  1. I don’t know about insane, but having an apprenticeship under Thompson and Hird, no doubt helping us
  2. You have good judgment. Likewise, I agree, however, I just believe we by far and away 10 miles to none have the best list. We fluked the 2021 flag, and now we pay he price. Our coach lacks discipline. Our players are ineffective. This Is a whole other convo, but, if Goodwin remains, then certain players are going to waste. That being said, I speak of discipline. As a club, we really do need to be led correctly. We were partially sidelined by Paul Roos endorsing Goodwin, primarily because Roos believed Goodwin was best suited to carry on Roos vision. Big mistake. I believe it is. I really don’t know why we appointed the bloke, and Roos aside, we wouldn’t have.
  3. ANB was enormous.
  4. Disciple manifests from the top down.
  5. We have bombed the ball inside our forward since Moloney/Jamar. We just happened to pinch the 21 flag. Supporters are happy enough with that.
  6. Listen to them. We squandered our best asset - our lead. Be hard now.
  7. Typical Melbourne
  8. Skills pay the bills. This game ain’t got many
  9. We need a forward
  10. I’d agree
  11. The umpires helped Carlton. That wasn’t a free kick that resulted in their last goal. Whoever wins tonight I think will go far. But I love seeing daring football. There is an opportunity to switch the play and run and gun.
  12. Discipline is a big thing in football
  13. Can’t believe we played Jordon
  14. Kick the ball off the ground out of congestion. Outside of that I can’t see how the AFL avoid concussion within the contest. The contested area already doesn’t make sense. Players don’t understand it. Someone will snap their neck soon. The only way out of that is to kick it off the ground out of congestion. But that wouldn’t be considered I doubt. But basically, the game is heavily focused around the contested ball. It’s at the heart of Aussie Rules. If they change that they change the game. But if they don’t do something they’ll face payouts the AFL won’t come back from.
  15. I hope it does go to court. Brayshaw deserves compensation.
  16. Depends who is footing the bill.
  17. We need competent forwards, not gun AFL level rucks who cannot play forward. Grundy in, would be a waste, as neither Grundy or Gawn are much chop up forward.
  18. I don’t like Maynard. But he’d be stiff to miss a grand final on that. The rules are predicated on players sacrificing themselves at the expense of their opponents though, so I suspect he may end up missing the grand final game (should the pies make it). The adjudicators make the rules though. They’ll eventually foot a very big bill in the future, as they have a league full of players they encourage to recklessly sacrifice their own health.

    I agree. Pick 2 is Reid anyway. North know it and won’t trade it. WC won’t trade 1 as they’ll miss Curtain. I think Reid is inevitably off to North.

    North will just take 2, 3 to the draft.

    As a massive JVR fan. I still think we’d consider that. But respectfully decline.
  22. Just a great lead up. Beating Sydney at home, in a meaningless game. Really important we won this.
  23. 6. ANB 5. Fritsch 4. Brayshaw 3. Petracca. 2. JVR 1. McVee i know I’m probably missing an obvious one. Viney was good, Rivers ok.
  24. Laurie massive
  25. Massive impact
