Good one! Got me

My understanding from informed Saints fans is that they want Ben King so that they can play Max as a key backman. They believe thats where he would be best suited and would star there. Max to play FF. If we still had Yze coaching us, we would have a quirky bonus to offer, as the King twins are the only other players to come from Albania, other than Adem.

who is 57? commentators have no idea. Looks like Bowey

Seston. I like him a lot

With the 4th umpire inside 50 and side on to forward contests, it really exposes the hits on Gawn and BigBen. I think there is not going to be bias shown towards free kick evening up either anymore.

We need Fritsch to cover Kozzie in the forward line. We need Viney to cover Kozzie in the middle.

I want Geelong to win. Their collective injuries should tell later in the year. Collingwood even without Howe look good, and will be harder to stop.

Would Have But I feel your pain.

Radio reports Goody has said no Fritsch, Viney or Salem this week

So happy to see a post called GameDay. 🤠

I believe we have had a golden Pre-season but there are 4 weeks to go. I predict there may be small niggles over the next short period across 3 or 4 and any one puts him in the frame. That will mean Chandler gets another go. Im buying.

If LRFE says it's on Foxtel, take it for granted.

Zed's dead, baby.

Scratch most Hawthorn Baby boomers and you will find an ex-saint or ex-demon. They all got on in the 1970's.

Bowey for Salem for sure. Jordan for Petracca, was the leg broken before both those finals? Yes for Sydney at least. Gawn for Majak Daw, who should have been encouraged to hang in there as he was monstering VFL. Watching the finals again, these small changes may have made a big difference, but not enough for a flag. Was Goody wrong in not playing our Flag winning VFL players? No doubt in my mind. In fact my personal jury is out on my support for him this year. Is it because I have memories of not seeing my name for the 1sts on the board late on a Thursday, when some named haven't attended training? Yes. Still, I see Goody differently now.

Do we have any feral supporters? Would we recognise them?

This is historically true.

2 points. Ive marked your words in the past, not hitching my wagon to your star any more. "If he's healthy" is the nub of the issue, some believe his best is 2 years back.

Vafa ground Elsternwick park is under utilised. Umpires train there during the season and they host a game of the week for vafa. I have been saying for years we should look at it. Big ground. Near tram train and bus and plenty of parking. Near end of chapel street as well. The old Elsternwick bowls club next door ripe for a demons happy hour after a 4pm training. We will always have Memories of junction oval training in 1989 I guess

Im hearing Ooze and Choco assisting.

Id give 6 to Harry petty. but yes maybe..

No 2? 6? 12? 26? 19?

I need to ask my annual question. Define quick and fast ball movement please.

I got really excited when i saw Demonlandy had posted something in this thread. I need to settle into another marathon day.
