    Can we please have a tedious back and forth about the difference between a logo and an emblem? Approx. 70 pages worth. Thanks rp

    Oh jeez
  4. Groan I don’t read posts or books, and I feel things upside down but never back to front.
  5. Love some mature bodies while we have our stars in their prime.

    That’s a false economy; late picks in the draft are looking across all available, scouted players. You can make ‘needs’ based calls with those picks. However, the SSP decision is working from a pool of train-on players over summer at the club and any that chose to train elsewhere. Whoever is most promising AND agrees to come is who you should put on the list. Perhaps the better place to lean on ‘needs’ is who you invite to train with the club over summer.

    If your making a decision on SSP based on what the best 22 needs - god help us. Culley surely gets a go. Whether he ‘has a spot in the 22’ is as meaningless as speculating who is going to get the next season ending knee injury…

    Poor kid. He will be a great player, just delayed a year.
  9. When we drafted him he was ‘“‘two years away’ from being ‘two years away’” He may surprise… Apologies to Fran Fraschilla who coined that a decade ago.

    You’re posting on a fan forum dedicated to the AFL… Must be doing something right. Regardless of your personal anecdotes of your friend group minus those who don’t like sport and minus those that are already invested in the code - it’s hard to argue the sport isn’t doing well. There are those that long for the glory days of the unsustainably brutal and increasingly foggy past - but they are the lenses of rose colour.
  11. And Max isn’t allowed to overrule.
  12. Maybe keep that in mind when you next get your dander up about anything you reply to.
  13. Yes, tragically for some on here and their training reports, we can play with only 23 players at a time…
  14. I think a smart person can learn in that time. However, let’s keep in mind that we will have 23 players learning a new gameplan in 2025…
  15. Our supporter base Googles ‘Facebook’ and gets their information there. … Its actually a big problem writ large
  16. Our Rd 1 small forward tore his Achilles so there is an opening… Melksham has been in rehab, as has Chandler. And there seems to be a desire to keep Pickett in the middle. I think Henderson is a huge chance for GWS.

  18. Only a Melbourne supporter would put into the prompt what you put in to get that response.
  19. Alright then, might have another person to compete with Kade Chandler for the ANB role.
  20. Let’s just wait on that
  21. The game is tilting… to smaller people?
  22. rpfc replied to DeeSpencer's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    ‘Plenty of small forwards’ Are these small forwards in the room with us right now?
  23. rpfc replied to KLV's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Yes, it shows an absolute eagerness to avoid Pickett in the forward line for the entirety of the game.
  24. I can’t wait for @Cranky Franky’s write up of the second round of the draft in November, he is so attached to the talent that is available at our pick…
