4 games, 10 marks.. 4 games, 3 goals, ave 3 tackles a game and ave 3 hit outs.. I always feel players need more than 1 game in a row to get the pace of senior footy but Peds is not getting it done at senior level.

I’ve really wanted Peds to make it at senior level... he won’t. He may stay on the list another year as a mature back up but he will only ever play if injuries run deep. Unfortunately He has shown nothing at senior level at all this year, he’s the fittest he has ever been and not been able to make an impact.

Fixed

Weid at the very least is equal to Peds if not ahead of him at senior level. Peds seems to do well in the 2s, Weids does ok with a few outstanding returns. Peds is not much chop at senior level, and probably on par with Weid at senior level. The difference with Weid at senior level is he has time on his hands, he is young and does some nice little things but these need to grow.

Yea seems odd, he has been given a few goes at it for a stretch of games, had a couple of injuries that have dropped him out of the side too. He has shown little glimpses that I think make he look like an exciting prospect. He needs to show more of it from here on out, maybe focus on that rather than looking for a trade kid, not like there are huge road blocks and numbers of big fwds in front of him..

Maybe if he was banging down the door, shees

I'd expect they will pick him above Peds for the last 2 games and finals if we make it (ggaaahhh I hope we do). Get some more games into him, high stakes games. He has shown a little bit for mine, but he really needs to start coming on if given the chance now and coming into next season. Peds has shown he just doesn't cut it at senior level, Weids its time to shine sailor.

The FB comments on the MFC post are amusing.

Where is the cool, calm head and wisdom of Campbell Brown when you need it?!

I’m not reading too much into and I can see why he is meeting Gus even without moving to the Dees. Gaff has reached out to the Brayshaw family to apologise, Gus is part of the family and in the footy “community”, it makes sense to me. (If it is happening). I think Gaff would be looking to speak to everyone in the close family circle especially Mum.

Moon he is beyond reaching, I think it’s time to let this one go... let him sink to the depths he seems to enjoy it down there.

And the media, it’s just out of control, this moral outrage in the “current climate”.

Flogging a dead horse emoji

Hmmm maybe, I mean if Brayshaw wasn’t impeding Gaff he wouldn’t have brain farted the swinging fist. In saying that I think these incidents will always happen, humans have brain farts, Gaff has zero history of anything even close to this, before Sunday.

Hmm I think Gaff should put his hand up for it, he put his hand (clenched) up on Sunday to Brayshaw. He should look at paying up for it?

I love those black and white movies where they go from a long shot panning into a close up across a room, you can hear the old record player playing a tune and then hitting a scratch and skipping back and playing again.... skipping and again... and again.... and again... and again.... and again.... and again......... zzzzzzz

Nisbett for sure but give me a spell you’re looking to flay Gaff for the entire Eagles “history”? Maybe have a spell from the thread for a bit, I suspect you’ll feel better for it. And just to be really clear, Gaff has done some brutal damage to an unsuspecting opponents faces and will go through the tribunal process and he should be suspended for a decent period of time. This over the top but it’s the current climate of outrage.

Im not sure what is a charade about it? This is total media hysteria, they want a perp walk through the airport, good on the Eagles for looking after Gaff.

Agree with you Ouch... hysteria... the current climate, the media looking for the next outrage. I am the worst at throwing a punch and hate it but I clearly know that wasn’t a punch, you watch NJones pregame on the pads with the gloves, he throws a punch. The way i saw it, Gaff threw a ridiculous swinging arm to get some space, get some frustration out etc, he [censored] d up and will pay the price. He was/is known to the Brayshaw family they get to judge Gaff as a person the tribunal gets to judge to action. Seeing Robbo and Whately on 360 just made me roll my eyes, i don’t recall them being so outspoken about Essendrug (I may be wrong but don’t recall them so horrified). I hope the Eagles, the AFL and the Dees are supporting all people involved.

You honestly think the AFL would manipulate the outcome of the sacredness of the tribunal to suit some random desire for no negative press leading up the the grand final? Yeap ok I can see that happening.

Maybe he owns a sunscreen manufacturer?

Chuck it on Stuies FB page he’ll love it...

Good lord that is a hard read. Layer of layer upon layer of rules added to suit each new direct from the AFL. Insert Tony Abbot onion eating gif.

The big clubs reaping the $$ from pokies... glad we are getting out. https://www.theage.com.au/business/companies/afl-clubs-reaped-100-million-pokies-windfall-last-year-20180727-p4zu08.html

If you can find one that states the recent game caused the 3 most recent injuries I’ll eat my hat. How many injuries did Freo pick up this week?
