i like this kid's background and journey to get here. If he doesn't make it you just know it won't be through lack of effort or application Plenty of lovely players out there that don't have the heart for the battle. In an either/or situation i'll take competitiveness and mongrel over talent every day of the week. Delighted to have you onboard AJ. Good luck young man

Welcome aboard Harvey. looking forward to seeing you play many games in the red and blue

The commercial side of the draw gets mentioned quite a bit. Are we actually more disadvantaged with this draw compared to more night games like we had last year? We played GWS and Port on Saturday night prime last year both in front of a near empty MGC. Those games can't have been anything only loss making. If we play well through 15 rounds we'll be better scheduled last 7 games. Playing well is the best way to bring commercial success.

The fixture is perfectly fine i reckon the Hawks will regress this year so the best top 6 double up we could have asked for We have a very good record in Adelaide so suits us to play 3 games there. We should finish top 4. if we don't it won't be because of the fixture

The opening round concept is a crock

Delighted to see her outstanding season recognised. Thoroughly deserved. Kate hore and Eliza McNamara missing out is a joke.

Beggars belief. Clown show.

Storm are an outstanding organisation. Nabbing their CEO would be a huge boon for us.

I do agree earlier Sunday time slots are preferable. I’ll still make the 4.40 though

Why is 4.40pm inconvenient? If cold is the issue then hats, scarves and mittens will solve the problem.

I’m looking forward to Sunday games. Much more convenient for bringing the kids along

I don’t know what our draft hand is.

the cowboys should start planning for next season. this year is cooked

Geez. the falcons should have done better second half. Bad mistakes at crucial times cost them. You knew it wasn't their day when the field goal attempt bounced back off the upright.

This poster is an obvious troll. same schtick every thread. Don't let him waste your time.

Bloody injuries! brilliant second half of the year but injuries and fixtures did us ultimately plenty of positives though. Really looking forward to Pisano Campbell and Gall developing further and hopefully Beasley can recover and show us what she can do. Tayla back will be huge as well. Go Dees.

cowboys very close to cooked for the year. Dak left the game due to a hammy and CD Lamb in a lot of discomfort with his shoulder. must win game next week v the Eagles but given all the injuries, we are long odds to make play-offs

Brilliant on field. great professional. He sustained a really bad injury so I hope he can return to his best for us. needs to find better counsel off field. His solo run to force a trade embarrassed himself and the club. It was never going to happen. I'll forgive him but i won't forget. That said, Kate and Pert have now left so his grievances have been somewhat vindicated.

If the AFL wanted North gone they would have done it already. Not going to happen.

Campbell and Gall are very promising but no way would I look to move Tayla on. She is still a quality player. The only proviso i would have is how committed she is to AFLW. I don't like her boxing while contracted to us. I totally understand she has to make a living and good luck to her but not on our dime. I'm not sure she was fully focussed during preseason and can't but think her injury was a result of a lack of preparation and/or boxing related consequences.

We should have an easier fixture next year which will help us to bounce back.

Bombers not losing this. early season injuries stuffed us Lots of positives though. Some very promising youngsters got plenty of game time. With a full compliment next year we’re well placed to challenge. go dees
