Of course they can, if May is sincere in his apology to Joel and Joel accepts it and moves on. May is clearly a bad drunk and other than a couple of drinking episodes with us, has been a model citizen. Why wouldn’t Joel accept that it was the grog talking, if May is genuinely contrite and remorseful. The boys and the team will move on. Win or lose on QB, the bye will allow the club to reset, regroup and reconfirm the way they want to play and behave.

Thinking Turner will be named on the extended bench.

How about instead we help him stay off the drink and keep our best key back and one of the most important players in the club.

Not only a team mate, but one getting over concussion, from a previous hit to the head. Actually assaulted someone for a verbal barb. Pretty great all round. I think Jake might have played his last AFL game for us, considering his last two games and on top of this incident.

We should be sending text messages to get the last 3000 members signed to reach 65000. We are good at text messages.

So am I.

Meaningless to me. Would rather read a book.

He is the back up ruckman if both Max and LJ are out.

You mean that guy who was in career best form last year until doing a knee and who has dominated at VFL this year and played one poor game last week.

It certainly has gone quiet on the footy news front.

Agree with all of that, but I asked the question, are we a one man team? It will be harder, but we can win without May and if we can’t win games without him, we have serious problems.

Win the game boys and let’s move on.

Bit defeatist. Are we now a one man team?

.

Are there any texts between AFL Commissioners, admitting the game is being ruined by the Administration they have employed? It could be suggested by many observers and participants that this is an “immature and appalling way” to run one of the major sports in the country.

If we can’t get McStay, then Tex for 2 years could be huge. A long and accurate kick, would put him in rare air at Melbourne. He is a free agent and given a chance at a flag, would hopefully modify his salary demands. If we got him, a couple of other players could be moved on and he would be great for JVR to help develop his game. Would take the opposition best back man, which would help whoever is the other key forward. Tex is just better than anyone we have atm and he would plug a gap for a couple of years.

Are you saying that as a criticism or a compliment?

We got a good run in PF and GF.

Could we try Tomlinson forward? Can’t be worse than current occupants lately.

Jordon was great and in our best 3.

If you could get McStay, you could release M. Brown and try and trade Weid, who has just about eroded any optimism I have retained for him. Weid must grab his next chance, which will possibly be his last.

Yes forgot that one. Also forgot to add forwards behind their opponents all the time.

Shocking disposal. Poor decision making. Lack of hard effective tackling pressure allowing easy options. 5 goals from frees, to not one free in our forward 50. Key forwards useless again. Dropping marks and fumbling.

👍

Now I feel better.
