Bates Mate

Haha I thought of the same nickname can't wait to see Berserk Derk

Agree,owies would be handy in our forward line

Haha the captain of the biggest yappy teams who is one of the biggest himself didn't like it when he gets some of the treatment his way

I'm out of the loop on this comment

I always thought of him as a Saints version of Kent Kingsley, seems to always play well against us but generally a bit of a spud. His stats suggest him to be more consistent than I give him credit for. Would not be against picking him up. Will help keep fritta honest who got games this year he didn't deserve

Much prefer Luke Parker if we are going for an experienced mid week can fill a gap for a couple of seasons

Watching the GWS , Sydney and Hawthorn games and you think gees we are so far off the pace. Watching tonight I think we are still in the window of being a finals team for the next 2-4 years

Lions showing they are just making up numbers

Carlton The worst half in living memory, can't say I'm unhappy

If you'd had to make a choice between the two this time last year , the choice was obvious.

Is it streaming at all?

I agree, I also think the play through pain/ injury philosophy derailed our 2022 campaign

Was so great not knowing the real ladder positions until what was it round 10!!! Just an awful idiotic idea that I can't comprehend how anyone even thought of it, let alone pitched it to a room full of supposed smart people who signed it off

seems like they still do

Don't think any of these players are on the trade table. Wright was on the outer towards the end of last year but 50+ goals and a bnf in 2022 don't think the bombers would just let him go for nothing .

They needed to add to the click counter last week and they added this to the Melbourne pile on to get the job done in a non finals week.

Id just like club to communicate what the actual problems are and what we are going to do to fix them . Roffey, gawn ,trac some of the wider football media and some with close links to club have all publicly said there are problems but no one has said specifically what they are. Yes on field performance is obvious but I think there is more to it. We've all heard rumours but if like the club to communicate what they think these issues are

Can we delete this thread give full Amnesty to every poster and pretend it never happened

they never rarely genuine wingers , just another spot for a midfielder. See Ed Langdon 2021

Waterman over Curnow is ridiculous.

This

I had little faith in Roffey (and pert) before listening to that interview I have zero faith after listening to it

She did acknowledge there was issues at the club. I wish Gerard asked her what they are. He was pretty soft with his questioning

Good luck to thommo. Remember when we recruited him he was going to play wing 🤦‍♂️

Is he an upgrade or downgrade on bowey ?? No way we could have both in the team
