Roy George come on down.

We were very interested in small forward Joe Berry from last year's draft who went to Port Adelaide. Jason Taylor and his team made several trips up the border here to Wangaratta to interview over the course of the year. Maybe worth keeping an eye on over the next few years.

I'm sure he is.

Jye Amiss is a true WA boy. No way would he agree to a trade into Victoria. They're building a forward line around him for the next decade.

Koz already familiarising with his new teammates ...? 😁

One of them obstacles for Freo being that he's still contracted until 2027 which takes him to Free agency. If he wants to leave at the end of this year then Freo are going to have to stump up alot!

You can still win games and be happy at the same time and leave all at the same time. Just ask Alex Neale Bullen. He clearly he wants to be around more extended family and me personally have no issues with at all even though he is my favourite player on the list and someone that gets me more excited since Jurrah, Farmer and Davey.

He'll definitely leave at some point and I have no doubt about that. Whether if that's the end of this year or when he's contract runs out, either way, we'll be fairly compensate if the right deal is there that suits us.

It's very common PF.. https://www.jiujitsubrotherhood.com/blogs/blog/rib-injuries-in-jiu-jitsu?srsltid=AfmBOopENIKMNFZnBKD0t4L-TK2YOAHnbahgaRdQ7Hge9jJZuK9GCEVt

Sneezing was the worst for me..

Alan Richardson and Gary Pert were also in attendance.

Not sure if they will be there this week, but only a few selected senior players were attending Goodwins wedding in Bali over the weekend i believe.

I agree re Kane being one of the worst appointments we've seen in a long time. You could provide a long list of things her and the rest of the AFL have ruined over the last few years but the one that continues to get my gripe is the sub rule. Didn't it come out that majority of senior coaches had voiced their concern to the AFL around the need to scrap the sub rule all together, so what do Kane and rest of the [censored] do? Reinstate it for another.

I am a Roy George fan as well 'Red' and would happily take him if there was a list spot up for grabs. I think under a full time professional environment, he is someone i could see thriving in the AFL system especially under the guidance of Whelan and Pickett.

Yes

Every. single. team. carries players that are either playing injuried or have missed chunks of pre season. We're the number one supporter base for making excuses for the sake of making excuses.

Bit of an unfortunate story to come out especially this time of the year, but Daniel Tuners folks, Tracey and Rodney 'Rocket' Turner alongside brother Joel sadly lost their home to a house fire in South Albury. Whilst it's unfortunate they have completely lost everything, they did make it out alive with Rod still in hospital for severe burns to his body. Joel's partner has set up a Gofundme page to help the family financially and a few Melbourne boys have jumped on and donated a bit. I personally know his folks really well as they're fairly active in the community here in Albury and you couldn't find two absolute gems in Rocket and Tracey plus his brother Joel is just a legend of a fella. A few of us local footballers and businesses have already banded together and will help with the cleaning up and donating whatever we can during this tough time for the Turner family. Link below. Any small donation will go a long way. https://www.gofundme.com/f/turner-family-home-house-fire?fbclid=PAY2xjawHVzT1leHRuA2FlbQIxMAABpqYWCNckAaHnp8_XQKAkcUBLkZq9ZPk-CChukqNTLJghNFc1PAr-2gBW1g_aem_W1kaJAa0xmSdxghr4wZtPw

I agree Kev, I don't have him in my best 23 but I haven't for a number of years. Him getting dropped at the back end of the year showed he's clearly on notice and imo he's not a walk up start as some think he is. Guys like Sharp, Langford and Linsday coming in will only make it harder for him.

Those guys you mentioned, when up and going means Sparrow spends his days at Casey until an injury. I think Chandler takes ANB role.

Terrible is a bit of a stretch.. It's not the full scale of measuring kicking quality efficiency, but its a good enough guide for AFL coaches to still lean on and pull data from which they do in today's game. Just ask Choco Williams, he is a lover and passionate for all things champion data. In an era where AFL coaches put an absolute premium on stats for todays game they can only go off what the numbers and data say from AFL.com, Champion Data and @WheeloRatings. On that alone Sparrow is a below average kick, not average, but below average.. there is no way to sugar coat that or suggest otherwise. I'd give him leeway of he was still around the average mark but the fact that he's below that speaks volume. On the naked eye it's evident anyway.

Stats say otherwise with Sparrows kicking.

The slow and boring game style of 2024 was a #myth.. I've seen it all now.. lol
