Training Ground?
I haven't missed the facepalm emoji but this screams out for its restoration.

Dawn of a new Era - Paul Guerra article 18.10.2025
This is how journalism was ruined. People stealing stuff. Now we complain about lack of competition, lack of depth and anything else you can think of, like 'The Age is now the Harvey Norman Tribune'. Be careful what you wish for.

Welcome to Demonland: Picks 7 & 8
And Laurie has not been given a chance. Like all coaches, SimonG had his favourites and some blokes, Laurie among them, were never given a real go to show what they can do. Toby Bedford is another outstanding example. So if King doesn't see much in Laurie then we'll need to concede his pick was a bust but I hope the kid can make it under the new regime. Ditto JVR, although he showed promise and appears to have stalled, might progress as a forward with a better support structure which is what (gulp) Mihocek is there to provide.

Farewell Christian Petracca
I look forward to his tell-all, if it ever comes. I'm also interested to know of his regard among his team mates over the past 12 months. He has come across as a malcontent and unduly arrogant but that might just be my ignorance showing through. If the accounts of the players' response to his B&F speech are accurate it's for the best he has gone. Still, I think I'll rewatch the '21 finals series to see what he gave us in his prime. That post game speech round 24 of 2021 rings so hollow now...and it irked me a little at the time since I've never been embarrassed to wear our colours. So glad he did not go to the Pies. They've done us enough harm these past two seasons. Our compensation looks fair. It's up to the club to make the best of it. We have the chance for a genuine re-set, and I like Steele as a stop-gap, experienced mid. Looking forward to see what King can do with them.

Farewell Christian Petracca
Really? A first round draft pick? Geelong was offering a second rounder and the opportunity to dump some salary. So who, according to Hird was offering a first rounder? (Hint: I think James is gilding the lily for the sake of making an argument.)

My first thought is this could be good for us. Kanga strikes me as a volatile and unpredictable piece of work, bloody minded and hard to work with.

Leek Aleer
I know the Saints are supposed to be Bambi and we'e all supposed to be ready to celebrate their second premiership, but this stinks. I truly hope they have cruelled their credibility within the AFL for years to come. Four days ago Gubby Allen was saying we're just going to get this done and now they find they have bungled their numbers or whatever, and they cut Aleer loose having promised him the world. What a bunch of donkeys. Long may their flounder. I mean, what have they really imported for all their spending? Silvagni is the definition of a banged up hack. TdK is a wannabe or a maybe, let's see. Keep spending you clowns. Meanwhile we might just pick up the kid you conned into looking to buy a house in Melbourne.

Geelong was offering their second round last year so something around 32, actually.

Well, he calls himself Young Angus so let him have his fun. I for one enjoyed his rant. A little irrationality can be good for mental health at times.
