The club hasn't really got a choice ... when a player leaves the club typically find out in trade week not in the lead up to finals so they have to wait anyhow

l will be amazed if it happens more so

Spot on, have never seen such a blessed run of injuries in 2021... our biggest issue this week was the fixture ... 6 vs 8 day break returning from the NT ... expecting more pain by the end of the year given the run home

Listen, l know Luke is a great pospect etc etc. l also look at the fact that players who can't take one grab marks generally go through their careers without improving a hell of a lot. Undersized rucks that ruck most of the day and rely on their leap also struggle to compete week in week out. So l can see some positive in getting some draft picks in while clubs want ton trade on potential but obviously we have to find support for max quickly which is the challenge

Hes been shown many times already, goody even called it out in a press conference ... just doesn't want to impact each contest ... unfortunately we have to accept that he is a soft nice player with amazing talent ... and won't change

When you bottom out you have to be careful to leave enough older leaders that they can follow to understand the culture and standards. Mfc made the same mistakes. Otherwise you are waiting 5 years for the kids to have the presence and confidence to build and support it themselves which has too many risks attached to it ... guys like BB and Tarrant should still be there helping the team on field and off field

Agree, look what happened to our result's when May went all in at Entrecote. You wouldn't dismiss it as an option though within a must win game and we need a spark, likewise May moving forward

l would prefer they put their hand out and retract it just as the opposition accepts the offer ... in the end its a players decision ... l don't think it would suit viney but can see petracca doing it and still staying focused

Of course you pick him up, you would get him pretty much for free and he is an upgrade on weid and m brown ... anyone know any others mature key forwards that would come almost free and be in our starting 22? McStay is looking at $600k for god sake

Ben Brown looked sore, wouldn't surprise me if he missed this week

Have always wondered what we offered ... $400k seems unders ... where did you hear that

Thanks Poita, where did he mention that?

The only hope for me would be to play him at CHB which l think he could do and perhaps release Petty to play up forward

Another block of games ... no thanks ... he plays when in form or he gets dropped ...he's been in the system long enough. Goodies comments at the presser is pure frustration that he doesn't will himself into contests and have any physical presence ... the smalls rely on aerial contests ... wouldnt surprise me to see majak play this week

like you said why hate particular clubs when you can hate them all 😉

It's an interesting one, he has his biceps wrapped up but not his forearms. The fact the tackle comes from the side and unbalances him seems to also be an important factor. Apart from all that, Foley has zero awareness. More experienced players would have sensed the heat coming and braced themselves, diverted, or tried to fend off.

Could be that, but l was thinking it was also about worrying the opposition about whether they will need an extra tall defender should weid, tmac, jacko and BBB play

Maybe Jacko is NQR, and covid has had some lingering effects. Interesting that Goody also said in presser they hadn't decided on their best forward setup, when previously he said it involved only 2 talls without counting Jacko

This can't be right ...Roffey told us to trust her as she did similar stuff while in tennis ... well, she needs to get this up to leave some sort of legacy, otherwise move on as you told us that you have been the lead at board level to get this off the ground

That's what Yze said in the presser today ...

l thought petracca lived with kosi and another (maybe Jackson), although can't recall where that's from

tmac will be back in by seasons end ... stint in the vfl will do him the world of good

More mportantly he created hope and options for those that are follicly challenged
