Liam Jurrah - father/son?
Would the circumstances that affected Jurrah's career be the same obstacle for his children? BTW while we haven't mentioned it if he has a daughter similar to him she'd be exciting to watch in the AFLW.

Farewell Clayton Oliver
I love Gawn plus his anecdotes. But for all sorts of reasons, like Goody's pressers, I think he's very safe and diplomatic with answers about players, teams and the AFL admin and the overall sport. It's a pity but comments that May and Langdon said about Collingwood ( as well as Ginnivan about Port Adelaide) backfired. It is all kinds boring but it's the same as in our lives that if unexpectedly suddenly someone we treated badly is now our customer or superior or whatever we would regret our past misdemeanors. I don't know how good Gawn and Trac's relationship is now. But best if Trac comes to the premiership reunions, Trac isnt BOG whenever we play GC, and if Gawn still has a strong connection with our club after retiring Tracc has no problems having that too. While i kinda would love to know what Gawn really thinks about our recent seasons and the 'culprits' it's probably for the best he tells white lies or doesnt reveal much at all.

Calling all pre-season track watchers ...
Doesn't it depend on what's in those drinks?

Did they put that infamous soccer ball in front of a firing squad? Wilson! 😂

Farewell Christian Petracca
I'm still amazed how much we got for Tracc. There are arguments whether it's accurate to say we got the equivalent of pick #1. But I reckon if we insisted on upgrading we'd at least be guaranteed to swap 7 and 8 for 4. As teams get better with choosing the best picks what would you expect from a number 4? Tracc might play a 100 games for the Suns , as well mentor young players and somewhere along the way he does enough on the ground one year that he helps GC win extra H&A games of finals or even kicks two goals in a GF Suns win by one goal. But very easily he may only play 60 games while our 7&8 play 350 games from next year and combined are better than a slightly lesser post-Kings Birthday player (or that #4 outperforming Trac with 200 games and a Brownlow)

Dawn of a new Era - Paul Guerra article 18.10.2025
He has had hissy fits before. Oliver really could've not posted the pic of him with Casey, just ignored the journo at the escalator and either said nothing now or just say how grateful he was for his time with Melbourne. But he didn't. It's not a crime. But if we shock everyone and make next year's prelims it doesn't look good on him and Tracc.

Umm, big decisions like who are in the 45 players quota are rarely based on just one or two things.

So what do we do? So i should pay for books, papers, music, film etc the way i did in the 90s. That would have me paying way more and wondering why Im skint while everyone else goes the cheap route and the people creating the above stuff get an extra cup of coffee out of my generosity. Too bad if I was a travel agent or anyone else who now earns a lot less (or nothing) thanks to modern-day progress. There was something like the Law Of The Commons. If , say, a large community are overfishing their nearby lake and in time all the fish are gone everyone loses out but at the same time no one feels at fault because with thousands of fishermen every individual is less than 1% responsible. I dont know the answer vut this is where we're at.- Dawn of a new Era - Paul Guerra article 18.10.2025
Of course clubs want higher and better picks. But obviously it's never as easy as calling a team with #1, 12 and 18 in a good draft position and a team with 7, 8, 13 and 14 any lesser blessed. While a team may get a Chris Judd the first pick can problematic as both McCartin and UgleHagan have shown recently. It's nice for a club to have the option of a potential future legend of the game over two future multiple All-Australians. But however we probably did well with the Tracc trade (and if the "small change" isn't ridiculous ( in the 70s or whatever) then, well, we may as well as be arguing whether 0.9999999 is 1 in future similar trades for a gun)- Dawn of a new Era - Paul Guerra article 18.10.2025
Umm, so if West Coast(?) agree to swap #1 for picks 7 and 8 could we still laugh at PG's comment? I get it: if there's no takers, short of overspending , 7&8 wont become 1 (or vice versa) But the point still stands that getting 2 likely high-class youngsters at once can change everything - we got quite a bit for someone who no longer was part of the team, possibly was causing problems and may be a shadow of his former self (taking a big chunk out of the salary cap).- Bailey Humphrey

Yep, lots of spin. So much will always be hidden. The club don't want Tracc, Oliver or any past player to hate us. But it could be if we knew all the stats and stories from recent years we'd agree the club would have been crazy to persist with them.- Welcome to Demonland: Steven King
True. But even in the best team a forward cannot stop a miskick to a defender in space nor do anything with a shot at goal that's out of reach and off target. - Bailey Humphrey
