58er

Look at the previous one and Daniels highlights Looks very nervous in the last photo so it's silly to firm an opinion on a photo how a player will go!!

I believe we need a player of Locky's size and pace and run and carry for the really slippery crumbers like Betts Tippa and Cody Weightman and Daniels and Hill of GWS. Hibbo has done a great job on Martin Cameron and the Dogs forward types. Definirely another one year contract in 2022.

Yes

Best they make the call now as it's so uncertain about the Board they can't even start plans go the future as the Coach position is uncertain. The results now if 10 games are irrelevant to 2022 and beyond but it means the issue of judging Buckley is out of the equation and players are free to play with no shackles or restrictions fir their futures!

I wouldn't be rushing to sign him up look at the connection for about 5 years (2014/17 and 2020/21) between the defence/mids and his forward line and really the team did not in 2018/19 kick enough goals to win a flag.

Yes was at that game and we broke a huge unbeaten winning run st the Gabba by the three peat champions the Lions.

No but saying/using "we" when you have clearly stated you won't be attending footy this year due to your response to Covid predominantly is not accurate!. I have however seen the possibility you were "quoting" we as in Melb supporters or Dees fans as a collective and not necessarily yourself. Main thing is we maintain our Health as best we can and participate in community and live events as we see safely. Hope life in this current lockdown has been safe and strong OD. Dees fans have the most important 4 mths of our football lives for over 50 years in front of us and with the prospect of something very special possible and even "life changing " so we want to soak it up and enjoy the ride as well as the result.

Hore will not be replacing any one Daniel Turner our new 194 cm rookie will do that maybe even next year.

Loyal and reliable five year player with Dees with fine record. Enjoy your retirement Meg.

Is the fittest he has been even before 2018 I reckon. Had good year last year also and his disposal has even a great bonus. Absolutely wants to keep playing as long as he can and would be highly motivated about the chance of success looking a big chance in the future.

Well done Long S Hope your family are feeling the hope and expectation in a measured way. There is no certainty in life let alone footy but our boys have been nothing but committed and absolutely single minded about their input and methods this season. it's looking very promising and above all sustainable with I believe our potential to score regularly over the 100 pts each round. So much happening in improvement and growth. Maybe we could be a sleeping giant again at Finals like 2018. L we Rd get a Top2 spot and don't leave the G !!

Yes I have since 2018

All of our midfielders have changed their style somewhat tweaking or majorly like Clarry. But the most important result is that ALL are impacting the result and coordinating as a major engine room with plenty of outside breakers who move the ball quicker and cleaner than we have ever before. Reality is when you look at our personnel is it any great surprise that once we have got the mechanics right our on ballers are all able to damage the opposition in their own way. An absolute nightmare for other teams. I also believe we punish and execute in a speedier fashion than the more handball dominated Bulldogs fashion.

The AFL are going to try as much as possible to get Vic back to crowds after this lockdown. Remember they were 85% !! They Will carefully return with the Finals in mind at the G . What's with the "WE" OD you haven't even gone outside your door to go to a game according to your posts!!

Bet you weren't saying that at half time on Friday night!!!

This is an example of the role that the role that AFL can make the community a much better place for all. Congrstuelstions MFC this is another example of why we love our Club getting involved in the community. And the AFL just took Darwin off us and no replacement.! Just as an aside The Pies ( under Eddie) have supported and run a homeless meal centre for a long time in the community. So hats off to Eddie etc Also for their community contribution..

Good suggestion and share whatever happens !!

Ant what is your beef about Daisy's real career being mentioned? It was not disparaging. compare that to say an AFL when Bailey Fritsch joined us he was a tradie Jay Lockhart similar but no one would accuse like you have. Fact is Daisy is NOT a journalist She is a commentator ( You are demeaning the careers of Journslists with Daisy) Yes Mick McGuane writes fir the HuN but really is he a journalist technically YES but not trained. You are calling all the ex players who commentate journalists and that is incorrect Detmie a journalist ! Give us a break!! Discussions don't qualify as journalism in any capacity It's a writing skill that good journalists like Caro are trained for. For years.sometimes. Sorry but there is a tangible difference and you should be made aware of it.

I agree BB thought agsin last night watching the replay for the second time Abdolutely Hipwood only tried to prevent Jake from contesting. That's a free in any situation!!

Agree the cost must have had a lot to do with the reluctance of 17 CLUBS not even responding or a phone call. Just look at the Taylor Harris scenario bit the same but her alleged non team attitude this season would also be kicking in. BTW I have complete faith that she wil not disrupt our AFLW culture and the pay issue is more controlled in the W comp and if Daisy says OK then it's OK. !!

It's still in our hands on game day The best laid plans are always going to be ( OR should be) flexible.

That no argument for playing players for 60% and not picking your best team. Players are used on a day to day basis depending upon Circs so this should have no bearing unless a player is deliberately being managed.

I agree sort of with Locky We need a smaller defender and Locky is the go at this stage not Bowery I reckon. Bowey is a player no doubt but just not yet .

Yes 31July Cassiew.

I have not suggested in my post recently that Dam go back PERMANENTLY. I said give him some game time at Casey at CHB to enable Sam to get his game together ( mainly for his marking to go from two grabs to ONE grab and get confidence in his football. Seriously it's a no brainer Sam May be better than Petty snd Tommo as a KP Defender and Harry could still be a better forward if this happened. Wn i win as they say but to dismiss Sam as not good enough is foolish and careless. Tmac would not be the forward he is without Roos/Goodwin giving him the opportunity to go forward. He was a great mark but his disposal horrid a lot of the time. Look at him now!!! Wr have to be creative and Sam somehow must overcome his FEAR of not succeeding ie his low self esteem on game day out on the field. It's mostly that fear that restricts his belief in himself and his role and acceptance that he is AFL quality. Let him talk to any one about his confidence ( after giving him permission) if he believes it's gong to be good for himself. Choco may be the man also but It's really SAM that holds the key with the Clubs help.
