Cal Twomey in the latest ep of Gettable talking about the small forward-midfielder role e.g. Papley, Kossie, Rachele as the most valuable in footy currently https://www.afl.com.au/podcasts/gettable -
Talented player prepared to sacrifice his own game to play necessary roles for MFC team success. He could be making more money playing midfield at another team but that's not his priority. He's stuck with us to win flags. Next captain IMO.

Yes as @layzie says the $23 is for your reserved seat. In theory it's going to be in a better location than a GA seat if you just turn up. "Better" depends on where you prefer to sit though. I prefer to be behind the goals over the wing but that's not necessarily thought of as "better" by the ticket allocators.

My eyes aren't young either Bimbo. I could be mistaken and you could be right. Anyway it's early in the week and they might have just stuck with last weekend's sets and it doesn't indicate anything for vs Richmond.
-
I saw it differently Bimbo. I saw Schache, Laurie, Harmes, Hibberd and Howes with the "Casey" group, while TMac, Sparrow and Tomlinson to name three possibly in question were with the main group. Gawn and Lever were with the main group and as discussed above Viney wasn't and Spargo wasn't there.
-
Brown for TMac who is not consistent Schache for Melksham (sub) because we want two "rucks" Jordon for Sparrow Laurie for Spargo Lever for Tomlinson Really 4 changes. Jordon and Melksham are swapping in the 23. That gives us Gawn, Hibberd, Sparrow, Harmes, Spargo and TMac, if necessary, fresh for North off the 5 day break.

So is 186cm or 188cm "a bit short" for a player whose "AFL traits are ball handling, strength and kicking" I'm genuinely confused now.
-
There's a number of successful medium marking forwards in Sestan's height range: Rohan, Fritsch, Zurhaar, Membrey, Heeney, Melksham, Stephenson, Breust. Jamie Elliott is 178cm. They need some X-factor to succeed but that's what he purports to have.

A bit more investigation through the club websites show that Penfolds are a 3rd tier sponsor of both clubs.
-
What's going on here? Are Penfolds with us or Carlton or are they spreading it around? https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/blues-booze-schmooze-carlton-heavies-spend-1m-at-penfolds-20230416-p5d0t9.html

AMW showing some good intensity. Lovely ground ball pickup and handball by Jefferson in the build up to the Valentine goal.

The AFL need to get Hardwick to GC next year. He's done at Richmond and they're heading down the Hawthorn route under him, but he could make a difference at the Suns. I don't like him but then I don't like Clarkson or Lyon either and they are improving their new clubs. Longmire would be even better but why would he leave the young Swans who are on the rise? I don't think Simpson and Hinkley have a hard enough edge to fix what's wrong up there.

Fixed it for you.
Revamp of the AFL site homepage by a web designer who's a Saints fan? https://www.afl.com.au/
I used to hate Esserdun (sic) but now I just pity them.
Yes but as @Jaded No More and @jnrmacposted it could equally mean we know Kossie is going. Note that we signed Angus long term probably around the time we knew Jackson was going. Anyway, absolutely tremendous news that Riv has signed on!
And surpassing Hawthorn's legendary pet memberships, think about the OPPORTUNITY for an Aquatic Creatures membership category for all those millions of submarine Melbournians in the south-west quadrant of your map!
