if the rating options are: excellent, very good, good, poor, then yes, oliver is a good kick.

where's the farm?

Don't they say the Saints and Dees fanbases are around the South East of Melbourne? Bayside, etc..? I can see a merge potential there, also, what a marriage! Bayside 64/66 FC. Lol. Bulldogs aren''t going anywhere (the 'Western' saves them - a key to a developing region). North are in big trouble for sure. They play for a inner city suburb and have a low fan base. Growing up a League fan, I have seen the pain caused by mergers.. They never work. Even if the clubs win premierships/flags.. They lose their soul. May as well just go down to the VFL/state league to play and keep the identity..

no idea.. not exactly exciting, but can't be excited by every player.. hey we DID get tomlinson last year.

couldn't be too much dimmer than gawn. personally i reckon viney is a pretty nice guy, despite his footy persona. dare i say it, a sensitive new age guy..

a vomit cake

i'm normally all over the draft boards, blogs and podcasts, but loving the fact i can have a break from all that weird addictive news chasing re: draft and trade period.. looking forward to getting into the EPL instead. see you in march dees!

soft as angel hair.. i’d trade him for a skilled mid.

Brown, Mihocek and Jackson/Weid.. with a combo of Kosi and Spargo/Hunt crumbing..?

i'm anticipating around 8 retirements ?

the difference is i don't think we have heard rumours on our players.. apart from hogan, am i forgetting anyone? or maybe thats just cos we didnt have players of the level to be targeted?

as they should be! maybe they finalised that they should be playing finals this year.. could also be that they realise that they won't go far with the current set-up and that time is wasting away..

NO ONE should be offered 5 years.. unless its trac ?

lazy? half-assed? halvadizzle?

admittedly i was a few beers in.. but i feel like i was trying to focus on his output.. oh well, who knows. i'm not against getting saad by any means, but just don't want to sign another player with average skills, if he's got em, great

didn’t seem to do much yesterday but bomb it long/up?

to me, its just the odd times he does those dinky kicks.. he's tough, brave, by and large elite by foot and a great teammate who seems to gel with everyone else. great game today. i agree. bog today.

[censored] it. he's got speed, other teams will need to worry about him and he can kick barrels. sure. ...but he does seem like a right [censored]

he fills a need and needs to feel wanted by the club to stick around.. not 3 years though. 2 is a compromise. we offer him 1, he leaves then we have to get some delisted chump from adelaide.. get my drift?

sign him. only 2 year deals though moving forward.. if he gets a better offer all the best to him. tough and kicks goals. a little inconsistent but we need those role player types.

love him. be absolutely stoked if we got him.. straight shooter and tough. don't think the pies will wanna get rid of him though.

has fritsch been named?!!

i still love our first one? the one that was referring to the yarra?.. that was really cool. i think from 2016 or so.. but this one is a close second.

i'll get shot down but don't care. way unnecessary from the media dept.. clearly just to show they are doing something or what? who signs off on this [censored]? bartlett was badmouthing the team ten days before and then this.. we lose tomorrow night (and god forbid next week) and this thread comes up like fire. of course i want my team to win and to see good quality behind the scenes [censored], but jesus... the teams we beat are nudda. keep winning dees. at this stage we are still in the 64th pit of hell.
