Tim, I agree re Comben. Took them a while but hopefully he holds a spot down and gives North more structure to build on.
Maybe they might get something from Sellers if they are prepared to play him. Another big kid.
Six Points: Why Dogs' disaster isn't all Bevo's fault, Eagles on their way, and 2024's biggest beat-up
With Pittonett in the ruck Macca would it be a bit risky to play DeKoning at CHB in lieu of McGovern.??
I know Young is there but it just appealed to me.
Also , have to get more from smalls up fwd. Motlop and Martin are sorely missed

what happens there Ben…does he just pull his socks up 😂
UPDATED: Dogs place Liberatore in concussion protocols after scary collapse, but maintain no symptoms
PD from an outsider’s point of view I have to say I like Buku and O’Donnell
What I didn’t like was Treloar’s soft efforts
Or a couple of VFL types ..you may have mentioned one
And a truly off night for English. Old Goldy showed him the way on the night
The dogs certainly disappoint me as I have a soft spot for them
I also like Don Freo’s comments about the Bont being CHB and delivering offensively…could extend his career ….if nothing else

Dem, your post yesterday about Dogs stuck in mediocrity could not have been more prophetic
They do their best to prove your point of view

Have to agree with you Doc. I’m hopeful that he gets a series of tests to determine if it’s a result of previous knocks or internal problems or serious dehydration ..which should not be the case
won’t speculate anymore but elite athletes just don’t keel over unless there is an underlying problem

I know it was yesterday Macca when you posted Carlton’s stats but I’m glad you jumped in there and sorta backed me up.
And Teams don’t always gel early …a round or three to stop puffing and run easier
But Blues have four wins and Walsh back…plus depth
And whereas the next few rounds look tough the form of a couple is nothing to get excited about.

A bit late getting back Don …Darcy not chosen after all. Need a run in the twos ?
Wines and P-Pepper add a bit more to the Port’s mids..looking strong
the game of the round… should give a good indicator on both sides

He is a great young footballer…but I’m probably biased as he has my given name 😂
AFL News: Players Association slams 'double standards' in Finlayson ban, Cats to weigh up Thomas lifeline
Port is one team that appreciates their home ground advantage and crowd support
I feel Freo will have to exploit Port’s defensive structure. Which I don’t think has improved that much
As you suggest the on ball battle could be the decider

KTK ..I’d politely disagree with you that Carlton are overrated.
If you have the two Coleman medalists of recent times , a Brownlow medalist on ball with one not far behind (Walsh) when on the park and a sound defensive UNIT that is good in the air and quick on rebound there is a lot to like about them
And mostly they have reserve depth
But OMHO

One thing I am having a head scratch over Barb is why are players still letting themselves get suspended each week for head high knocks. All have been deliberate and deserve a penalty
But , why? We get overheated about a slur ..correctly so.. and demand a penalty for the slur but we don’t read about players being sent to any counselling and training for their aggression.
Comes back to the clubs of course to do something.
But how that St Kilda player could injure his North opponent the way he did is beyond me.
Shades of the ’70’s

Good to see you back Barb
Been a while

It’s a bit weird 13th. I’m sure two people know
But even one of the Freo boys gave Clarke a ‘ tap’ on the arm as if remonstrating with Clarke to be quiet.
But it’s done and I guess I’ll leave it there
cheers

RT that’s what people are missing. Why is he staring/glaring at the umpire and obviously saying something because Pierce and others are moving him away .
Obviously suggests something said that the umps are entitled to penalise in any grade of footy.
And it was also said Clarke had been chipping away at the umps beforehand
I’m only saying, from experience, don’t chip or swear at the umps

True, your Holiness
Also some grunt in the so called talented on ballers
How they must miss Cunnington
Six Points: Clutch kings do it again, footy's dirtiest player, and debunking 'Vic-centric' fixture myth
Is he a relative Peter of the infamous Byron Pickett ?
Now he was a footy thug.

Good point Tim about Comben. If North are so undermanned in defence and you have a 6’6″ strong boy why not build around him in the first place.
All they need now is another version of him at CHF

My thoughts Sven. The other thing to consider is that Clark was reportedly chipping the umpires throughout the match.
But Freo have a big game coming up and they need to focus on that and not what was lost
Mistaken identity? Docker at centre of dissent controversy claims he abused HIMSELF as AFL ticks off drama
Ironic..how could the press even go to Pell and why would he put himself in a position to give background information on the Freo player…beggars belief
Gobsmacked actually

Match of the round to me. I thought the Dogs were coming and looked liked they were literally running over the Cats. ..Perhaps the 5 day break was slowing the older warriors of the Cats
The way the Dogs played suggests they can be there amongst the top boys
Footy Fix: No, the umpires didn't gift Carlton the game - but Freo sure did
Agreed. I also think teams need that something different and special ..X factor…player
That’s why I think Bailey Smith’s absence has really hurt them.
Dare to run and carry because Dale and others seem to have lost it somewhat
