Just heard from a mate with a 60/40 record of being correct on these things, apparently Grundy met with Gawn and Goody recently and deal has been reached for Grundy to Demons next year with Dogga heading home.

Yeah we would have glued 6 mahogany cheese boards together in a row to write a sign like that

Great team win tonight, fantastic to see some of the key elements of what made us so successful last year return in triumphant fashion!

Weeeeeeeeeiiiiid!!!!

Surely with JVRs competitiveness both in the air and on the deck he is a logical replacement for Weid next week.

The Weid has had as many disposals as our medi sub, can somebody who’s there fill us in on what’s going on? Is he in good positions and the balls just not going to him or is he just lost?

looks like @binman 's prediction of JVR making a late appearance this season is gaining momentum with JVR emergency!

Yeah I was talking to a Collingwood supporting acquaintance who said we should throw everything at Jacko and let Brayshaw go. My reply was, yeah nah, if I have to choose, I choose Bryashaw thanks and take the draft picks for Jacko. I then said, interesting Pies are trying to offload a ruckman they threw everything at. And then walked away.

Dwight, can you please now announce Jacko has signed up too? Pretty please?

Anyone know how to listen to this after the event? I missed it live and would love to hear it

From a pure sports science point of view it would makes sense that our training loads would be higher this year than last for two reasons: - the same stimulus applied twice doesn’t have the same effect the second time around as the body will be starting from a higher base than when exposed the first time. As such the body is more efficient in coping with the stress and doesn’t adapt to the same degree. At the same time it can cope with more work because of said efficiency so… - applying a higher load is possible which would not have been achievable the first time round. It’s called progressive overload and used across all sports in some way shape or form so it would makes sense they have done more this year than last

Yep and Grundy is signed until 2027

I don’t think the selections really matter, will come down to whether we take our chances or not and whether the will to win is as strong as we saw in 2021, other than that it’s just shuffling the deck really.

This time last year against dogs 11 frees to 24, this year 12 to 20 so far 🤔

Ands that why sometimes you should just have a shot

Jesus [censored] Christ May!!!!

[censored] hopeless umpiring inconsistency. ANB caught and had balls away free, Bont caught throws it play on

How the [censored] was that not HYB and incorrect disposal then! fFS

Don’t hate the idea if we loose Jackson, as long as the $ are reasonable. I’m hearing English to WCE, Grundy to dogs but I reckon your mail would be stronger.

Unhappy that weve had 3 frees in a half! Outrageous!

Nice composure there from Spargo

Heat and less recovery from last week hurting us atm?

Why do we have half the time to dispose of it when caught with the ball than them? 🤔

I like it!

Was always going to happen, dogs don’t loose too many quarters on the free kicks for stats
