Zero other options besides those two

Motlop Owies Durdin Silvagni Fisher and the like have no goal sense.

Said this before, unfortunately the instinct gets coached out of them at the top tier, the AFL is a different beast but Durdin had plenty of goal smarts at SANFL level.

I like how Melbourne didn’t sacrifice their structure even though McKay was getting off the chain to an extent and clunking them.

May on Curnow, Lever the floater. 3rd best on McKay

Basically saying we don’t care how much of it get we know you are going to miss at least half.
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

Do you think Port will ask to wear the prison bars in the gf?

Finlayson is going to kick a dozen today and Port should win by 150 if they can be bothered. Only think stopping them will be if they put the cue in the rack

Geezus, just saw the score.
Never thought I'd say I'm lucky to be in Paramatta where no AFL is shown! :lol:

But of a shame though as there used to be some blockbusters between these clubs, one night game between these two was the only time I could hear the crowd at my Prospect home.

Where is the damn review anyway?

The Review:

Anything less than a Premiership from here is a failure.

Biggest certainty since Mods strolled into Joplins in ‘93.
