Not surprised at all right now. Suns were 2nd all season with that game in hand. Fluffed one game to make top 4 against a rival who have the wood on them. THey've essentially got a free hit in this finals series. Zero pressure to do anything and they've probably got the best coach of the lot. They might go on a run and hopefully play Pies and pull off the greatest moment of the season. Dont care about the Grand Final after that haha Freo really resemble their coach, way too in their head to stand up in September. Nerves, pressure. Playing too slow.

Actually im with PF: WE are to blame for giving the Pies 1 game in 27 days and an MCG prelim loss to the Mighty Gold Coast Suns 🤞

Indeed. GIANTS will smack them if they play that safe and timid footy next week.

Spear tackled him? Is that a reportable offense? Doesn't matter, commentators didnt pick it up.

Not sure I'm ready to sign up for the 13 year Ken Hinkley vic media softball treatment; close enough is good enough. Prelims be damned!

And play on long enoughy that we can hopefully give him the flag send-off, that other (annoying) clubs have given their leaders

Lever and/or May going, Tracc staying or leaving and Gus retired... Interestingly All of the future captain candidates mentioned over the years Goes to show how massive a person and leader Gawny is and has been. Respect to Jack Viney too who's been there with him and Jonesy through the entire ride Gawn really is the bridge connecting the past generation to our next. I can see our next captain being one of our young guns in 2027/28 Go Dees!

And Peter Jackson

I dunno. I reckon Caro would make a fantastic defensive coach with her miserliness

We being coached by On The Couch next year?

Isn't that what this forum is all about? This is where all the trade and draft gurus congregate for the next month, in their thousands!

Given Harley Reid extended, it might be worth reiterating that Jake Nial said yesterday they were aggressively pursuing him and lurking around the Petracca situation. Will the Hawks now shift their focus? "Give it to Butters"

Cam Bruce has gone completely mad

Jake Nial just mentioned on the Real Footy Pod, that: "Hawthorn are one of the clubs thats most aggressive around Harley Reid and they're also lurking around the Christian Petracca situation"

Can we hold off and package him up for a Jayden Hunt Reunion tour!? He's exactly what North Melbourne need, and Clarko is exactly what Steven May needs! Can we get a pick?!

They'll choke in a fortnight. Sadly. Haven't had enough time to adapt to not having one of their best players out there

Cuckingwood

Could've opened 3 months ago

Does this rule Steven King out of head coach contention?

They'll probably drop one of their home finals, and we'll end up with the usual suspects in the GF. Not getting any hopes up!

Did you hear the barb she made? That Simpson and Longmire had pulled out because it wasn't a very good job cue laughter from other hosts. She's clearly personally invested in seeing that Buckley coaches Tasmania instead, by muckraking and putting down our club and the coaching position. For what reason? I don't know, But she's like a dog with a bone when she wants something to happen.

He ends it with: "And this is just a personal opinion, but if he were to declare himself available to coach in 2026, then Melbourne would hire him."

Kicks goals, takes marks, strong 194cm build. Gee I wonder where on the field we can experiment him next year. .

We couldn't create a seperate position for him? Friendship Coordinator?

Nah this has Carlton written all over it
