Roost it far

He played well no doubt. In the past when he played well he got 7-10 coaches votes and 1-3 Brownlow votes. How many votes did he get in that “back to his best” game? He’s a $500k midfielder on $1.4mill.

And one of my favourite players because of it but those days are no longer. I’m still surprised we’re shopping him again. Didn’t we sort this stuff out over the last 2 years?

he’s nowhere near as fit as he was at his best. To think differently is head in the sand stuff.

I’d trade Petracca and Oliver for Humphrey tonight.

Of all the chaos the one that actually annoys me the most is losing McVee. He’s the future, he can read the play, he’s quick and he’s an above average kick. Oliver on the other hand, is unfit, a problem child but we’d all love him to be the 2026 redemption story but that’s very likely the AFL equivalent of a Tatts ticket. Petracca, well enough has been said there. King’s either a bull in a China shop or our next great coach, I’ve no idea which. I really hope the club knows what it’s doing because whilst I’m all for change it needs structure around it.

As far as leaks go. There’s not a club in the comp that can keep this stuff quiet. He only has to tell his mate, manager, mum or dad and away you go. There’s plenty to beat the club with today but I’m not sure there’s any way you can contain this information.

Where’s the fun in that? Today’s been a hoot on here. This is Peak Demonland.

Our Saturday was 2 years ago

I’ve no concern that he’s not coming as I had none when Houston knocked us back.

Has Wade done a Houston on us?

Feels to me like King and perhaps Guerra have arrived and thought to themselves “WTF is going on here?” I know there’s many here who want to protect the club but it’s pretty damming evidence that the rot had set in. Goodwin’s dismissal looking more and more like an overdue decision.

There’s no world where he’s the player he was. I’d be very surprised if you haven’t seen the hesitation that he now has. I’m not slagging him off, I totally understand why that would happen.

who no longer appears to want to hunt the ball like he used to.

As Designated Chief of Training Reports I’m always grateful for those who actually do the reports. You know who you are and without you this site wouldn’t be as good as the big dogs hoped it would be. 👍

Do we still get Prasad? Are we selecting SInnema?

I’m still disappointed we didn’t swap Darren Kowal for David Wirrapunda so I feel your suffering.

Wait till he actually leaves. They’ll be polishing Brand Petracca for years. My one hope is he and the club have done some work together on extracting a good deal from GC by involving Adelaide. I guess I’m hoping we’ve got someone working the strings on this 💩show.

Has the posture of a guy who didn’t want to stand out. Compare that to a Morris or Gallup. Chalk and cheese.

I’m going to boo our only Norm Smith Medallist at some point next year. Dee’s really unleashing hell here.

I like your sentiment and I want him gone. However our club has made a meal of its stars and the list as a whole. This simply doesn’t happen at strong, well led and well run clubs. To me it looks like we haven’t been strong enough to stop the tail wagging the dog. Please move Richardson along because from the outside I’d say he’s part of the problem. let the broom finish its work.
