I was wondering about those words ('deadeye d*ck') appearing in the  TMac section, and it leads me to ask: Just what is a 'deadeye duck'? Is it something out of the NZ All Blacks' Thesaurus that crept into our game? Perhaps it is a tackling procedure? ...I know what happens when they try to '...fix the tap with a new wusher...' - and that turns out all wrong, as well.

Ha ha probably dates back to Dick Turpin notorious highwayman who was probably a crack shot, it was a very common term during my school days in the country whether throwing down a wicket, kicking difficult goals or shooting a rabbit.!!!

To me he is looking very much like one of the key characters from the “Viking Series”, personally I like that Clayton has the confidence to pull it off.!!!!

Thanks Deespicable for your great report a lot to like about the team and loving that Grundy, Schache and Hunter are fitting in so well, really hoping that JJ, Howes, Laurie and Taj get a good run at it next year. !!!

Or, maybe, he doesn't have a mirror!

So for our Kiwi compatriots it's Tom Duck and Megan?

A fit and firing T Mac and Lever will have a huge difference to our team. Marking was a major issues in 2022. Ball retention and rebound and transitioning fwd

Great report I'm sold on van Rooyen for round 1 after that report.

Best 22

B: Lever, May, Rivers

HB: Salem, Petty, Bowey

C: Hunter, Petracca, Langdon

HF: Neal-Bullen, van Rooyen, Pickett

F: Gawn, McDonald, Fritsch

FOLL: Grundy, Oliver, Brayshaw

IC: Viney, Harmes, Sparrow, Spargo

SUB: Melksham

Gawn will go back to his predominant 2018 role and play a kick behind the play, I expect increased forward pressure and forcing opposition to kick long  down the line or to take the game on with handball or risky kicks into the corridor. I expect Grundy to play forward of centre

I remember as a young buck around 12 years of age, I was out on my uncle's farm in Western Victoria near Hamilton. We were going spotlighting, and he'd invited his lead shearer to come out with us in the ute. Well, we got a bagful! Your comment on '...shooting a rabbit...' triggered one of life's great mysteries for me: There, in the distance, was a small little rabbit on its own ... about 200m away ... and the shearer lined him up in his sights on his .22 ... and just before firing at such a large target, uttered to us all ... 'I am not going to kill this poor little thing (200 metres away) ... I'm just going to stop him having babies!'

That statement took me about six years to understand, such was my general ignorance at that age. Rather funny.

Well I'm not so sure now I look through those images again - look at pick 40 Jefferson has black socks and looks a lot paler and less hair on his legs - He could have changed socks but even so looks paler than the guy reaching over Max in pic # 44

Quite the mystery

I think it could be Kye Turner.

Nice leap on him if it is...

Can you please do one or all of the following:

  • Give the doll pictured below to Clary at a training session
  • Post the picture to his insta account
  • Use the picture as your avatar (perhaps photo shopping Clarry's face on)

Image result for my little pony

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
