Play him at CHB

Can we get the spelling of his name correct from the outset MACRAE I wouldn't hold my breath. People here can't even get Nick Riewoldt's spelling right. Minus: Jack Macrae is 30 and had climbed the mountain and is on his way down. Plus: He's 6ft 4inches and has clean hands - when he gets it. Can he...

He has also left for less money apparently... Is that true? In my view, a player who leaves for more money, or a longer term contract which guarantees a certain level of pay, is acting according to the "rules" of free agency. A player who rejects more money in order to stay at a club that...

The idea is to hit the tape with your body and not your hands. McCreery won.

We have just seen that the inability to successfully play the game at the AFL level is no barrier to being a successful coach.

1. Lachie Neale
2. Will Ashcroft
3. Harris Andrews
4. Cam Rayner
5. Callum Ah Chee

We saw this when they beat us twice. Much better than the Swans, who need their SCG.

Can't wait for the Free Agency period to come and go, then Battle will be irrelevant and we can all move on. How can a failed forward be worth $900k per season, the AFL are being reamed by player managers. Once multiple clubs get burnt by these expensive long term deals, maybe the some sensible bal...

It was interesting to realise that we are very lucky to even have one flag after watching the last quarter a few years ago. It’s going to take a momentous effort and a lot of luck to get another shot again. The chips are stacked against us! The captain led from the front in the last quarter. Today,...

Ken Dakin was the main commentator. Special comments from Doug Bigelow.

I can't recognise the voice of the other commentator. I read on You-tube that it's Dick Mason, but it doesn't sound like him. Could be Noel Bailey.

That's a certainty. Flags are a good bet too.

I'll tip Sydney - they make less turnover errors.

So, it's 2033 for a flag at the earliest.

Looks like he'll walk straight into a multiple premiership team. Their only weakness is on one half back flank - soon to be fixed.

Perhaps Ross should start reading a couple of chapters of the Bible each day.

The new Eagles coach - he's done nothing.

Swap him to another team.

It seams that Mason Wood is also out of contract. What's happening with him?

With 80 seconds left and score tied, Barry Breen grabbed the ball and kicked a point, in a game a long time ago.

Petracca says he wants to play in front of big crowds, so I guess cuts us out.

Funny game, I thought Carlton had at least 4 of the best 5 on the ground and that their effort at the ball was slightly greater than that ours, but in the end, our turnovers proved less costly. 3. Jack Sinclair. 2. Zak Jones. 2. Rowan Marshall 2. Darcy Wilson. 2. Mattaes Phillipou. 1. Hunter Clark. ...

This includes Byrnes and Clark

In 2007, Geelong had 16 players who could kick both sides. Unlike Clarke, Byrnes could not kick both sides when he started, but has clearly worked on it, so much so that his goal was on the left.

He knew that the tap on against Geelong was going to a Saints player. Yesterday, he didn't know who was behind him - so that issue was, grab it and run the risk of being caught on the turn, or tap the ball forward and hope as Saints player is there to contest. Easier to decide in hindsight.

Umpiring was OK. We got a few iffy ones in the first half as did they in the second half.

A fluke goal at the end won it for us. But I expect Port to beat Freo.

Very poor.

Mitch Owens is a one paced player and that pace is slow.
