Autopsy Swans by 27 over GWS the 2nd quarter to be watched ad infinitum

I hope I am wrong but Corey looks like one of those players who cannot adjust to the pace of AFL.

He’s played, what, five games with a couple of those coming on as a Kate sub?

Maybe he won’t make it, but I wouldn’t be reaching that conclusion based on the evidence before us now. He possesses attributes that are translatable to senior footy, and he has massively improved his contest work and his kicking since he arrived at the club.

Kate sub

Is this a NEW avant-garde toastie?

Calling it here - Heeney not going to win Brownlow. Errol might.

Daicos will if Pies come top 4. Warner and Gulden will steal too many off Heeney to win

Made some GIFs. Wish I'd done them for others rather than the wet weather one but alas. Maybe down the road I'll go back and find some of the best bits from other various games.

I'll begin with Gulden's pick-up and perfectly weighted (and curved) kick to Warner.

Speaking of perfect kicks, once in a while Jake Lloyd gets the ball about 45-50m out, has a shot at goal, and it's always just the most beautiful kick you will ever see. Goal umpires simply don't need to move a muscle for his kicks.

BEEP...BEEP...BEEP... Rowbottom coming through!

(I know those two guys live together. Maybe they left a lasagna in the oven and were in a hurry to get the game finished and get home.)

Death, taxes, and Dane Rampe doing something completely batshit and inadvisable and it somehow being effective.

And while we're on unorthodox plays, McLean always makes me chuckle. He's this big, awkward, lumbering bloke, then every now and then he's like, "And for my next trick..."

Just a great bit of hardness and repeat effort from Gulden.

And one can't discuss effort without mentioning Rowbottom. The King! deserves the credit for pointing this out, but Rowbottom's effort to put the jets on and close the space here is mighty.

Do you know how long I have wanted to see handball chains out of the centre like this? DO YOU?

And finally... I'm not crying. YOU'RE CRYING!

(Mills is giving Obi Wan Kenobi vibes there)

Reckon the King might have watched the clip on First Crack.

The show on a Sunday night that aired that clip shortly before you posted it in here?

Not that I am on the stand, but no, never seen that show in my life , it's on the afl app in the highlights.

Not that it matters , I didn't instruct him to run and get the ball or have an involvement in it.

Yeah no need to get so defensive lol, it was semi tongue in cheek. That clip has been played on a few shows so was just funny caesar saying you discovered it.

Always a safe assumption.
