Re: Gresham
Adelaide offered end of first round pick for doodee. Bodes well for our Gresham compo. At least it should. Who knows with this murky system.

Re: A lot to like about GWS.
Win this week and the giants will win the flag. I reckon it would be a travesty if their core group of superstars didn't achieve the ultimate. Makes sense if they went all the way.
Form team at the moment. Would back them to beat Brizzy at the G.

Re: Unpopular opinion
Dirty day for Cal but he still kept his direct opponent relatively quiet. Pre-game, the media was doing what they usually do and follow each other into an easy narrative. This time Toby was gonna beat us, when in reality the difference between us winning and losing was always gonna be the midfield. ...

Re: Mason Wood
Absolutely unique situation at the Saints. Our top four best and fairest players will all be absolute bargain basement recruits. Sinclair, Marshall, Wilkie, Wood. If only we could've matched this group with better drafting a few years ago. These diamonds are how you win premierships. Think of Richm...

Re: The match
They are not kids They are AFL footballers Who are getting games ahead of 150 game players Right, so 150 average games guarantees you a finals spot? Sounds like the same mediocre strategy for the last decade. How about you have a look at Port Adelaide and ask yourself how they're going after they t...

Re: The rise of Cooper Sharman
He did quite well, but he continues to look really slow: particularly when the opposition has the ball. Today, the only serious impediment to GWS running the ball out was Butler, with King second best. Higgins, Gresham, Caminiti and Shrman might just as well not have been there. Seriously, mate. Wh...

Re: Post-match analysis
One further point: what exactly was the strategy with Phillipou? What was his position? Wouldn't it have been much better for a young player's development to give him a specific position to play rather than a sort of general roving role? He seemed to get totally lost today.

Re: The match
Fix up our entries and we'll challenge everyone. Plenty of character in the way we fought it out. Heaps to look forward to. Need to recruit mids, mids, mids. Liam Henry will definitely help.
And shout out to Vortex, you absolute nuffie. Sharman one of our best. Will play 200 games for us.

Re: The match
Gotta get up in their faces in our forward half. Did that in the second half of that quarter. This mob offers so many opportunities with how hard they push forward from the back half. Can't keep sagging back. Gotta push up.

Absolutely gutted for Skunk. Terrible news.
That said, great opportunity for us. Missing personal hasn't been a problem all year. Ross won't bat an eyelid. Bring it on.

Re: Who will win and why Gws vs SAINTS
The little I heard in media (a stats analyst) talking on SEN breakfast, said that 65% of the game is won in ‘transition ’ phase of game play. (Whatever that is, I know it is not stoppages) And that GWS has been the best ‘in transition ’ team for the last six weeks of the season. So I guess we have ...

Re: Dougle on the market article
I reckon Cordy is more to Ross's liking because he's more willing to play the percentages than Doug. Zaine isn't particularly attacking, which doesn't really faze Ross, given his loyalty to Zac Dawson and the like. My hope is that Van Es can develop into something substantial. Intercepting key backs...

Re: Hayes v sharman
Love Coops but Hayes is more of a finals prospect at this stage of their careers. Bigger body and can give Roma a chop out rather than throwing poor old Mitch Owens into the ruck. Jack got better as the game went on. Will be better for the run.

Here's my conspiracy theory / 4D chess moment of the week. We knew in round 6 we had a winner of a gameplan. We had significant media attention and other clubs were trying to dissect our game. We changed it up to throw them off the scent, sold it as "trying new things" lost a few winnable...
