Crows for mine so ANB has 2 flags. He played a great GF for us. Under huge pressure lot of the time. Or Freo because Gus' brother plays there. Underachievers Cats will go out again. Sure they make top 4 most years but have the stadium advantage in size and less than transparent issues. They should make top 4. record of 1 flag since 2012 with taxpayer park support in place is poor IMO. Dees on the right path to improve as a club currently IMO

Good point and adds support imo that Dee's Board timed the run well to change coaches this year rather than mix it with blues and possibly lions next year. I'm coming around to the views on here that Buckley has a lot of traits our list needs so get him now ahead of a race next year.

Spot on. Vic media love him such as whately. Just ask Adelaide watchers I know say a self promoter and under achiever at the sharp end despite their talent.

I think you are wrong. Hinkley Longmire Simpson and daly all have valid but varying reasons to avoid a senior role right now. Hinkley too soon after Port and will look for a cushy job for a while Same with Longmire - key exec role at swans. he's a Sydney resident long term IMO Simpson burnt at Eagles and will never coach again anyway Day has a Lions agenda - very professional attitude Enright ensconced at Saints on the rise under Ross will habe a better CV for going back to cats Bruce- no idea.

Luke Hodge this morning has Max as the ruck and as the Deputy Vice Captain. Tha Age said gawn missing out would be like Jeremy Cameron being ommitted - No.8 coming up. Jackson in on the bench far more worthy than Grundy. Grundy starred against rubbish oppo.

If someone had abused Rankine on basis of his race he'd scream about it. Same issue just different angle. Bad luck. Clumsy by afl as expected allowing crows to mount a case.

What's the veracity of this stat. Averaging 10 per game? Not saying your wrong. Just would like to know how an unbelievable stat like this was calculated. If true. Hand Max his 8th AA now.

This in a nutshell. Read Caro at your peril. Her article notes no calls returned to her as well. She will hate that.

Excellent externals especially parnissi. Smith also as you would expect so will have fingerprints on process and outcome as he should as incoming chair. Announcement from Green is timely as he noted last week. Watson is left field but he comes across as articulate and will have solid background on footy department ops. Richo hasn't been sacked so currently needs to be on but hardly will impact selection being possibly on borrowed time. Fills me with confidence. Let's not forget all the Buckley talk has been by Nathan and assorted media tarts.

My sum total of media watching this year (and listening) was the Front Bar recently with big Max. Fabulous viewing. Mick Molloy and Sam sparked beautifully off Max. No Kayo, binge, anything on 7 or 9. Except the odd evening news snippet. Best thing I ever did, The commentariat are garbage these days and relay on clickbait statements to garner relevancy. My recommendation to all on here bitching abotu the 4th estate. Just swithc them off and talk amongst ourselves on here. There always some good commentary, opinions and predictions whcih I enjoy greatly. Daisy Thomas in the media? Spare me. Even Whately toes the party line in the guise of being thoughtful

Regarding systems this game is like watching a men vs boys match. Dogs highly drilled and systemic. We have nothing. Kudos to Board for pulling the trigger. Our youngsters leading the way. Stars mostly seemed checked out. Excl Max and clarry.

It's not about re energise of the Pies. McCrae can actually coach game plan and structures.

Get real. You tell us you won't elaborate. Then you elaborate. Mischievous post. And if true appalling lack of accountability not to mention lack of professionalism by players who contributed to Goodwins demise.

My pies tragic friends say Buckley wasted a decade for them. As McCrae has proven. Longmire won't leave Sydney and his embedded role at the swans. Thus I have no idea on the rest. Just who I don't want. But keep posting everyone it's great reading. But 3 years of a dysfunctional forward system was enough for me to know simon was timed out ( whom I love and will be grateful to) and Board made correct call now.

Agree yet we keep having players re-sign. Eg kozzie etc. I'm hopeful still provided coaching stcks are cleaned out and someone who can address forward issues appointed. 1 goal 12 after half time in the Alice settled it for me. Also 1 goal 6 yesterday in first 1/4. Times up Simon. Sadly
