It’s ‘rapt’ but is this just your guess based on contract extension + coming back in good shape or have you heard something more from someone at the club?

Noooo? Don’t say 😂 

 

Yeah but I quote through Siri and can’t be bothered correcting her when she’s so polite! 
 

Nope that’s form someone at the club albeit in a non coaching role but still I’m not gonna hand it to you rapt now am I.. 😜 

[censored], I just used the wrong rapt/wrapped again there didn’t I.. silly moi

    Not sure whether it was mentioned earlier in the thread but Cal’s Late Mail Phantom Draft will be released at some stage tonight.

    Does anyone think Xavier Lindsay or Murphy Reid is still a chance for us at pick 9? (Especially if Allan or Tauru don’t get through, which is a live possibility.) We are crying out for some good, accurate kicking (lace out) and some footy IQ. It really depends on where JT rates them as well. Could see Hynes come into play possibly (especially if the eagles are desperate for Allan and he makes it to our pick)

    In fairness, i think there is a very real chance that Tauru slides to our pick 9 as well, Bo Allen seems to be coming with a bullet. 

    Langford and Tauru would be a dream result.

    Cal said that Lindsay vs Allen is a 50/50 call we will make at pick 9 and he made a point of saying his prediction might well change with his late mail.

    It’s a tough call. On one hand Allan is a physical athletic beast, but could be a flight risk in the future. On the other hand Lindsay is probably the best kick in the draft with good endurance and pace, while his inside craft is said to be lacking. Could depend on who is selected at 5 as well.

    I’m sorry, misspellings a real trigger for me.

    Good news the club think that about him.

    There's a realistic scenario where Allan is gone to the Tigers at 7 and Lindsay to the Saints (or GWS via trade).

    5. Langford

    9. Tauru

    Gut feel is Giants are all over Lindsay if they grab one of the Saints picks. Closest available player to Windsor given they missed him last year.

    In that scenario that means Tauru is available at pick 9 👀

    I’ve long loved the Langford Lindsay double so I’d be thrilled with this 

    I still rate Allan too though, so either of them alongside Langford is a massive win

    Style wise, Lindsay makes more sense. Classy user off half back first up

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
