  1. The capital they were getting was in the 100's of millions and company was valued in the same range. I would suggest he has sold a few of those shares along the way when they were flying and he is still very well off after a 1 mill fine ... just me guessing
  2. Not sure this is much of a change obviously williams has been crossing over into kicking efficiency as part of his role as dev coach ... also dont recall him being a great field kick funnily enough ... but a change was needed and we dont have the off field cash to pay for extra specialists ... Maybe some these aids that Eddie raved about might help https://pinpointkickingaid.com.au/
  3. True, but we have had decades to sort it out and still have nothing to show for it. Plus Kate told us years ago now on being appointed pres that we can trust her as she is the guru on these matters, even told us she was the one to get the Australian open tennis centre development off the ground. Also told us she gave goody the belief he needed to win our mens flag and that she had worked from the start to get our AFLW flag ... we are lucky to have her
  4. Hmmm ... yet other clubs get it across the line it seems 🤔
  5. Should have played more games last year and could have helped change the dynamic of games when he went into the midfield. As to why he came over, my guess is apart from a good environment and chance to play finals, I suspect we paid him well compared to others. Preuss I suspect was the same.
  6. Whilst l doubt we are using AI we are certainly using data science and machine learning to model likely oucomes in terms of plays, player performance, team performance, opposition analysis, list management and recruiting ... seems our guy is one of the best https://www.linkedin.com/in/robert-younger-81a72a169
  7. l bought 5 × 13 Clayton Oliver memberships with a couple of games left in the season
  8. They should get Todd Patterson to do the wording for AFL delisted players as well. Its an area we could improve on
  9. The problem with that quote from Pert, is that it is a similar sentiment that was communicated by past administrations that have used it as cover for SFA progress and doesn't hold anyone to account. Daisy said it herself that the current situation made recruiting and training less than ideal ... l believe her
  10. Great work by list management to have no key players in this list
  11. Gotta be one of the better highlights packages l have seen for a 30 something pick ...
  12. He should have been given midfield time to spark us last season and particularly finals ... no review needed to work that out ... l posted on her that l told goody and richo that at pre finals training and they totally ignored me ... choco agreed with me though
  13. For Kate to appear in the media we must have won something again ... its all about you Kate, “I think I slept seven years’ worth of relief last night,” Roffey joked on SEN Breakfast. “I’ve been working closely with them for seven year" This is after taking credit for the support she gave goody after the AFL GF the year before
  14. No developing talls please, they will take 5 years before they are ready and our time is now. There are a number of tall forward and back free agents coming up. l would be going after another small forward to help kozzie and cover for the significant hole he leaves in our list if he leaves. Small forwards also contribute and develop quicker. Jacob Konstanty sounds like someone that has some goal sense and can tackle. Also has some upside given his only recent return to footy.
  15. We have an over reliance on tmac who got injured mid way, and with jacko not firing, and BBB forced to do uncustomary bullocking work, our kicks long to the wings and the forward pockets to relieve pressure and reset were ineffective. Our problems stem from this, and we need a plan b in case of injuries to talls happen again or a funamental change in approach that is less focused on talls
  16. Maybe Gina has some spare cash to splash now and can bankroll some land which seems to be the main problem ... surely we have a billionaire supporter somewhere
  17. We need more mature support alongside JVR in his first few years. If tmac or BBB dont come up we absolutely need to pick up one of around 4 or 5 good KPPs that are free agents next year. Another junior burger doesnt help us while we are contending now
  18. Your being generous ... Nik Nat isn't exactly an aerobic specimen
  19. Watts playing too early is one of the biggest mfc myths of recent times ... played vfl until warrented ... he was just not competitive and a touch soft ... note that its pretty common for pick 1 to play round 1 if injuries don't stop them but we didn't
  20. Great the club has locked away the talent and we don't have anyone significant at risk . I think the priority would be looking for KPP's. Of those listed, Ben McKay would be handy and free up Petty. Might also be able to go forward himself. Hipwood would also help by going forward allowing us to play with 3 key tall's including the resting ruck man. Himmelberg would be the other possibility and seems to have got a fair bit of the pill going by the stats. I think he can play at either end also McGovern might want to get to a team in the premiership window in his older years.
  21. I'm more hopeful than optimistic ...
  22. We need to protest on the steps of the clubs head quarters to try and get some action on this ... anyone know where that is
  23. Can we shoe horn a new item into the Special General Meeting about the constitution, in that every 3 months the club needs to provide an update to members on the training / social / admin facility and share their current plans? Not likely l know, but seriously poor to keep us all guessing. I guess if they had positive progress then they would have shared it atleast some of it
