Great game today. Those two pathetic fumbles on the wing in the last quarter broke St Kilda.

He was better than that when he played for us. They all turn into cabbages when they get to St Kilda.

He’s gone backwards. Put on weight and lost his speed. Shame he left Collingwood. AFL needs to do more to address mental health issues of players.

Absolutely. Mental health is becoming nearly as important as physical health IMHO, especially in this age of social media and continuous media commentary.

Loved it, very much "Deer in the headlights" stuff.

The skill required to drop that handball in the clear and turn attack into bewilderment might have been enough on its own to get the nod this week - but backing straight up by dragging the ball back in bounds just so he could be caught holding the ball was sublime. A work of comic genius.

Well there’s always Nicks to make players feel better about themselves.

Hell, why sink the boots in like that? He's a young guy who is playing AFL football, in itself a massive achievement. And he has returned from mental health issues, yet another massive achievement. He is also a former Pie. Just don't understand these snarling, mean comments.

I thought it was not a bad game by Marsh. One moment that stood out was when he outmarked Mihocek in defence. (Yeah, I know you don't think much of Mihocek.)

Im not really of the mindset to worry about Marsh either way. Something didn't sit right with how he ended up with us. He seemed to be played and his departure sudden even with whatever mental issues he faced.

That said, 12 touches and 50% DE.

Didn't seem his powerful best but might bet close to it now hes back in an AFL system.
