Laurie Extends for 2 More Years
Pretty sure that was caused by the forward (JVR??) deciding to double back towards the pocket, just as Laurie committed to the kick. Forwards would usually lead at the ball carrier As someone else said, difficult to know what your forwards are going to do if you only get half a game at a time.

Jack Viney Extends Contract Until 2028
Glad to hear that heโs staying. North will have to content themselves with wine or Wines?

Premiership Hero Ben Brown Retires
Was an even better player than his stats attest, and his stats are pretty damn good. And as everyone else is saying, gave the club so much more in other areas as well. Well done, Ben!

Me neither. I usually spell it with a โtโ. โPffftโ Now โconfelicityโ is definitely a word thatโs not in my vocabulary. But maybe it should be. Whoโs next?

Surely we have more than one moonboot?? Although it could explain why Maxy had to get out of the moonboot so early. ๐ค And thanks, I think I now know why so many people are commenting about herbs. I think.

Max Gawn Re-Signs Until 2027
As Iโve said before, Max has earnt the right to decide. Canโt see anyone wanting to retire him anytime soon. And besides, another couple of extensions and George will be able to take over. Problem solved.

Dan Houston
I know what you mean but the boundaries have shifted. Itโs the same as saying about a sling, tackle, โI didnโt tackle him high. He hit his head on the ground.โ These days that sort of contact causing a concussion just cannot be classified as unforeseen.

POSTGAME: Rd 23 vs Gold Coast
One of my favourite pieces of play yesterday was Pettyโs mark for the first goal of Q2. Petty out bodied Collins, while Disco had body on Ballard. Bit of a shame Clohesy was allowed to come in but Billings was correctly on the defensive side. Lucky he wasnโt any bigger. Too many times over the past 3 years marking forwards have been left to compete with 3 defenders or more. Forwards need to be as much or more accountable than defenders. Looking forward to seeing the results of another preseason.

Better Keane than Butts. Butts is ok but the Irishman could be anything if he learns to control his aggression.

NON-MFC: Round 23
Thinking close to double. Sitting duck with Houston not protecting himself, just causing maximum damage. More like Webster?

Trade Targets
Nibbler played well today. Iโm betting heโll play well next week as well. We may be able to trade him for Soligo and one other? Pedlar? Dowling? ROB?

Maybe we could make a play for Lachie Neale? He should know by now success is not coming to that club.
