    Technically he's still on the banner
  2. Slightly peculiar pick, but picks that late often speculative. Other players (former/current) derided on here for not having or showing enough mongrel, seems we've done something. At the end of the day we wanted Derksen and were offering a late pick, seems we used the late pick and got a similar player anyway. So it was clearly a void the football department wanted to fill
  3. Assumed he was mid-size-fwd cover, wonder if we'd have gone for him if Melksham hadn't done his ACL. Hasn't worked out for both parties as yet, but not drawing a line through him yet
  4. I don't keep as updated on the young fellas as some on here, when do you think he'll be ready to go?
  5. Hopefully Pickett, Clarry and Petracca go nowhere. Already read far too many Phantom Drafts and threads this year, couldn't handle even more first round picks this time next year.
  6. Was unaware #2 also got a bonus But other teams, c'mon
  7. I've done GC away previously, have some pals in Qld so usually combine as a trip. Was hoping for another Tasmanian fixture but may head back to GC again. Assume Gather round hotel and flights a little too hectic by now.
  8. What is the rational here?
  9. What interstate trips are people thinking of doing? Round 5 - Gather Round - Essendon Round 8 - West Coast Round 10 - Brisbane Round 12 - St Kilda - Alice Springs Round 15 - Port Adelaide Round 16 - Gold Coast Round 17 - Adelaide

    Catwoman already exists in the 'Matt Reeves Batman universe', Sofia also received a letter from Selina Kyle (Catwoman) hinting a possible reunion in the next Batman movie. Imagine she'll just continue as herself, don't imagine they'd make her Harley Quinn, despite having a similar arc from the 'asylum' point of view.
  12. This is my fault, think i'll be overseas sorry. But starting us off against a lowly supported interstate team will not help the narrative.
  13. I don't mind your posting, but this truly is unhinged behavior.
  14. I used to play sunday league soccer (long retired) and most games were either at 11am, 1pm, 3pm. So I missed a lot of games when we were poor, which may or may not have been a blessing. I actually don't mind the Sunday 1pm even though its a bit of a graveyard, don't like getting home too late on a Sunday, like to meal prep or unwind etc.
  15. It's an interesting one. We were originally after Pick 13, so not sure what our original plan was. I would still prefer 2 mids, but guess a lot depends on development of Jeffo/Adams/Kentfield and how confident we are we'll get Kalani next year or if we can bring in Derksen.

    I’ve never seen the original series, only the meh movie from the 90s. British dramas are just a+ viewing though

    Had to say goodbye to my old cat last month, played this song too often in the last month. It's the final song in a trilogy of of songs (first two released by The Weakerthans) about the relationship between a pet owner in the throes of depression/life and Virtute the Cat. The first two songs are written from the perspective of the cat but this one the cat is basically resurrected in the mind of its recovering owner. Some very good songwriting about a fictional cat.

    Watched all 5 episodes yesterday now I need to wait for weekly episodes, which I am not a fan of. Next show on my list is Shoresy (a spin off of Letterkenny) and then Silo.

  20. Agreed, but hard to predict risers/sliders and who picks who. Yet I continue to read these threads daily. Just over a week left and then I can get back to work
  21. Do people under 16 know what a internet forum is?
  22. Think we can get more from this fella, Kicked 17.7 this year from 15 games in 2024. Hopefully he stays fit and kicks on again in 2025.
