Spargo is a decent kick i50. His problem as a forward its he cannot kick longer than he is tall

Good lord man! I certainly hope not. If we haven't put games into young key backs and are relying on Tmac in 3 years time we are in deep trouble Like May, the guy can barely bend below his knees! Next year is it for Tmac. Been a wonderful player, premiership player, will be fondly remembered

Also Tom Barass. Rinse and repeat

Clarry and our future 1st for Dogga Must keep Kossie. Must keep Kossie. Must keep Kossie. Must keep Kossie. Must keep Kossie. Must keep Kossie. Must keep Kossie. Must keep Kossie. Must keep Kossie...

When Hawks had a set shot between 15-45m out, even on an angle, I felt they we more likely than not to kick the goal. Whenever we had a set shot from the same distance, especially around 30m out, I had no confidence we were even a 50/50 chance

One thing is sure... we'd be rooted without Max

Dominating play, can kick goals. Groundhog day

WTF is the reasoning behind our forwards going up one handed for marks???

Jeffo is a loooooooong way off AFL level @picket fence

What happened to Clarry? Is he still alive??? Did I miss something?

I agree with old dee that Melksham is a faster footballer than Jeffo, in that he creates fast, attacking ball movement to our advantage. His foot speed may not be quicker (though he's by no means slow), but his ability to pressure opponents into mistakes (ie. turnovers) and his super vision and deft kicking IMO mean we are more likely to create play quickly, whether that's fast ball movement, bullet passes or splitting a pack for kozzie or chin to crumb onto. Jeffo hasn't shown much of any of these things, however it's not apples with apples. He hasn't the experience yet and so far relies upon separation from the contest to do his best work, which is mark and a set shot on goal I believe he'll come good. Needs game time and significant development. A less crowded forward line and better delivery i50 would help massively. Imagine him in a similar forward line to Collingwoods where there's plenty of space with Daicos, Sidey, Pendles, Houston, Quaynor and others feeding him. Not that they need him or I'm comparing Collingwood to us, moreso highlighting that our 4 year habit of long bombing i50 kills the craft of a KPF And Kolt needs to put in a good game very soon. He shows flashes, but doesn't get involved enough for my liking. Yes, yes, like Jeffo, he only has a handful of games under his belt, but for all his speed and confidence, he doesn't do enough. Chutzpah will only get you so far. Had the chance to nail a few last week, none of which he looked confident kicking. A 25 possession game with 3 goals would do him the world of good. I wouldn't drop him, just that he needs a breakthrough game soon for his own development

Speed i50 and lowering eyes produces goals for Freo. Who would've thought it?! 🙄 Should done this a quarter ago

I know the Coll backline is very good, but long bombing i50 is just playing into their hands... literally.

Good to see Freo have been closely copying the Mbourne strategy of bombing it mindlessly i50 to a opposition player. Imitation is the highest form of flattery!

Oliver is not worth Geelong's first pick. That's red n blue wishful thinking. He'd get a late 20s or early 30s pick based upon his $1mill+ per year and his output over the last 18 months. A salary dump, to put it bluntly The cap space would help if we were going for a big fish or 2 Kossie should be getting 2 x firsts, one would need to be in top 10. We'd might pay some of his contract to negotiate for better picks Sure, I'd like both to stay, especially if Clarry can get back to full fitness. Can't see it happening though And Reid would cost 3 x 1sts and $1.5m per year minimum

My god, how did we lose to either of these rubbish teams, particularly Norf. They look absolutely terrible. [censored] game

I can't see us sacking Goody during this season or during the 2026 season. If it is to be, I would think the end of this year or end of season 2026. That gives us the best chance of securing the person we really want Goody might just right the ship, and with a couple of good off season recruits, as we did with May and Lever, who knows what might happen. However, if we lose Trac, Clarry and Kozzie, IMO it's fair to say we are rooted

Confirmed, or just a supporter's guess?

Plus crowd support and as a result, umpiring favour. Unless the opposition is winning by 40 points at 3/4 time, you know the umpires will bring them back into it

I think it's time we put games into players we see as being part of our next flag. Get some momentum going and we look a better team faster.

Duursma has been a woefull addition to the bombers. What did they trade to get him?

Umpires definitely giving Coll the benefit of the doubt many times. I've seen 3 or 4 throws and a couple of insufficient attempts not paid to the bombers. Wet weather or not, they should be paid. They usually are to Coll... surprise, surprise
