Ross is definitely A-grade with the skipping rope!

At least if we lose it would mean Harvey gets a coaching win, so not all bad.

I’m in a plane. The wifi is pretty good so I’ll give Kayo a try.

I may be added to the no fly list.

DeGoey and Elliott are the two I’m worried about, not sure who’s going to keep them quiet.

Just come over that Paddy Ryder returned to Perth on Friday then drove 400kms to his uncles funeral and returned home late last night.

Hopefully it doesnt affect Paddys game?

If Dunstan had that same Inside 50 Ross just did half this site would call for him to be dropped

f*** that. Harvey can win every other game. There’s no positives in losing to Collingwood.

Fast break off half back and as usual no forward structure to kick to because they’ve all moved down the ground 🤦‍♂️

We need to lift our pressure, the Pies are having too many uncontested possessions.

Long better be careful. He'll get 8 weeks if he bumps a player like that again. :)

Are our players taught not to lead because coaches are so afraid of turnovers at half back? I'm admittedly hamstrung by watching on TV but it just seems our players don't ever make strong, demanding leads.

Hill, Steele McKenzie and Higgins had good quarters.

How is Grundy allowed to basically tackle his ruck opponent throw them aside in every contest?

Good job not to give up a late goal. Keep this up and we’re looking good.

Our inside 50s and forward structure are trash as usual, I’d love to know what the actual plan is, getting there by sheer weight of numbers (and accuracy) at the moment.

Exactly WTF!!

And Dunstan showing last week was not a flash in the pan.
