Who won?

I gave up reading half way through
It’s too over the top

It’s genuinely like they get a 16yo fan on work experience to write these fluff pieces

Too true Damo but the genuinely positive sign is that the younger players are starting to step up and take over from the senior players. Armstrong, Hotton, Lalor, Alger, Hayes-Brown, Lefau all had really good games which is a positive. It might not win us more games this years but it’s a great platform to springboard back into the finals over the next few years

I agree
But do think there is plenty of fluff in there to generate excitement and therefore boost membership sales. Will be good to see how it goes in a real hitout against essendon.

Looks like Broady got through unscathed  .

Good to have some footy back. Both sides took it seriously. Decent game. Victoria's midfield line-up was crazy. Too much class in the end.

Lachie Ash played well but not sure how Daicos wasn't BOG for the Vics.

Bakes wearing #48 was a call back to his early days as a Tiger.

Bolton was one of WAs best, but he still misses sitters just as he did with us.

Naughton and Lobb showed why the Dogs fall short each year. One goes missing aside from a rare cameo while the other is a liability.

To me there is a similarity to Harry and JR. They both have as probably their best assets forward craft and in particular forward smarts.
Harry is a better athlete imo.

Watch the interview with Luke Hodge on Front Bar. I actually cannot believe people don’t see the value in experienced players teaching young kids on field. So much happens in a game. It cannot be completely taught from a bench or a coaches box.

Thats all good and well. But we do have other experienced options to mentor the kiddies.
Playing all of those mature mids together actually hurts us because of the type they are.

We had the worst midfield in the comp last year and it had nothing to do with our kids.
