GS_1905

Adelaide just doesn’t have the capital and are apparently after Ahh Chee m. They have said they are not willing to o repay either. I’d be on the phone to GCS and be asking for Pick 6 and Flanders for Trac and 23. Otherwise no deal and he stays put. We hold all the cards so I hope Lamb has his eyelids glued open.

Well it better be. They pulled a real number on us with McAdam and the.n ANB. Sure some of this is on us given the circumstances and all. But they need to offer up a hell of a good deal. This year and next first (given where they are likely to finish ) is just to get the conversation started .

And with Greg Swanny at the helm, you can be sure that what ever he does, the Lions will not be disadvantaged significantly. But the whole NGA rule change that screwed the Dees with MacAndrew was because the Doggies got JUH and yet we sit here watching the Lions do a mini rebuild on the fly while playing prelims. I mean, come on they must be laughing in the boardroom with how the managed to get away with this.

He doesn’t have it in him anymore I reckon. Rarely plays with that type of intensity.

I’m happy Pies lost, but Lions are set to play their 3rd grand final in as many years. This after a three peat at the turn of the 21st century. that is a probleM In my book. Especially when you have North struggling to finish higher than bottom 4. For the last decade.

Good bye Collingwood forever. That’s not how to the play game.

This will be his output at the Dees if he signs with us 100%

Oh the irony for him. Maybe its all an elaborate plan to get the mug Maynard to Entrecote.

i miss the time when the GF for the VFL & Coates league was on GF monring at the G. Why did they stop doing that?

There are a whole raft of measures that can be employed. The problem is that the AFL has constantly been virtue signalling regarding equalisation but in reality is lured away by the commercial aspect.

Geez just coz Stewart is going to miss next weeks GF all of a sudden every commentator is now talking about g about having the rules changed….

If I’m Sam Mitchell I go after Trac more than I do Merrett. They really lack that brute mid/fwd.

Why does Gazza keep saying it’s Bailey Smiths first prelim. He was present when we smoked the Doggies in 21.

This hasn’t been the best prelim I don’t think. Hawks just not ready yet. Need a few more years I think. Slick in H&A but they don’t have the arsenal to counter finals pressure and contest orientated game style.

Hats off to Danger. One foot in the grave and he’s playing like a spring chicken

Hawks have run their course. Reckon the 3 games in 13 days is catching up

How the ball is going straight is beyond me, I’m trying to figure which little piggy built my house because it may not be standing tomorrow morning with this wind.

Get f…..

Gonna be a wet second half. Reckon that’ll suit Hawks more.

I don’t diasagree, but I’m curious to see how HQ / MRO will handle this especially if Pies get through.

Stewart is done. Concussion. Wonder if Choo gets suspended…..

This is going to be a big loss to the Cats at this rate. I wonder if there is a virus sweeping through the club

We should also remember and infact prioritise the team over any one player. Granted Trac has had profound impact on our success. But he has also been party to some of the most brutal fracturing behaviour that our club has seen in the last decade and is arguably still at it. I outright don't like him and what he has done to the team of late. Especially his tantrums and dummy spits during various games throughout the season. He is not naturally a team first player and for the brief few years he was, we won a premiership and made a few finals. Whilst his trade talk has been subdued for now, i wouldnt be surprised if he did go full nuclear. Not averse to keeping him, but i just want the all shirade to be over so that our team can focus on being competitive again. That to me is in Trac's court. He needs to come out - as has Clarry - to shut down all the trade nonsense. If he doesnt in the lead up to Trade week, then he can pack his bags.

Please feel free to enlighten me doc.

Inside word was that he was brittle as glass and was very injury prone. Poor lad does have talent though.
