I'm a massive fan as well, but at the end of the day he stitched us up. Consumed so much club resources purely to get him right, and finally looked to be getting back near his best. Got told how it was gonna be at his exit, and spat it. Glad he's gone, and full disclaimer, my opinion only. The only way that trade makes sense is if he's on a 3rd strike. Now I'm not a betting man, even though I'll have a little something on Mister Me tomorrow, but I'd be very tempted to punt on Oliver not playing too many more games of AFL, if any. Will probably be phrased as a career ending XXXXXX injury. Batter up

Mister Me?

Apologies, you are correct. Running well before Christmas - not full training. So he's definitely further back, by some margin.

Thanks for that, very interesting. So realistically, given he thinks he'll be into full training before Christmas, Tommy Matthews isn't coming from as far back as Lindsay did last year?

Just out of interest, can anyone recall last year, when exactly did Lindsay get into full training?

Well I for one am hoping those 2 first rounders are called 'Bailey' and 'Humphrey'

Absolutely fantastic report. Thank you so much. How did Howes go, I'm interested to know where he fits going into 2026? He has talent, but just couldn't make it stick in the 1s. His 2024 year with Casey, waxing with Tomlinson in the back half was absolutely something else.

Does his accountant come with???

Bigger openings in the Pommie bowling department at this point. Hard to work out how they could bowl this slowly and poorly after the first innings. The odds suggested this would happen as well. Reckon Hansie Cronje would be proud

Was Durrsma that good to be referred to as dominant in those games? That's not how I recall it, but I may well be wrong. I thought he (WD) was ok without doing a great deal.

we won't be getting another free

The AFL loves a bully

They will dial that right up in the last term (and get away with it)

How is that kicking in danger when they didn't pay the one earlier?

Suno. DIY, it's awesome.

They can be sticky too

Hey there Boo Boo

How about the nickname 'Boo', as in 'Boo Boo'. Yogi Bear's smaller best mate.....

Yesssss, jackpot. Been screaming out to get this kid. He's a ripper. After the junior career he's had I reckon this might be a wake up call for him only going in the rookie draft. Has a big future.

Settled, we shall call young Tom 'Dyson'

Operation 'Get Bear' in full effect. He looks like a ripper though. What was the injury from this year, guessing it wasn't growth spurt related....

Lek means small in Thai, so for me that would be a 'silent but deadly' kind of situation.

This bloke is all in, love him. But I think we can do something with his nickname. Yes, at the Pies his nickname was Checkers. But of course we have a famous one of them already. Now that he's moved from the deadsh!ts to the Dees, how about we rename him Chess! Or 3D, or even 4D.
