@NickBrownie_2 When we had the overlap and he bombed it forward instead of taking the 1st option handball in the last minute vs Brisbane last year. Didn’t play a game at the Swans but they rolled Rawlings over a barrel as usual

At what point does JK’s supposed ‘elite’ pressure defensively become not worth it considering his offensive limitations. A liability with ball in hand. Has to be better.

Fair to say they'll be talking about this dismissal after stumps tonight. Stoneyford's Ben Grinter given out for obstructing the field against Birregurra in the Colac-South West grand final this afternoon.

@PaulAmy375 Because of it being a final i can see why the appeal is made and how hard it is to then overturn it. Depends on the rivalry and respect in previous games between the teams. Without that history context. Its out. @@Dont touch it with your sweaty gloves.@@

@BenHilly94 @aliciaisabelx I think we stick with Blamires best 23 now Ben. McKercher, Hardeman and Blamires play a modern rebounding game and all can kick. LMac off the bench. Daniel will miss if no injuries and Archer will only be depth when back given he’s a bit too one dimensional

@aliciaisabelx Probably throw Blamires in there too. Not that I want him dropped but he has only been on the list for two weeks

Interesting watch TW to see if we make any changes. Ideally we’d have both Riley &George in our best 23 however everyone played their role&would be stiff to miss. Previously thought Lmac/Daniel out for Riley but not sure after last weeks performance. I think keep George for Rd 3.

@aliciaisabelx Agree. Not sure changes are absolutely necessary this week. But Duursma/Konstanty out for Wardlaw/Spargo (some swapping of positional magnets) and Daniel/LMac for Hardeman are the most under the pump going forward. But it’s certainly good to have some competition for spots

@aidancellini4 @zerohanger This is a great sign for us! Banch best on ground last weekend in the VFL, CCJ and Junior all pushing for selection as well. Finally some pressure for spots.

A squeeze at North Melbourne ahead of Round 2 after a stirring win over Port Adelaide. George Wardlaw (hamstring), Charlie Spargo (concussion) and Riley Hardeman (ankle) are all available for selection. All 3 are primed for a trip west to face the Eagles. @zerohanger

@JFlentjar @magicmoments000 O’Sullivan is a bolted on starting mid. Duursma to the VFL, Powell to half forward, George to the bench. Spargo for Konstanty. Hardeman might have to start in the ressies but Daniel and LMac would be under the pump there once he’s up and running

@Christoff343895 @jcorrigangolf The lamest sports fans on Twitter are those whose response consists of “how many games did you play?” Apparently Twitter opinions should only consist of professional sports people who have played at the highest level 😆

@SridipP @WG_RumblePants No, everyone outside India agrees with them. The video of Jay Shah celebrating is embarrassing. The focus should be on your champion team who actually won the tournament

@gauravndesai @Final_Word_Pod @collinsadam This is a good comment. India are a great team but it is bizarre for us outsiders not aware of workings of Indian politics to understand his shamelessness in the international arena. Hopefully he does some good in world cricket before stepping away to his own long term agenda

@Final_Word_Pod @collinsadam He is simply using these opportunities to build his popularity & reputation to help him step into political arena. He does not care about what people outside of India think about his behavior so please don’t waste your breath on him. Instead use him to get some things done.

@MrAlewood @aliciaisabelx Alicia can feel however she wants. We’ve had 20 wins in 6 years. How about we just stop accepting mediocrity, set higher standards and win more games

@WisdenCricket Surely the purest knock would be in a winning cause? You would see your team over the line for a win or at least play a major part in the victory. The day before Finn Allen effectively ended the match after the power play

@stickers_bown @BenHilly94 @RileyBev @AFLcomau Yes it hasn’t been great but there are examples. Will Phillips over Logan McDonald the obvious one. 2023 draft taking Duursma over Dan Curtain or Conor O’Sullivan Or not trying to top up with a ready made player like Derksen/Aleer There’s been list management mistakes for sure

@BenHilly94 @RileyBev @AFLcomau What top end key position talent has been available? The compromised draft has fucked north. The best players have never been available.

@aliciaisabelx The Wiz at hawks couldn’t kick straight his first year but it clicked over time, I feel like it’ll happen with JK but there are others knocking on the door for his spot, he’s gotta return the support with goals quickly or he’ll be on the out, does everything else but finish

I think Banch deserves a go. JK tries hard but his execution just isn’t there.

@spookydog120 @corza89_ Yes but not sighted first half and no scoreboard impact. Unfortunately top 10 draft picks get judged harder and he’s not showing enough as yet. No guarantee to be in the round 1 team

Good lord that was rough. We are in bad shape and need to get it together fairly quickly. There’s some very winnable games early on and we really can’t afford to be dropping them. Let’s see what the season brings, not getting my hopes up with what we’ve seen. #Kangas

@corza89_ Someone like Derksen at Carlton would have been worth picking up in the rookie draft or at least giving an SSP trial to in November

Like Blamires, he’ll be even better on a faster deck at marvel. Trembath is in the best forward mix, they are clowns if they don’t pick him. Dovaston is lively. The defence really worries me, but not much we can do about that now. #Kangas
