Jack Billings is 29. he has played 175 games of AFL. He wont learn how to kick a goal at this stage of his career. I dont understand why he is expected to alter his proven B game now. Its a bit like bullying to play him forward of centre.

Did anyone tell Windsor that playing in defense means punching from behind if you cant get to the front. Bowey and Billings ARE not worthy of getting another game in the ones. For pity sake - Play on! take your 1st option. Bowey looked terrified of making a mistake. He used to be a delight to watch hit a target. Billings took a mark 30 m out and turned around without looking for another option. I went uh-oh. Of course he missed again. I cant remember when he kicked an important goal for us. We could have used it. Saints fans are laughing. He is 29! Think he will suddenly change? We kicked 24 points! Disco's shots scrapped inside the post from 20 Meters out. He was in front but went checkside! This thread is full of the "positives". Who signs off on this cr@p? Are the coaches coaching one percenters? I need another training report to cheer me up.

Billings is 29 years old.

Bowey and Billings have had their chance. Too many turnovers and not enough playing on. If you are going to hold up play when taking a mark, instead of finding an option, you cant then miss a target/goal. Too hesitant.

How's our pack marks going?

Bowey is the new Billings

I really love the passion Tmac engenders! He is one of my all time favourite demons of the modern age. I cant believe foresee he would be trying to run down Charlie Cameron (queue John Denver) but his abilityto plug(!) holes makes him a crucial part of 2025. Again, listening this morning was so much better than Raf Epstein! Top effort guys.

Had to give up last night listening to Hannan interview. I shouldve tried for longer. Just listened to full podcast. Excellent work! Thanks.

Hawks $3.60 to miss the top 8. Dees $7.50 to Make the top 4. I wish i could be objective... Ill stick with Demons to make top 8. Its Come down a little, still $2.80, so much better value than Dogs $2.20 and Crows $2.50.

I like Nutbush for turner.

Best wishes to you mate

Before last night's game Burgoyne was asked who might be BOG for all-stars. He said kossie or Rankine.

This is exactly like the bs that saty ran with at the 2020 pre-season. There has to be balance.

Really happy to see Hinkley go. he was behind Poor Adelaide constantly attacking gawn for years. Glad he finishes so unsuccessfully.

Thanks Macca - really enjoyed Monsieur Spade.

You have been asked by another poster where this is quoted from. I do appreciatre your work RIF but can you please elaborate?

Curnow Walsh and Newman are either still injured or have had very little pre-season due to recovery. I'd say Carlton are off to a slow start this year. We have, fingers crossed about Max and Trac, our best 28 ready to go. We should be 1st tier, I hope.

I set significant faith in excellent preseasons, recoveries from injury and fixtures. I think we are overs for the 8 @$3. Much water to pass under the bridge I admit.

When my son was 4 he said he wanted to barrack for that team that is so unlucky. He said he wated to follow Poor Adelaide because he was sorry for them. Happily the sudden halt of pancakes for breakfast soon put a stop to that [censored].

We've now gone from $2.60 to make the 8 to $3. I dont understand but Im planning on covering next years membership with a smallish outlay. I honestly believe many players are looking to have a very good year. ##Dont Jinx our near perfect Pre-season##

Id like Windsor to stay on the wing for the 1st 10 games or so. We have it seems many options leading into the season and Id like him to nail wing before having to step up. Like McVee, just do that voodoo that you do, well. Being good at it shouldnt mean you necessarily get moved.

I really look forward to your rolling squads Werridee. An emoji just isnt enough sometimes. Thanks. But Id swap Tholstrup with Langford and Turner with McAdam.

I had hopes Bowie might be tried out, but going by training reports, doesnt seem to have been in the forward line at all.

I missed this. What is the issue with Disco please?
