And get to the games. @Sydney_Demon - most Melbourne supporters have little experience following a good team let alone a great one. For those that AFL is their only footy exposure - it’s understandable if not also boorish and annoying that a ‘bad’ 10 min period colours the game for them.

I think you would lose him anyway if you try to turn him into a lock down defender lol . Midfielders want to midfield. I prefer Spargo, Chandler and ANB in the rigid forward roles to allow Kozzie to be more expansive in the midfield/fwd spark role. Kozzie is just better and more impactful. Also, Rivers looks like graduating from HBF University and becoming a solid mid who is quicker and is a better kick than Jordon… These things happen to good teams…

Short memory maybe. Ben Brown has his issues atm with his body but to label him with the same brush as Josh Schache (no offence to Josh) is just lazy and unfair. BB has shown himself to be a great player and I hope he can return to something near his best because, to be perfectly honest, he is our best hope come September 2023.

From now on, you’re the only KC we care about… Oh and Kade Chandler!

Couldn’t get past the bit when you compared Brown and Schache…

He’s serviceable. It’s still the glaring gap on our list moving into next year.

Yes, it is counter intuitive because it is against intuition. We either want people to show a duty of care and look for those to show that care, or we want to stick to ancient football universal ‘intent’ and tell players to throw themselves around with a single focus on the ball. Jacob looked where the ball will land and then looked at the player that was there to ensure that he didn’t make contact with his fist to the head of the player in his attempt to spoil. Free kick Ballard. No report. GET ME A WIG AND PUT ME IN COACH!

No, we have already established he is a left footed Nick Daicos.

I keep saying; AI isn’t ready yet. The simulation is failing

As Redleg said - appeal, get a few fresh nuffies to look at it and they will see what the 98% see. It’s just maths.

I indubitably agree.

Yes. Although the word ‘woke’ has now so many meanings - it is the word of the lazy in this country and the malevolent in the US. I would suggest people using actual words with actual meaning but whatever - I am not here to tell people not to use a word, only that they are damned in eternal hellfire if they do use it…

Selection integrity is a tricky thing. It doesn’t apply to a third of your list, but when it applies, IT APPLIES!

Oh, my bad @Jaded No More - I have been blind with rage for a couple hours now. And WCW… DISAPPOINTING

A full what?! Oh, retraction… right, retraction. RE TRAC TION

Well that was a ride… I, for one, will always remember the 25 minute period when @Jaded No Moreloved ADRIAN FREAKIN ANDERSEN.

Played well for being unwell. Measure of a pretty good player.

I will admit that time are changing. But as long as vape on my HARMLESS e-cigarettes, while watching the NON-RACIST Tucker Carlson on FoxNews, before I LEGALLY shirtfront someone to the point of concussion - I will be sound as a pound!

We always do this - the established recruit is but a few weeks away from being another teams cast off. The former Demon the one that got away… Some still long for Weideman, or baker, or Bedford, hell there is someone pining for Michael Newton!

No, you have no right to just blatantly throw something out there that makes me feel this old. I’m getting my QC.

If we didn’t drop Fritsch in the last few years with his tepid defensive efforts we certainly aren’t going to do it now he is in our top 10 players. I think he has been a lot better in that regard FWIW.

Our lawyers to the MRO:

Season over if they don’t. You can’t make up 3 and 6. Not this year.

I care more about the differential of clean, chest facing clearances. I think we do ok in that. Post-clearance possession is basically answering that question of how clean your clearances are when you do get them so how are we going in that stat?
