Round 22 Non MFC Games
If you choose to soccer it off the ground then pay the price if it goes wayward. Why should umpire have to guess the intention of the player.

Watts Dropped from Port
We may as well recruit him in 2021 for nothing and get some closure.

Anyone who had their money on a Firstmond & Ninthbourne double is halfway there.

Round 22 Non MFC Games
Pretty hard for Goody to foresee the demise of Jayden Hunt this year.

Does anyone have an approximation on how much of an offer we would have actually been able to put forward?

Round 22 Non MFC Games
Or we could play 4th placed Russian roulette in the event of our slim chances of a win over WCE. So this week you hope for a Port win over the Pies & A GWS win over Sydney. Next week: Sydney win over Hawthorn & WCE win over Brisbane. This means GWS are immoveably locked in 3rd pre-r23 and a win gets us 4th. Optional improbable extra: St K d Haw this week & Freo d Coll next week. Those upsets would also clear up the way for 4th (making Port d Coll & Syd d Haw unnecessary) *We can also get 3rd if GWS lose 0/2 and Haw, Syd & Coll all lose 1/2

Maybe we could squeeze out one of their players. Ben Jacobs is arguably the leagues best tagger and hasn't re-signed. He obviously has concussion issues right now, but we do have a good track record with Brayshaws recovery so far.

Changes v West Coat - Round 22
I'd complain a fair bit about him as a teen when he couldnt take marks, but my dad would often correct me by telling me that he was there primarily to crash packs and bring it to ground.

BRETT RATTEN
Seems like a waste of a player/coaches continuing chronology to not bump an old thread. So i google the "name and demonland" to see if one has been made before and notice it is quite interesting in hindsight and perhaps it would be of some interest to others, at least for a laugh!

I'm going to Perth ... Am I crazy?
You're a masochist DZ. That sounds like 20 minutes of my life i'd want back.

Run home to Finals - 2018
StKilda in 2012 with 123% - I looked it up after the Hawthorn/Collingwood games as I knew with our run home, it was looming. A thread was created on reddit a few days ago as the possibility has finally dawned on the entire competition.

Farewell Jesse Hogan
Ideally Hogan plays an Adel-Tom Lynch type of roaming HF. He was doing it in the first half of the year, i'm confused as to why he hasn't been doing it in the second half? Foot injury would explain why it seems

Farewell Jesse Hogan
Interesting stat about 4 goals in 5 games against top 8 teams. Not averse to exploring the Dylan Shiel idea more. Absolute gun. But he seems like captain material though so I think he'll stay.

Run home to Finals - 2018
@Rod Grinter Riot Squad Still with me on the idealism despite all evidence to the contrary? We beat WCE. Port d Coll GWS d Syd Syd d Haw GWS locked in 3rd with Coll/Haw falling out of the 4 Melb d Greater Resting Giants It will require us again tip teams who are on our hammer and could knock us out of the 8 if we lose to WCE. Apologies to @SaberFang for more naive idealism!

What is the point?
Well I reckon your parents deserve a premiership drought, perhaps grandparents have deserved all of those premierships though? Hawthorn were the least successful VFL club for their first 45 years. No finals from 1925 to 1957 I believe? Suffering repayed. I'd like some repayments on my 30 years of nothin'
