Waiting for about 80% of the after game coverage to be about how gallant Carlton have been, what a year they've had, etc., ignoring the lions.

Retire Brown. Can't afford to carry a player that is constantly missing games each year due to cooked knees.
I'd happily trade/retire McDonald but he stays purely for depth and being a long time servant of the club they'll want to do the right thing by him.
I wonder too if we may be waiting to see how things play out this trade period before perhaps paying one of them out.

A million bucks plus and two key forward list spots wasted heading into 2024. Both did not contribute meaningfully at all in 2023. Any way you look at it that’s a list management howler. Worse than the Grundy trade if we’re being honest. Who was responsible for it? Will it hamstring our chances to win the flag next year? Should we try to come to an arrangement with at least one of these players to call time on their careers? That’s a hell of a lot of cash allocated to Casey ‘mentors’ and to have sitting in the rehab room. Worth a discussion even if some find it uncomfortable. Elephant in the room stuff for mine. 🏡🐘
Current situation is a bummer, but in terms of list management BBB's contract terms got him to us and helped us win a flag, and pretty sure it was reported that TMac's last extension spread his money over more years, providing cap space to lock in our Tracs and Olivers, etc.

If you truly believe a massive error was made in the non-selection of Grundy, instead of automatically blaming Goody for the decision, consider for a second that it may not have been his choice. Imagine if Grundy himself had decided he didn’t want to be selected for whatever reason and the Club made this public knowledge. What a [censored]-show that would’ve been, right?
The guy is being paid 20 grand a week! He was attending training, etc. and not injured. It'd be beyond unprofessional for him to declare himself unavailable for senior selection.

They were flopping all over the place, milking frees and reversals that cost us goals, now we find that we've helped keep their best player on the field when he's leaking blood? Fyck our players are dumb sometimes.

We should have contested the Kozzy suspension, if for no other reason than to cause Carlton distraction in the lead up to the Lions prelim.

While we're on the subject, i didn't and probably won't watch the replay but was Nibbler's shot at goal genuinly touched? The vision on the big screen at the match seemed inconclusive.
On TV to me it didn't look touched. I didn't see a any finger deflection as the ball passed by the hand. The shadow of the ball quickly passing over the hand may have given the impression it was touched, but I didn't see evidence of physical contact.

A Brisbane / GWS..Grand Final would be everything the AFL DONT want and a celebration for most of the majority of the AFL's supporter base
Hilarious
On that, wouldn't the AFL be relishing the boon a QLD or NSW team's success would have for the growth of the game up there? Particularly a maiden GWS flag?
Personally I'd love nothing more than seeing the Pies and blues fall short next weekend.

A little bit of self reflection would be ok in my view I agree that his motherhood statements are just hollow now needs to say it how it is
If he is disappointed then he can say it
He did. Literally the first words of his presser were "I'm feeling like probably every Melbourne supporter and all the players next door there - pretty shattered."

I'm sitting with the in laws and they're calling Pickett a thug and the media beat up over Maynard taking brayshaw flowers “oh they played together as juniors “
I haven't had my say yet
[censored] collingwood supporters are on drugs. They literally have no idea
Hope you gave 'em both barrels.

I could see GWS knocking the Pies off. Port... no.

A picture perfect day down here at Casey Fields. Skills are fantastic. We've built a hell of a Dees side here.

Okay. So, I know we made a lot of mistakes but the fact is we were robbed.
I'm not going to itemize it but geebus there were a lot of obviously slanted calls.
That said, Tom McDonald has to retire.
If he doesn't they need to pay him out. We can't afford to plan around him up fwd.

I'm on the verge of laughing because that outcome was virtually inevitable. Danger signs all year - the Brisbane debacle in rnd 2, the essendon debacle, etc. But in the end the weight of losses of personnel, the inability to get the Grundy combo working and our widespread lack of foot skills did us in - exemplified by Vineys clanger in the dying minutes to turn the ball over and gift them a goal.

Our ball movement along the wings is terrible and Carlton are giving us nothing.
We will wear them down. They were pathetic in the 2nd half last week.
