Excellent first up win today just imagine how big it could've been if we kicked better in front of goals. I wouldn't have picked us so nice to get up convincingly loved the workrate just never let up.

More history for the AFC, first club ever to have both it's AFL & AFLW teams win in the same weekend :)

Fair call, and some food for thought. Modern forwardlines seem to be getting smaller and quicker

look at the last few games we've played when either of JJ or Tex were out of the side. We tend to win them.

Hard not to like what we saw yesterday. Have to admit I was worried at quarter time, we certainty didn’t start well with too many unforced skill errors and the work rate wasn’t quite there! Reckon the extra small helped in the heat.

If we kicked straight in the 2nd quarter it was game over at half time. Happy we ran the game out well in that extreme heat, the players were spent at the end of quarters!

Lairdy looks like he has gone to another level and the run and carry of our smalls was something special. Serious games from Laird/Milera/Cameron/Atkins/Knight!

I know Mackay gets a baking from supporters but after watching the replay his skill level yesterday was nothing sort of brilliant, played some game on Tom Scully!

Lever and Tex back this week against the Hawks. Hopefully McGovern recovers in time but with a 6 day turn around he might struggle.

Has Rucci now declared us the undisputed flag favourites now?

Quality LOL:

Jake Kelly of the Crows (son of ex Collingwood player and current player manager Craig) **** let Stevie J know on Sunday..

Stevie J was giving out trash talk and Kelly, who's dad manages Johnson replies with "don't talk to me like that, Stevie... you've been paying for my business class trips to Europe for six years."

Apparently Johnson was pretty impressed with the sledge.

Looks like there will be only the one change with Tex coming in, trained well with the main group today. For who not sure?
Lever and co all trained with the SANFL group.
