  1. How are all the panic merchants who assured us he was on the way out doing today?
  2. We saved our absolute best for September last year. Why can't we do that again this year?
  3. I fully expect us to start hitting our straps and getting back to our best footy starting very soon. We all but have our best 22 on the park now excluding Tmac. Hopefuly it starts on Saturday. I think its very likely we've gone through some sort of uplift in training loads at some point recently, and it will serve us well this September as it did last year.
  4. May has been fine. Salem and Gawn definitely
  5. Might be time to accept that Goody does not share your view of significantly changing our forward structure pre finals
  6. Not sure why people have an issue with Tommo out. He played very well last week but Petty is an upgrade no matter what way you look at it.
  7. Don't think this would get in the way of someone's career aspirations to be a senior coach ...
  8. Took the 4 in a trot really. Let’s build on it boys
  9. I don’t get why people think Gus is out the door? What is that based on? Purely a delayed contract negotiation or am I missing something?
  10. This is such a horrible take …
  11. Either you’re right, or a professional football department that took us to a flag last year is ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
  12. I’m not sure you understand the difference between VFL and AFL.
  13. Time for DL to accept the fact we won’t see JVR until next year. And rightfully so. The age of blooding promising young forwards in important games died with Jack Watts. JVR will not solve the issues we have up forward right now. The best we can hope for is that he keeps developing at his current trajectory. And next year he will play a big part in our campaign if he does.
  14. 🤦‍♂️
  15. Fight amongst yourself all you like, there’s no way our club touches him with a ten foot pole. Culture is more important than short term success, believe it or not. Our club has rich ties with the indigenous community. Bringing in Walker for a few short years would be an insult to indigenous players past and present. Would be absolutely astonished if the board and Goodwin would do this. I’d rather back JVR in for the short term than bringing a player that says the things Tex has said in recent history.
  16. Best thing I’ve read on DL in a long time. Bravo
  17. As an engineer, I believe if it ain't broke, it doesn't have enough features yet
  18. Who cares, we won
  19. 900k is far from unders on a 7 year contract
  20. Whilst I found that interesting too, nothing beats the noise of a big crowd
  21. Yeah I wish they’d leave the music out too
  22. The all the goals video this week is excellent viewing
  23. Perhaps your over estimating the analytical abilities of those you’ve mentioned
