Please don't give me PTSD

I thought the same the instant Cody Weightman kicked that goal, a DL thread will pop up/be revived discussing taking Kosi instead. Sure enough!

Rodney Grinder is about as porn star a name as you can get. Not too sure about compiling lists of people that disagree with me however. It's a bit deestopian

We should be able to play 3 talls, especially now with our outside run and wing coverage. If we'd done it in past years, we'd be absolute fodder on the rebound. WCE have been doing it for years, so why not us? Harris Andrews is an absolute lock to shutdown Weid or TMac, with all due respect. He's the best defender in the game and the best Luke Hodge has ever played with. It would be better to have a decoy/negating forward on him running him out of our forward 50 or just playing a sacrificial role for the other two talls to spread and provide leads and a contest away from his influence.

Yup, and the arrogance too. His front on spoil to Luke Parker's face and flop to the push in response, sealed the deal for my distaste. At one point when he was run down in a tackle, the commentator said something to the effect of the whole footy world not wanting him to be tackled there, and to have a shot on goal, P*** off. I have a feeling I'm going to be cursing under my breath for a decade while he walks up to podiums and accepts medals.

Daniher is more likely to kick 4.6 than 0.6 if we're banging it inside 50 more than our opposition for 22 rounds a year

This comment has CREAM DRIPPING OFF OF IT

Does a twice weekly podcast with Rohan Connolly, it's one of the better ones imo https://footyology.com.au/category/footyology-podcast/

Hope Mark Fine enjoyed that one. He has been venomous towards us, and gloatingly upbeat about the Saints, Justifiably so. But I do detect a bit of spitefulness towards the Dees (and thus the fans too) with a touch of over competitivness in the premiership drought club. Hate up Mark, not sideways!

Social media gives you the dopamine hit. Our dopey players on the other hand give us very little reward each week!

I can imagine a Chinese only vaccine with Gil striking a deal to move all finals clubs to a Wuhan hub and get the vaccine. Icing on the 2020 cake Luckily we'll miss finals and not experience the side effects

Dawks Vs Filth. The most revolting of matchups. A definite skip.

And it will free up Tomlinson to play solely on the wing alongside Baker ?

Is Peter the Wright guy? I say it with a heavy heart

He has plenty of chance at redemption, he'll just have nobody to kick it to up forward as the cash we've splurged on him wasn't used to entice any marking target last year, and might'nt this year. And these conversations have been had on this forum for 10 months, not just after 2 bad games.

500k for 3 years, I accept. You take a risk, fill a position in need of urgent attention for the club. But how can he get a 4th and 5th year without any performance based trigger clause. He's not a very good player or has any potential to be one. He's serviceable and could even fall into permanent depth within a couple of years if other players on list develop or trades/recruits come in with a better burst of speed and skill that take that wing position. Then there's a 2 or 3 years x500k hole in the cap.

365k a year according to fox footy. That's a bit far off.

But wouldn't 3 years also be the median contract length. Tying up 2.5 mil over 5 years for a player that is currently (as of this week) depth doesn't seem wise.

And leaving aside Hill @Hogan2014, we could've outbid the Dogs and got Josh Bruce with that spare change. And thrown a cheap contract at Newnes and had him Baker, Salem or ANB compete for that wing spot for a year. Can't be any worse than Tomlinson

According to the age: "The unrestricted free agent has been signed by the Demons on a five-year deal worth $500,000 a year." Frakking Christ

What's he on a year again for the 4 year contract? Would've been better to throw that money on the pile that we surely had to have initiatially offered Brad Hill.

I've got video evidence of a dance clique at the MFC, and it's not pretty.

Fagan plays Hipwood. He hardly contributes from week to week and pops up occasionally with a brilliant quarter. also a player who had a very good patch of form in his first or 2nd year, like Weid. Hipwood is getting experience, building a tank, learning what works and doesn't, by being played week to week. Weid is in the same boat and should be played all year for development.
