    Beat them by over 100pts with 4 injuries on the bench and playing only 16 men on the field for the last half whilst two were resting. 16 tired men beat 18, wow!

    I hate to say it, but it will potentially help our chances that Toby Greene did his hammy and Dawson Simpson his ankle.

    Gws have been a different team since Greene came back from injury. Definitely helps our chances that he’s done his hammy.

    If they keep their team on the park they’re definitely one that can challenge for the flag this year.

    They weren't icing greens legs so I would say precautionary. Dawson would be a big loss, and deludio is only selected on reputation so no loss.

    Good Friday game, enjoyable as a neutral.
    Getting caught a lot is Gazza. He looks to have slowed up appreciably.

    He adds to them, for sure, but Kelly's return has been what has made the most difference. They started looking like a good team again before Greene came back.

    We'd be a better team if Kelly was running around in our midfield

    Anyone else disgusted with the narrative developing around "poor Andrew Gaff" ? He's probably broken a teenager's jaw behind play, and the commentary is all about how upset and remorseful he is. Not how a teenager is in hospital. Nauseating. Only equalled by the behaviour of the WCE crowd.

    Sunday sure was different to Saturday. Suns over the last 2 weeks makes our loss all the more mystifying. I'm increasingly sure that game was more about bad attitude than personnel.

    Just saw the Gaff incident...he is in a world of trouble. Won't be surprised if he's gone for the season. Pretty dumb when your team is a good chance for finals.

    And he was one of the front runners for the Brownlow. I wonder if any potential suitor might think twice about paying him $1m plus a year. Young Brayshaw's jaw is broken, allegedly.

    What a weekend, the AFL were loving it up to last night, five games decided by four points or less, score reviews all ok (ha ha), all good in the AFL world then -

    Carlton 22 fit men capitulate to 18 fit men with sometimes only 16 on the field, Gold Coast are a shambles yet again then an act of thuggery in the west has a players mother distressed in the stands and him off to hospital for surgery.

    Just saw the incident, bigger wind up than Bugg, much more damage, 6 weeks minimum, should be more for an ugly act of thuggery regardless of Gaff's clean record. This is a very bad look, the AFL will rightly be concerned.
