Put N Jones, Bail, ANB, Mitchie, Harmes and Brayshaw (he looks knackered) in the Hawks team and I bet they will drop off a heap - reality!!!!List wise we are a mile behind the bulldogs at the moment. Over the last few years they have scored big time with the draft and father/son. Our guys are young and hopefully will develop ok. The work Macca did at the bulldogs is underrated and hopefully he can help develop the kids to play at a high level.

Probably should make a play for FA Stanton to shore up the midfield and give the young mids a bit more time to develop - will also allow us to use our 1st rounder in the draft.

Getting hold of an experienced mid was really highlighted yesterday.

sure mcdonald had high possessions but if he had half as many it would mean the ball only went into their forward fifty half as many times,it starts in the center

Don't do it man, life's too short.

My TV must have voice command, It switched to a channel showing lewd acts. The more I shouted the the more lewd it became. I think it has spent the day fornicating with the Foxtel iQ

Sure, voice command. Is that the excuse you told the missus when she caught you doing a BBO.

Garlett comment if true very uncharacteristic. Jeffy has put immense pressure on defenders with his chasing, pace and tackling all season. A lot disagree with you over Watts. He played very well.

Garlett returned to old habits at Carlton. He looked defeated and I don't feel like he wanted to be there. Like many others.

Watts' game was solid, not bad, not good. Colossal brain fades leading directly to goals for them should be past him now. He is better than that. "Just another game".

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
