Spot on, same bloke went with the Goodwin resignation story... trying to make a name for himself. Nothing story.

With a short turnaround from the Richmond game to the Essendon game I would think making sure we have a large fit squad is part of the clubs plan hence so many not playing at Casey today.

Rawlings going to Casey could have something to do with our backline underperforming...

Jetta needs to lift, down on form all year IMO, we need more impact from him.

I’ve never disliked a player like I do Bugg, he has very little skill and poor decision making, he had a rare good outing last week, he is inconsistent and not up to the level required.

Pedo playing???

Wagner building confidence and performing well, great to see. Lever - Will improve. ANB & Harmes two of my favourite’s - need to lift Hogan, Gawn, Oliver, Trac - Elite!

Evenly matched teams imo, Best Team we’ve had on the park round 1 for a long time ??

Viney / Dangerfield TMAC / Henderson still an even playing field for round 1. Get well soon boys.

The most spineless leader this competition has ever seen.

Agree with this. Bugg a vfl player, no skill Hannan, Trac, Brayshaw the positives. Stretch tried hard but not sure he’s in the best 22. Overall first qtr pressure was great, dropped off after qtr time, need to keep that going for longer.

Went to the game last night, thought it was much better live than watching it on tv. Harmes & Melksham Best players for mine, think Harmes is set for a big year. Tommy Mac will have a great year up forward also. Trac has set himself for a good season. Bugg & Stretch are not in the best 22.

I don’t, he is still connected within the Club and his “mail” is generally pretty good...

Just left training, was there for 90 mins, Petracca was a standout for mine, strong, great skills, moving well set for a big year. Gawn looks great, running well. Lever, taller and leaner than I thought. New draftees fitting in well. Salem strong in running also.

Vanders looking very under done.. rest of the boys in great shape.

If it means giving up our 2 home games interstate I would be all for it, not the worst idea I’ve heard...

The boy is looking fit, it will come back to bite at some stage, never forget the night Farmer kicked a goal after the siren to beat us when he moved to Freo, heart breaking...

Have you watched him play?

He interviewed the morning after the b&f, was still getting over all the frothies from the night before probably

Who is your source? That sounds like a whole lot of dribble to me...

Dreaming, not a chance in hell the dogs would trade him

To become successful we need to become ruthless, this club has not been ruthless or successful for a long time now, hard desicions need to be made, trading Watts sends a message to the playing group, train hard & play hard or your not safe. I'll back Goodwin, Viney, Mahoney, McCarthey and co any day over any of their predecessors that go a long way back...

Good mail ?

Stevo reporting Adam Saad from Gold Coast wants to return to VIC... linked to Carlton

Good post, shows that we are not that far away IMO, the Anzac eve game earlier in the year was finals like and we controlled the game for the first 3 quarters.
