Will be tougher for the tigers given they gave up 3 first rounders and a second for Taranto and Hopper. Giving away valuable future picks and then doing a runner Mid season would annoy me as a tiger fan. Taranto has been good but where do the tigers finish on the ladder this year without him? Maybe one or two rungs lower. But with great hands in a really good draft

2 weeks in a row sides get done by the Goal Umps
Today was one of the worst umpired games (boundary included( I've been to. 4 field umps is making things worse. Another brilliant Chris Scott idea I believe.

NON-MFC: Rd 23 2023
Well said. I'm over worrying about the permutations of games not involving my club. Anyone anywhere is the attitude I've got and know the club feel the same as we should. I don't fear any team at any venue

Nic Naitanui Retires
He had some great moments and games but for mine one of the most overrated footballers in the past 20 years. Was great at hit outs and follow up clearances in his prime but mostly awful around the ground and a terrible mark for his size. The way the commentators used to go on about him probably skews my judgement, but it was unbearable at times.

Umpiring discrepancies
I'm sure all the fact finding junkets to study how they do things in the NFL, EPL etc are well on track.

Umpiring discrepancies
If Hawkeye at the tennis can pinpoint a tennis ball travelling 200km with in millimetres, surley the tech is available. What possible excuse is there not to have it at all the major AFL venues? Can't be $$$ surley
