Talk on the national game

Guess we'll find out if knocking off Hawthorn in Tassie says more about where the Hawks are at than the Lions. The other 2 wins were against Freo and Carlton so not a decent indication. Crows haven't looked good in back to back games this year so with the season on the line will be interesting to see the response.

I'd say the next 5 games are 50/50 to be honest, after this week all against potential finalists. Manage to win all 5 to still be in the finals race come Carlton in round 23 and will deserve to sneak into the 8. Once there who knows what can happen, only need to go back 2 years to see that.

Freo in Perth? The team that knocked off 4th placed Port on Sunday? The team that had won 5 on the trot I think.

Not really, have read rumours about a ‘spirit stick’ that he took offence to and that he then almost checked out of the footy club which is why he didn’t get picked when injuries were at there highest. All just rumours but they do make some sense


That camp is in the ‘no talk zone’ I reckon

Normally I'd agree but they're 13th and since round 5 they've beaten Adelaide and Port playing probably their worst games for the year, Carlton and St Kilda. Wouldn't say they are much of a guide.

The dude would be always of the mindset that he's only a fringe player, never in consideration for a grand final team, barely got games, and when did get a chance lately made a poor effort for whatever reason and probably read the social media ridicule and depression of it all boiling over

good luck to the kid, a release and a rest, then maybe train with another club, could get games elsewhere, aka be more useful than half the carlton list & hes an ex giant so we only recruit ex giants
