We don't need her to "star" anymore with lots of possessions, she is far more valuable to the team controlling the game for us.

Not that I can remember, I think Freo last year has been the only team to score at that rate? The standard has raised again this year so the scoring will become more common. What I don't want to see is taking the foot off the pedal, the team needs to learn to bury sides.

Another goal, Sun's have started well, very good pressure and lots of clean ball movement. We seem to slowly getting on top as our experience and systems seems to getting cobwebs off.

Yeah surprised Cordner left, but I guess its more opportunity, maybe she wasn't going to be a regular with us? Looking forward to seeing our first game of the year, the first two games shows a steady rising in the standard expected.

Actually it stated in the Red Fox, Smith offered to stand aside and let RDB to take over. RDB refused because he didn't want the impression of Smith standing behind him and being seen in being a factor in RDB success, as what happened to Smith with Checker Hughes. Like Smith who went and coached elsewhere first its the bets policy, go to another club establish your own culture and values and then return. Our problem is that we didn't get him back earlier to modernise the club, while we still had a playing group with a culture of success.

Yeah they have a efficiency algorithm, not just dispels count. But in terms of real world impact very slim connection.

Given we get 6 new scraps every year and in WA maybe wear them once or twice :(. A blanket is on the cards. The quality of the scarves has really declined over the last few years.

While interest are low for "households" but not sure what the commercial rates are? Rather have zero debt and that is the safest way to be in the current climate, massively reduces the risk to the club.

Cats president has made the same announcement, end of 2021.

Obviously not by the people that matter in the club. Unless you have a top 5 pick, its mostly speculation and 2020 being the year it has with little footy in many states, recruiters would be working off their 2019 knowledge and character of players.

So happy the conference is gone, totally screwed us a few years ago. When are they going to get a proper full season and play everyone at least once.

nope, Powell...

Thank the liberals for that!

On memory it took his dad to settle down early on, if he's got his dad's smarts he'll make it.

fingers crossed then.

They have clarified its aimed at uni students and a few other points. (Not being a legal HR person) Illegality is only promising it will become F/T paid work if you work X for free. In this case it is not, totally agree that is not on. If your at uni, this i a great opportunity for those interested in a sporting field of work in the support skills. As pointed out focusing on the Uni market and not a blanket ad was maybe their misstep. I would support my kids to do it, if it matched their ambitions.

I disagree about the sentiments on the adversitment. If I was at uni /younger and wanted experience in those fields or recently graduated, I would jump at this opportunity. (besides being at the Dee's). The skills and networking to break into a tough industry would be immense. While I agree you get paid for what work you do, its up front and clear on what you need give and you'll get in return, and I can say to a future employee this in my track record working within an "elite" sporting organisation and what I helped achieve. Beats putting only Macca's/subway on a resume. I imagine in the past this would have been arranged directly with a university as part of their academic program. (Been involved in those in the past). Maybe covid has changed that and it presents an opportunity for others to get in.

People remember actions not talk.... time to walk the walk. But typical fluff piece.

The AFL will mediate. The article states there was an internal number agreed upon for the deal "$300k" it seems and they signed off on it. If I were the dogs I would enforce the original agreement, if not they can tell the pies to have him back. Because it's apparently leading to them having cap issues.

It could go both ways! They could match the weaker side to keep ongoing competition for spots in the 8 till the last round, That could be a win, depending your season. Or you plain manipulation to get a "big" club into the finals for revenue by giving them weaker sides to play. Though overall a more flexible fixture could result in a closer season.

No they screwed us with the positive test. Meant we missed that break to reset later in the season when it was in the frenzy. I liked the frenzy being WA I go to watch more footy as it was over the week, not over 3/4 days. More footy the better. Now that is has been done, I can see it becoming a regular part of the season. But in the long term the response may be like the baseball, footy where they have specialist players that rotate through to reduce fatigue.

Great article and of all the hiccups the AFL does, the player support during and post career must be close to world best.

Getting more picks in 2021 draft, apparently shaping up to be one of the best in while, almost super.

Yeah that injury was at the worst time, he found form again over a number of games. The question is what impact has it had on him since and can it be fixed. Hopefully it can.

I wouldn't mind a much higher inflation, deflates the true cost of my mortgage against a rising salary. Pretty much how people quickly paid off houses until the recession we had to have. Yes interest rates would be higher but I'd be getting faster pay rises.
