Jackson is a luxury that we won’t need until Gawn is done 3 years from now. But when that happens the outlay to get a star ruckman and one of the 15 best players in the comp would be ridiculous. If he stays it will be within our cap framework. I am sure his agent would be pushing for more but Jackson himself would have Gawn and co in his ear saying what they have done to keep the band together. The fact that Petracca will average $900k through his prime is stunning. Oh, and lastly, you don’t let players like this go. Kids a unicorn.

I always thought they were better when they traveled to call the game. I wonder if Paramount will bring anything into the sport when it comes to broadcasting - our calling of the game has always been for those with viewing impairment “Smith has it on the wing and kicks long” and has descended to boys club nonsense “Hodgey got you Bristle! Let’s share two year old in jokes with Richo here!” or Fox harping like Underwood with Jackson or when Dwayne opens his mouth at all. We are getter better at the ‘around the game hosting’ - Brayshaw is good at that, Lyon and Riewoldt provide that, Kath Loughnan has been excellent and doesn’t let things descend into mates talking to each other. Maybe commentating is next.

These guys would get a rest if a rest would help. Zorko had surgery on his ankle and looked seriously hampered playing HBF earlier in the year and he just said ‘it’s just discomfort and it best if I work through the pain’ and if you saw him against the Crows you wouldn’t think he had pre season surgery. Anywho, Lever is playing so he can get criticised for form but just heads up, he is boot off at half time and proppy as anything after games.

We have a bunch of decisions for the end of the year around Weideman and our depth. But that is for later in the year, enjoy the ride. And not looking for perfection in the VFL.

He will get a couple Liam. Bad look. Chandler was worried for the bloke onfield when he saw the replay. It’s a real tough one, he pinned and rolled and then released too late for his momentum.

He’s injured still. Right foot, probably plantar fascia related. Working through it, but does a month off help him? Got to trust Selwyn.

That’s great, can you plug your phone in please?

It’s not fixed and there are two teams that finished 2nd and 4th last year outside the 8. So probability is not determinative, it’s indicative. And there are exceptions and I think both the Dogs and Power will break that probability.

Buckley will either be in TV or head coaching. Don’t think he will do a ‘senior assistant gig.’

Would love the commercial dept of the club to comment on this notion.

It has been obvious subtext to whenever it is brought up in Gus & Gawny. I don’t disagree with your point but he feels he is a midfielder, he wants to be on ball and he will either reconcile that or he will leave to try and be that at Fremantle. That’s my read of it. I am just going to enjoy 2022 and his part in it. Enjoying the moment, and getting to more games that some Dees fans who live 700kms closer than I do - that’s what rpfc is allllll about.

I have heard internally they like Hird. Yze would be suited as they have established senior players and should be better. It’s not a rebuild.

He’s off to the Saints? Ah, WYL is right then. #nohoper #whybother #wontwinaflagwithhimonteam #durkadurr

Nothing you can glean from that and also some education: ”Let’s bring his brother here!” His brother would demand midfield time immediately he is that good. So goodbye Viney or Petracca if you want someone to actually play a defensive role in there… And he will cost us a top pick and a good young player so who is leaving? ”We better get blah blah for him!” He is a Restricted Free Agent which means the best we will get is ND19 unless we are willing to match his salary and keep him and that may break our cap, so set your expectations. There you go, you’re welcome! 🤗

Hmm. Might be worth going to see live almost.

We pushed them over the cliff, these years of bubbling mid-table mediocrity are just the rock edges that they are hitting on the way down. Even the ridiculous discussion on the ground from Scott to not discuss their reversion back to slow kick ‘keeping’s off’ is a sign of their mental weakness - both in reverting and in not owning up to it.

Yes, and when we tried to do it, we got fined while being told we didn’t do it… #OldMelbourne They should rest as many as they can - they would get more output and the exisiting players don’t need another 100 point loss to endure.

It also has a lot to do with how the Eagles treated his brother Hamish. I heard mismanaged injuries and subpar communications.

It’s this atm. Who knows how it may change in the future.

He plays on the footy now from what I can tell

‘Yesterday’: Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hang on a second, he is as my bloke?! Clarkson, Simpson, will see if I can claim Hardwick, and… look I will even cop Malthouse but Ross Lyon? We had one date and he couldn’t consummate. Even had this weird draw thing where we all came back the next week to try again and it didn’t happen. He’s more of a ‘Never Was’! ’Never Was’: Here we go again?! Always shuffling me these people. Can I just be left alone? I am taking Voss until he does something. Yes, of course as a coach. Jeez.

Once you get past the monotone there is something of substance in what he repeats.

I could be wrong and I have been in the past - but in my experience when the apprentice come up against the master they will take some time to overcome because the master has seen more tactical shifts to overcome their own system and can employ them easily against the apprentice. Also Freos midfield is nowhere near Brisbanes and ours. Apologies to Brayshaw. I see Brisbane as the biggest challenger.
