Roost it far

It ended up a Daicos free after Ed grabbed his leg. The umpiring was atrocious but that's not new. I thought we got a few gifts as well.

That's long been the word on Daly. Apparently he turned down both MaCrae and Hardwick for fairly recent assistant roles. He'd be a huge get for us imo.

I think you can let that go now. I was doubtful of his appointment however now he’s started let’s give him and Smith some time, they deserve at least that.

Your man May is a deadset liability. He’s not streets ahead of anyone on an AFL list

The way May moves, the quicker transition, his attitude at times…..if it’s not the end he’s going to need one hell of a preseason.

He may get a game in front of May but it’s still a no

I’m predicting we’ll fold like a cheap suit but it’ll make my season if we knock them out of the finals which is what we have the opportunity to do.

They can’t sack Richo now anyway. He’s contracted till 26 I believe and surely we can’t afford 2 unfilled salaries in the soft cap next season

I opted out of the frenzy and become a watcher and reader for awhile. Your enthusiasm needs to be commended and the report writers have been awesome.

Righto, are we all going to gush or get a serious report done. You know who you are, you’ve got till 4 and make em comprehensive! Something about playing Collingwood that gets me back in the zone. 😎

Sheesh people look good in Demon wear.

I’m against Buckley because I think others including Daly are a better choice. He’s the safe, predictable, club in strife choice. I want us to be able to recognise the next great coach not the last ok coach. C’mon Big Fella, I expect better from a man of your statue.

I can think of 2 players who I’d consider moving along if we got high picks for them. Do we ask for a high pick and cop the high shared salary. It’s probably the only way we can get into the first round.

All well and good excepting the fact that running Half Back's with neat disposal and sound defensive capabilities are what drives a team. McVee is that player, yes he's been poor this year but let's not start throwing out the baby with the bathwater.

It’s become a team of individuals and therein lies one of our main onfield issues. I don’t know or much care what Judd wants but for mine he replaces Salem, who honestly I loved as a player but he’s become about as useful as a toupee at a bald man’s convention. If we open 2026 with May at FB, Salem at HB, Lever in rehab and Judd playing for the Cats I’m tapping out till 27.

Kanga’s support isn’t essential but it’s welcome. Lock this in and we’re automatically better off. It amazes me that so much land sits there barely being used. Our facilities will still leave plenty of grass for dogs to poop on. NIMBY’s can GAGF.

Handball over the top to a running Windsor

If this is true I'll be stoked.

Get this guy. I don't get the Buckley love. We need ideas from winning assistants who want their own team. Daly's tough, a bit old school and has helped transform the Lions into consistent finals team. (yes they've had some father son help) Tell me, What's Buckley done again?

I don’t rate him but that’s a hunch more than anything else. Just doesn’t come across as a really serious hard nosed business man. Time will tell.

Does he live in a tiny house?

Don’t mention the word reset you’ll bring out a whole other mob to fight with.
