CHANGES: Rd 17 vs Port Adelaide
I'm sure it's been mentioned in the previous 19 pages but when do teams get announced?

Gary Moorcroft
Showed no respect for the jumper in the handful of games he played for us. Never forget him laughing it up with his ex Essendon teammates after a loss

Frustrated

POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs GWS
Hunt was obviously sent forward with instructions to take the game on, which he did . Playing a role he hasn't done all year we where chasing the game, shouldn't have been in that position

Exactly

GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs GWS
A smart forward leading to the right places makes a whole forward line function we are crying out for it with Tom doing his work up on the wing
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs Essendon
Yes. BB would be handy tonight. Would be leading to the right spaces and competing on the dump kick
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs Essendon
Thinking that myself. We need a target

TEAMS: Rd 15 vs Essendon
Yep come a long way with selection since the Pruess in a Cairns Hurricane debarcle

COVID & AFL 2021
I hope you are wrong too but basic Maths and history shows that HQ will have another leak . Just a matter of how much is spread in the community before detection. Another lockdown of some form is inevitable

POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood
Same no excuse as we didn't bring it but the shorter ground threw our spacing out

Who'd you have in?

GAMEDAY: Rd 13 v Collingwood
Forward entries horrible, picked out the opposition at least 6 times that qtr
-
TEAMS: Rd 13 vs Collingwood
Can't drop sparrow after 19 disp and a goal and his ability to get straight into the contest and pace of afl everytime he is called upon. Melksham has to make way. So Langdon for Melksham easy . Selection had been spot on this year unlike the last two and goody had already dropped his mate melky before so I'm sure common sense will prevail

Brayden Maynard
I really like him as a player been watching him ever since he went head to head with Jesse Hogan in 2018 I think it was , didn't take a backward step that day despite the size difference

Nathan Buckley Steps Down as Collingwood Coach
Eddie left the place a total mess. Shows how good a leader he was towards the end

Rating 2021 team Against 1998, 2000 & 2018
You're right I did get the opponent confused. we got screwed in 98 in that we beat the lower ranked Adelaide in the first final then had to go through higher ranked opponents than Adelaide in the prelim despite fishing higher than then in the ladder and beating them in the first final. They changed the system the following year

Very easy Langdon for Melksham for mine

Rating 2021 team Against 1998, 2000 & 2018
OP is right the 98 finals system screwed is bigtime. We destroyed the crows in the first final then for made to travel to the west. Farmer was at the peak of his powers and McLeod was sent to him in a surprise move at the time and he torched him. Having said that this is most balanced and consistent team I've seen in my 42 years.
