He's one of our better kicks when given time and space, but I wouldn't have him in the top 3. For me, it's Salem, Melksham and Fritsch in the top 3, and while very very early days Rivers seems to have a very nice kick and could easily push into that group. OMac, for all his faults, is also a nice kick. I'd group Jones around the 5-7 range.

Huge result for us, footy wise. But will anyone buy a membership if they can't go to games?

Oh, I agree with you. I think the lack of info coming out of the club sucks, especially regarding injuries. I was just responding to someone insinuating the website was a sad, unfunny joke due to the presence of the AFLW news.

Isn't the point of being AA that you do it for more than a few weeks? Howe hasn't done that, or else he would have been an AA by now. Howe is a amazing intercept mark. That's all. Not enough to be AA

Sure, but there are various other clubs that use AAMI. Surely the point of isolating the men's team (who would be the priority) is to keep them away from the 3 other clubs and support staff that use AAMI Park

Not at all relevant. The quote was in regards to lack of information about injuries, a legitimate criticism. Not the completely legitimate decision to host news relating to one of the club's teams on the club's website.

I was surprised as well. I'm from the Latrobe Valley and don't remember any festivals in my time.

Good listen, although the proof will be in the pudding. But Goody definitely sounds calm and relaxed. Still hate the way he calls it 2-20.

Definitely seems to be the vibe on Instagram. Jones posted photos with the kids saying 'Good way to start a few days off' or something similar. A fee of the boys were also down in Sale for a music festival

Really glad we've sorted our goal kicking over the summer...

Grundy looks like he's done a Maxy pre-2018. Looks very slim.

Pretty sure OMac's nickname is Porterhouse. Brayshaw especially has called him that on social media (for example, the Instagram takeover for team photos). No idea why.

Sorry to be a pain but it looks more like a 'tson' than an 'Rson'. So it seems like it would be Robertson. Also, as pointed out in another thread, that's likely their heights next to them. Robertson is roughly 185, Anderson is 191.

The perfect forward for our mids. Good at ground level for when they kick it 5 meters on front of him. Great leap for when they kick it over his head

27 contested possessions. ? 7 Tackles ? 645 meters gained ?

The look down at the Crows player when he landed was my favourite part. Arrogant, even

Fritta a late out. No replacement named, no idea why

How were the club to know they players wouldn't vote for him? Someone (perhaps Viney) said at the start of preseason that all leadership positions were open. Does it suck for him? Yes. Is it the clubs fault? No

9 scoring shots to 4. No-one to blame but ourselves.

I was looking for AVB in the injured players and was worried when they didn't mention him. Should have kept reading.

Interesting line towards the end of the Hun's coverage. "Bartlett said improving facilities was the club’s “No. 1 off-field priority” but while there was “movement at the station” he could not elaborate further." And this is The Age's write up. Looks like Pert had a chat to Niall before tonight's announcement. https://amp.theage.com.au/sport/afl/demons-design-plan-to-make-finals-every-year-and-win-a-flag-by-2023-20200217-p541ot.html?__twitter_impression=true

Wasn't advertised on Twitter.

She's insane at the body. Needs to learn to control it but gee whiz. And I felt bad for her with the 50 she gave. Clearly didn't know and was trying to give the ball to the ump.

Great win against pretty good opposition at their home ground. Well done Ladies!
