PREGAME: Rd 03 vs Carlton
Would be interesting 13 cm shorter than Gawn and averaged 1 hit-out per game last year.

Former Brisbane Lion Leigh Ryswyk becomes first openly gay AFL player
I thought that "woke" was just a cuss-word for the angry right. It avoids the brutal taskmaster of logic. It should not be assumed that those who use the term have something meaningful to communicate other than their discomfort and anger. BTW Figjam is still a poo-poo head.

FYI Lügenpresse ist ein politisches Schlagwort, das polemisch und mit herabsetzender Absicht auf mediale Erzeugnisse gerichtet ist und sich seit der Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts im deutschen Sprachraum nachweisen lässt.

POSTGAME: Rd 02 vs Fremantle
Yes, he is. Reports from this weeks training is that he had the boys practicing receiving poor handpasses rather than just pumping up the soccer ball. This suggests that he can adapt.

I thought that I might be gilding the lily and took a conservative approach.

It did when the wiz temporarily took up 8 before returning to 33. He spoke moving to the row with Neitz etc, (possibly called Hollywood??)

The State of the Salary Cap?
They were unnecessary risks. Your heart-soul players need only 3-4 years. If they want to stay, they will renew. If not, being contracted doesn't keep them. The risk of being drafted by Norf is sufficient incentive to take a trade.

2026 Predictions
4th to 7th A lot of players started their careers well and went stale. Entry into 50 became farcical as did the lack of tall targets. The returning senior players were dumped straight into the seniors. I have great hope of King acting more rationally.

Welcome to Demonland: Latrelle Sumner-Pickett
It must be the restricted view from the dumpster. But he played 3 games with the next 2 yielding 1 goal and 6 disposals then 1 point and 8 disposals. refer https://sanfl.com.au/league/clubs/glenelg/1022677/?league=sanfl&season=2025

Welcome to Demonland: Latrelle Sumner-Pickett
I am of course, omnipresent. I also refresh my memory on-line, e.g. https://sanfl.com.au/league/clubs/glenelg/1022677/?league=sanfl&season=2025 So as people say 16 disposals and 4 goals in his first game at SANFL level. But 1 goal and 6 disposal, then 1 behind and 8 disposals for the next 2 games.

Welcome to Demonland: Xavier Taylor
Yes, he is too short to cover up-coming FF and CHF. This is no point trying him forward and MFC already has many 193-194 cm forwards.

Welcome to Demonland: Xavier Taylor
You should have told us that he was going win to multiple AAs. We didn't know. Stewart was pick 40. We now have you guarantee that he has the heart and talent of Stewart or possibly, JT's.

Kozzie-fever.

Welcome to Demonland: Latrelle Sumner-Pickett
Time will tell. Has it been suggested that he has exposed form re the highlighted? These would have translated to increased disposals. His main selling point seemed to be 38.10 in a lower, lower grade. And of course, being related to Kozzie. This is a sugar hit but if he isn't 90% Kozzie, it complicates selection managing addition relationships. I believe the pass mark for a top-fifteen non-KPP is 7 matches in their first-year. For alleged KPP top-fifteen pick, it is 5. We shall see. Digressing to Spargo, in our golden two years of 21/22, he did apply pressure. When you saw him competing at half-back, you knew we would win. He didn't recently but then he knew someone.

Welcome to Demonland: Xavier Taylor
No, but that is a rather low bar for a top pick in the AFL seniors. We need a KPP for the 200 cm forwards. Howes at 191 cm will be a good player and cover a 193 cm and we can still have 3 X 194 cm on the bench.

Welcome to Demonland: Latrelle Sumner-Pickett
A poor selection probably based on family connection. The AFL site says "The 19-year-old booted 32.18 at reserves level for the Bays." Note my highlighting. At senior level, he averaged 10 disposals. Hardly worthy of a high pick. JT, your mojo has stopped working.

Welcome to Demonland: Xavier Taylor
Too short. At 192 cm even shorter than the squad of 194 cm defenders fighting it out for 2nd and 3rd defender. Still too short for the flock of 193 cm forwards.
