Have had a few big names go missing (as usual), but as long as we've got enough who step up we will be good.

Kent - ordinary!


The rest of Australia can wander mask-free, socialise, eat out, no curfews, no zoning, no police rings of steel, no illogical inconsistent rules. 
They can even WATCH LIVE FOOTY!

Say all you you want about max king. But his chasing is second rate, at best.

Still utterly baffling to me how many chest marks our team drops.

Why not just drop Kent for an extra midfielder?

If Daisy Pearce is not the most insightful commentator in the mix right now, i'll eat my hat.

I know you’re all potting Kent tonight, but geez he’s getting himself into all the right spots and with a little bit of luck could’ve had a really good night.

Agree right spots, wrong execution.

Nothing lucky about a AFL player taking a chest mark.

I don't know what luck has to do with a small forward not fumbling a chest mark but you're right if the Gods had smiled on him and he'd been able to catch a ball then he'd be having a better night.

That whole transition to Green there came from Clark being five meters too deep.

I'd say skill has had more to do with it than luck

Butler's goal - a class above the rest.
