Dunstall, N Riewoldt, Howard and Montagna (who is easily the weakest link). Dunstall is the best ex-footballer on TV by far, imo.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

No coincidence that the commentary on the other game was the worst possible combination Fox can put out.

Hated Riewoldt as a player (against us), but really like him as a special comments guy. Not afraid to tell it as it is…same with on the couch…has a lot to offer.

I'm actually happy for them to combine Ed, Dwayne, Dermot and Healy at every opportunity so they don't pollute other games (Bulldogs games withstanding). Keep Dunstall, Riewoldt, Huddo etc for other games.

Ed is a dickhead, trying to make everything sound exciting, but big fail, Derm and Healy are boring. Dwayne is a lot better than he use to be, but not a great voice.

Not in game but Sam Docherty is to undergo chemotherapy after a secondary occurrence of testicular cancer found after a routine check-up. An issue much more important than football.

BT really loves barracking for Melbourne.
Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

This game is making angry. Those smug demons will be top of the ladder because of our failures.

I think you have to award it to the home team.

Re: AFL Game Day R21 2021
Honestly, given my distaste for WCE and the chance that the finals are going to be in WA, I'm happy for WCE to lose. Losing top 2 spot would be a bummer but on the plus side, ever since the bye round before the finals came in, out of the 10 teams to win a qualifying final in week one and get the bye before the prelim, only 4 of them have made the GF, so it's clearly no longer a big advantage as it had been. (In the previous 5 years, it was 9/10 that made GF).

It's a good point, the Tigers never finished on top in their recent premiership years.
