And one would suspect that particular player is in for serious problems in the future. It'll be interesting to watch that case to see if he looks for compensation, should he ever have similar issues.

I recall a photo with those two and Dunkley, did he go as well?

MFC site has Rooke as Development coach. I can't recall any announcement on Rooke going to the Forward line, or any other coach taking it over. Very concerned.

Ok thanks Saty

Same question, different wording. Any idea why he's in rehab? I don't recall any mention of an injury.

Dare I say, that spin reminded me of Nureyev.

Of course it is, it's 2 in the morning!

As far as 2019 goes, can't really argue with him. The interesting point, given how poorly our forward line worked in 2019, where does our Forward line coach rate in the league?

I ear ya

Not good enough

He certainly looks in ripping nick. Good to see, giving himself every chance. I reckon Spargo's added a lot of muscle as well.

Must've been in the bad books with the missus then.

Misso was a genius. How many people could've sold the 'nobodies had an interrupted preseason' line?

No Martin has only ever had 2 mates in his entire life. May and Bennell.

Interesting numbers. Do they suggest he played the first 2 of his 4 games this year through the midfield, and the last 2 in the forward line? There's a massive drop off in the numbers there, perhaps he wasn't in the right shape to be playing those last 2?

Never liked him, he's no good anyway. There's just not enough 'Basil' about him.

If we land him I'll change to that name, with your permission of course.

I think you've spelled his name wrong. I believe the correct spelling is: B-A-S-I-L

Not the boneless I hope.

Wherever he ends up, considering his history, is there any option for the club to make a request to the AFL to allow him to train with the club throughout the whole preseason, i.e. prior to the December 3 stipulated date?

Throw OMac into your 22 and you'll see just how fast PF can move. Like [censored] lightning.

It's good news, but I'm really hoping we're not going into the 2020 season without a very good Forward line coach. At this stage we don't have one at all.

Perhaps you could weave some of your magic with Dieters line above....

So essentially, it's a bog standard AFL cockup

Personally I think recruiting inside mids constantly to the point where we have no run - and then recruiting a few runners and declaring them the saviors, is a bit like walking away from your Kurd mates in Syria to let Turkey run through them, only to then turn around and negotiate a pretend cease fire, and claim at as a win. But I think both are super recruits and exactly what we need. Of course.
