The Jackson FIX

This reads like Gutnick & Daniher ‘lifted us’ to a prelim. We made the prelim in ‘94 under Balme.

What is Green’s job outside footy?

Also reliably told Joe informed Brad to explore Jewish AND non-Jewish options as a replacement coach

Apparently the topic of conversation shifted to Harrison Petty over dessert, with Joe adamant he should be moved back. Green was seen feverishly taking notes on a Smiggle notebook.

The midfielder we pick up at pick 5 will add more value next year (let alone the 13 beyond that) than an injury-prone Cerra.

Skip the first half of those highlights and you can then see some pretty good albeit raw talent. Be a confusing forward line with Roo and Tarau in there though. ROOOs everywhere

Geelong literally connected to everyone every season.

Hope we don’t deviate from our aim of landing a gun off half back. That’s our absolute priority in my eyes, back the current frwd line in to improve with another year under their belt and better method off half back. I know he is locked in for a few more years but I hope we’re poking around Lachie Ash. We’ve got the assets and cash to get something done.

What is happening here - has Christian requested the AFLPA investigate or is this something they are conducting as a matter of process?

Or the social media approach can lead the shaping/re-shaping of the brand, ala GWS. Their brand has taken shape from the actions of one person and started to endear them to a different audience. Anyway. Just be better at it Dees.

I miss the Gus

It’s a brand off!

Cats and Dogs fight like dogs and cats and let Bailey slip to the pre-season draft with the Dees snap him up with Gus’ money?

Were they wooden and rotting?

Sounds like we need an external review of the partially-external review!

That GWS fella would command more $$ than any others social/comms person in the league but you can be sure the club recoup those extra $$ (and more) by bumping up sponsor proposals by a few bucks after pointing to stats like this. The club is asleep at the wheel here.

Of the handful of mids that will go at the pointy end, is there one that stands out as best user of the ball/decision maker?

Can we close this thread? The only answer is Hawthorn.

I’ve read some wild stuff on this forum. This is on the podium.

Surely they’ve already struck an agreement in-principle. Reckon it was done quite a while ago.

I love the bloke and I’m still contemplating getting a BANG BANG BANG tattoo but there are other things to consider (alongside his past accolades) to get a balanced view of whether we listen to offers; a) struggle to finish top 10 in our b&f this year in a year we finished 10th b) documented to have been exhibiting behaviour not in line with our standards for a number of years at a time the club clearly needs to make some form of change c) brought the club to it’s knees at the end of last year because of his behaviour d) seems to be in a better place and there is a chance he can get back to his best but that is by no means guaranteed e) taking up a significant chunk of our salary cap for many years to come Based on all of that, hard to argue 2x 1st rounders is an awful deal not worth listening to.

I’d be more worried if we weren’t listening to reasonable offers.

Depends who’s enquiring

They’ll win this convincingly

The finals paradigm used to be ‘tough, contested footy’, which we aimed to master. This game is quick and the team executing well is on top. Our preferred style of footy out of date in the regular season and now out of date in the offseason.
