I would have loved for him to kick a few. But 11 goal kickers across the board is just as pleasing

Hasnt been a home/away team this dominant since Essendon in 2000? Can't lose it from here surely...

In 2008 Geelong went 21-1 in season proper finishing 4 games and 30% clear on top, won their first two finals by 9 goals and 5 goals.

After 14 games in 2009 StK were 14-0 with a percentage of 170. (admittedly Geelong was only a win behind)

We all know how that ended.

yeah we can... Lid firmly on... Just takes one bad day... And our worst days have come on the last Saturday in September. And that's if we make it

Gideon Haigh has ripped Gil McLachlan for taking on the TabCorp CEO role.

Does he have a point?

Who is closer to their next flag out of North Melbourne, Adelaide or Port??

I would say North Melbourne would be clearly. Better list of young players and better coach, the other two lists are horrific and will have new coaches within 12 months.

Several posts on the North Melbourne page taking the pi55 by Port and Crows supporters may comeback to bite them in the future

Ridiculous - North are miles off. Can understand North fans getting excited after the last few weeks considering where they have been at, but reactions are starting to get out of control.

They've fallen over the line against West Coast who are still terrible & no Harley that day, played a half against Collingwood that was great but the Pies were about to go into the bye & were absolutely depleted. I don't buy into the Melbourne game on the weekend, reckon the Tigers would beat Melbourne at the moment.

They have some decent kids as you would expect but while blokes like Toby Pink are still getting games, they are miles off

Players like Toby Pink etc will be gone in next 12-24 months, they will continue to improve and then top up with decent players like he did with Hawthorn. Might take 5-6 years but Port and Crows not started their rebuilds yet so will be left behind the Kangas!

Would love to know what rebuild Port are going to have to do in the next few years. Oldest starting mid is 24 atm. Besides our depth & a couple other spots, I don't have an issue with our list profile. The core of the list is fine & is no where near needing a rebuild

Is that you Ken?

Is that you Ken?

He's too busy blaming the players

Who is closer to their next flag....

Just about the worst question asked in AFL circles.

See my comment above.

In 5 years Davies-Uniake is 31 and one of their key pillars in 2024 will be past it.

"Port and Crows not started their rebuilds"

Adelaide have, but butchered it.

Port, what?

They have to be held accountable too...

Port, what?

Sweet could not get game at his club
Soldo was behind Nank and not playing
Esava not playing at Cats
Zerk-Thatcher was getting mauled every week at Bombers.

Strategy was top up with average players who could not get a game with other clubs?

And who butchered it??

100% they have too, but it is quite clear where our issues are atm & whilst the players need to improve, they aren't our key issue

[Dutchy]

Using Harley Reid as why WCE lost to North is next level

Can tell on here who just buys into whatever the media says & doesn't do any research
