Same here. Not entirely sure why but I just don't see Waterman as gettable. Would be like Viney leaving around 2019.

No real bike fanatic needs a bike shop for repairs!

True legend of the game. It's been an absolute pleasure watching this man go about it, the term generational is thrown around too much at the moment but he is someone who has defined his and then some. When you see kids at junior level running around doing the 'don't argue' you see this effect. Not that I would have begrudged him the chance to head north for a few years, it is rather fitting to see him retire as a one club player. Thanks for everything you've given the game Dusty.

As Binman often says, our default gameplan is built for finals footy. Come finals time you will see a lot of teams play the forward half territory game. But during the home and away season if we were to go back to that I agree we would need to fix up the way we setup at stoppage and we absolutely need to get the high performance program spot on. The style we were playing is extremely taxing over the course of a season. Tweaking a gameplan is a much harder balancing act than people think and I can see just how easy it is to 'overcorrect'. I would like to still be doing this to try and find the right balance but it's important to not trek too far away from our DNA in my opinion.

You mean you were only partially invested in it throughout the year? Yee gads!

Was wondering when this fluff was rearing it's head again. I'd hate to be a dinosaur stick in the mud so bring it on..

Come on that's a bit much.

If absolutely nothing else, it shows that the guy can coach.

Another Sat night game? *sighs* argh yeah, I'll be there..

Like so many other hidden stats they have 'locked away' in their safe. So annoying and I'm convinced they have a deal with the broadcasters so those of us who like stats will still listen to carp commentary and media shows.

For instance, someone like Clarry. I understand and respect this isn't the real version of Clarry but with a player of his ability and stature, you would at least think that a 70-80% Oliver would still provide good value and that our midfield could hold their own in the contest. Not downplaying this in any way but I don't want to see this factor take away from other glaring issues like the way we are setting up at stoppages, depth in midfield etc.

Fair points but he's got a body that should allow him to play till he's 40. Locking down 4 years of the next 12 is probably a smart move 🤪
-
The model wingman in the current game which most other clubs and fans see as the benchmark. Stoked we've got Lingers locked away for another 4 😁

A hopeful look at 2025 (from a pessimist)

Remember the title of the trade board at the end of 2022? "How to get back on track" Turns out the devil was in the detail, you really need to nail the off-season to keep the window open. -
While I'd like it done pretty soon, I can see Langdon as someone taking the cucumber boy approach (as in cool as a..)

This is THE post. Take a bow Sir.

Not even the biggest fans of post-clearance possession can defend that one.

Already planning for take away dinner that Sunday night.

We just need Gus Brayshaw mentally healthy and living his best life.

Get most of the guys shut down and play mostly kids.

I'm declaring war on this thread.

Need to stick together.
