  1. Really DS Your gut feelings are way off the mark and there was info last week that an offer was very close. Obviously it's not as complicated as you thought. Trac is not a complicated person and knows now what he wants. All power to him He deserves his contract snd the spoils. A boy has grown to a much more mature man in about 3 years. We are ready to embrace our new found attitudes and selflessness and ability. Results on the field have never been more important now we have set strong standards and group ideals. Maybe all the stars are aligning in 2021 and a long wait For success could be nearing its end in the next season or two. Go Dees

    Really ???, loved hIm in 2018 But too injured and never the same. Frankly saved him from delisting by going to Dogs. Maybe you also want Lent back!!!!' Seriously Chandler should get call up for Baker.

    Agree
  6. Agree completely Billy. Tmac brings a different and more combative game style which helps players our smalls in particular to be a real part of the forward line. Also he marks mostly at the top if his arms outstretched ( BBB does also) and in congested packs. We need him also for accuracy ( Both Weid and BBB are accurate also I admit) but ho can also go to defence if needed. Hail T Mac.
  7. Jacko is a rare beast and refuses to make many (any!) errors.Great game agsin,
  8. I said to myself in the first 20 mins that same comment We were not handling the sep up in class at all well. Made every mistake and fumble in the book and could have been 5goals to nil down at 20 min. Mark. But credit where credit is due we kicked 10.8 to 2.5 in the next 70 mins till 3/4 time to totally control the game. Last quarter was a holding operation done without much fuss and much attention to team ethos and structure till it broke the Tigers discipline level. Just as they may/will recall Kossie was a little cheeky ( didn't mind it at all no backward steps from this new Demon) then we can bank the Tigers lack of Team discipline for future Occasions. Round 2 whenever at MCG will be worth waiting for!
  9. Bloody oath it will have been worth the wait. And when it happens it will be all the sweeter!!!
  10. Leave him for the Blues or Cats!
  11. The resulting Media contract pays fir the Thursday and weekend TV firm Ch 7 and Foxtel. it's a million rupees less than the AFL Start of Round game and plugs a gap on Thursday to at least give AFL viewers a choice rather than a Rugby experience!
  12. No No No Tmac DOES NOT take over Melkshams role. HE continues at CHF and plays as he has done. Mediums and LJ are now in Melky role same as BBB at FF with LJ next to him running around or leading or marking with a small forward in the pocket. LJ is the X factor who can play HF FP or FF if necessary or ruck as required. It may mean Maxy limits his time up forward depending upon the game situation etc.
  13. Jordan should not be dropped ( only managed if necessary ) for Harmes to replace him. Harmesy needs a good 2 game block at Casey to earn a recall as JJ has done as asked from about 70% game time only.

    So right Tony 90,000 forget about Covid!!

    Lions are more likely to win more H and A games than Eagles as they win away Have already done that with Carlton and Pies. Lions also have last 4 games at home from memory 3 of those are Pies ( in lieu of Covid Easter Eve Game switch to Marvel) Freo and Eagles last round. Eagles will need to win at least 2 away from home In H and A fixture, and need Home games in Finals really. Impossible for them to do a Doggies 2016 as likely all games away!!!
  16. That was Jake Niall That said that !
  17. Give = FIVE
  18. Brown untried at this level??? Give seasons of AFL is hardly untried and played in finals!

    SCOTT can see another Final after half time Being overrun due to the old brigade in Cats colours too slow and Unfit.
  20. Just feels it sends the wrong message to young players when playing well. Melksham is the elephant still but it's hard work fir BBB and Weid as Tmac Snd LJ are performing a pivotal role as well as a team first role and no way should this be tampered with. Strange combo Tommy marks at a high Level as his long arms are straight up and Jacko has those ground skills plus improvement in marking potential now as a forward. Then where do we start with his ruck role priceless for the Gawn effect all over the ground!!!

    2019 we burnt him as a result of 2018!!
  22. Not a subscriber to the get back on the horse principal.? Thats what is better For Bayley who needs some tough love not molly coddling.
  23. Ridiculous did U watch The game ? Or replay. Does things so Unobtrusively that you don't notice inc. handballs tackles and fits in with the mids as scpoibbof difference.
  24. I'll be surprised if T MAC is playing in spite. That is not the only motive he is displaying ( if at all) He is just super fit and playing dangerously and can see the big picture. He may not have liked the edict but has responded superbly and is a giant reason why the forward line is a force to be reckoned with. He has always been a Club person and I believe as a Life Member is undoubtedly still!
  25. Cwood were not in Perth ( I am certain ) during red zone period. They flew out last Friday week or arrived home on Sat.week.
