Hastie did a few nice things, but was twice beaten one-on-one by Burgoyne. Worth a start next week for sure, but I am not totally enthused yet. Anyway, good luck to him.

5. Jack Sinclair. 3. Rowan Marshall. When he went down, the world was coming to an end, but he did a Gary Lazarus and fought on manfully all night. 2. Cal Wilkie . So reliable. 2. Darcy Wilson. Really looking the goods. 2. Marcus Windhager . Strong in and under. 1. Brad Hill. Superb early. Faded a b...

What's the point of all of this? We had a great ANZAC Day ceremony before the Pies vs the Bombers yesterday. ANZAC day is over. If AFL were played over Xmas-New Year, would Santa show up before the game on Boxing Day? Is that a rhetorical question, or do you genuinely want to be educated as to the ...

Demoralising. Hard to find votes, but here we go . 5. Brad Hill. Clearly our best early , when the pressure was hottest. 3. Marcus Windhager . Got it a bit. 3. Hugo Garcia. I like him a lot. 2. Seb Ross. Good endeavour. 1. Tim Membrey . Junk time goals , but at least he kicked them. 1. Cal Wilkie. I...

Aha - now they are only quadrupling us

Still early days, but ( with the greatest respect to Dan McKenzie ) I am very glad the club used that last pick on Arie.

I don't really know where to post it but Cordy was huge today. Not in any specific part of the game, but compared to the final last year he held his own, won his contests, and gave a bit where needed. Before the season I had Howard firmly ahead of him, but I think it's line ball right now. I agree....

Soft - even timid

Looks scared to have a shot

Doesn’t work hard and present

Needs a kick up the arse

Tough comments, but fair. He is disappointing.

He showed a bit in pre-season, and really franked it today.

Can't remember when it was - that is why the rule came in - because a player from North took literally a minute to have his sho in the dying seconds of a game (against us)

It was Mason Wood !

Least Caminiti took his full 30 secs 👍🤣 Even though we were 7 points down with 40 seconds to go I totally disagree with your criticism. He had to kick the goal. He took the time he needed. He kicked the goal- AND there were still 41 seconds on the clock at the next bounce . As we saw, still plenty ...

Just trying to get the heart rate down a bit so I can type. 5. Brad Hill. Gut running all day. 4. Rowan Marshall. Such a mobile follower . 3. Jack Steele. Never gives up. I think those three stood out. 2. Zane Cordy. Dougal will have to bide his time. 1. Marcus Windhager. Tagged well and found quite...

Didn’t Dr Zachary Smith play for Gold Coast and Geelong ?

The Dogs game also suits me, and I would like to be involved in the raffle, thanks .

Whenever a junior in any sport steps up to the senior level, unless they are extraordinarily self-assured there is likely an element of self-doubt as to whether they truly belong. I hope that, with his two excellent last-quarter efforts ( that will certainly have drawn praise from coaches and collea...

I had Cordy in my top 5 until Wilkie’s superb last quarter just squeezed him out. Cordy was good all day.

5. Josh Battle - superb all day

4. Jack Steele - ditto

3. Nasiah Wanganeen- Milera. Made one blue, but otherwise great .

2. Callum Wilkie - brilliant second half.

1. Brad Hill - ditto

Wonderful quarter by Hill; Jones and Owens lifted too. Battle and Steele remain the standout players today . NWM quality.

Outrageous comment . I suggest you withdraw it . Surely you cannot mean it.

There are some good commentators in the AFL; Luke Darcy and Jobe Watson are not amongst them.

Good grief - we look way off the pace early.

We all talk petracca v mccartin But the biggest travesty was Judd v ball That cost us a premiership I agree with Meher Baba’s eloquent views on this . Also, It really is fair only to look at the decision at the time and, back in 2001 , the selection of Ball over Judd was totally reasonable. Judd ha...

Sainter_Dad When I do my votes next time, I’ll start a Votes Discussion thread. I’ll provide a link at the bottom of my voting post. Cheers and sorry to mess with your algo bot No problems - I look forward to your discussions. And BTW - the suggestion to take it elsewhere literally came from when p...

So so frustrating and , in a macabre way, inevitable. We always seem to find a way. 5. Seb Ross. Superb early and still running hard at the end. 4. Rowan Marshall. Contested strongly against two ruckmen. 3. Jack Sinclair. Coming back into form. 2. Jack Steele. Big heart. 1. Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera. ...

I usually kick off the votes, but tonight I am interstate for work and will be stuck in a dinner. So if someone else could kick the thread off , that would be appreciated.

Best wishes to all attending the G tonight.

Go Saints !
