JVR will be a monster KPF of this league. Top 4 for years to come.

Port number one on that ladder, followed closely by the lion cubs.

Don't matter, he is Hinkley 2.0 Will be sacked in 2 or 3 years with no flag to show for. Mark my words.

Definitely a courageous endeavour from Fritsch. He was even very aggressive and physical off-ball with Andrews, despite being 10 cm shorter and 15 kilos lighter.

On the kicking issues, is it time to move on from Choco?

They mentioned on Fox Footy that the second quarter last night was our best scoring quarter since the Bang Bang Bang in 2021 , and very similar in that we were smashing them at stoppages.

What about that second quarter. The main issue has been that we play a great quarter here and there, but can't seem to be able to put 4 consistent quarters in a single match.

This is true, so this off season will be key in defining the short term success of this list. Should have some draft capital and cap space to make 2 or 3 interesting moves.

I propose a fun excercise on this fine winter morning 🥶🥶 Of those players listed here, use a current player in the competition (or someone that played in this millenia) to describe their ceilings.... JVR - Jack Riewoldt And so on

Those people in yellow/green are never accountable for anything, they can stink up a game and still be rewarded with more games. Where's the umpire review board or something of that nature? I guess they keep things semi professional, as they are not even paid as professional umpires.

I hear you but this most definitely feels like the last dance for Milkshake. I can't see him playing next year so, if he's going to play this year at all do it sooner rather than later (we won't be playing in September).

And Taj.

We are having way too many goalless quarters, even multiple in a single match. This has been one of the main reasons to find ourselves in this position today (likely to miss finals).

I am really very pleased with Rivers. Just needs to improve decision making and some more polished disposal skills, could be a gun midfielder with great pace and size, like a Cripps but with silky smooth use of the ball.

We do need a refresh in the coaching staff though. Mark Williams kicking school hasn't produced the desired results. We have a ruckman as fwd line coach.

Khalani White to take Max's place🤞🏻

What's the verdict? Rebuild mode?

Too bad we didn't take the two first rounders last season. I guess in hindsight with the resurgence of TMac we definitely didn't need him, not if he was going to perform like he has.

The 2021 windows yes. Are we capable of opening the 2026 window?

Not much that can be done now. Our percentage is too low. Petracca is out. And we still don't have the best fwd line. I think we should keep playing the kids as much as possible, and start to think the strategy and selection for next year.

Is the Petty fwd experiment finished? Surely if Melksham can start next game we can send Petty back to his natural position?

Could be worse, could be Kelvin.

Should I mortgage the house? Asking for a friend 😁

Not planning to die anytime soon 😁
