By Essendon I meant the former essendon fools My money is on Hirdy. unless Dank was hiding under the table!

the funny thing is Essendon leaked this audio and will leak more - but it only hurts them (and the AFL) and drags this thing out more. they STILL somehow wont acknowledge they endangered the lives of 34 players. I hope they win the wooden spoon. pack of [censored] wankers

He didn't give a rats clacker

We might want to wait until the league actually begins. Its hard to be excited by something that hasn't even started. I am keen to see Daisy strut her stuff, she very highly rated by her peers

Ive heard his name pronounced 'Hibbaard', I would have assumed the phonetic Hibberd would be correct? tackling the big issues now.

pick 29 and a pick upgrade is a good result IMO.

thought that was the Hawks list manager during the Lewis trade for a second

Lova ya Grimesy - all the best for the future. if he doesn't get on a list, I'd love to see him signed on a development coach or at least to help with training and standards. no-one did more to get the most out of themselves

God bless you Roosey. when you see that you realise how far he has taken us

yeah we get 'em too, Hunt, Wagner etc. I just reckon, on his merits he had a good year and should be rewarded for working his ar$e off and playing pretty well

Whats your Sauce err Big Sauce?

I reckon Matt Jones deserves a 1-yr deal. if it wasnt for injury he would have played most games. he is reliable in what he provides and is a good runner. if we want to be in finals we need guys like him as depth/on the fringes rather than always being the youngest team

Salem, Brayshaw, JT, Melksham, Hibberd, JKH, Weiderman, ANB, Hullet, are all players that barely played this year that should make a difference next year (some more than others obviously) Add the improvement of Oliver and Petracca in particular and I'm bullish about our prospects of finals next year. this is not including others we might trade in. Its not like we lost the 1st round pick, we cleverly traded it to get Oliver and Weeds in a stroke of genius

Love it. if someone is in doubt of coming to the club, have a beer with Bernie and the choice is easy

agree, he is progressing very well. When he came on the scene last year with that frame I thought no games in first year then maybe a handful in year two but he has done very well. He is so professional with training and preparation and is a great addition to the team will never be the Star player but will hopefully be very important with some much needed run and spread and tidy skills.

Fyfe would be good depth for our midfield. im not agianst it

is it correct that our ave games round 10 was 30 and last week it was 64. big jump? or maybe im wrong

does anyone think Viney will get off? the first two punches I reckon were insifficient force for a suspension but the third is low impact id think. hard to see him avoid a week.

he was great last year but this year he is at 52%. even Gawny is higher than that! Dead-eye Wattsy is at 73% which is remarkable

I don't think a Ba-Zillion Dollar deal until the turn of the century is out of the question

He was the main positive out of today. 9 contested possessions, showed he can take a mark and most importantly looks so comfortable at afl level on the ball or smashing someone is a tackle. If he stays fit he will play 15 games plus. Wont be long til he has the best handball in the team

what a joke. Oliver didnt pin his arms. the bloke went to kick the ball like an overhead kick type motion, so he was moving that way and off balance. hope the senior players pay the fine for him. he would barely have gotten a pay cheque yet!

scully said as much the year he left. words mean nothing Hogan cant predict the future so doesnt want to say something he might regret even if he is 99% sure. fair enough i reckon

the headlines in the papers are a disgrace. NEVER before has a player with 2 year left on a contract had the headline: "talks put off til the end of season". that phrase always refers to a player having one season left on their contract. the casual observer (idiot) that doesnt read the article will look at that and say - oh Hogan is gone. just puts pressure on hogan and is negative publicity for the Dees. The media always kicks clubs when they are down (aside from the bombers). when we win a few they'll be the first to jump on the bandwagon saying we will make the top 4. such lazy, biased journalism

One thing is for sure, it's officially time to panic!!
