AFLW: Rd 9 vs FNQ Hawks
How can someone stripping the ball out of Hanks hands be an incorrect disposal free kick? Anyways, mids going ok but our forwards and backs seem to be walking around the packs a little too much.

AFLW: Rd 9 vs FNQ Hawks
This is the most bogan commentary team I've ever heard. They should be in a tri coloured Commodore commentary car on the hill. One of the women just said that "hawthorn play some of the funest footy she's seen"

AFLW: Rd 9 vs FNQ Hawks
Really looking forward to this one. If we keep tackling with the ferocity we've shown of late, we should win this. Pedal to the metal girls

AFLW: Rd 08 vs Richmond
I think that relentless tackling and pressure is what has turned things around for us. The key personnel coming back is helping now for sure but 4 weeks ago our stocks were decimated but we just seemed to switch on with the agression. It's been quite the transformation. We've been led by Macca and Goldy this year. They are true competitive animals and I love watching them. Hanks and Bannon were way off to start the season and their lift in form in recent weeks has really helped us turn things around. A big shout out to Gall too. She really struggled to hold a mark early in the season but she is just clunking everyhting now. Gall, Zanker, Campbell and Bannon are quite a combo now. It's going to be really hard to sneak in. As everyone has said, the fixturing just sucks. It looks like one of the in form teams in the comp is going to miss out. But...every week has been a final for us and every goal helps. I'm loving this demon resurrection! Very proud of Mick and the team. I still think he should be helping the blokes through the AFLW season. Go Dees.

AFLW: 2024 Fixture
Considering the injuries we've suffered and the BS fixture we've been handed and the start we've had. Sneaking into the finals would be an incredible achievement. They've really transformed with their tackling pressure and run in the last 3 weeks. Go Dee's, you can do it.

Yeah but he gets to contemplate how much they want him while enjoying the solitude on his farm.

Club in crisis - Media pile on - August 2024
That is such a great line by Scott. "It wasn't a big issue in our minds" I guess players get carted unconcious out of nightclubs all the time

I can't help but feel that most of this rubbish from both Tracc and Clayton's fiascos has been stirred up by their player management group. I.e. same company.

I'm with you Jaded. What does this do for Clarry's mindset and wellbeing. He's knuckled down and honoured his commitment all year by most reports. He's fallen off the wagon once at the Brownlow by the sounds of it. Don't think he'd be the first player to go on a bender at the Brownlow. It's a two way street. We now have two of our best who don't want to be here. Who the hell is leaking all this stuff? It's white anting the club big time.

I think Max pretty much is our president already. He's the bloke who keeps getting shoved in front of the cameras and mics to try and speak with eloquence and integrity. I don't know how he does it. I wouldn't blink an eye if he turns to a pile of dust in 2025 from the load he has carried for us over the last year or so.

A move to Tassie is looking good. AFL Bail out (again) - Tick Training Base - Tick Our own home ground - Tick Government and AFL bankrolling - Tick New Board and Footy Department - Tick Sweet Draft picks - Tick Media Hype and AFL Support - Tick It's not a long flight 😁 (Just Joking, kinda)

You'd wonder if Roos would have managed it differently. He had the ultimatum 12 months ago and despite some injuries and fitness problems, by all accounts was putting his head down and doing his best. Then bang, he's out. I mentioned it a hundred pages ago, but look at Brisbane. In complete dissaray at the start of the season with infighting between players and partners after the vegas trip and then Fagan and the FD seemed to straighten it out and they win a flag. I betchya he was not their mate. I am going to miss watching him play for the Dees and loathe watching him come good for the cats. The FD department at Jeelong must have complete faith in their coaches to bring Smith and Oliver in. They must truly believe in their systems to get these guys to knuckle down when it's required. Clarry was a pure joy to watch when he was on song. Just lightening fast. Quite the tragedy for our club. Relying on high draft picks to save our club is a farce. I'm feeling very Neeldy.

There might be another thread on this. But... Here's some more poo splatting on the fan. Anyone got more insight on his role at the club? https://7news.com.au/sport/afl/key-leader-quits-melbourne-as-clayton-oliver-sold-the-farm-by-geelong-c-16257631
