  1. we are going to get absolutely smashed this season, call me reactionary whatever. there was not a single around the ground ball up all game, boundary throw ins sure but pure ball ups - none. and that's all we're good at...
  2. both are coming off injuries last week so it makes sense
  3. congrats to him, please perform for the first two months - my supercoach team is relying on it
  4. u clearly have never seen another post i've ever written, i don't think he's a wingman i think if he's to play it should be as a HF as he seems to have a decent sidestep and a good eye for goal but his trajectory each year seems to be out of the team for 15 weeks break in for 3 games when we are at our most injured and then return to the 2s again. i think we have better options and there are better options elsewhere in the afl playing magoos who we should look at bringing in going forward

Runner-up: Port Adelaide Wooden spoon: North Melbourne Moving up: Fremantle Set to fall: Essendon/Collingwood Brownlow Medal: Matt Rowell Coleman Medal: Charlie Dixon NAB AFL Rising Star: Matt Rowell Best new Demon: Jake Bowey Demon All Australian: Max Gawn Steve May Demon B&F: Steve May Big call: is it big to say goodwin doesn't make it past the byes and yze takes over on an interim and then gets the reigns for '22 onwards? otherwise i'll say eddie maguire admitted to rehab Ladder prediction: 1. Port Adelaide 2. Richmond 3. Brisbane 4. Geelong 5. Western Bulldogs 6. St Kilda 7. Fremantle 8. GWS ???? 9th West Coast 10th Melbourne
  6. if this doesn't call for a weridee probable 22 post then idk what ever does, i'm having withdrawals
  7. how much more time can a 4th year player have at the second level, just gotta cut losses and move on. i was really surprised at how many times he came to the bench vs doggies, definitely at least once a quarter for a good 6-8 minutes, feel like that's a lot? hibbo i think could have another year left in him after this as depth/insurance depending on what we decide on hore/lockhart who are yet to really show they can contribute constitantly at the level more than he does
  8. i didn't think coniglio seemed like a good leader, wasn't vocal unless coaches told him to be in meetings and didn't speak up like sloane did onfield, and didn't get angry enough or emotional enough when results weren't going their way. didn't appear to rally the troops enough, hopefully for their sake having polar opposite toby greene as a VC this season will help spark that side of the leadership for them.
  9. give me a spell, they're having a laugh with a mate of theirs who obviously wouldn't be on the podcast if he didn't like it. the worlds getting far too pc if u can't make a joke at ur mates expense on a podcast u run. don't like it? don't listen to it, simple really but it would be half the listening experience it is without all 3 of them taking it in turns to make light of a situation whatever it may be
  10. petty took about 8 intercept marks a game in the ressies, we can't afford to joel smith him and constantly switch him from end to end. let him perfect his defensive craft and positioning and i have no doubt he'll be a regular starter by mid season. offers more than tomlinson for sure, only a matter of time well pick mbrown ahead of tmac instead then idc just not tommy
  11. anb went to daniel in the second after he had 11 in the first and had a real impact tbf to him both ways
  12. the coaches wont do it because it's a tough decision and they seem to have a problem making those and seem to have forgotten that mcdonald was on the trade table and so so average last year but its blatantly obvious that he doesn't do enough to impact games ever and just gets a pass coz he lost some weight
  13. i'd take two majak quarters before i take 2 weeks of tmac's
  14. the player is forced to sit out 12 days anyway so they're gonna want to at least get another 30 minutes of football in because they know they are going to miss next week regardless of how they feel so it is no incentive at all to the concussed player.
  15. i think it's a bad idea. what makes a concussion so much more important than an acl or a shoulder or hammy that it requires a 23rd man. same deal with any other injury imo if u get a concussion bad luck ur out for the game and u can't be replaced otherwise replace all injuries and if thats the case it should only be valid for injuries in the first quarter because after that it is a big difference having an extra set of wheels just join in the action
  16. *he's the only one who had a contract that was still running
  17. + taj woewodin ie eligable for us as F/S and also in someone else's academy if i'm not mistaken?
  18. can't wait to see taj woewodin take his dads 22 next year and deak to move back to 39 from jetta ;)
  19. he played 7 games for the season... we didnt need him to get where we got to especially with the strength of our mids and the fact we would have known we had eyes on two inside mids at the draft (sparrow+jordon) with lewis and jones still in there too and yes i'm so glad we did it with kent and hannan and wish we'd done it with hunt too when the dons seemed keen pre signing nick hind
  20. you've basically just descibed the perfect model for a near side winger, the fat side where all the space is you have ur speed, ur bounce, ur engine working up and back but near side where the ball spends most of the time you want a exactly what you descirbed. thats why we've tried jones, vanders, harmes coz theyre bigger bodies. i completely agree re the SSP situation and holding onto blokes too long. Hunt will be a 9 year servant of our club when hes next OOC! for what? 6 good games? its pathetic and vandenberg is just an injury prone meatball who has never displayed any level of actual footballing ability or ability to accumulate possessions as a midfielder and he's not a goalkicker so what is he? this years OOC group contain our entire 2018 draft neg sparrow but include baker who have a combined 15 games. i'd love to know how that stacks up across the competition i can't imagine it's too healthy from 4 players. u can hardly call them young kids anymore they should be afl standard/regular contributors but they're not
  21. i did think we could do with an extra kit man when i was down at training earlier this week, the last bloke was getting on in age just a tad
  22. anb came to the bench an awful lot considering he's such an "aerobic beast" like at least 6 mins a quarter except bowey is training and required as a defender and can't use his elite ball and foot skills in the fp like he can coming out of D50
  23. ok well yes and i get inside types take longer to develop and we've rotated a lot of smaller types off our list in the last two years and at the time i didnt see an issue with either selection, but it's always good to put the hindsight glasses on sometimes
