binman’s rant (Goody defence)
Yep - which is ny point. Goody has delivered a flag whereas several Carlton coaches including Voss haven't. See Fagan also but atleast he's got close. They're hard to win!

binman’s rant (Goody defence)
I agree @Ollie fan - there's a bunch of good lists. How about Carlton? Theyve had as many if not more picks from top end of the draft and not even gone close, yet. Which is why contending 3 (possibly 4?) years on the trot is so difficult and we deserve credit (see Collingwood who go criticism free for their flag defence). Oh well.

binman’s rant (Goody defence)
Ive struggled with our 2021 flag being devalued (even on here by Demons) and we've been painted as having offered a meek defence of it in 2022/2023. Despite starting 2022 like a train, Top 4 both years, and not quite getting over the line in September. Meanwhile Geelong start 2023 0-3 and miss finals and Collingwood 2024 0-3 and will miss finals. Yet they are painted as great Flag winnners and their respective coaches lauded.

The Run Home
Oh if we beat Freo and GWS the lid is definitely off. That form line combined with the coulda/shoulda win at the GABBA (and the Lions own form line stacks up) would put us in the mix vs everyone. Particulalry with a fully fit Gawn then returning. But this is all the biggest IF ever. Just enjoying each game.

Luke Parker Strike in the VFL
Disgraceful. Frustrated being in the 2s no doubt.

Joke corrupt system. Cornes sets the agenda with "no case to answer" immediately and thats how it plays out.

Do they have wifi so we can trade half the list in the Gameday Thread?

The Premiership Window Closing?
Sounds a lot like "my mate Shannon worked at the Dees so i liked them - now he doesn't they're done". Slow news day.

The Marley Davey Thread
The AFL will change the Father/Son points system so Kalani, Noah and Marley cost us 3 first rounders. Meanwhile pick 40 and 42 Nick Daicos will be collecting the Brownlow.

Luke Jackson for Jefferson and Windsor? Hope he's good!

James Leake
Weird how "theres a clear top 8 and then a big gap" and "i cant see any changes to the top end of this draft" has been the narrative for a month and now every club is into Leake having got whisper we like him. I'd guess this chap was our target/reason for trading for pick 11 and now possibly have to use 6 on him? Who knows. But funny how every club is obsessed at who JT likes.

Harrison Petty
We gave them pick 10 and future pick 10 for Lever. Turned it into Petty. Will take pick 10 and Pick 14 and received Lever for free. And if they don't want to pay we just keep Petty until RFA. We hold all the cards here.

Maynard must get at least four weeks
Ross Lyon thought it was unacceptable and Chris Scott thought it was unacceptable. Very experienced footy men with no skin in the outcome. Whole thing stinks.

POSTGAME: QF vs Collingwood
Sorry - slow to reply and others have got there first. Other options available. Turn in left shoulder and avoid contact altogether. Land with arms straight and push off him. Land in cuddling motion. If it was entirely unavoidable why is this the first case we've seen all season? I assume noone has ever left the ground for a front of smother this year then? Or they have but theyve chosen all the other optuons available and not tried to level their opponent.

POSTGAME: QF vs Collingwood
Hard disagree. Plenty of other options available. Took the opportunity to level someone out because it was there under the protection that your kind of analysis provides. I do agree he will definitely get off. Channel 7 set the agenda immediately. You could tell at half time Dangerfield felt it was unacceptable but didn't want to upset the apple cart
