We played Hind out of position Hind this season is below average for disposals, marks, tackles, goals, clearances, effective disposals, disposal efficiency, meters gained, contested possessions, and pressure acts. Not sure this position suits him either apparently. Just a deficient player sadly. Pr...

Pies rely on speed on the large MCG.

I wonder who Jack would have replaced in our team that beat Collingwood earlier this year.

I didn’t watch the game but it looks like he was sub initially, came on for 7 touches… maybe finished the game off?

Interesting stat posted on Saints Uncensored

King 149 goals in 77 games.
Hawkins 90.
Curnow 124.
Brown 87

King 155 contested marks
Hawkins 106
Curnow 120
Brown 115

Just that former players who we thought were s*** Seemed to be going ok elsewhere I don’t think many ppl thought that Gresh was s*** - consistency has always been the issue. Has been decent for the bombers but his performances don’t look to me like he’s improved out of sight. Not sure that he’s wor...

Ben Long on display at GC today

14 touches, 2 goals, 3 tackles

Hate to ruin your thunder NDC… But the Bermuda Triangle has throughly been debunked as a myth. In terms of location, where things went missing, what was found… with modern tech, more or less everything has been accounted for so there is no mystery there. As for the St.Kilda FC, good luck to any of ...

You look at that senior core today at the top of the list… Ross had a stinker and though he’s been quite consistent the last few years, these performances are starting to occur with increased frequency Crouch will be dependent on his injury. Jones is getting super hero status being out of the team b...

Looks about right to me though I suspect we’d keep both Battle and Hayes.

I’d keep most on the interesting pile too

Geeez that’s embarrassing

Geeez Bonner let himself down there

There you have it again… King in front. Jumps and marks

General observations…

King - one instance where the ball went to him and he leapt at it = mark and goal

Howard - looks a heck of a lot better when he is doing defender things rather than looking to perform circus tricks

A new experience for me…

My Kayo is 25s behind live play.

Every time a forward takes a mark, I can look at the app to see if they kick it.

Strange way to watch but does a lot to reduce anxiety. I feel like a clairvoyant

Breust for Hawks

Do’h

I don’t get it. What could you hope to get from Paton late in the game other than for him to come on and possibly blanket a staring Hawk mid.

I’d have had him top 22 or nothing

I’ve locked the thread - Euro-Yroke Whilst there were semblances of interesting conversation there… it took a dark turn once we got into the justifications/rationalisations/paternalism area. That invoked a very strong response and that’s where the thread was worth stopping following numerous reports.

Hi everyone… I’m going to lock this topic as it’s gotten quite hostile with quite a few questionable posts. Apologies for not acting sooner but it wasn’t one I was keeping an eye on.

16 disposal second half is worth some kudos

Far from a complete performance though

4 touches to half time is a disgraceful effort

Is getting some touches now… a further 7 so far in the third but no real impact

I reckon Paton plays mid and perhaps Bonner spends more upfield.

Seems like he’ll play a tagging role I guess. I feel like this is quite a well balanced team


Emer: Campbell, Byrnes, Pou

And the fairy tale is over

Paton and Henry in
Phillipou and Byrnes out

Phillipou, Byrnes and Campbell emergencies

I’d be excited to see Schoenmaker play…
Something about the kid. Feels like this was a bumper draft year

Really depends on the context. Sometimes a weighted value on a particular way of thinking could be a sign of autism… especially if it’s evident from a young age and prevalent across the lifespan (effect of support/severity) not withstanding. Alternatively, sometimes people suddenly latch on to mecha...

Or you could just not be Grandpa Mike. You know Grandpa Mike. Every family reunion everybody has to cater to his absurd hate of the colour red. No rhyme or reason to it… that’s just his thing. So the whole family goes to the effort of making sure that his plates, cups etc don’t have any red on them....
