PRESEASON TRAINING: Monday 10th November 2025
From the article on the club's website: "Keen onlookers at Gosch’s Paddock would see a change in jumper numbers throughout the group, but fans will have to wait until the guernsey digits are locked in following the finalisation of the full AFL list." The social media person must have been reading through this thread and wanted to put the conjecture to bed 🤣

Wildcard Round
I liked the novelty of it initially and the potential that we could sneak into a 9th or 10th spot next year but after thinking about it for a little it just seems a bizarre move. Essentially this change punishes teams finishing 7 and 8 and rewards teams finishing 9 and 10 of which the former shouldn't be punished and the latter shouldn't be rewarded. How about fix the umpiring rather than trying to invent some sort of fictitious wildcard drama.

Calling all pre-season track watchers ...
Not sure if there is a better thread for this but I walked past goschs this morning and saw 15-20 of the boys all in plain clothes doing an intense running session. was only walking past at a distance so can’t offer in depth analysis but a couple of things I noticed. Chin was moving well and fast! Max Heath is ginormous!! (Made some of the lads look like school boys)

When I said everyone looks good in a Melbourne jumper… I retract that statement.

New Rules For AFL 2026 - All SEVEN of ‘em!
I have to say, I love the ruck change. I think having to rely on wrestling in the ruck is a second rate hack move and I think our ruck stocks will only benefit from the change. Means that Grundy will actually have to make a play on the ball when we come up against sydney and I think he won't have any idea how to combat Max now.

New Rules For AFL 2026 - All SEVEN of ‘em!
5-10 minutes saved per game won't be the difference in helping thousands more fans to tune in. Those that are watching are watching and those that aren't won't just because of these changes. Most of these changes seem unnecessarily arbitrary and will only make the overall product worse given umpiring adjudication will be annoyingly inconsistent.

Letter from the CEO Post Draft
Never thought id see the day where transparency and clear communication was criticised. Our corporate leadership has been far too timid and uncommunicative for too long. We should all be very pleased with how Guerra has started especially given the trainwreck our front office has been for the last couple of years.

Welcome to Demonland: Picks 7 & 8
I'm getting WA go home ptsd. I know its not JT's drafting philosophy as he has always usually targeted the best available talent but id love to take two victorians and eliminate any go home factor.

That insta comment is either god level trolling or a very exciting clue.

Farewell Clayton Oliver
A future third and we are still paying a "sizeable" portion of clarry's salary, that is nothing but an insult. If we have to pay half his salary still, we have to be pursuing their first rounder. A future third should only maybe be accepted on the proviso that GWS take the whole contract.
