Flynn is to good to be playing VFL we need a developing ruck/ fwd 23-26 yo that can pinch hit when needed whilst they develop him to the next level. Needs to be strong, tall 202cm or more and highly competitive with reasonable kicking and marking skills. Not much to ask really.???

Can I just respond to Tom Morris - Ha Ha Ha ha……..Ha Ha ha….!!!! Your a real killer Tom.!!!

jnrmac I am sure the FD wouldn’t have gone after McQualter if they (not just Goody) weren’t prepared to utilise his broad experience’s and the Yze overheard conversation is just more anti Goodwin hearsay.😁

Terrific news for MFC, I really enjoyed him on 360 as well, my wife said last week I think that we will get McQualter and I said that would be a great result but I doubt we will be that lucky. Wahooo.!!

I agree with Dimmy that BB & TMac have earnt the right to be treated with dignity as their careers draw to a close. Their contracts as previously mentioned are sunk costs for 2024, the issue that I and possibly others are struggling with is that we have a great draft hand but are lacking list spots to match our draft hand and I cannot see how we free these spots up without paying out One or both of Benny and Tommy Mac. It’s a bloody nightmare.!!

Who knows BBO he may add a bit of X factor in our 2024 finals campaign if Jake can get back in time.!!!

WCW maybe when umps fail to pay obvious free kick, the players react to the expected free the crowd react but the umpire who has no feel for the game signals Play On.!!

Agree R(B)G Adams, he represented us in the GF sprint final on Saturday, tall 196cm, lean and has some pace about him. Really hope he puts in the hard yards pre-season and gets a run in 2024.!!

Overall I got to see and enjoy all the home games bar Brissie as I was in Cairns that week. We played some great games and debuted some great kids, we failed to capitalise on a number of excellent team performances which cost us dearly in the end. A terrible year for losing key players at critical times during the season. Gus being Ko’ed and poor kicking cost us a critical chance of moving into the Prelim, the Pies fans left me feeling claustrophobic and angry. The Blues fans were much more like us but watching us cough up two goals in 2 minutes really hurt, felt a bit shell shocked really. Huge crowds at both games so the fans are back out in huge numbers, great for the AFL coffers, realised that concussion issued are not an issue for AFL. Some peculiar and bizarre decisions by the umpiring fraternity and the ARC system is a shambles that possibly cost us a shot at another Granny. Terrible to lose to Pies/ Blues then losing Barassi immediately after really deflated me and all those close to me. But being an MFC rusted on person I have learnt the value of resilience and perspective and I have licked my wounds and moved on. As for the AFL, just so disappointing in every important aspect of the game and their OH&S record speaks for itself. Crickets.!!!!

That would be nice, like in the old days.!!

Yes biggestred - Pies, Richmond, Essendon, Hawks, Blues, GCS, GWS, Swans & WCE to play at Geelong for the next 20 years, North to play at Alice (they need the cash). I want 15 games at the G, 2 at Marvel and 6 Interstate games for a change.!!!

It’s always hard when a player chooses to leave your club it certainly rankles a lot of supporters but also saddens those that wanted him to stay. It’s an emotional issue and we have fresh experience of these feelings.!!

Interesting that Noah is listed as 189cm and 84kg good size and wt for a 17yo. Let’s hope he has a great 2024 and he nominated us.!!

Shane McAdam is a like for like replacement for Jake Melksham, he is hard at it, can take a mark and can kick a goal. He fills a hole in our list, he has his supporters and detractors will Shane succeed, I genuinely Hope so. If he fails it hasn’t cost us a lot to find out. Good luck Shane.!!!

Thanks LH great effort as usual, it’s going to be a very interesting trade/ draft period as we may need to free up a couple more spots.!!

WERRIDEE I agree with your top 25 but would have ANB 8, Riv 9, Hunter 10, Kozzie 11 and Fritta 12.

Good luck James Jordon I had you pencilled in for a big year in 2023, just hasn’t happened for you or us this year. I hope that you get a clear run at it at the Swans Mr. Jordon.!!

Not only VFL, SANFL, WAFL, Country, Suburbia, comeon boys get that Ruck/Fwd you know that Diamond in the Rough just waiting to be plucked for the big time.👀👀❤️💙

How good do Shane and Taj look can’t believe that it is 23 years since Shane’s Brownlow how exciting was that night.❤️💙. Taj has a good look about him he debuted in a confident manner and has self belief which is so crucial at AFL level. Hope to see him play a lot more next year.!!

My greatest football supporting day in the life of my family and we had to watch it in three different households but we all turned up to watch the replay together 1st thing Sunday morning. 💕💕💕

Very happy for Jack and Billy both champion people who deserve the very best of luck and reward.👍💕

Agree BPA Blake Howes needs to get himself into the side next year, his extra height (6’3”) and quality disposal across the half backline could be a weapon for the team, he could eventually play wing / half forward if he can build his core strength and speed.

WD the media is the last thing that we need to worry about We have more important fish to fry. We Will potentially have to replace 4-6 players with an excellent draft hand and we need to replace Adem Yze plus refresh our line coaches. We have to sharpen our skills, get our troops fit and ready to fire for season 2024. The media are only interested in the next new thing and Collingwood of course.

Ps BPA I am not talking about Gus, Clayton and Tracc.!!

They are all under 6’ BPA I want a bit more taller silk in the side who can mark, kick run shepherd and provide marking targets, not much when you think about it.!!
