The question I have is why didn’t Goodwin try May at FF

It is a strange situation but I also respect King and both clubs for working through it. Imagine if Carlton also did the right thing and went and got Kelly. What is Geelong supposed to do? Happy to begin to hold people to contracts tbh.

So it’s been said… If Cal Twomey is correct then let’s not trade him then, yeah? He is worth more than that and we should keep him. Glad that is settled.

He has, but we just can’t find the paperwork

Personally, I hope he McLeaves…

It is life and death being a forward. So May was a forward as a teenager… It’s a nerve and you hit it - that’s all. For any kids watching out there - I don’t care if you’re tall and can take a mark there is far more to being a forward than that.

I was just listing the talls. And no, I doubt McAdam will play another game for us… shame really.

Ok, so I hate to break it to you here… Petty is a serviceable forward and a great backman. JVR is very dim forward that has very few tricks and is easily quelled by defenders. Johnson is a battler but has not shown he can be an AFL calibre forward. Kentfield is untried at senior level and will need help and be shielded even if he does play. Jefferson is nowhere, just nowhere, and I don’t like to talk down on players too heavily so I will leave it there. Mihocek immediately becomes our best tall and provides some cover for whoever of that list of NQR forwards you want to try each week.

Before we ring people up in the town square - his agent has been told to talk to other clubs. Perhaps it was another club that ‘leaked’ that information. As Sam Mitchell has made plainly clear - there is no dignity left between clubs.

As a forward, I have had my fill of this… why would he be ‘very good’? Because he is big and can take a mark? There is more to it than that. You don’t know his instincts to exploit space, to create space, to get to the wrong area to help a teammate get the ball, etc It is the most lazy counterfactual for an AA FB to just click their fingers and be a forward.

The NEAFL! God, that’s a blast from the past. The worst thing about that league is it brought QLD grass diseases that completely ruined Ainslie’s home ground, Alan Ray Oval. Sad!

They would laugh as we trading a superior player for a 2nd forward who is as arrogant as the day is wide.

Thats a tad harsh and he is young enough to be around when we are good. He needs to get on top of his injuries tho.

Ah yes, that’s why would be lucky to get any usable pick. We would take ND120.

For May? On what planet?

Yes, Tim Lamb’s operating thesis of list management has been blown apart the last 18 months.

I see it differently - he is respectfully told that we need to get games into younger talls and now he knows where he stands and should look elsewhere rather than play at Casey and fume.

Looks like we are all set. Build. The. 23.

For some it is - my wife lost a fifth of her blood… I like you bing but we screwed up

At this rate, Buckley will have to coach… …Carlton

It won’t be for spoils over the line. So it will diminish midfields slightly that are reliant on clearance but not overly. Also Max’s superpower is his marking and his workrate, not his tapwork.

Who is we? I would tell him he is going nowhere so get your agent to ready some quotes about wanting to stay. And what a callous bloody outlook you have. Footy may be a business but how you treat people and care for them is literally what the people that turned this footy club around preached for years. Paul Roos made a brand out of it and we have so abandoned that ‘care’ that we don’t even know what makes a good club anymore. Let’s hope Guerra, King, Smith, and whoever replaces Richardson give a flying f.

And you don’t need to show respect but your opinion can be called categorically wrong. That is also an opinion. It all so pathetic how the petulant children on here forget to mention what precipitated the ‘petulant Petracca’… A near death experience that was poorly handled by our own admission and a stagnant FD that has seen a near total broom being swept through the place with more to come when contracts are up at the end of 2026. So I don’t really know what the f the Petracca haters are on about tbh. You think it was unfounded? Show me the receipts because everything we have done has vindicated his opinion and his actions to escape - except we pulled the trap door ourselves.

Caro doesn’t like non-footy people in footy. So she will immediately see Guerra as a failure waiting to reveal himself, and hence questioning of Ponissi who would be exalted space in sports admin in Australia. Helps to have Bellamy there but he would know what a leader looks like. Again, I would pay it little heed. So no spending of heed. Keep your heed in the… bank?

I’m sorry, you stroked how many members?
