Said Rivers was 11th ranked played on their 100X scale of players playing above expectation. And he's interested to see what we do with the "Rivers magnet" in the next two weeks and finals "No better kick in the competition in the last 6 weeks" "Kicking 20% above expectation" "We need to see if Melbourne can inject him into the game even more so, as he's having such an a significant impact. When he wins it, and when he wins it back, he's top 10 for impact" "Healy: Move him into the middle?" "Hoyne: No, but Id move him higher up the ground, get him involved a little bit more, that would be interesting." But he's also cautious about making a change late in the season

OK, but where's the rumour?

Silver lining for a Freo win next week v Port, will be us back in the top 2. If the Pies also get it done. Edit: I mean this slightly sarcastically. Massive silver lining lol

I wonder how many games LJ played as the 2nd tall? I recall it happening pre-Ben Brown, and he did not make any impact at all. So it's no wonder Grundy would be having the same sort of impact, if you ask him to play that role. Comparing 2021, JVR=TMAC, BB=Petty/____, LJ=Grundy, Fritsch=Melk I think id like us to go with a Fritsch & Melksham as mid-sized talls running around next to JVR, when Fritsch is ready. I know its late in the season to be experimenting but Fritsch comes straight back in anyway.

How many effective tall forwards do the Pies have? Plenty of ways to skin a cat. Get on board ffs. Its not our year... until we win the QF and suddenly it might just be again?

Because he stabs at it and always finds the loose man, always has. Lovely kick of the ball, just don't ask him to kick a long high 50 metre drop punt. Anyway, you win some, you lose some.

Charlie Curnow? More like Charlie Curnever!

I said that at half time in the Geel v Port MCG semi final, with Port 5 goals in front... in 2013

Sounds amazing tbh. But might struggle to make it beyond a year when the viewership is so low and niche I know it was lacking in statistical analysis and clips, but the Thursday 1hr show 'League Teams' was a pretty decent discussion of each match pre round. No fluff. Back in the Paul Roos Gerard Healy days. You just had to put up with Brereton or Brad Johnson, but at least they all gave each match the time and dedicated discussion it deserved.

Speaking of hand and foot injuries, and a resurrection for the finals The 2nd coming of Clarry at FF BANG. BANG BANG BANG

Tim 'Matt Priddis' Taranto.

Stop scaring everybody!

Equate it with the hatred for Boomer, the Kangas and their win streak over us and how it's transitioned to "Oh you still exist?"

Who even has the time anymore to think about such an irrelevant club, let alone want them to lose, draw or win? They're just a speck of dust on our shoes nowadays. A team whose weekly fixture and glanced at result at the end of the round gets the mildest 'who cares' non-reaction if there ever was one. A club that deserves only 2-4 hours of my viewing time per year, depending on how the afl fixtures us. 🍷

Flagpies was actually short for Flagellatedpies

That settles it. You can't have Flyin' Ryan and Rocketing Reid going up for the same mark every time. It would be chaos. Better trade that pick and be done with it.

With Reid, Tracc, Viney, Sparrow, Oliver, Gawn & Grundy bullocking through the centre, we won't need a forward line. /sarcasm

The more I see, the less likely I feel like we can get this done.

If I'm stkilda I'm wanting Carlton to make the contract offer a 800k size one to Gresham to take it to tier 1, so my compo will be straight after my first round pick at what I think will be pick around pick 9 or 10. Might be the condition that they don't match, as he's RESTRICTED FA Then I'm offering those two picks and next year's 1st for Reid in the Reid-stakes. LOL. Bringing this thread back on topic people!!!!

Restricted free agent, I think Demon Disciple was saying if they match the contract offer and then we have to pay up. Definitely not worth a first round pick that I was replying to.

Yes. It's confirmed.

Love to see them upset the Pies in a prelim though, they will have spent all their tickets just to do that. Like in 2019. Would be a grand final opponent we could kick 20+ goals on.

Unless it's a prelim

I haven't watched any GCS games this year, how has he been tracking? Mentions he has been playing defence. Is he someone we can lure back into Victoria after May retires, or after Max retires in 2-4 years? given he was our NGA academy player we lost. AFL Rising Star Round 20: Mac Andrew
