Chook

Every club participates in the draft, and every club's supporters have the right to expect their #1 pick to at least see out the first contract.

We booed Tom Scully for years, after at least serving out his initial contract. JHF did something that undermines the integrity of the draft basically. Imagine if every #1 did what he did.

Jeremy Finlayson looks like such an ammo-level footballer but is an absolute quality forward/ruck.

Drew the head high contact by raising the arm I thought. I'd still be ropable if it happened to Spargo or someone of that ilk with the right jumper on.

lol "it's simple" no one can even understand your run-on sentence let alone enact it on a footy field.

All credit to the Pies. They've found the next evolution of the game. Can anyone go with them?

Oh wow this just sums up the AFL right now like nothing else.

Just on another tack, here's my chat with my ever curious yet unwilling to offer her own interpretation mum…

Roo had a quiet game, but big men don't get smaller, and Roo plays so big.

You're not intimating that he's…biased, are you?

Roo continues with his goal assists. Makes the contest, then obscures the 3rd umpire's line of sight. Goal!!!

Rivers cramping. Get him off, Laurie on.

If 2021 May were playing with 2023 May, there may be a murder.

Oppo are s--scared of Roo. He'll be an absolute menace as soon as next year.

Roo has been held illegally all night, and he's finally getting noticed. Looking forward to a lot more of that.

And well they should be, if he can take a fly like that and go back to kick it.

Roo's goal that. Oppo defenders are already so scared of him they drag him to ground before the ball even arrives.

Just jumping on to say the umpiring in this game has been absolutely abysmal.

No ladder that still has unplayed games in it means anything. Actually, scratch that. No April ladder means anything, unplayed games or not.

Not sure Freo's draft haul from finishing low on the ladder this year will quite match what the Demons accomplished after 2019.

If you choose to hire management that only think that way, then you'll only get a certain type of advice.

Here's hoping. I can legit see Brown in our GF side, just not there today.

Going at over a goal a minute. Looking forward to 80 goals being scored tonight lol.

Whichever marketing guru came up with Gather Round has earned my begrudging respect. It’s a good play on words.

Massive news. Rivers despite a down year last year has proven to be an extremely reliable and consistent player across a few different positions. Can't wait to see what he looks like in 4 years time with his development so far.
