  1. I actually think the fact that Rowell and Anderson Both come from the Chargers and are close mates has pushed this decision over the line. The AFL want players to stay up there and this is their best chance to do so. I truly believe if the top 2 prospects were from different states, the decision would be different. I spoke to someone involved at Oakleigh on the weekend and he believes the Suns may specifically target Chargers players this draft for this very reason.

    I was sort of taking the pi$$, but you do what you need to do.. Hope you’re okay going forward man..

    I would just like to round out the year and thank the AFL for reminding me of the year that has passed. Not only highlighting every round but emphasising Liam Ryan’s mark of the year over Gawn and adding McDonald-Tipungwuti’s goal into the mix for goal of the year.

    You would like to think that would drive a young player like Gus. Whether something was physically or mentally wrong going into this year, he’d want to be fixing things.

    My mate loaded up on McCrae to finish top ten and Gill didn’t even have the decency to add some suspense to the last two rounds. Thanks [censored] head!

    Yeah, nah...it’s not bogan. It’s an attempt to be “quirky”. Blokes a massive nerd yet tries ridiculously hard to come off as a “crazy lad”.

    Waverley is straight off the Monash and and 5 minutes from Eastlink. Moorabbin isnt far down the Nepean when you live in Sandringham etc. Casey is another 20 minutes past the back of my nuts. I agree with the notion and it may well be the only answer we have...but geez it would make our club even less desirable to players than it already is. Unless we buy Cranbourne, bulldoze it and set up a luxury secure compound for all players and families.

    Actual footage of me watching next weeks Grand Final.
  10. Missed a set shot from 35 at a crucial time. He’s going to fit right in.

    Frustrated for a couple of weeks maybe.. Bloke would be rubbing his hands together with the team he’s got on his hands. This years achievement was premature. Id kill to have what they have. They play for keeps...something out players don’t do. It’s all too hard..

    Would take him in a heartbeat, but every chance he stays at the Pies for a lesser contract and a chance to have a crack at a flag.

    I think he’s saying if Frost goes we will likely get a second rounder back.
  14. All articles like this do is reinforce to the general football public, what a lightweight club they already thought we were. It’s kind of embarrassing...like @Mach5 pointed out, it’s clearly one of many points made by Rawlings, pin pointed by the journalist...but geez it makes us look like amateurs..
  15. Heard the news before it was released to the media and haven’t been able to stop thinking about it since..truly devastating. Danny was one of the good guys. Has hit home hard for me and I’m not entirely sure why...perhaps because he has three daughters and myself two, but I feel genuinely devastated for his wife and girls. No matter how someone appears overtly on the surface, we never really know how they are feeling inside. RIP Spud, I have always admired you, my condolences to your family and close friends.
  16. One of the greatest nights of my life (in recent memory anyway), not even joking. I feel sick...
  17. Let’s face facts and hindsight is a wonderful thing...the bloke is a champion and we made a blatant mistake, but an interview with an 18 year old Dusty Martin isn’t exactly something that would have caused a club to require restitching in the zipper region of their pants... The bloke can barely speak English now let alone when he was 18 years old..
  18. Will do my best to find out on Sunday at East Burwood’s Grand Final v Fair Park. If I have anything I will let you know...
  19. “and this is where you’ll have the back pack that we’ll give you once you’ve signed, then it’s just a short 20 minute walk to the oval”

    If Petracca seriously wants to play in the middle then the answer is pretty simple. He needs to work with the club to lighten his frame and build his tank. The onus is on him to do so. All good and well to want for things, but you have to put yourself in the best possible position to do so. Id personally love to see him in the guts...the ball’s in your court Christian.

    Sorry to hijack your thread @Superunknown. However take heart in knowing your thread is now officially trve cvlt. ??

    That’s exactly what everyone said last year.... ...and the year before.

    Mate I will admit my taste in BM is very limited, I’m more of an OSDM man but still have my black metal go to’s.. Will check them out though for sure.
