Round 18: the 3 putt triple bogey games.

This is an unmitigated disaster.

The opportunity we had, with Freo going down, has been completely pissed against the wall.

If they aren't ready for the pressure now, when the *smile* will they be? The time IS now.

Top two looks shaky now and a golden opportunity has gone begging to consolidate.

They aren't winning *smile* this year.

Dominant is an understatement. The 10 finals we won in 2017, 2019 & 2020 averaged a winning margin of over 6 goals per game. Last year Pies won their first finals by a combined 12 points.

Yeh, we were dominant. The Port semi win the closest of the finals, and that was away from home and against the odds.

I spoke to a Pies supporter who says without Dusty we were nothing. Opposition supporters seriously underrate so many of those Tiger heroes. Cotchin/Prestia/Reiwoldt/Rance/Edwards/Lambert (I think I many still underrate him, what a player)/Astbury/Grimes/Vlastuin....what a side.

The AFL basically changed the rules to stop us.

Any of those flag sides would wipe the floor with any of the current challengers, the Swans would put up a fight but simply do not have the forward line to have a real show of beating us.

The beauty is opposition fans can say whatever they want, the history books don't lie.

Darcy's going to be an absolute gun. What to give for some decent father/sons.

Yep, in what parallel AFL world does a dominant team winning 3 premierships rely on just one player despite the brilliance of Dusty?

The Richmond of 2017-20 would wipe the floor with these bog average teams. Hawthorn before us as well.

Mediocrity reigns now.

It was clearly out on the full in real time and the replay proved it. Both umpires standing right near it and got it wrong.

Yeah they’re as good as ever aren’t they Dillon? What a joke.

The AFL will sign this off as being the correct call.

Mitchell makes changes
He moved Hardwick back and he put Scilly to Full Forward and the game changed..
I haven't see Yze do that.
Voss is still an ordinary coach. Has no plan B and if Curnow doesn't play well, they are lost

Geez I wouldn't give up yet BB. better to have a few losses now than later

It's not the losing, it's how they're losing. It's not conducive to winning a flag. They may win a final or two but anything further, forget it.
