Well we didn’t have to wait too long for it. #freekickbulldogs

Wouldn’t be surprised to see Szybkowski play for Casey as a local

ESPN and its employees should stick to American sports

Agree Dazzle. Although short he is strongly built, clean with the ball and makes good decisions. He is also a quality leader that is a highly competitive type. Played as a mid that went forward for Caulfield Grammar. The one that’s got me surprised though is another Caulfield boy inMitch Szybkowski. I thought we may have a nibble as he trained with us and is a very Melbourne type player and did some training with us pre season. For rookies a developing ruck but we have lost a bit of foot speed over the trade period so if we can find someone that will provide a bit of outside run with x factor then I think we will have a balanced list.

I hope we fix that next year by getting Nick Watson

I think we take Szybkowski if he is still there.

Fair enough as well, he spent more than enough time playing in the two’s this year!!!!

I can only think that this was a bit of a sledge to Elise O’Dea who left for Carlton who are sponsored by Hyundai but could be way off the mark there

Even Daisy mentioned our facilities or lack thereof in her post game grand final interview televised to a national audience. Well done Agent Daisy!!!

Saudi Arabia

Honestly Daisy should stop the game, ask for a head count and tell the umpires to to go and [censored] stand next to the Brisbane players.

Death, taxes and Goldy caught holding the ball

Don’t suppose you’re a Kiwi Demonstone….. not that there is anything wrong with that.

Unfortunately can’t see a footy ground or training facility at this proposed development over the rail yards near Fed Square by Matthew Guy.

Be interesting to know if we were offered a captains run on the ground. If we were denied on grounds that the turf is new we should question if the ground is fit for play.

Saw a bit of Caulfield Grammar this year, can also roll through the midfield and has some tricks. Definitely the one I want.

I agree Pates it would be a start. I would hope that there would be enough enterprise in the coaching box to realise that there are 18 players on the ground not just rucks, any danger we could use them at kick ins. There seriously needs to be some lessons learnt from this year.

The Mens comp has a fair head start on the womens comp and to say that the AFLW is a token competition is complete ignorance. I love my football, I coach my daughters team and have done so for the last 5 years and each year the standard gets better. In fact I also started yesterday with a rival AFL clubs Next Generation program yesterday as 7 of my girls are in their squad. The young girls coming thru are incredibly passionate about the game and the skills and their footy IQ is strong. The game is in great shape. I said it in an earlier post in my opinion our AFLW team play a much watchable brand of football than our male team. PM me if you want details of the Chelsea Girls next training session, you can come down and hold the tackle bag if you like.

Great post!!!! While I think the bond between players and coaches in the mens team is good the brand that our women play is a hell of a lot more watchable than that of our men. I do understand with 2 less players on the field does leave more space but it is our intent to attack that I love. Our Mens team is far too conservative in many regards. And yes I am aware that our men won a premiership in 2021 but I strongly believe that our women will in 2022.

I agree. If not then we absolutely have to explore other options away from the MCG precinct. Commonwealth games are regional so no help there. Other than that the only things being built in Victoria is hospitals and railway infrastructure. We need to think outside the square and partner up with another party whether it be the Melbourne Racing Club at Caulfield Racecourse a private school, share an elite purpose built facility with the Australian Netball Team or anything but this fixation being at the MCG is holding us back. It really is time that the board gives members a real update of where things are at.

Hopefully our Beyoncé game plan of “to the left to the left” is a thing of the past now.

If he can get his body right then for me Christian Salem.

Not a bad point you make. I’d like to think we are mature enough as a club to make it work if he’s the best fit.

Not sure how it works, but I really hope St Kilda have to wear Ratten’s payout plus the wages of the new senior coach in their soft cap. If for no other reason than being incompetent as a club.

Wouldn’t mind Ratten to come back as our midfield coach. Yze if he stays to look after our forwards and Stafford to focus on the rucks.
