Garbo

Id get him if we only had to pay by the goal and or game, no way would I sign him without massive clauses round performance, if he wants 700k fine but he needs to play 22 games and kick 50

Just realised freo taking Jackson is payback for dees taking Jeff White, how did they do out of that trade?

Every time you here him speak he genuinely come across as loving the club and the other players he seems like the type to wear his heart on his sleeve so the only question is why hasn’t he signed yet.

Well we avoided a repeat of last year, now time to put the foot down cats can’t play 4qtrs

Think cats will always be the most satisfying team to beat, they are arrogant but it’s earned

Elite for a ruck below average for a mid and that’s the issue how valuable is an elite ground ball ruck when a mid does a better job every day of the week

Can’t see him staying if he hasn’t signed on yet, we are reigning premiers and are in the frame for years to come, we would be offering a fair price considering who else we have to fit in. If he hasn’t signed with us yet he is just waiting till end of year to announce who he wants a trade to.

10.5 over 7 sounds made up and would make him the highest paid player in the afl, but if true dees should take freo to the cleaners you can’t offer that kind of contract and only offer peanuts in a trade. 2 picks in side 5 or there Brayshaw and a pick inside 5, either would the minimum

Won’t be back before finals if true even at the low end

The spell is broken we are no longer the bench mark, least we got 2021, now we scrap it out with everyone else

See if Wilson criticises her beloved tigers with the same zeal as she did us this week. Some how I think she will conveniently forgot or make up an excuse

So one match for drinking while on concussion protocol, nothing for punching Melksham 😀

Think the knock on Tomlinson is unwarranted, he was asked to play the Steven May role once Petty was injured and he ain’t no Steven May, he is fine as the 3rd / 2nd tall imo if May is back next week and we wanted to try Petty up forward for example. Lever also should get some criticism for leaving Tomlinson out to dry when he is the senior player with May out, he needed to play a more negating role and be less attacking.

Keep Tomlinson down back and put petty up fwd he showed in 2019 I think he can kick goals

Signs have been there all year of the drop off in some aspects since last year combine that with a few injuries and we are back in the pack. Until we can generate more scores per entry we are going to be vulnerable to the better teams. We were lucky we were so accurate to start and swans missed chances or the game could have been over at half time

No May no dees

Gawn is super

Only works as May and petty are out, May in particular has allowed us to get away with some bad habits

Can Goodwin just concede we need to even up numbers round ball when we are undermanned down back like tonight, we will throw away this game if they don’t adjust to that reality, we should have enough talent in the middle if we just make it a contest at the ball

Not the only one we have fallen into a trap of relying on our backs to just win it back, our mids need to work harder to compensate if we are to win

To be fair we wouldn’t have depth either to cover that

Doubt it was on much it’s not like he was in demand, if he turned it round we get a player for minimal outlay if he doesn’t then nothing lost. The real question is do we continue to persist or give other players a chance. Not necessarily jvr, in the here and now Mitch Brown might also deliver more

Any idea what the issue with Petty is, if he is out plus May we really going to struggle to contain the swans. If Trac still has issues he shouldn’t be playing next week either. One thing is certain we need to come into next week with no passengers. Salem and Landon straight back in if fit for Melksham and Dunstan , Tomlinson for May. Wish I had ideas with the fwd line as a whole, like what I see with bedford and Pickett is fairly productive, everyone else is problematic to some degree or another.

Not to worried, until petty went off we were winning handily, maybe our mids and fwds were a bit down but still had it in control. More concerning is if this happened in a final and we don’t have a plan b to fall back to, with the talent on our list we should be able to overcome and adapt

Goodwin the right man for the job
