Yeah I must have blinked and missed his ability.
I don’t get it.


He's played less than one full season. Yeah, lets write him off.

**** off he played a great game on Grundy. Stanley has looked like he was about to get somewhere several times but kept pinging the calf. Stanley is pretty quick, has a penetrating kick and can take a grab. Your hate is out of place here.

We will see, he is very ordinary and soft as butter. He would struggle to get a game at most clubs

Not writing him off 9 games in, but the commentators act like he’s the next big thing every time he jumps under the football.
It’s not his fault, I just don’t understand the hype.

No ones writing him off.
Commentators just need to calm their farm with him.
Let him progress without making him out to be some superstar he clearly isn’t yet.
There are no stupid questions, just stupid people.

Been a fan of the rule changes from the AFL so far including the runners rule. The smart footballers rise to the top when the whips are cracking. It will be interesting to see how teams combat this. For me I’m a fan of any rule which makes players think on their own 2 feet and increases the chances of more 1 on 1 footy.

Some of the coaches and players attempts to bully the AFL in to getting their own way this week before the matches kicked off was laughable.
Can you bring a man to his feet when defeat is on repeat?

Why are the Power wearing this shit? Their white guernsey looked great and was a better contrast.
Whoever made th e decision to do so needs to be sacked immediately.

Melbourne dont look fit enough to run out the quarter.
Port could overrun them big time as this game goes on.

Port are average. Melbourne will be 10 goals up before they run out of legs.
Read my reply. It is directed at you because you have double standards
