Complaining about unnecessary bumping of threads only leads to more bumping of threads. We're in a vicious cycle

Farewell Sam Frost
I really hope we give a lifeline to Tye Vickery & Jack Fitzpatrick in the offseason then

Brendan McCartney on SEN
I don't think he posts now that Lewis has retired.

Josh Mahoney in the Media
"“We’re going into trade period and if it can work out that we can get both Ed and Adam, we think we would’ve done pretty well.” Well there you go. Time to log off until march....

Jack Newnes
The article said that, but playing 123 games in a row up until round 15 this year seems to point to the opposite - A lot of faith. Wasn't Richo sacked around that time as well?

Salary cap means what?

Splitting Draft Pick 3
We have secret info that picks 3-15 is an even talentpool and no other club knows it?♂️

Joe Daniher
Absolutely love Sam Reid providing a genuine target. But I reckon they'd be crazy to let him go and have Buddy/Daniher with their injury histories. Reid might be the safe bet with Buddy sporadically playing 5-10 games each year.

Jack Newnes
May as well repost this article that came out after 10 or so rounds this year. https://www.zerohanger.com/best-and-worst-kicks-inside-50-unveiled-29660/ Best Kicks Inside 50 1. Dayne Zorko (Brisbane Lions): 43 kicks — 55.8 per cent retention rate 2. Jack Gunston (Hawthorn): 27 kicks — 55.6 per cent retention rate 3. Jack Newnes (St Kilda): 29 kicks — 48.3 per cent retention rate 4. Bradley Hill (Fremantle): 27 kicks — 48.1 per cent retention rate 5. Scott Pendlebury (Collingwood): 46 kicks — 47.8 per cent retention rate Worst Kicks Inside 50 1. Clayton Oliver (Melbourne): 45 kicks — 8.9 per cent retention rate 2. Rory Sloane (Adelaide): 31 kicks — 12.9 per cent retention rate 3. Ed Langdon (Fremantle): 30 kicks — 16.7 per cent retention rate 4. Hugh McCluggage (Brisbane Lions): 34 kicks — 17.6 per cent retention rate 5. Travis Boak (Port Adelaide): 38 kicks — 18.4 per cent retention rate -- Of course the catch is he's averaged 16 and 15 pos the past 2 years, but 22-23 back in 2014-2017. So you'd hope that he's seeking to refresh his career, rather than just do a deal for 3 years and fade into retirement.

Our Indigenous Recruiting
We should feed JKH more pies and turn him into a Dean Rioli.

Gaff or Andrew Brayshaw Rumour
Didn't make it to us? We chose Spargo, Fritsch & Petty before him. He made it to us, we chose not to pick him. Furthermore, we took Baker at 48, so it gives some clue into the mindset of our club 2 years ago, that we valued outside speed as a 4th priority with only a late pick. Edit: It might work out great though if the opportune pick of Petty at 38 becomes a mainstay and we address speed deficiencies elsewhere.

When big clubs stop being big clubs
You clearly are not a part of the planned DEMONLAND.COM BOARD SPILL at the MFC next year if we're down the bottom.

Real interest at what pick?

2019 - thank god it’s over!!!
Got the poor ending it deserved i suppose. The year's high was Jordan Lewis kicking a soccer goal on the goal-line after bodying his opponent and Preuss kicking 2 out of the ruck against Sydney. And the GWS win over Brisbane & Collingwood.

WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ADAM TOMLINSON
The player i'd most liken him to is a calf-injury stricken hobbling Phil Davis but with a blonde crew cut in place of a manbun

Ben King
Only saw the heat but Frost looked stuffed, Ben King looked like he hadn't broken out of stride. Was a lock for the gf sprint victory after seeing that.

Watching Ben King easily burn off Frost...

Andrew Gaff
Dunno about interesting anymore. Bit of a time-sink these 100 page Kelly, Gaff, Whitfield and wait for it.. Prestia pipedreams of the past few years that never went anywhere.

Josh Jenkins
One thing unmentioned is his debut in 2012 at the age of 23. So It's not as if he's been in the system for that long. Perhaps that could help longevity re risk of slow down. We just lost a 28 year old KPF just above peak age, that had only been in the system for 2 years. So it's fickle as to who can impact at what age, who can have a prolonged career and who can't. A proven track record of games played per season, goals kicked and a lack of injury history could work in his favor, even for a 31 year old next season.

Brodie Kemp (drafted by Carlton)
Splitting the pick and getting nobody we wanted. The darkest timeline
