I wouldn't be selling the farm to get Clarry. He lost favour with the Melbourne playing group due to his unprofessionalism and off-field antics. The chance of recidivism is high and given the exorbitant dollars being bandied about and a 6 year contract, the risk is simply not worth it.

Yep, there are very few quality KP defenders going round, and we have a young one that can also ruck. Speculation that he will be involved in any trade deals is ludicrous.

Tremendous opportunity squandered with a premiership there for the taking. Not sure why they persisted with Bews and Duncan at the backend of the season when they are essentially cooked. The contrast between Bews and Lawson was never more acute than in that preliminary final. Lawson exhibits...

Our third quarters have been a problem for a few years now. And sure enough it was groundhog day once again. Whatever is going on in the rooms at the main break, FFS change it up!

Champion Data had Neale and Bews as our worst. Apologists for non-contributors. How quaint.

Almost gifted a premiership, but alas lost at the selection table in selecting non-contributors such as Bews. Same old.

No surprises... when you select non-entities such as Bews you get what you deserve.

Ollie Henry missing from straight in front doesn't cut the mustard. A very flakey footballer.

Goal the result of Bews blunder... no surprises.

Not a great advertisment for the game. Poor skills and boring.

Too few for mine. Kolo and Bewsy are not AFL standard wrt disposal and are guaranteed to turn it over multiple times.

Tuohy has more versatility than Bews and the decision to drop him is frankly bewildering as he is the ideal sub. Bews was very poor against Port with Rioli running rings around him in the first half. It was no wonder Champion Data had him as our worst performer on the night. Charlie Cameron...

When Bews plays you more or less ensure a multitude of soft goals are gifted from his blunders. Bews out, Stewart in.

If the MRP were doing their job Harris Andrews wouldn't be playing this weekend. That sniping hit that ended Coniglio's night was appalling.

The consensus from the 69 replies is that Andrews had no eyes on the ball. Your one-eyed interpretation is of no surprise as he would be a big loss. If the MRP do their job, he gets suspended.

No, not at all... Brisbane don't win prelims. But sniping incidents are nasty, especially the ones that cause concussion.

It would seem Harris Andrews is in trouble for the elbow he applied to Coniglio's head that put him out of the game. At no time did he have eyes for the ball... the intent was clearly on making head high contact on Coniglio.

Not that I am aware of... apparently it was just the flu.

A complete spiflication... Port were torn apart. Hoping Stewy didnt reinjure that hamstring and out for the next 3 weeks.

Third quarters have generally been poor in 2024... can we turn it around. 🤞

Houston and Farrell have been their best two running defenders, both with penetrating and damaging kicks… we’ve got very lucky with those two out. Expecting SDK to be a late in. It’s going to be dry and warm with just a zephyr, it should be a belter with plenty of highlights. Quietly optimistic.

We leak easy goals and our contested work at stoppages isn’t great. Our recent form doesn’t instil much confidence but there is no stand out team this year so there is always hope. Must beat Port to have any real chance.

Another poor third quarter... the premiership one.

Not sure how they managed to orchestrate a 50 point turn after the main break. We've seen this type of second half capitulation before and it would seem there is a tendency for the coaches/players to exhibit a degree of hubris when things appear to be under control. After a great start to the...

How many times can we cough it up in the third quarter... too much bathing in our own bathwater at the long break. Groundhog day again.

Just quietly, I believe Humphries has hit more targets in this game alone than Bewsy has done in his entire career. :D

Those Sandgropers can be feral at times... they have no issue slagging off injured opposition players. https://thewest.com.au/sport/west-coast-eagles/footy-abuse-sparks-calls-for-patersons-crowd-controls-ng-ya-302560

Bews given the heave-ho for Duncan... our defensive ball movement given a big boost right there.

Kolo and Bews in defence is a surefire way to kill fluent ball movement and ramp up turnovers and soft goals. Not sure what the brains trust are thinking there but it's a strategy that will snuff out any hope of figuring in the finals.
