Keith “Bluey” Truscott Trophy 2019
Not sure people really understand our season and how this is reflected in the voting. only 11 players played more than 15 games so the top 10 is basically the players who played out the season. not a reflection of a good season, eg, Hunt/Gus. Viney got 3rd as he played most games and put in every week and did not play as badly as a lot on here think (although it was an average year from him). If we had our best 22 uninjured and Viney put in the same season he would not have made the top 10. see the 2018 voting results. so given the above there is not much point complaining or trying to understand the results. Also, Gawn's season was not as good as 2018, maybe he was influenced by the midfield being so poor but I would say if you looked at both seasons closely he influenced games a lot more in 2018 so i think the votes are fair enough

Keith “Bluey” Truscott Trophy 2019
How is Milkshake second? His first few games were shockers from memory. He had a couple of good games later so maybe he polled top votes?

Jamie Elliott
We are getting Elliot after next season??? You

Toby Greene's Dad
I actually feel sorry for Toby. Having a role model like this explains a lot. Especially as the father seems to have bailed on the family. No wonder he is an angry man

When big clubs stop being big clubs
It’s a great time to compete with Vic clubs. Dons, blues and saints all poor. Hawks are in for a rough patch. As seen by our two finals last year with 90K plus the fans come out quickly when you win. Get that right and we’ll be fine off field

Willie Rioli Suspended for 2 years
It does matter if it’s legal in the first world. It’s relevant. The fact that players are tested for non PEDs is nonsense imo. Conceptually a player should not be suspended for smoking weed imo. If he tampered with his test to avoid getting done for smoking weed, it’s the system and his own stupid decision that causes 4 years. Not any cheating or performance enhancing drug taking

Willie Rioli Suspended for 2 years
4 years for smoking some weed. It’s legal is some countries. What is the world coming too?!

List changes who do we cut, trade or go after.
Nice work Billy Stretch! Take the GC money and run mate!

Willie Rioli Suspended for 2 years
Why are the afl testing for cannabis? The opposite of performance enhancing. To lose you career over smoking a joint seems insane. I know he was dumb to it but punishment seems too much

Welcome to Demonland - Alan Richardson
If Richo is Goodys mentor, I’m not sure I agree with this. No success as head coach, didn’t see much evidence of tactical skill at saints although they always beat us. Hope they know what they are doing.

Finals Week 3
So 3rd Vs 6th in the GF. The advantage of finishing in top 4 and especially top 2 seems to have diminished greatly due to the bye. Amazing impact really. Scrap the bye I say. There should be proper reward for finishing top 2. The most important thing at the moment is being form at the right time not being the best team for the year

Farewell Sam Frost
So the guys saying we gave him a low ball offer were full of BS. Who would have thought??

Finals Week 3
Greene should get cleared tonight for that face rub. shouldn't miss a final for that. but whitfield and Coniglo hurts. The rested Pies will beat them easy

Bombers Succession Planning
I don't think it's smart at all. have some balls and sack the bloke if you think he is not up to it. or offer him a mentor role. an embarrassing year coming up for Woosha. if he was doing well, this would not be happening. A bit like the North Scott situation. we are parting mutually, nothing to do with being 2-7. if they planned this mutable separation then why are north paying 600K next year in the soft cap. clubs don't want to be seen to be sacking coaches these days as it implies failure so they are using PR and the media and fans eat it up

Bombers Succession Planning
Clubs are finding very creative ways to sack coaches these days you can be sacked tomorrow or agree to this BS succession plan. ummm i guess the second option

Splitting Draft Pick 3
wasn't talking about any particular trade. maybe the rules have changed but previously they could use points and late draft picks to get the best players in the draft. eg Heeney with a late first rounder. are they going to use pick 3 on Green if they get it?
-
Splitting Draft Pick 3
Great to see a Sydney team get gifted another top 3 draft pick while finishing in the top 4. Joke
-
Andrew Gaff
I would trade pick 2 for Gaff. Seems a fair deal. Add Elliot and Langdon and our list looks very different. no way WC would give us pick 13 back unless Gaff wanted out which he doesn't

Finals Week 3
3pm on Sat for the 2nd final, wtf? I hope Hawkins gets a 2nd week for having the audacity to appeal good to see Garry Lyon and co saying he should take the week and run. Most in the media thinking he was lucky to only get one week. imo Hawk has zero chance to overrule the decision

Finals Week 2
Did I hear someone say Whitfield is the best player in the league? good player but looked soft tonight

Finals Week 2
Best quarter of footy I’ve watched all year. Had it all. Cameron is a dead set champ playing through the pain. I though he had busted his arm. Carn the bears! toby is the ultimate villain. Love to hate him and wish we had him

Finals Week 2
Was are people so impressed with Selwood just because he bleeds on the softest of contacts. He had a good game but only 5 contested possessions. He was smashed last year by the demons in finals and gave away undisciplined free kick which lost them the game. But that gets no attention.
