The Jackson FIX

How did Clarry used to go in these time trials back when he was at peak fitness?

The westies wouldn’t know flavour if it smacked them in the face though

Bowza coming onto Eddie’s wing in this scenario is an instant win for our decision making/delivery into the forward line but I wonder whether he has the thank for that role?

Agree they are rare but it can change the way an opposition team sets up around the contest/ who they play on you if you’re known to be strong in the air. A bit like a keeper coming up to the stumps to a quick bowler - the stumping isn’t their priority, they’re trying to keep the batsman back in the crease to aid the bowler’s length. Keeps the batsman honest.

A 60-goal year from Roo is in my letter to Santa

He was great with the kids at the race on game day last year, always had time for the little ones, always very engaging.

Me too.

Don't know much about him nor the NBL under Larry K to be honest…

Jay Clarke tweeted that David Stevenson (NBL) and Simon Garlick are names in our CEO hunt (he didn’t give much more context. mentioned Swann likely to extend with Brisbane.

I sense a subtle/carefully planned petulance to Christian’s approach at the moment. He is acknowledging his love for footy and ticking the boxes as an athlete (early back to training) but not outwardly making the effort we’d all hoped to mend the club/culture problems he so publically surfaced. He’s a big boy and he can do what he wants but I hope he understands how that might impact some of the younger and fringe players in the side that are so grateful for their opportunity at the club and with each other. It is probably why he never really progressed as a recognised leader at the club at any stage of his career.

Ben Simmons jumped in on Trac’s Inst post today to swat away some filth bogan trying to claim him as a pie. Good on ya Ben.

Does all of this ‘McAdam to retire’ talk stem from one DL poster who also made some Kossie predictions in the off-season that didn’t eventuate? Or am I missing something?

I really really hope he doesn’t read Demonland

Giles Thompson. Famous for letting V’landys walk all over racing Vic and near-ruin our Spring racing carnival.

In next week’s Age quiz; Is Simon Goodwin the right guy to lead the Melbourne Football Club? a) Yes b) No c) a point of ongoing debate at an infamous airport West Tatoo parlour

I have it on good authority that they’re all confident he’ll never turn the ball over again

Had read in one of the training reports that Bowey had shared he’d be training up on the wing

Looks like Trac is being attacked by a pair of aggressive poodles - did anyone jump in to help the poor bloke??

I’m sure it has been covered but did he play VFL games ala Jagga and if so how did he go against the bigger bodies?

The two key forward touted for first round don’t get taken tonight… there’s the evidence for the flat-earthers that the time of the KPP is coming to an end!

I’m sorry, misspellings a real trigger for me. Good news the club think that about him.

It’s ‘rapt’ but is this just your guess based on contract extension + coming back in good shape or have you heard something more from someone at the club?

TikTok is exploding (has exploded) as a platform. So too Snapchat. You are right in saying their performance in this space is important, especially for attracting, engaging (and monetising) younger demos. You’d hope our new CEO has more of a modern view of where we could go in this space.

Were we linked to Windsor in his original or late phantom last year?

The hair and the red jumper probably leading the witness somewhat but to me Tauru moves like Heeney; his leap, his timing, his pace, his clean hands
