Has not played a seniors game this season. Is not on their injury list. Looks like spare parts will be his lot.

He finally got himself ready to play but had concussion in one of their practice matches. I believe he's only just back to full training, you'd think it wouldn't be too long.

The world isn't all bad

If only Collingeffingwood was in there as well to round out the bottom four

I'll be content when Collingwood, Geelong and Hawthorn join them to form the bottom 6.

Nah. Gold Coast. And Carlton's sends me to sleep.

Ain’t Skillda is pretty boring and repetitious - I think only 13 words, and 3 of the 4 lines repeated.

How bad are the skills and decision making in the roos bombers game... want roos to win, but gee, they make such stupid decision.

The SGL must have rocks in their heads to put on North v EssUndone as a Saturday night special.

Not sure how Essendon get out of this, been like it for years. Scott is a decent coach, maybe needs better assistants? On one of the shows they were pointing out how inexperienced their coaching panel was - but they've only got themselves to blame. Losing Giansiracusa hurt apparently.

Ask a knowledgeable Norf supporter what they think.

It really comes down to list management, and it’s mostly luck. We were one pick away from both McCartin and Parish… There were many Demonlander’s who thought they were good options at the time. Who knows where the club would be if we ended up with those two..

We didn't realise it at the time but 2021 really was the perfect storm

Hardly any injuries with a stack of players having their best year in footy. +6 in the free kick count in the GF when many were expecting a deficit of at least -6

And who would have thought that we'd handle the hubs better than most

Long bombs to the pocket worked a treat. Selfless footy a standout

It's been downhill ever since highlighted by a 6 & 8 finishing record in 2022 after starting the season 10 & 0.

We lost our way sometime in 2022

And now we're starting all over again

What has de Koning bought the Saints?

A very Large Bill.

He is a good Player, but nothing special.
St.Kilda are just being St.Kilda..$1.4 Mill a year, and they paid overs for Silvagni, Why??
Their President comes across as an arrogant Fool, in regards to football matters.
By all means recruit stars of the game, Splash the Cash, but don't buy B Grade Players and put them on huge Contracts..
That's such a St.Kilda thing to do

Brisbane Smacked them so hard in the last Quarter....

Can't underestimate the advantage we had in 2021 through not having made the finals in 2020. Longer off-season break, more time for players to recover and get over injuries, etc. etc. We were flying all year and never really ran out of steam.
