What other Club would have Rivers Brayshaw Bowey and McVee as alternatives replacements or in their best 23 for their half back line. ? Having said that Salo is still the best disposer off half back and could still be missed if out for part of he season. I have no doubt any of the four will accept the challenge and be at their best if called upon. Angus could get nod with Riv and Bowser in the 23.

DD if it was'nt my theory then OK why have so many Dees fans supported the theory that we should have used more players last season when clearly about a third of our 23 played injured and also some down on form. We know the results of the last half fade outs of the team and no attempt was really made to solve this issue.

Is really an A grader now and vastly underrated by other Clubs fans. Great to watch his smooth class and skill as he boots the goals also.

Well Done Demon Army.

Probably either a friend/relative of Josh Schache or Lachie Hunter. Not too difficult to guess I would say. That sort of backs up David King's post about a month ago of our intensity in our training being elite from all he has seen.

I actually think the evidence is there to see. His refusal to give some players a go last year was so disappointing especially as we had some players injured and others tired and past best. Must not happen again this year we must use our full list and keep players on edge fighting for positions.

Kossie and Fritta say HI BBB and Tmac when fit say HI JVR says give me a go!! ANB Spargs say we'll be better this year Chandler says just please give me a go also!!!

DZ Curiously you didn't pull up Demonland correcting this mistake as second in line to do so!!! Third up is a bit too far for your patience.

How come a critical error in fact is made then afterwards?

Agree that flexibility is king and your examples are good and sensible. BUT Tommo was a spare parts player for GWS and we gouncc do that he didn't come up to scratch as a winger. If he recovers or improves his flexibility and paces key defensive post as depth is his for the taking behind May Petty snd Turner or Adams who may need half a season at least because of pre season delays. ( Lever not really a KPD but very valuable interceptor)

Since they WON a Final !!

Jnrmac Still haven't answered my question of why if we recruited Hunter snd he is training on the wing we would prefer other "wingers" to him? He prob could play HF flank but no indication so far as wing is his to lose on the training notes.

Do not agree that Club are just awaiting Tommo to be out if contract. Clubs can't afford to generally cast aside 3 or 4 players as finished as no one knows how good or bad injuries strike. On the contrary Tommo for his part has lost some weight with a view to greater mobility flexibility and pace. All to give himself a chance of returning to AFL more consistently. Unfortunately Goody seems to write players off occasionally ( Lockhart, perhaps Bedford and Chandler last Year ) . Guess we won't know the full story till the end of 2023 but I believe Tommo May even as a depth player perform a part in our season if he recovers more from the ACL this year along with his fitness program. Could be Tmac all over again!!

Ever heard about LJ episode. Think it's really that no one was advising him and delayed it because he was scared? Club have Exit interviews every season on the first 3 days after season finish so don't believe the farce you advised! That's before Trade period snd I deny case the MFC presumed in its planning LJ was leaving. Whst snout his Manager ?

Wrong check the club website Brody Schache today Lachie a week ago

Agree DD but I feel he will be good this year after another season after ACL and more flexible and faster but still only suited to the backline, not the wing.

Well done Must look to book myself. one of the best games will be the opening night vs Bulldogs who have more players like us to display. Will be a great match worthy of our 2021 clashes. Reslly hope we get a big crowd to all the home blockbusters vs Dogs Swans Tigers Freo Pies Blues Lions and away ones vs Tigers Dons Hawks Saints? And Blues and Swans.

Pray tell why would we recruit Hunter if Tommo was to go back to the wing? Where will Hunter play ? No I think Tommo will prove handy in the backline With much greater pace flexibility snd run as he is much fitter and lighter hollowing his ACL two years.

Really Stigga! Your comment is incomplete and negative. This is the real situation. 2011 -2022 NUMEROUS players leave GC inc. our Great Full Back Maysie. 2011 -2016 MFC lose too many players 2017-2022MFC wins flag 2021 makes Finals 3 times in 5 years with lowest 5 th Loses virtually only L. Jackson who as far back as 2020 when he signed only a ONE year extra as others numerous signed mega deals. GC 2022/2023 lose RANKIN and Anderson signed 4 yr deal! MFC 2022 Gain Grundy and Hunter snd Schache to replenish list. MFC 2023 haven't lost Kossie YET. And you think there is something wrong in a curious comment. Facts please why are we losing any one ?

Smooth AS !!!!! We have a bunch of recruits who all may have the potential to bridge the gap Obviously some will and some others may take longer or even miss the boat in'23. But who they are is up for grabs and it is exciting to possibly think of the development potential. Bring it on!

That game was limited by ticketing deliberately. So they did "limit" the numbers of the crowd to the allowed space for spectators.

It's 88not 87.

Rivers is there snd Brayshaw plus maybe Wowoedin or we might get Kye Turner vis the SSP rule.

Does not make any sense at all saying we recruited Schache for a high half forward role. We need pace on our FOrward Flanks like Chandler or ANB Kossie etc. not tall slower players to compete with our forwards already in Tmac BBB JVR or the resting ruckman or Schache in a KPF or forward pocket.
