and Cameron being almost identical. And in both cases, the tacklee played on and had no issue after the game. (2) like Cameron, Barrass has done a lot of w...

Most Goal Assists: Jade Gresham / Jye Gresham (5)

This Jye Gresham must have been a quiet recruiting coup.

Toby Greene's 1 match ban has been upheld. Yet Hogan got off for his 2 blows to the head (with open hand) because he didn't hit hard enough. I remember when you would get 1-2 weeks for "attempting to strike". So Hogan's intentional attack got off, while Greene's unintentional act in the co...

This.

Also keep Davey. He play his best game for us on Saturday.

Not sure what Shiel would add to the team.

Toby Greene gets a week for actually contesting the ball? That is f*****. I don't like Toby much, but he had every right to protect himself while attempting to mark, so did Jordan Boyd ... but he didn't. Are we getting to the point where a lesser skilled player who has poor technique is protected ov...

Bryan got a fair bit of the pill. How far is he off playing for the seniors?

Drop him for 2MP please.

He was abysmal. Worst ruck performance since Zombie Clarke pulled on our jumper.

I'd go back to Kepler...

Pinched it. The commentators are banging on about the Draper non-free with 7 seconds to go. We were owed one. Its a makeup for the free + 50 neither of which were there. Should have been a 5 goal win... about 10 fumbles close to goal and 10 shit shots for goal... Bloody hell we were awful up forward.

7 unanswered goals to Adelaide.

Disgraceful.

Forward 50 is just putrid.

If it wasn't for Stringer, we would be 4 goals down.

Langford is having a mare... 8 clangers (though that last free against him was f****** frivolous).

At least Parish lifted, though his disposal is still crap.

WTF? 3 charity goals in a row ...

Had 70% of the pill and it was in our forward line a lot, but failed to score.

Hind and Draper were woeful.

What happened to turn Parish into such a spud? 1 Tackle and 1 HB for 0% accuracy... Yeah 1 point... but geez.

Redman also.

The usual suspects with crap disposal doing the usual.

Makes sense.

Being reported that McGrath is being offered a 6 year contract extension.
