  1. Well that is clearly attainable with little disruption to the overall setting. I agree with Its Time, who said that Goschs now seems the likely place for our new training centre, given the Pert comments. As far as losing about $2m for NT and QB games, a premiership would wipe that out in a flash, with memorabilia sales, increased membership and sponsorship. They would make millions off the back of a flag. Now all we need to do is win the Premiership.
  2. Also one of my targets, Jordan Clark of the Cats, looks headed home to the Dockers. Pity! I think he would have made a good winger for us.
  3. The [censored] who stuffed the May hands on the mark, paid htb against Sparrow who had kicked it away and a deliberate when it was hand balled to a Demon as well as the no htb on Blicavs which cost the lions the game. He is hopeless. Will probably get the GF.
  4. Correct, we were terrible.
  5. Where is the Weid that starred against the Cats in the first final in 2018. He has the ability, what has gone wrong. Unlike most of you, I refuse to write him off, now.
  6. My question is why has Weid gone so far backwards. Is it lost confidence, poor delivery, lack of leading or all three? Even when he gets his hands on the ball he drops it. He has played himself out of the side atm.
  7. They wouldn’t go near him off today’s game.
  8. And there it is. 65% efficiency is pathetic as is our lack of pressure. Fix that or we lose, end of story.
  9. Not at all. Probably the view of fans of all the other clubs in the AFL.
  10. Absolutely.
  11. Isn’t Nicholls retired? Haven’t seen him all year.
  12. I agree with that. The club is in turmoil and landing a big fish Coach, who declared he wanted stability, could stop the Board challenges and pacify the members. I posted that Clarkson has to be the primary target and he said what you would expect him to say. However, Mitchell is there wanting the senior job, with the Hawks desperate to keep him and Clarkson has one year left and a President who would happily let him go and then install Mitchell in the job. Why would Buckley go mid year, unless they were worried they would miss their target, if they waited? That to me excludes Yze and any other untried Coach. Remember the other team who they hate across town, who may also be looking for a senior coach. If the word was out that the Blues were sounding Clarkson out, the Pies would be desperate to beat them to the punch. A similar scenario would exist if Clarkson was unavailable and then Lyon becomes the hot property. I think if the Pies were looking at an untried coach, Buckley would have stayed until the end of the season, as there would be no urgency. We will know soon enough.
  13. They did get a big forward in Spalding several years ago and he played well for them.
  14. Sounds like a late father/son pick if we want him. ( Meaning he won’t cost us a lot in terms of draft pick. )
  15. Don’t know much about him but worth a look. Is he not getting a run in Swans side? How has he played when he got in? One spot we can use is wing.
  16. Couldn’t have said it better myself.
  17. I had completely forgotten about VDB.
  18. Admire your confidence.
  19. I know that, I was only discussing Monday’s game.
  20. They will be very emotional and probably play out of their skins early. If we stay with them, then hopefully our fitness and game style will overpower them later in the game.
  21. Not this week.
  22. According to Mrs. Redleg, our most improved player. PS. Sorry for sounding like Hardwick.
  23. Then the coaches should instruct him to do that, if that is what they wanted. I think he basically did as instructed and assisted in 3 goals and could have kicked 2 more himself.
