The Hun reporting Roughy will be at St Kilda next year. Apparently interested in list management as opposed to coaching

He's been mentioned in a couple of threads. My concern is that he's a small that doesn't hit the scoreboard regularly. He averages just over a goal a game (53 from 44). We have a few smalls like that. He may be an upgrade on a Spargo or C Wagner but I'm not convinced.

Who was our last 3x AA?

Haha. Not really, there are plenty Twitter posts about 21 players being in attendance, minus Hurn who apparently wasnt there.

Pendles, McCrae, Yeo, Gawny bench. Lock it in Eddie (Probably, based on players in attendance who haven't been named)

Good point. Got thrown by the ridiculous way they are announcing it.

Hawkins FF ahead of Cameron? Wow

A few on Twitter saying they only invite the team. And they have listed 22 players they have seen so far. We'll have to wait the longest to find out, if he's made the team he'll be on the bench

Langdon will probably finish top 5 in Freo's BnF behind Fyfe, Walters and Hill. Not too snappy for play pick 54

And I thought Kade Chandler wasn't. Didn't we just draft him?

Frost is a positive for me. Still not a smart footballer but starting to cut out the brainfades. Max will win another B&F and should be AA, but may get left out. To hear Goodwin say that Fritsch forward has been a find the last 6 weeks was incredible. We've been calling for it all season! But his last 6 weeks have been great. Trac has put together a solid year. Not superb, but good. Am looking forward to seeing what Burgess can do with him fitness and body wise. Lever and Viney playing a solid block of games will leave them in good stead for pre-season.

He stuck fat over the years, but if he's disgruntled we've only offered 1 year, or that he'll lose the C, then he has no self-awareness at all. Surely he couldn't see out a 3 year contract. If the Suns are offering that, they need more than a PP, they need a list management clean out.

I thought Harmes had a shocker today. Took on tacklers and didn't use the ball well at all. Viney had a good game, but a good game tagging doesn't make him a good captain. Gawn skipper, Lever VC for mine

Saw Lever direct Wagner to pick JKH up after a ripping tackle. Haven't seen Viney or Jones do that for a while, if ever

Maxy...

MFC building this as a "Chance to say thanks to Lewy"... just like our chance to say thanks to Roosey, expecting a 100 point flogging

Or, the noise everywhere but here has overwhelmingly been about Jones and whether he should retire/step down, and that's what Max was answering. I don't think you can draw any assumption about Viney from his comments

Anderson and Rowell are apparently good mates. Wouldn't be surprise if the AFL give them 1 and 2 coz they think it will help keep them up there.

St Kilda still haven't recovered from Lyon's time there. Freo haven't played finals for 5 years. No to Brad Scott too, before people suggest him. I'dmuch rather a Voss or Ratten (although he will have the St Kilda job wrapped up).

Hope not. We don't need another small that doesn't hit the scoreboard

https://melbournefc.com.au/news/2019-08-09/maynard-to-hang-up-the-boots Has retired due to his hip injury

Isn't the word that, if he were to leave, it was to get out if the footy bubble of Melbourne? That being said, if he was available, we'd be mad not to have a go

ANB might be the carryover. When they released the teams they said not every ommitted player would play for Casey.

Surely he won't be. My concern is Viney's reaction if they strip him of the captaincy. I don't think they will, and I don't think he would step down. But it may be in our best interest for one of the two to happen.
