I know it’s a bit sacrilegious to say but 90s hardcore never really captivated me - yet I love bands that would idled them like Terror, comeback kid, blacklisted, have heart etc

Used to hate saying ‘hardcore’ to normal people. At least you have something to look forward to after this [censored] season

I like having to put it like "sing" when talking to the mainstream.. Never really dipped my toes into the black metal scene. On the heavy scale of things stopped around Botch/Converge/Darkest Hour. Here is my song of the week, from Pup who I saw last week.

The conversation around this has been drawn out and fixated on peripheral issues, rather than confronting what actually occurred.

Being a bad fella and not going tonight - last week was my last game for the season. will watch from the couch at home in the absence of 50,000 ghouls

Watched the last few minutes standing up behind my couch, was a wreck, what a time. Love you demons

At least it's consistent with previous incidents of the same nature..

Re; Tholstrop, We took him at #13 but not many have really kicked on yet in this #13-#45 bracket. Darcy Wilson went at #19 and he's in and out. Stand outs probably Logan Morris at #31 and then Shaun Mannagh at #37. Seemingly lots of TBC in that draft.

Didn't know how to 'react' as not trying to besmirch him or his retirement, shame it didnt work out this time with cursed run of injuries. Great bloke though by all accounts, lived his dream.

It's still 4-5 games though, the penalties have been consistent here, don't think it should be reduced because its at the pointy end of the season. The slurs are abhorrent but also think first time suspensions for this should be a less games, but it's too late for that now.

But he also has more career behinds than goals.

Think it's more Saints throwing $2m at NWM, $1.7m at TDK, $800K at Leek Aleer (same wage as Cal Wilkie) - and giving unders to some other players.

Didnt want to start a new thread, but some trade ramifications. Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera apparently 2 year extension at Saints for $2m a year. 😵

Seems a little odd - IF he is wanting to go, what contenders are after him on a short-term deal key back? Not a contender, but North makes sense for 2 years - but doubt he'd want to go a struggling team.

I think offering a mature 'in case of emergency' ruck a cheap 1 year extension is relatively low on the list of issues at the Dees at the moment to be honest.

A Hawthorn fan near me kept yelling out about Gawn getting "cheap touches" and being "no good" I was losing my mind.

2 games left, who wins the club leading goalkicker Pickett - 37.28 Fritsch - 33.27 Melksham - 31.20 Will Fritsch finally be de-throned.

He's turning 29 in December. Contract expires end of next season, so will be 30 in December 2026. Think that is what is meant to say.

I would love to either a) cost Hawthorn a spot in the 8 b) cost Collingwood a spot in the top 4 c) both So not so much experimenting from me then, raise hell fellas

For every Billings, McAdam there is a Jordon and Bedford though, so its a calculated risk

We do need another small forward, depends on the price. At least he'd stop taking screamers against us.

It was, then it wasn't. Then the National Trust came in and tried to stop Richmond knocking it down. But Richmond starting talking about it helping local community, women's football, indigenous groups and foundations and it was a battle they'd never win.

It's been suggested St Kilda have made that offer. Going all guns blazing for TDK and Reid? Will cost them NAS. Throwing the cash everywhere, thats why Cal Wilkie is upset Leek Aleer (8 games) will be getting paid as much as he is.

Received this message today, uncertain what to make of it Tell ya what, got a bit of a stiffy watching ya boy Langford on Sunday. First time I’ve really watched him properly

It's an interesting problem to be in when looking at short term v long term. We definitely seem a bit lobsided in terms of players who are probably best suited to the backline. Jeffo/JvR haven't developed as well as we would have liked. Still hope for the them though. Kentfield with a good pre-season might flourish. Derksen prob comes in for Hore. If Tmac doesnt go around again perhaps could make a move for Mihocek - but that isn't that long term either. Wonder what the long term plan for Kalani is (assuming he signs on the dots).
