DistrACTION Jackson

I'd say if May doesn't get up they will go Turner as the replacement. Petty will take May's role and Turner will play in Petty's role. Gawn to play more behind the ball as opposed to forward.

Also could have all the hallmarks of Angus Brayshaw 2.0 and holding out only to re-sign.... Most of these journos have no idea

I'll be heading to the Gabba for the very first time, so would love the score line to be the same. I doubt it though but I'll take any win!

FYI this is regarding Rivers. I have no intel on Pickett.

I've been told that as long as he gets the money he's happy with he will be staying. I'd say his deal will be done early on in the season.

100% agree. I think you create the 'Eastern Football League', which is essentially just the reserves teams for each of the afl teams. Start the season at the same time and have it run almost identical in length etc to the AFL. It's a shamozzle atm and some players have multiple byes and unable to stake their claim for a spot.

Let me ask you this, were you at either of the Sydney or Brisbane finals? If not, then I can confirm you are not the reason

I was disappointed that Jackson left, but devastated is the word I would use if Kozzy left. He is such a special player and brings so much joy watching him play.

Wow, what a rollercoaster ride this is

Finger crossed it isn't too serious and only a 1-2 game type thing. In any case, this could give Jordon a good opportunity in the midfield.

One thing is for sure, this thread may spiral out of control this year....

It is a pretty weird thing to say though. There is a lot more examples of players who stay at their original clubs and achieve just as much or more than those who leave.

More reason for Kozzie and his manager to get it sorted sooner so he doesn't have to be put through this BS....

A few people started to talk about it during the trade period, but I think that was off the back of Cornes comments.

His bias as a Port supporter wanting Pickett to play for them is so obvious it's sickening. He is like a supporter who thinks if they say something enough they will wish it into existence. Maybe Pickett does leave at the end of the year (I would be shattered), but seriously Kane STFU you annoying so and so....

Could be very dangerous making such huge decisions from one season of form from Cameron. He could very easily be a flash in the pan type player and end up a fail.

Hey DD did they do this for all of the games? If so, where can I find it?

It's a shame they went and won it the year after.... would've been nice if that was their last finals run ending in an 80 point drubbing.

Bit of a concern with Fritsch. I wonder if we would play JVR in his role if Fritsch isn't fit for round 1? Could be a good option for the 3rd tall.

That's a shame. Seems like a great bloke.

Can you both try meet somewhere in the middle?

At least he is walking in straight rather than facing almost sideways

I love this. I prefer Gawn floating back than in the forward line, unless he can start kicking straighter. Just please try handball off to a Brayshaw or Bowey once it's been marked Max.

There's not too many lock options for the Dees this year in my mind! Oliver is a lock for me. Gawn and Grundy it's hard because we don't know their roles. If McVee or van Rooyen are named I may have them on my bench.

I think it stands for Melbourne Park Olympic Trust or something.... think the area around Gocshs
