If Jacko goes, Rendell on SEN suggesting we end up with Grundy and a high pick. Pies to pay say $200K of his $900k for next 5 years. Lobb to Dogs for pick. Freo gives picks to Pies, who save $700k a year, plus probably De Goeys' salary, which they use to chase Giants players. Grundy then does most of ruckwork for us and Max plays more forward, which prolongs his career and gives us another marking target forward. We use the high pick to draft another key forward. We can then rookie another ruck. Maybe we trade Weid to Pies as part of the deal to improve our draft position. Lots of possibilities.

I never said anything about getting De Goey, I was just saying that with their rotten culture they have won 8 in a row and so maybe it's not culture that wins games. You might not give a rats about a team winning 8 in a row, but I bet their supporters do. PS: I am certainly not defending De Goey and I wouldn't want him with us.

So try Tomlinson forward and tell him the role we want him to play. Maybe it is just dragging another key defender away from Brown and Fritta. That could be worth a couple of goals on its own. Maybe if they zone off him, he becomes the free tall to kick it to. He is fit enough to move up the ground and back, like Tom does as as well. Maybe our mids when they look up, will see three talls in different spots they can aim at, instead of the predictable big bomb to BBB with 3 on him.

What jumper will Jacko wear?

8 wins in a row. Numerous players seem to want to go there. Obviously culture isn't winning their games, or losing them. PS: I am not saying we don't want our club to have a good culture, obviously we do.

Wow thanks a lot Footy Classified. First they say Yze should be Coach somewhere and take Choco with him, ( not that I would begrudge Yze getting a senior role). Then Hutchy says WC should take Jacko through the PSD and pay nothing for him. You know what Hutchy, GAGF.

Would be great if we beat Dogs and Freo lose to Tigers, putting us 2 games and % ahead of Dockers. Martin and Lynch out for Tigers just to make that more unlikely.

I think Melksham and Bedford go out and Lever might be a wait and see on his shoulder.

Yes he will and no he didn’t. The 2 dropped handballs and poor kick to Fritta, out of his 4 possies to that point in the 3rd quarter, are the reason he can’t stay in.

I wonder if sometimes I am watching a different game. I agree Tomlinson was really good today and yet some want him out. Played on a taller opponent in good form and basically dominated him. Aside from one goal set up for him, I thought Melksham was horrible and unfortunately Bedford was unsighted.

Turned it over and stopped momentum about 6 times.

There is a bloke missing for us.

Try Toby in the middle, as he hasn’t done a thing and should be fit and fast, if they can give him the ball at stoppage.

Sub is a small when we went small anyway. Weid obviously is not wanted by us.

Yep PPMFCSS, Post Premiership MFCSS.

It is the single best advantage to a team in the AFL. Interstate teams have to travel constantly, but the Cats have this home ground advantage and travel less than most Vic clubs. It is virtually a given 7-8 win walk up start every year. 4-5 more wins at G or Marvel and it is finals every year.

Our big problem is we probably have the worst key forward options in the AFL atm. I just don't see how we fix that, unless JVR comes in and plays well, or we change our game plan, to utilize a small forward line. That would mean kicking to space and along the ground entering the forward 50 and not just bombing it long to 1 on 3.

It’s obvious, Silvagni touched his arm, as he dived after kicking the ball.

They are asking for a priority pick for Liam Jones retiring, when refusing to vaccinate. The arrogance.

Did we play a WA side in any of them?

Blues, Swans and us. Must avoid Freo in Perth as will be hardest to win. We play them there soon and it could decide our fate.

I am an old fart, 70 and agree the generations do see things differently.

Spoken to Gus or Andrew lately?

I can’t recall winning games a game without Clarry for about 6 years.😉

Would you see it as a smart move for a finals club to say at this point of the season, one of their young stars is leaving. I don’t.
