Tarrant chat is off topic for this thread but let's not forget he played a fair few games with a busted hand.
We all agreed they needed a Norm Smith medal by April. Plus the club needs to be premiers too before the bye weekend.We play a unique style, takes some time to get used to.
Keep that in mind for Hopper and Taranto.
Wasn’t from a very good lead Mate, it was an unbelievably soft free kick. I was livid at the time and remember it well. He just outpositioned the dud and used superior strength but got a free against

Saints' so-called spearhead.
Confident that our fitness, conditioning and training staff are more prudent in practice.
McKay and SOS kicked their two goals in the third.There was definitely a goal from a lead. Mckay in the 3rd quarter I think, they were kicking to the PRE which ever quarter it was in.
The injury record for both of the King boys is certainly a concern.Max is contracted until end of 2026, Ben up the Coast is contracted until the end of 2024.

Max Gawn was a slow burn, he was three months shy of 25 before he played a full season.
I've thought about a few talls and get the same results. Lynch was in 3rd year at GC, posterior ligament. Sam Day played about 7 games first year. Steven May until the 3rd season didn't get going. The King's just finished season 3.
And then I don't have to say anything about Richo 3rd season nine games in, freaking Sydney

If he didn't walk out , we would still be wondering when we win a flag.
