I'm reckoning we'll trade our F1 pick for a first rounder in this year's draft.  We might have to sweeten the deal to get a top 10 pick (do we throw in a 2nd round pick?) 

So 2 picks in the top 10 could net us 2 plug-in and play midfielders??  The Guru in Jason Taylor to identify

There will be a club or 2 who may think we'll finish bottom 8 next year as that is how a deal might get done

Can you imagine how we'll feel if we snag 2 mids who turn out to be very good players in addition to Petracca, Viney, Oliver, Rivers, Sparrow, Kozzie, Langdon, Windsor & Tholstrup? 

Make it happen, Demons!!  

I am well and twoolie amazed, Grace, that The Lamb got his gig before the Lion in disguise called The Big Macca.

You've been in fine form lately with the expansive writings (learnings?) 

But you know how it works here, Monbon ... 

It's the battle between the optimists and pessimists (a bit like Bruegel's battle between Carnival & Lent)

I just feel uncomfortable when the armchair Lentists make Goodwin the core of all error, misfortune, and bad luck: in other words, no coach in history has ever been as blameworthy for so many misfortunes. God Save the King. The Queen, the Pope, whoever!

I reckon it's because of his pressers ... he doesn't say much at all and the punters are hungry for info

I rarely watch pressers anyway as I've always judged the coach on how the team plays 

So I'd like to see some more enterprising footy with more attacking flair.  Our avenue to goal is too predictable.  If you were an opposition backman, you'd often know where to go in advance

But we need to keep up our contested ball work and defensive structures etc etc

A better mix of defence and attack is required

And another proper key forward would make the world of difference (I'd have Petty back)

Have you talked to Siggy Fraud about your obsession wid Collins and the son of Nichol?????

(Translation of the above comments for those unfamiliar with Bonbon speak.)

Yes I was wrong & sorry for jumping from issue to issue indiscriminately.

Goodie had much more talent available than ND.

Ben Beams, Big Al & Matt Collins wouldn't be on an AFL list these days.

Apology accepted.

As I wrote above, you are 100% correct that those 3 would not be on any AFL list these days: they are retired, for a start, and way too old. They are even older than Steven Come What May. 

In the meantime, I'd  keep that appointment with Siggy Fraud. He might be able to help you with your delusions.
