Also, we're clearly better with English in the ruck.

Fucking hell I've got some adrenaline. Jittery just holding the phone.

This is really see-sawing with the momentum. We've shown that if we up our pressure we can get on top of them. But they're right there as well.

Hopefully Naughty just lights it up for a 15 mins or so

But you see it in real time?

Why do you reckon the umpires don't call it? It's perplexing

I have committed to only coming in here during the breaks. For that exact reason.

Well fuck it, he's in now so I'm getting behind him. Hope he has a breakout

I'll take both

Libba in the forward pocket isn't far off.

I'll say this about Toby. He did a better job than Tracc in the Cashies ad.

I think Melbourne are favourites regardless of fixturing. They've been the best side all year, have a midfield that feasts on contested footy, and can shutout any side in the comp.

I suppose multicultural maybe?

The force isn't huge, but he's well and truly into him. It's not just glancing shoulders, Stevic's shoulder is almost in the middle of Greene's chest. Clearly very deliberate in that case.

Not sure. Schache's biggest problem across his whole career has been shirking the contest. Doesn't really scream "finals player".

Plus, wouldn't mind JJ's pressure in the wet. Gotta keep it trapped forward.

Fucking hell.

Gardner in - good news.

Schache in and up forward - huh?

But who will stand in no man's land now that Cordy is out?

We were playing much better with Gardner in the side earlier in the year.

Who'd have thought that would be something we'd be saying.

Tucker only cares about this because hating the tech industry is part of the right wing culture war.

But he happens to be correct anyway.

I reckon Melbourne's song is a cracker. But it's hard to imagine the players belting it out in the sheds.

Except the other angle very clearly looked like a shoulder check. The fact that a subsequent video comes out doesn't mean that people were "disregarding the facts" beforehand.

And this angle still looks bad...

Ok so from viewing this...still makes contact

Yeah I dunno who you've got waiting in the wings, but whenever I've watched Brisbane this year, Birchall hasn't brought much to the side.

This would hurt

Gee Adams is average with ball in hand. Huge weakness in his game.

Was Oliver. Still on.

He truly is the barometer
