Weid the best 3 handball first half ever seen!

After one quarter? No.

I think Goody said 6. 9 would be a surefire Brownlow 3 voter!

What job? Do you think anyone truly cares? Most just see one guy with a personal beef airing his dirty laundry. Very few people would’ve even heard of Tom Morris. And how does anyone know who’s telling the truth in these ‘he said, she said’ spats? If anything it makes Hogan’s case look worse because he didn’t leave the tweet up there in lights. Best policy is to stay away from the gutter. Leave it to the sewer rats.

Unfortunately in this day and age any publicity is good publicity. Bottom feeders like Morris revel in it. To prospective media employers it comes across as “this journo is prepared to muckrake and cause a stir for website clicks and ratings. You beauty”. Why give him the oxygen and the satisfaction? He said this, she wrote that. He did this, they didn’t do that. All fodder at the end of the day. Not what Jesse needs at all establishing his career and reputation in Perth. Especially after recent events in his life. Which is why, I’d hazard to guess, he quickly took the tweet down.

Perfect conditions for the Weid to kick 5 and answer the knockers. Carna Dees!

Let’s not go overboard. I’m sure he’ll survive. And who’s to say he not only enjoys it but comes up with the topics himself? Give the guy some credit.

Agreed Smokey. Good post!

Right or wrong, all a Twitter spat like that ends up doing is bringing unwanted attention to the player involved. Plus there are always two sides to a story. Not very bright but there you go.

I don’t think forum rules allow copy pasting while articles BR. Is that right mods?

No misrepresentation of your point at all. Just cutting through the fluff of what you wrote to get at the marrow of it. You back-pedalled, not me.

I actually enjoy a Hawthorn loss more than an Essendon loss now. But only just.

Ahh. I thought there might be a ‘but’. Then we’re agreed it’s not a lottery. And just like the stock market trading, some people are simply better at it than others.

If that’s true why have paid scouts and recruiters at all?

As I suggested @dazzledavey36. Hawks set to go to the draft now, a change in recruiting policy from their recent penchant for trading in established talent. https://amp.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/teams/hawthorn/hawthorn-intend-to-keep-early-draft-selections-to-lower-the-age-profile-of-its-list/news-story/7221e9daa58e91553de8450bd9684273 If Brad Hill wants back to Victoria to be with his missus he will likely have to settle on his second or third choice of Melbourne based clubs. In which case we should banging his agent’s door down to get him in red and blue. B.Hill > E.Langdon

Gawn, Howe, Jetta, TMac pre Jason Taylor. Take them out then tell me that’s a quality list.

Huge night for Worsfold. Sharks are circling.

Don’t take it to heart @ding. @Lord Nev does this to me and others, too.

Even if you’re taking that ridiculously obtuse angle as your defensive position it’s still 9 more goals than the 6-touch wizard wearing number 26 for the Dees! If you think Weid is going to take the comp by storm next year like Brown did in his third and fourth years at AFL level then I applaud your optimism. Please don’t mortgage your home to bet on it, though. There’s a long waiting list for government housing.

Regardless of what you ‘believe’ he never mentioned age, he said “corresponding season”. Maybe read posts properly and have a second think before you go accusing others of ‘whacking’ another poster and butting into a conversation. You’re being unnecessarily antagonistic. The usual path when someone’s argument is falling flat and their numbers don’t stack up.

Are the Brayshaw brothers from WA?

That might be the case but this is footy not basketball. A bloke with his hips and shoulders has all the tools to knock other blokes into next week using the correct technique. I agree with the OP that he needs to add this dimension to his game. It would seriously help the team and help him become the player we need him to be. Christian Petracca needs to find his inner Robert DiPierdomenico.

Aints are going to be last choice behind Carlton, Essendon, North and possibly even Hawthorn on the coaching merry-go-round. They have the least appealing list of any of them. Aints supporters are going to feel like they got left with the ugly girl at the dance.
