Does this mean you're suggesting we abandon the 'selfish" tag? I, for one, am with you, but you better move carefully round these here parts. Or carry a large umbrella.
I don't mind waking in the rain...😆

Can't remember if there's a thread about the importance of Frittata, but he ought to be the most influential offensive player in our list at the moment. Besides his goal kicking, he must have a lot of score involvements.
Should be AA this year IMO.

This season he has gone from the Dees being guaranteed to go undefeated to missing the Top 4 to still a chance to missing the Top 4 again to keeping the faith. If we lose next week his head might explode.
Wouldn't surprise me if he predicted the Dees to be relegated to the VFL if we can't defeat the filth...

Collingwood AGAIN by less than a kick. 😡
Telling you this way of winning won't be sustainable in September. Collingwood maybe one of the worst finals teams percentage-wise in the last decade

For better or worse loyalty is not a thing to the kids coming through these days. They grow up watching NBA & NFL where players, the champions too, regularly change sides.
The difference being that in the NFL or NBA top draft picks usually play at the very least 5 or 6 years with the teams that picks them.

The accepted view seems to be that he would stay a couple of years if no deal can be done. It is an opportunity for him to go home and play for the club he barracked for.
IMO we have been pragmatic and started looking at what we can get out of it, rather than keep him for a couple of years and go through all of this again for another year.
We can really plug some list holes if we are smart.
Didn't he barrack for the Weagles? I thought his idol was Nic Nat

Don't worry about Collingwood, they are just lucky. Luck doesn't win you finals.

You do know where his family and mates live, don’t you?
I never buy the narrative of 'homesick', FFS we live in 2022 not 1970. You are just a 3 hour flight from home. Not saying it is not a contributing factor but most definitely the money weighs more into the decision.

Watching Oliver it is clear he is still hampered by his broken thumb. His normally instantaneous clean ball takes were still absent and his handball skills were suppressed. May need another couple of weeks to fully recover. Costing him at least ten possessions a game.
Most importantly, can he still win the Brownlow?🤔

I have the feeling we will surpass the 70k mark next year, regardless of the outcome of this year's finals.

Please keep their score under 100, don't want the streak to end!

Geelong, Richmond, Collingwood.. why do they always seem to have deep pockets and cap space? Surely they run out of those if year in year out target key players (on top coin) from opposition teams.

Best game of Lever for the season. Hopefully he can carry it all the way until the finals.

I don't really care who wins the premiership. Question should be , who you don't want to win it... For me I don't want to see a Carlton, Richmond or Collingwood premiership. IMO the only one with real chances from those 3 is Richmond.

And gee whiz. Oliver runs our midfield, @binman. Petracca wouldn't get it half the time if Oliver wasn't giving it to him. Petracca has dynamic moments and could turn a GF as we've seen, but over the four quarters I'd have Oliver, but love Trac too. 😜
My thoughts exactly.
Oliver is the quiet hard worker, Petracca the flash and dash.
You rarely see Oliver MIA in a game, even in his "worst" performances.

He's special. Leading the AFLCA MVP again too, despite Gawn and Trac also getting plenty of votes.
He's just like a big kid playing at his local footy club, you can see how he enjoys every single time he is out there hurting people and grabbing the pill.
Has there ever been any back to back champion player of the year?

Would be great to discuss how many B&F Clarry will win when he is done playing footy... 😲 I am continuously gobsmacked and in awe when I see him play.
Top 5 MFC players all time?

I wonder who are in our wish list at the moment, thinking of next season and beyond. Surely a key Full Forward.

You don't know player managers do you?
Managers they just want to milk the cow as much as possible, don't they get paid on the basis of the contracts they procure for their players?

Just need to listen to the Binman; he can always find arguments for and data to support it!
