Bit concerned about the Essendon game in a few weeks TBH. We've towelled them up in our past few encounters but they look to be a much slicker outfit this year. Should still bag the four points if we bring our A-game though.

Playing teams directly above us is exactly what we want to do though. And at some stage we need to see if we can handle decent, in form sides. Sydney is a start but Essendon and Adelaide after we should know if we are "back" or not.
 
Collingwood are the only side I've watched this year that seem to be an improvement on any non-Geelong contenders of 2022. It remains a pretty weak field so if the Cats can get a run together they're still right in it.
Pies appears to me to be the only two beside syd that haven’t dropped their form so far this year

Collingwood were behind us for 3/4 quarters, and got completely wiped off the park against Brisbane. 14 point win against Richmond at the MCG was hardly inspiring either.

I still think its way too early for contender talk, I get a giggle out of the commentators talking up St Kilda and Melbourne as if what they are doing this year isn't the exact same thing they did last year. Rds 12 to 16 is where you really see who is a contender.

Too early on the Saints but they are definitely an improved side. See how the game goes tomorrow.

Well what I mean is no side seems obviously stronger than Sydney or Collingwood of 2022. Not that individual sides haven't improved their 2022 selves. If Saints beat a few good sides they could be in the conversation.

Oh sorry- my mistake. Yes, agreed - nobody is looking any better in that regard. Still early days.
 
How’s the rain in Adelaide? Good stuff.
My Essendon mate says the rain usually ****s Essendon because they are usually behind (lawl) and then have to catch up in shit conditions. Be fun to see what the excuse is if Essendon bottle the lead in the rain instead of letting teams extend them.

Haha- hard to see the dees catching up in this weather and the way they are playing- look a bit lazy/slow or something today.

When goals like that one from Langford skim through but still get a good bit of spin and luck, you know its not your day.

Even Perkins is now taking the piss. Hasn't scored a goal all year and snags that.
