A million times, go [censored] yourself May

I've missed you so so much Clarry <3

As a tasweigan demonlander desperate for the Devils to happen, the public transport argument is mute IMO. The Hobart infrastructure is poor everywhere when strained. It was chosen to be in Macq Point because at least the city can accommodate sufficent parking within a walking distance, supported by existing amenities which would be activated en masse pre and post game. Nowhere else can do that... at least in a sustainable way, supporting a positive commuter experience on match day. As for the Domain, well, I suppose that could work, but that's not what has been put forward, so also mute to discuss. I also think the roof concerns for cricket (i.e. shadow) will be addressed, purely because there surely has to be a sensible engineering solution to prevent the shadow impacting upon the pitch. I have no reputable source for that belief, however. We will know once and for all whether the stadium will be built in June, so fingers crossed for a positive outcome.

Love that. A huge endorsement on Goodwin as a person too.

If there were a mid season trade period, it'd be interesting if both clubs would pull that trigger.

Clarry isn't operating at his best. But... he's still probably our 2nd best mid this year yeah? And the only way is up. I want to be on the right side of history, and be part of the group never once wanting him traded. He's an absolute superstar who just hasn't been fit for 2 years.

What a joke. Dominate the game and can't execute.

Tholstrup had a moment early in the game where he was loading up to blaze at a goal, stopped mid kick, and passed it instead to someone in a better position, which led to a goal (i think trac?). Clearly listening to the coaches. Play him all year.

Great win! Much improved performance across so many facets. Although I think Fullarton would shirk a contest with Josh Schache

Has to be Fullarton out for Sharp, I'm not convinced he's adding anything to us.

Never doubt a champion ;)

Fullarton really really needs to contest a lot better than he has been.

Absolutely all of this is awful to watch. Something has to change.

"Hoh boy, I've got the ball! I'm going to forget our past 36 months of footy and just KICK IT forward without looking where I'm kicking it!"

How can you accept a pay cheque for halfa million dollars a year, then proceed to miss simple set shots? Absolute mercenaries this lot.

Unwatchable. Frankly insulted that you can be paid hundreds of thousands to not be able to hit simple targets. For shame.

That goal from Windsor was a delight to the eyes btw

curious on the logic of subbing off Howes when we have JVR, Johnson and Jefferson out there in bucketing rain

Lindsay is incredibly composed. Very impressed!

I don't think Jefferson is being set-up for success in this match, given form had just been OK, and its in the wet. Likely red vest IMO- but go well son.

Relieved Henderson is playing :D Very exciting!

If Greens legacy is nothing else, keeping Clayton Oliver will be a great one.

I too share the concerns of playing our two best - and natural - wingers out of position. It makes me uncomfortable. Or conversely, I'm always happier seeing Windsor and Langdon on the team sheet as wingers.

Hopefully he follows the Petracca pathway, for his sake.

Excited for the podcast return! The Dees have spoken about reducing the contact time with the club since the review last season, hoping to cultivate a more positive perception about time spent at the club and foster trust in how the players prepare for training and what I assume will be game day performance. This seems aligned with Goodwins reflections about the toll the club took on him in 2024 and the distractions of the myriad of off field issues we experienced. I've received these updates as welcome news that the club has authentically taken on board the feedback from the review, and is seeking an equal parts coach and player informed approach to 2025. I'm interested whether the podcast team shares these views, or otherwise have their own on this matter. Thank you for your tireless work.
