Just finished watching. I was confident we'd win today and so were the players. Was North Melbourne, now Essendon. Weirdos

For those in SA, I'd really recommend getting along to gather sounds tomorrow. Bad//Dreems are headlining and it's their final run of shows before taking an indefinite hiatus. Great Australian rock and roll band.

Is this conversation relephant to the thread?

It would sound like a Jive Bunny remix from outside they're scoring so fast. To those who are too young to know what Jive Bunny is, look it up, you'll really love it 🤮

Are they playing 12 a side? This is insane scoring

Geez Tex, I think you've got a bit of milk in your mo

Yep and everyone knows how Ticketmaster doesn't work. Shameful and frustrating service to use.

Would love to know the fors and against for ump 22 - Williamson over the last 5 years for our games

Yeah, we seem really fit. We're running games out incredibly well. Minimal injuries and we're in with a shot with the way we're playing.

Yeah. We're in for a wonderful ride watching Koz bring Latrelle into the game. It's so cool to watch. Especially mature age recruits breaking through. Can't guarantee he's there yet, but you just feel the two of them together could be just dynamite. I feel like Lindsay is slowly but surely turning into our new Gus for us too. He's been a really a really slow starter, but there's something very "brick wall" about him that makes me happy he's just growing in this team. Maxy really highlighted that mid tier of players need to stand up this year and it's happening. So good to see the freedom and flow in our game now. A big thanks to our coaches for enabling this. Lastly, Greard Healy - Kozzy Pickett needs to learn how to run defensively - pffft gagfff And ump22 - Nathan Williamson - did you get overruled by a boundary ump late in the game? Trying to get Goldy back in it with that oof call? Any data nerds out there that can work out the frees for and against Melbourne for our games he officiates? Might have to watch the last quarter again. Our defensive pressure through the middle was just a joy to watch Go Dees Ooh and Salem, it was Christian's best game in quite a while and he's a gun for us off half back when he's firing

I guess the risk is (and it seems like what might have happened) that someone can easily record a conversation out of camera shot. That's not the end of the world if the discussions aren't sensitive. I suspect the whole meet and greet was probably a really good idea to do. As mentioned above, families and partners are critical to a players performance in lots of ways. Maybe the meeting was a good idea until someone went down a rabbit hole instead of saying "we just can't discuss this due to privacy reasons" If you've got something delicate to discuss, you'd do it just with your employees / players and then do it really carefully in a controlled environment. Anyways, yes it's a lot of speculation about how it went down and exactly what was said. I have the feeling the intent and idea was great, somehow they just went into a discussion they shouldn't have had in that forum.

This is the thing, on reflection, it seems so unbelievably loose that there must be another context to this story. It seems so crazy. If it's BS, then Morris should be held to account. (I know he won't) Just when I thought we had a new beginning and a fresh start to our culture, this looks really ominous.

If these words are true, it's damming and Richo should go. I understand the intent but the breach of privacy for a very sensitive matter like this is truly horrible. You could say there are "snakes" at the club but really? Opening this sort of stuff up to such a wide group seems completely mad. What did they think would happen?

Hopefully. If it is, sounds like they've dragged her through an arduous process. Anyways. Yes fingers crossed.

Righto then. New appointment of AFLW GM which sounds good and..... Thanks to Shae Sloane for overseeing the role.
