I take this with a grain of salt considering where it's coming from but I do admit, I always found Jackson's folks very off putting. I remember see her mum commenting on the MFC official Facebook page when he was officially traded and it had all the traits of a very controlling and toxic parent.

Juicy....

Harley reminds me of Adam Cooney and Dusty Martin when they first entered the system. Huge reality shock in terms of the intensity and professionalism of AFL and how much work you need to put in to be a consistent player. He's a country lad who had a pretty laid back personality and yes that can come across as lazy, but that's just how he is. He came back in poor shape this pre season which is normal for 2nd year players because they're still adjusting to diets and training habits. He will be fine, he will tear this competition apart once he hits the 90-130 game mark.

Place your bets. Sharp, Johnson and Lindsay for me.

I think we know why he wants to leave..

Loveeee this!

Wrong thread.

Incorrect. He missed a chunk of 2022 then played as a wingman in thr back end of that year. Played down back in 2023 and then missed half a season with a wrist injury. So no, he's barely played in his natural position as a roaming tall forward.

Jeepers.. not a great look is it.

Howes has been played out of position. He was drafted off the back of an All Australian under 16s year as a half forward and even before covid struck in his under 18s days he was playing fairly well as a Jack Gunston type forward who could push up to a wing. He looks completely out of his depth playing down back and I feel with our current forward issues, I'd love to see him in his natural position where I think he could actually thrive.

Poor bloke has been given the Nick Smith treatment.

Like this one hey?

Pre season games is usually where the heat policy comes into play. Think the only changes are unlimited rotations and no subs, just full use of the extended bench.

Interesting news of Petracca splitting from Connors management.

Him and Pendles looked absolutely cooked.

Plays nothing like Callaghan..

Big time.

Well said.

Yeah that's not how it works mate.
