Palace Dees

What I find myself doing (since mid year) is getting sucked into the 'talk' of who's the best draft prospect etc, etc. I then find myself disappointed we may not get A or B or even C! Then I look at our track record as a club and realise, they know a helluva lot more than me, and most other clubs. As has been said by many of the more rational posters. We have to trust Jason and the people involved here. They have a proven track record. I wait and will applaud whatever they do Monday.

I heard that too. Has that happened in the past? Would clubs show their true hand then? Seems high risk, especially with people like Dodoro around.

Hahaha. He said Harley....I think 🤔

Cal asked Jason who we will take at 6. He replied 'Reid'. You heard it here first!

Of course he will. I was very much tongue in cheek. But will be worth a listen anyway. Even if it is just confirming we haven't a clue. 😆

Jason Taylor is on Gettable at 12.45 today. I'm sure we'll know exactly what we will pick then. 😉

As a fellow 'Fosterican' I have a great deal of respect for Dean Duursma. However, if we are talking football pedigree, Kynan's dad has him covered. 😉 I dare say the tables will turn next generation 😁

How does the team that won the flag by 81 points 14 months ago get the 4th easiest draw?

I don't like either scenario!

We will get the chance to knock the Pies out of the finals, and Maynard out of the park!

I bow to your more intimate knowledge of him as a player, and you may be right in that rookie level is the right assessment of him. I have only seen 4 full games of him on TV eg. National Champs and Casey (where he impressed me more than Duursma did). I like his attitude to the game and seems to have a pretty good footy IQ. He also had a blinder later in the year for his local team, 25+ possessions and 5.2. I certainly rate him higher than I did Taj in his year. Anyway, if we get to rookie him then everyone will be happy. Fingers crossed.

Yeah, there has to be logic to it. Maybe a rookie spot is our only real choice if we want him. I'd just hate to lose a father/son that can play.

Gee, the FD has me well and truly covered, but that seems a risky strategy to me.

Yep. The amount of ads is why I've stopped listening. You are right, they can't have more. It's already more than a 3rd of airtime. I listen to the occasional Corn free breakfast replay (which doesn't include the ads). La Dee-vina makes some good observations, but you'd still be a tad nervous as an employee.

Agree, but the 10% of worthwhile content is not worth the pain of the rest IMO. You may have seen my similar post re him a few days ago. There is enough sh*t happening in this world without voluntarily reading it on a fan forum.

I can highly recommend the "Ignore" option WCW. I knew it existed, but only just found it yesterday. Only one person needed actioning, but it has made visiting Demonland so much less frustrating.

I have no problem with 1 game a year in Alice. Quite like it in fact. We have a longish history there now and a growing fan base as well. We have done some good work there of which I'm proud of the club for. Sometimes you have to look at the bigger picture and applaud the club for instigating projects like the Santa Teresa Oval Project as well other positive community work.

https://www.sen.com.au/news/2023/11/12/why-theres-a-lot-to-like-about-the-drafts-best-key-defender/ Mick Ablett is a respected judge of young talent. He ranks O'Sullivan above Curtin and after re-watching the Allies vs WA match, played mid year, I can see why. O'Sullivan was absolutely dominant, not so Curtin. That said, Curtin was on Walter so had a bigger task. The game is recommended viewing as Sanders also played very well.

I saw it and was amazed how many times Brisbane kicked it into a Brisbane free front half. Must admit it was a gutsy win, but they looked a lot better against us last week.

If things go our way tomorrow, what's the best result in today's Adel vs Bris? Eg. what gives us the best chance of continued home finals?

Fortunately, BT doesn't do VFL Unfortunately, he still does AFL

More importantly, Ron is. Love it. Thank you.

I wouldn't open up anything Herald-Sun even if my Fish 'n Chips were wrapped inside. Yes, I'm old enough to remember when they did that.

Not quite. The socks! 😉
