No. 31

Are there footy themed Lego sets to purchase? My young son loves Lego at the moment.

I think the aim should be to finish 1 or 2 spots higher than this season whilst bedding down a new game style and blooding some youngsters. That would would be a good season in 2026. No expectation to make the finals.

The colours are the traditional Tasmanian sporting colours so its really the only option. I thought I read somehere the map with the 'T' guernsey will only be used as a promotional guernsey in the formation years prior to actually starting to play and might be adopted for say a heritage round. Hopefully no tacky oversized logo is adopted and let us be honest, only one team can don a monogram with class and distinction 😁

Went to catch the Hard-Ons at the Bendi tonight, was a great gig, enjoyed it 🤘😁

I bumped mowing my front lawn to catch some of this ... great start by the Lady Dees with the first two goals 👍

I find this school letter grading all a bit infantile TBH. Ultimately the real assessments of the 2025 draft will come in few years time. I thought the Dees did quite well and plugged some obvious holes with good young prospects. Looking forward to see how these lads grow and mature over the next few seasons.

Hey, I thought Jack Ison was the new Bont ... so much so that the Doggies didn't bid 😁

Gives off Crippa vibes ... could be a good pickup on the cheap 👍

Max is on 247 and I am on 0 ... but I am pretty sure I have been drunk at more games than Max! 😁

That is a respectable list 👍 I opted to go to my local government school instead. Max Gawn and I share the same alma mater 😁

Sounds like me, my Ma offered to send me to Caulfield Grammar and I declined 😁 Like the cut of Xavier's jib ... looks like a likely lad 👍

Hands off, he already picked his locker at Parc de Princes ✋️😁

A good pickup I say. Its clear he has loads of natural ability, flair and he has his older cousin to help him adjust to the rigours of AFL training and professionalism.

I quite like what has been done in a short time with GW in the CEO seat already but he has been working at 400 Royal Parade, Carlton North for 10 months already so probably has a handle on the most pressing issues. I am anticipating both the Blues and Dees to be contenders again in a few years, hopefully see some great tussles at the MCG in the near future ... Melbourne v Carlton is actually the oldest club rivalry in footy stemming from the 1870s when the new sport transitioned from a winter novelty for cricket players to becoming something that is woven into the social fabric of this city. Clubs like Collingwood and Hawthorn did not even exist in this era and came decades later!

Lukewarm on him, not that he was poor but I get the feeling he didn't make some harder calls as he was in pre-retirement mode. But then again, he did bring in Graham Wright on his way out and turning around the HMAS Carlton FC is a long project 😁
