Agreed NWM deserved the 3 votes but some of the comments ive seen online make it seem like this was the most egregious moment of the night, at the end of the day the 2nd highest rated player that game got the 3 votes. There were games where Rowell/N Daicos polled when they had no right to, for me that's a lot worse than someone getting 2 votes when they deserved 3

Some of the criticism aimed at him above was similar to Chuck Spargo had - eg - average and not elite - not super quick

Yes that's what the media do, but I'm not sure why it's so unrealistic to think a player who wanted to leave for various reasons (not disclosed publicly), may still want to leave. The way it played out last year was a debacle for all involved and IF nothing has changed then i'm sure all parties would want to ensure that it's not played out that public again. Only Christian himself can tell us if he wants to leave, and he won't do that - so we're left with a schrodinger's cat-like situation. No use beating ourselves up over it, just wait and see what eventuates.

Success in the MCC Ballot sees me attending. Hoping for a close game but think Cats just that level above.

Getting a little bit bullish on Kentfield, hoping he has an impressive pre-season. I'm in favour of adding Brody to the list for various reasons but hopefully the powers to be are looking at tall and small options for the forward line

241241249- The amount of times @picket fence will advocate Jeffo's selection

I was having a look at some of CPs stats, it's hard to gauge some of them, he obviously dominates inside 50 kicks, and accuracy aside, he's been 1st or 2nd in goal assists every season since 2017. Can that easily be replaced? Random Tidbit - What I also found is Dean Kent was the leading goal assister in 2016.

What about if a top team picks up a free agent it loses draft pick/s. Sort of weigh up the now vs future element.

With Spargs going it makes some sense, low cost depth signing - probably plays less games in 2026 but solid enough option. Him and Laurie will be in last chance saloon in 2026, hopefully it lights a fire under them

(Aside from not live-streaming and having a roaming mic at the presser) - is it just me or has our social media game lifted a little the last week or so?

Agreed Salary cap should be made public. But in terms of equalisation, afraid the Toothpaste is out of the tube on that one.

What would that do for his’ brand’ tho, smaller crowds than us in a Rugby state.

Think the boot was equally stuck into chuck, but also not sure you can call out others whilst simultaneously referring to a player as a plodder

Only 2 games to report on from weekend, no MRO issues, only 2 games this week. Need something to talk about it, they're basically Buckley-ed out at this stage.

Will his family be re-locating or staying on the GC?

Would have had a slight interest if it was against SA for nostalgic reasons.

Trying to analyze/dissect our salary cap without the real data is like watching drunks play darts

Good form. Probably time for a profile photo change. May i suggest

Yeh a little funny when the situation is framed in a social setting and you're after a new relationship Option 1 : Yes I would like to date you 100% Option 2: I'd consider dating you, but only after I've spoken to someone else about possibly dating them.

I think any aspect of life needs a serious-nonsense/silly balance. So bring it on.

Can I have next week’s Tattslotto numbers?

Encountered this when Amorim was appointed at United, 8 months younger than I, that did not make sense.

10 years is quite a stint. Seems more the exception than the norm at present.

Kelly would have been the first (permanent) Demons head coach younger than me, don't like milestones like that. So i am in favour of this appointment
