Bowie? Why?

I like Bowie and he kicks well. Spargo kicks well though not over 40m, and has been poor lately along with several of our small forwards.  
We have tons of pretty good back flankers who fit in with our defense.        It's far enough out from finals not to mess things up while we briefly see if Bowie might help our relatively poor forward line.

    JB is a great player. Just having a poor series with the gloves. On fire before he stuffed up his knee late last year on the golf course.

    Been a long time since I've seen an experienced keeper have this terrible a test series. The contrast between he and Alex Carey could hardly been more striking

    He is a terrible keeper, such poor form like I’ve never seen.

    Good batsman for sure. But a test level keeper ....... nowhere near it!

    Reasonable batsman, I reckon. But doesn't know when to stay in his crease. Most unusual for a keeper to get stumped!

    Bairstow... Bairstow... Nup; can't place him. But I reckon Tommo, or Smitho, or Hibbo will go to him.

    Dees by an innings and 25 points.

    I wouldn’t sit in that temporary stand at Old Trafford if my life depended on it. Especially right up the top. It looks like a collapse waiting to happen. There’s no protection overhead, nor at the sides. It makes level 4 nosebleeds at the ‘G look inviting.

    Did we ever do anything good in your view though?

    Yes Plenty Old but playing injured players is something I cannot agree with/ What about you?

    There was simply no reason not to play Tommo in my view and there has been nothing explained

    Injury management was a problem last season it is reasonable in my view to ask the question

    I wish there was more footage of it, looked like something out of Tad Lasso.

    I haven't seen Ted Lasso but taking a punt for potential good social veneer.

    Look, I love Bowie. He’s been an inarguable legend and made a lot of his supporters very happy over the years. But he is very prone to massive dips in form. In fact it’s fair to say that the thirty years between “Absolute Beginners” and “Blackstar” were, from both an artistic and AFL perspective, a real walk through the desert.

    May has to stop Tex. That is the vital part of the game. 

    If Tex and Rankine can be kept quiet, we will win easily.

    I would say so. Tex's year has been exceptional, only 1 goal behind Curnow in the Coleman. Rankine is one of the best forward 50 stoppage players in the comp, gotta watch those ground balls in defensive 50.

    Yes there's Fogarty, Rachele and Thilthorpe who can get on the scoreboard but things up forward do tend to flow from the other two and I'd rather make them try to beat us with their 3rd, 4th and 5th options.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The winds finally returned to Casey Fields for the Demons’ third home game of the VFL season, and its impact was immediate. After two opening rounds played in uncharacteristically fine conditions, the Anzac Day clash brought back the familiar gusty conditions that have been a feature of the region at this time of the year.
      Forced to kick into the breeze first, the slow-starting Demons faced a tricky opening against an enthusiastic young Tigers outfit. Casey responded by turning the contest into a scramble, pressuring Richmond into errors and missed targets. The tactic proved crucial, keeping the game tight for three and a half quarters before the Demons pulled away with the autumn wind at their backs.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      It seemed as if the whole purpose of the Anzac Eve clash at the MCG between the Demons and the Tigers was building toward that single, unforgettable moment when Kozzie Pickett soared above Campbell Gray and all but fittingly etched his name onto the face of the 2026 Frank ‘Checker’ Hughes Medal.
