There was a picture of Trac smiling…. Is he happy now?

Tbf we have now won a flag while having a royal blue jumper…. Maybe associate it with that 😉

Love it. I do like the royal blue jumper though. Nothing wrong with having a few different clash jumpers though!

They did an interview with Rivers… but a few more would be good

I was referring more to the forced retired players. Get your point though.

I will put my hand up though and say that during all the turmoil I did feel like turning on him…. But as the dust settles it’s time to change the focus!

I think everyone should lay off Trac and when he gets that first touch round 1 I hope everyone gets up and claps him. Make him remember just how much he is loved at the Dees. It’s a supporters job to support.

McAdam just sighted on the dees insta reel…:

It actually makes no sense that a retired players salary is in the salary cap. They are no longer playing, so why should that affect the ability to pay other players under the cap. Fair enough we have to pay him out of his contract, but just don’t understand the reasoning behind the cap issue

I feel the exact same way… let’s stick it up everyone

When Jeffo kicks his first afl goal I’m hoping I sit near you…. Will be a celebration of epic proportions

I’m not saying they aren’t any good. Just saying there is scope for improvement… like there is with anything

Content I enjoy, not much. Content that people much younger than me enjoy, probably plenty. No offence Saty, but you’re not really the target market when we talk about engagement through social media.

Picket Fence maybe?

Totally understand your concerns with social media in general and the way the algorithms are setup should be criminal. However I don’t think we can compare AFL tik toks and instagram posts with some of the other stuff that goes on

Great point. That is a lot of supporters we could leverage to grow our social media presence

Correct. I would actually view it as an investment into our future more than just employing someone.

Yep 100%. I’m not big on social media personally, but if the club aren’t on the front foot with this stuff they will be left behind and anyone who can’t see that doesn’t understand the modern world.

Totally agree. Oh wow we all get together and take a photo together every win… idgaf

My girlfriend works in marketing and media and previously was working with an agency who dealt with Toyota and the AFL. She’s since moved on but was telling me that the AFL and clubs don’t pay that well in the industry, mainly because it is seen that people do it for the ‘love of football’ or whatever. I’ve always felt this is an area our club should exploit. Pay the extra $40-$50k per annum to get the very best media/marketer we can get to really ramp up our content. This is so important in today’s world unfortunately!

Liking the new training kit!

Agreed. Think he is the ideal Gus replacement in that way, the team glue guy.

I’m very comfortable with any of Smith, Langford or FOS at our first pick. All have different strengths and weaknesses, so can’t see us losing on this one. Will be interesting to see who we go at pick 9 and if we did go Langford it could be great to pair him up with his mate Hynes

I personally didn’t see the horrendous ball use in his highlights you are talking about. Quite often he was running at full tilt or under pressure and hit a number of targets.

I wouldn’t count 2023 as a dismal year. We finished 4th and then lost two finals by 7 and 1 point. The finals were disappointing but not dismal. Last year was a bit dismal, but still won 11 games with a lot of negative stuff going on.
