  1. I think Lever's knee injury from the last quarter is worse than what we realise. Hope it is not the worst news.
  2. Bit of alliteration too. Credit to him.
  3. His Open Mike episode is terrific. So honest. Rest in peace.

    Jared Rivers is the Backline coach at the Saints
  5. 29th July, 2013, Peter Jackson appeared on "On the Couch". Interview is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bu0NIDU-aC0 Jackson was one of, if not the best appointment the club has had this century. He stated on the program, that at times "the club's gone back to too many people who have got red and blue...I think sometimes we don't have a propensity in this club to bring in the best from outside". He then spruiked the culture and winning environments at clubs like Sydney and Geelong. After that interview he went on to appoint a number of people within the football department from those cultures. Paul Roos, George Stone, Ben Mathews, Brett Allison, Brendan McCartney, Matthew Egan and Shannon Byrnes. Industry best appointments. My worry is that we are now moving away from appointing the best, and reverting to this propensity of former MFC people. Brad Green - President Nathan Jones - Midfield coach Mark Jamar - Ruck coach Alastair Nicholson - rumoured as next CEO Steven Smith - rumoured as next President Luke Beveridge - rumoured as possible next coach These people may very well be the best options, and that it's just a coincidence that they have had a MFC involvement before,I don't know from afar. But I just hope we are not reverting back to what we were before Jackson. To be a high quality and successful club, you need the best people in the industry, and I hope we are going after them regardless of whether they have red and blue in them or not.
  6. North only gave up pick 44 for Luke Parker and Konstanty (who was a pick 20). I'd rather Viney than pick 44. In saying that, he's got to be better. It's not like some of his kicks were under pressure. Even when he has time and space, his kicks inside 50 are terrible.
  7. Jack Viney is the worst kick inside 50 in the comp. We should've let him go to North. Charlie Spargo is atrocious. Running back into a pack and hand balling over his head. Jesus.
  8. Aidan Johnson. Henderson and Johnson were teammates at Werribee.

    Who will Henderson pick? Us or the Eagles? Late twist as second club joins chase for VFL star
  10. I actually think it was Windsor who Martin says looked 12. Youtube link to clip is here: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/YiOSS25FbPo
  11. Did Lindsay faint? Is that why at the end of the vid they were saying Rick Lever 'has been there'?
  12. Tholstrup has been rocking the #12 at training
  13. Haven't we already got a similar player with Jake Bowey?
  14. If he does intend to request a trade, I don't think the request would come before the Best & Fairest. His management wouldn't put Kozzy in an awkward situation like that.

    The Storm are in the NRL grand final on Sunday. Anyone else want to switch codes?
