Woey... 🥰

Could be Jack Bell.

Looks like no Daniel Tunrer for tonight either..

I hope Van Rooyen kicks a bag.. No pressure.

Wasn't Weid named in the actual field in tonight's game?

How was the experience on the day mate? Very jealous, but glad folks like yourself got to experience it!

Game had started. Anyone ended up going?

Feel like we've had a fair few of these kind of celebrations into the new season type events this year already. It's been done to death now. If people are still wanting reason to celebrate then watch the replay. Our sole focus should be on 2022 season.

No it's on foxtel

You can't edit live Zoom OD. *Edit @Lord Nev beat me to it.

No. Play the one practice game or two and leave it as that. The set up now is fine imo. When you're playing 3 or 4 games before round 1 you're just risking injuries to key players well before round 1 has even started. The relevance of the whole pre season cup has died a slow death years ago when Carlton were winning pre season premierships but end up winning the wooden spoon that very same year.

Anyone able to head down to Ikon Park?

I'm still shocked we gave him another year. He's a list clogger.

Yes I am aware that schools are finally opening up Bash.. I am talking as a whole for the past 18 months which you are pretty much referring too. You're not going to get a rush of AFL players into schools for a while if not any this year. The risk on player's now catching covid will be significant and clubs will still be putting restrictions on player's being put and about in the community.

He's been training down back all summer. Half back will be his new role.

Not sure if you are aware but Covid has played a significant impact in this..

I'm still waiting on an announcement on our home base..

Great! Hopefully a few dee supporters can get down and see some of our talent on display. Guys like Van Rooyen, Woewodin, AMW, Laurie and Howes would be worth the watch.

I like this one too

They were still our club captains regardless what you think of them as players. They went through the darkest period in the clubs history and barely saw any light. They deserved to be part of it just as much as these blokes. Lyon, Neitz, Viney had their turns last December on the MCG. Jack Grimes captained more games then Todd Viney FYI. I am not wanting this discussion to be seen at potting those names, far from it. They too are a part of our rich history. But if we're acknowledging past players who have made significant impact at this club then Trenners and Grimes deserved to be recognised as well.

That would be a great opportunity for Daisy. I hope she takes up the offer for the benefit of her own coaching development.

Disappointed once again that Grimes and Trengove continue to get overlooked in all this.

Yes fair call. I'm a bit harsh on Smith at times just because his football nous worries me. But seeing that Goody was willing to put his balls on the line and select Smith over a well established defender in Hibberd was such a significant call, especially so late in the year coming up to finals. I think it was a courageous selection and showed why Goodwin isn't afraid to just play safe. You could mount the same case for Jake Bowey. Had Smith not got injured people's perception including myself, would have changed because we would be talking about Smith the premiership player. It's well obvious that coaching staff rate him enormously and have for a while. His body has let him unfortunately. I'd personally have no issues with him playing round 1.
