  1. Haha but then happy to smash others like Hasleby for having one..
  2. Lol c'mon mate... He's a paid commentator/journo. He's doing exactly what he's paid to do and that's simply give his opinion. You say he's an unashamed Freo bias but yet he was the one that actually question the Luke Jackson trade instead of fawning over it like many other WA journo's
  3. What so people aren't allowed to make pre season predictions?? No different to many on here who predict these kind of things of the back of pre season training reports.
  4. Agree. The sub could work well for the likes of Dunstan and Sparrow who could come on and provide much needed relief and grunt when games are neck and neck.
  5. I reckon Dunstan was pretty stiff at times in getting more AFL games. There were opportunities there where I felt we needed another big bodied experienced midfielder to come in towards the back end of the year and shoulder the burden off Oliver and Petracca who were getting physically targeted aand heavily tagged. The two finals games were perfect opportunities to bring Dunstan for Sparrow imo. Sydney's experienced and bigger bodies were simply too strong for ours. Then against Brisbane Jarrod Berry put the hard clamps on Oliver and took him out of the game while Petracca was running around on a broken leg, Viney was disappointing and Sparrow was completely overwhelmed and MIA. Someone with bigger body and over 100 games of experience would have been handy to chop out in the midfield. I've harped on this before but Sparrow (yes I know coaches rate him highly) was pretty disappointing for me last year. I know he does the defensive stuff well but when we needed someone to stand up to help the likes of Oliver and Petracca, he was no where to be seen. By all reports he's having a strong season so hopefully that'll translate into stronger influences on games. On Dunstan, I have no idea where he's at now. Clearly Goody doesn't see fit for him at all and it's now looking like another Brayden Pruess perplexing decision in bringing him in even if it's depth. Goody's reluctance to reward VFL form or bring in the required depth when actually needed means the likes of Dunstan will be lucky to play 5 games this year.
  6. Taj Woewodin and Deakyn Smith have put on significant muscle over the break.
  7. Sheesh.. 🔥 Ps please sign a 10 year deal Koz.
  8. Not sure he has the strength of Hibbo.
  9. Knowing training will be at Gosch paddock genuinely excites everytime because we get spoilt well by the same usual regulars who attend. Appreciate all the training reports lads @DeeSpencer @Slartibartfast @george_on_the_outer @Nudge @kev martin @Demonland
  10. To be held at RSEA Park. Details will come out soon I presume.
  11. Jesus, no leeway from choco considering the kid is up against a 2 time All Australian 203😳cm 100kg ruckman
  12. Yes I am aware that the Academy prospects get sent out to AFL clubs each year. The only other prospect I can think is that the mystery #46 could be Cooper Simpson from thr Dandenong Stingrays. He's another AFL Academy prospect who I do know for a fact did train with us last week? Not sure of He's there this week, perhaps they have rotated a few prospects around.
  13. Lol.. no way Brisbane are dropping out. They'll be up there contending hard.
  14. O'Meara doesn't really improve them. He's knees are absolutely cooked. He adds a big body and experience but that's where it stops.
  15. Not sure if full time professional athletes going up against part time athletes who work full time is appropriate preparation.... I'd prefer the solid hitout against an AFL club. 1 game only.
