  1. That's like some people ruling Tommy Mac out of playing AFL this year. Each season a team or player starts From scratch and can train and play practice game/s so well that he Can't be ignored. Yes Harry will do well to play Round 1 but he would be desperate to No doubt. Deep down Tommy likewise Imagine if the 2018 Tomny returned with Harry and BBB at full forward how good would our chances be fir the Top 4???

  4. Kent and Gawndog Jetta is cooked didn't you see the last 2 games played in 2020? courage alone no pace. Lockhart in BP Rivers HBF Salem to wing or HF. Much needed pace In team.
  5. Sorry ODee Whst plane didn't you come down on??? All those players had warts or potential problems they magnified them fir the salary recap to fit in DeGoey snd others. Also Bucks was the messenger with trumped up reasons. They needed scapegoats and Treloar Stepho and Phillips were the easy ones that they exaggerated their '"sins" and who were clogging up the salary cap. It was easy then to throw Jaffa's grandson off the list to make more room. Hsd nothing too do with revitalising the list !! As planned by Ned Guy.

    Why isn't LockhartOk? He was just not played by Goody near end of 2020 and that wasted an opportunity for him to get games into him. Jets is really at end sadly and Jay is the best small Forward minder On the list. Agree with nearly all of rest Though.

    Why next year if not this year suitors for Tommy ? only if he has a reasonable or good year. In fact if he kicks 30 plus goals or plays a Pedo role or goes back into defence if he gets fitter he could very well be a wanted player.

    Oscar has not " gone" IMO. There are still a few days Before lists are finalised. Lockhart for instance has not been offered a contract also but at least will be a Rookie again, if not on our list. Chsndler Neitschke Jordan Bedford (I think) are without contracts also. One or two others may be out of the list also.0
  9. And don't forget KC has played with Gill's love hold self AFL supported team against BBB in The near Tas Team hanging on from grim death!!

    SONS don't need Witherden have Lockhart if we play him! Yes fire sale was a lost opportunity either Phillips or Stepho First round 2021 pick lost now but we pick swap like no one else and may be a ;14-18 anyway !
  11. Agreed and still can improve his efficiency yo become anA grader
  12. 58er replied to Lucifers Hero's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Yes was Tom but all contract offers have not been made yet due to the list no's from AFL. Not available.
  13. Welcome Benny Brown 4 years of fun and success. Can't wait to see you burn up the G taking marks kicking goals and helping our team become a real challenger. Hope you are happy at home and with you r footy and set fir a great season.
  14. Could be but let's not rule anything out.
  15. Well it may be 8 and 25 more likely.

    We are writing Tom completely off and and I hope he makes us all eat any words said. What I do know if Tom can get fit his input to our results is huge. A fit 2018 style Tom forward back or as a back up follower would put us in a major position to do some real damage. One thing we should all know about the McDonalds they are fine clubmen from a wonderful family who will leave no stone unturned to make the Dees successful. Just imagine if Tom starred on GF day fit and dangerous with the other forwards playing to a plan using a three skills!!! Bring it on Dees and Tommy.
  17. Very good summary WW. Agree Very happy if Adam is 3rd tall defender But even happier if he is listed on the interchange for versatility down back and in ruck. If only an Emergency then we are in great shape. Will be a good Clubman and role player but prob won't play in our Drought breaking premiership But if he does then he will have contributed and earned his spot, 3 more years and although salary seems 'overs' you have to pay that mostly when trading with other Clubs! Adam the reliable!!.

    AD sorry it's our depth that Boston us this year All our top players performed well over the board Uts the first season I reckon We can say we have 4 A graders and about 3 B graders plus around 7:8 B- it young developing players. But the ANB AVB Oscar Hannan Jetta( sadly) and maybe Hunt Jones and Smith that are not any where near better than 2018 and We have few forward flankers who are up to consistent Form. Spargo has improved but still needs to contribute mor not just on good days!
  19. Pretty much agree SONS
  20. By golly This would have the Oscar haters confused. Who to criticise the most. Why did Pies move him on and NOW why when Roos are having a fire sale would you take Marley? Lockhart is twice the player and 3/4 years younger and makes far less mistakes than Zmarleh who is a coach killer at worst and disposal not great at best. We font need half backs we need goal scorers and outside runners oh and Ben Brown!!
  21. A first rounder is not on the Agenda if u can believe the talk last week What has Ben done for Josh Mahoney to alter that stance Pick 31 plus 50 should suffice and another player or a first round pick should be traded for us to have a hand later today on a class reject from one of the Clubs that are not wAnted. If we just look at a regular AFL player then Tom Phillips George Hewitt ( exchange for Oscar or dome deal involving Tom) or Cat Narkle or Brodie from Gold Coast. All would be cheap and still allow our top trade ambitions to survive. BUT I would like Josh Mahoney To contact JUSTIN WESTHOFF from Port to come out of retirement. Is versatile and Perfect third/ fourth defender or attack and is good kick fir goal to boot and great Clubman with Experience for say 2 years.

    Only Picket Fence would Approve of this deal!!!

    Sydney Swans are just the team to get Oscar moving You Don't play in their 22 If you don't play your role and play their system. If they can make first year players play their system why not take a chance on already proven players who IMO would improve A half agsin with JL coaching!!! Might even get Tom going ! Josh give them a ring for the Future 2nd rounder fir both!!
