Hawny for Gawny

Yes, I agree but on their current trajectory they look like they could pull a north or even what we did, no club should sit at the bottom for 6-8 years, this year has been great purely off the fact that any team can beat any team (except North and WCE) its better for the league as a whole if you don't have these teams rotting at the bottom, especially one as big as Meth Toast.

Winning the Vic Metro BnF would probably get him a chance on someones list but your right we may have taken the punt on 1/20 guys if he wasn't F/S

I don't think you can worry about that, Tassie is still years away, take the best and if they do get scalped then we get some big compensation and hopefully some good years out of them for another granny.

Hawny for Gawny's rebuttal: Yeo - would have to take a paycut Liam Ryan - too expensive (Max would have PTSD too much) Jeremy McGovern - No Todd - Grundy isn't working? lets get an older slower version! Mabior - Chose to go home and is probably on some decent cash but I don't hate it.

I think it was on the couch and Buckley Mentioned this and there was something like 3 serious injuries due to this new technique which keep in mind was banned in rugby if I recall due to the ankle/foot injuries it was causing so often.

I by no means think he is the perfect fit but he has proven he can be a decent player, I also think the being an Unrestricted FA is the biggest thing, considering we may end up using a lot of draft capital to make a play in this draft it doesn't leave a lot to play with,

Won't send TMAC down back, he plays up front for a couple of weeks and sees if he can get into the 1s, he hasn't been injury free since 2021.

I imagine he doesn't want to leave Victoria and the thought of going to a contending team has to be appealing unless a team offers him overs on the contract.

That is true but he has done it for the Blues ok in the past, I think you just get a 2nd rate ruck that knows he will sit in the VFL but gives a chance to be competitive if brought in.

At this point we don't know whether the Grundy experiment works or continues into the further seasons. Someone who fits what we need in a FWD/Ruck is Jack Silvagni who is reported as "unlikely" to remain at the Blues. He is also an Unrestricted FA and if we are to move grundy on I think he fits our needs as a 30% game time ruck who has shown he can kick a goal. What are the thoughts? Would he be too expensive?

JJ was decent today and you have to give him credit, I think many people just think like I do where I don't think he is best 22 at the end of the day and people project that onto him no matter what happens, similar to the hate Hunter often gets.

Most of the time the time frame includes getting them match fit or as close as you can, I heard somewhere Daicos is looking at 4 weeks on the couch then can start training again

He isn't a key ball winner, I actually think that's where he is the worst, he's an elite user and they run the ball through him.

Id say 1 to go, Id rather JJ out for someone later but Sparrow stays, he's been quality this year,

Max said it best in the post game interview, playing footy down there is true footy. Crowd doesn't really have an impact and its always a contested competitive game.

Good thing Harmes is getting replaced by a certain someone for this next game

Melksham - Held all game or Robbed of frees

Viney Trac Gus Hunter Gawn ANB

I wouldn't doubt it he looks a tad too happy to be saying stuff like that, hopefully 1-2 weeks

IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE IN: The Clayton Michael Oliver, Grundy OUT: Petty :(, Harmes (Thanks for the service to this club and you've lived our dream of playing for your childhood club but I think its time to go)

Win is a win, we don't need to gain massive percentage IMO, I think it comes down to either us or Brisbane winning out for 2nd, Brisbane have a harder run on paper but who knows.

At some point in the 3rd I think it looked zoomed in on the bench and looked as though petty said "its F**cked" in response to someone asking how it was... :(

Petty, Melk and JvR to combine for at least 10 and I will be very happy, add a Max outside 50 bomb and I shall be ecstatic .

If he was against the Toiges then even more reason to let him go

They will always be hard to get but if I'm a top quality KPD Melbourne looks way more appealing
