Maybe 58er is right get 66,000 supporters actively lobbying the State and Federal Ministers to try and barter for some equity in the large handouts that are being handed out to all these also ran clubs, rather than the Original, the Golden Child that created the game and the rules. We were exiled from the G so the then VFL could make more money - Where is the Compensation. Let’s Sue the AFL and MCC. Did I go to far….lol.!!!

Have some great kids coming through but look a bit fragile for mine a lot of stars in their twilight years and May wish for another top-up year with a super draft next year, dare I say it - “Tanking”.

I feel Dogs will be top eight again in 2023 they have a bit of Star power and have strengthened their forward line with Lobb. Injuries could derail their year.

Agree Spirit ONS Swans are going to be a thorn in the side for a long time, very good side, they will have to replace Franklin and Reid in near future but seem to have them covered.

Congratulations Blake Howes and MFC, love to see him debut in 2023.!!

Thanks Demonland, Demon Jack and all other posters that was scintillating informative and “wish I Were there” reporting, loved the differing observations. Certainly finished pre-Xmas training on a high note and the team sounded like they were on 🔥as well.!!!

Thanks Dazzle36 that was great to hear Oliver Seston he is an interesting story and I will follow him with much interest.!!

Maybe we should give Kye a run in the forward line rjay that is some leap against Max, could fill a role.!!!

Ha ha Sydee I need to upgrade my glasses.!!!

Be happy with a Maverick or Ranger TC.!!!

Thanks Deespicable for your great report a lot to like about the team and loving that Grundy, Schache and Hunter are fitting in so well, really hoping that JJ, Howes, Laurie and Taj get a good run at it next year. !!!

Jefferson, Jefferson,Jefferson Forward.!!!!

To me he is looking very much like one of the key characters from the “Viking Series”, personally I like that Clayton has the confidence to pull it off.!!!!

Ha ha probably dates back to Dick Turpin notorious highwayman who was probably a crack shot, it was a very common term during my school days in the country whether throwing down a wicket, kicking difficult goals or shooting a rabbit.!!!

Get out of way Max I’m coming through, good to see Max getting off the ground as well. A great shot.!!

Agree with DD it’s going to be an interesting watch Tiges have the firepower and strengthened midfield to be up there but injuries could play a role with their aging group of players.!!

I think that Ross Lyon will have his work cut out to get the Saints back on track will they be tempted to play the new kids early??

Thanks for kicking this thread off Demonland one thing that I am really missing is Benny Gibson interviews with all the Newbies, you picked a bad time to leave us Benny Gibson…!!!!

Well done BBP.!!

Blues, Pies and Dons what a bloody joke Bombers have been [censored] since 2005 they should be playing down at the Cattery 1:00 pm Sundays. Blues the same. These numbers show us that there is no integrity in AFL.!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Dazzle do we have anyone in attendance??

Where are they training today???

Port are building, a lot of quality throughout their team they have rebuilt quicker than I would have liked. But can they put it out on the park.!!

They are starting to get some real quality into the team but agree some hard yards yet to come.!!!

Layzie if you do Uluṟu book early as accommodation is tight, we flew into Uluṟu (Yulara) did the Rock and other sites then caught the bus to Alice Springs which was interesting.!!
