    Started to come good about Round 13/14 in the hub last season.

    Realized  he could no longer Just one pace medium and do a funky 25m kick yo be valuable to the team.

    Started impacting game with pace and urgency plus 45/50m lucks That still  found teammates!!!

    Saw it with my own eyes vs GWS when he starred at the Gabba with Langers and Spargo and Rivers on the Members side of the ground  getting us up by 4 pts. In that epic game.

    Ever since has been  A standard and I prefuctedvtjis in my posts pre season as one of our improvements along with Spargsy and Tommo down back.

    Also said that Jacko Kossie and Riv had huge upside in their second year!

    Some had criticised this view but I stood firm on our improvement Which I think has even surpassed my expectations!

    Lets hope it's a permanent standard as we all love the stars shining each week plus the contract signingS of our Mostly A and a couple of B+ graders this season 

    Long may it live well beyond 2021!!!

    I might be in the minority here but I feel like Salem hasn't improved greatly this year - I just feel like he has a better team around him so what he does comes off more / gets noticed.

    I feel like Salem has been doing what he is doing now for years and has been criminally underrated.

    The only thing that would make this AA22 even better would be to have no pies players and all of Treloar, Stephenson and Phillips in the team

    No you have said this before and  I don't buy one word if it.

    Go to his stats and also see a replay or two and his urgency and impact on our defence and attacking options either ball in hand.

    According to Gerard Healy, Kozzie is the no. 1 , and the no. 2 and no. 3 small forwards have the same name - Daylight!

    Speaking of Kossi, can't believe that he hasn't been nominated for Goal of the Year for his 4 or 5 touch effort against the Roos. Much better than the humdrum 3 they chose

    If TMac can maintain his form then he'll have to be in contention. Other than 1 poor outing (against the Giants i think it was) he's been playing to a very high level all year. It would be some effort if he managed to get selected.

    Disagree. The defensive side of his game has improved greatly. In previous years he was a liability defensively. This year he’s been much better in one on one contests. He’s now able to stop air balls coming in, and then mop up all by himself. It’s a thing of beauty to see his new confidence turning his own defending into attack. In previous years he needed to be fed the ball. Not anymore, and it shows in his stats. Offensively, he’s moving the ball quicker and taking riskier longer kicking options. This is probably the result of playing in a better team and options to kick to though. 

    He’s having an awesome season. I’ve been critical of him in the past, as I though he was capable of more for a player his age, and he’s now producing what we’d all hoped for. He should be All Australian this year. Gun.

    Salem picks himself. Class above this year. Had some $ on him for the Brownlow. Crazily priced at 151-1.

    May very stiff. Killed Buddy, killed Hawkins until Hawkins nearly killed him. Kozzie will be there year end.

    What are the green colours?

    Best coach at the moment is...???

    Goodwin. Nice. 

    how about all those small fwds huh? No one below 6 foot. Insulting to the skill and persistence needed to be a good small fwd. a completely essential role in the AFL. 

    where is KOZZI!!?

    thats right, still no happy 

    It is for this reason I don't care about All Australian teams. It should be a team but instead it is about fitting individuals into 22 spots with little consideration of the role of each position.

    How good would it be if blokes like Charlie Spargo with 6 possessions, but play their role to perfection, made the rolling AA team in a given week because they were the best small forward position player, not because they kick 5 goals or are a star mid that rests forward.

    SEN took Salem out of their team this week lol.   Are they on drugs?

    And how can our historic backline only have one defender?  May, Salem and Lever should all be in

    The decision is even stranger when you see why. They wanted another "key defender" (Harris Andrews) even though the team already had Weitering, Lever and Aliir.

    You're quite right, of course. I learned years ago to ignore Mark Robinson (along with many others). I now must remember to do the same with SEN.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
