The curse of pick 6 and why Leo Lombard must save us
So we bid on Hector Lombard to make it harder for GC? Honest question.

Logo looks garbage, might as well have printed it on computer paper.

Nathan Jones joins MFC as an Assistant Coach
Not sure if you're aware Mr 58er but Adem Yze was a multiple premiership winning assistant coach at Hawthorn before coming to us, not fresh out of the game.

Insane, just insane. Bears rally to setup a 48ish yard FG attempt for Santos and the Packers block it to hold on and win!

2024 Phantom Drafts
Surely they would be keen on Langford as well?

2024 Phantom Drafts
Seems like your typical strong bodied power mid with a lot to offer around the ground. I was the same in not bothering to look at him but these types of players aren't going out of fashion anytime soon.

Assuming we keep 5 & 9, who are you picking?
I'm going Langford and Smillie. That probably changes tomorrow.

The Kalani White Thread
Just the Allies game and one against Cannons. Small sample size but also likely more than Joe Blow down the street.

The Kalani White Thread
If you think you'd get facepalms then I'm about to go nuclear... I don't want a team full of Father sons, I feel that so many posters on here want to have as many F/S as possible but it doesn't float my boat, actually it grosses me out if I'm being honest. If a F/S prospect is damn good or has potential to grow into something amazing then absolutely go for it. Of course I have no issue with a slight leg up (like Kobe Farmer training with us a few years back) either. But having over around 8 on the list seems like nepotism city to me and I don't see the romance that others do in it. Best player for the spot, not hard.

The Kalani White Thread
I don't quite see the traits that they obviously see if playing Kalani down back. The next 6 months will be interesting for him.

Simply the best from Sharp.

Assuming we keep 5 & 9, who are you picking?
Oh yeah, he certainly was. Had a 14.5 beep test and I'm sure he was top 5 in the time trial.

Assuming we keep 5 & 9, who are you picking?
Thanks Adonski. Due to some other life circumstances I've missed about 2 weeks of draft developments and conversation.

Assuming we keep 5 & 9, who are you picking?
And if it is an issue, his IQ and speed of decision making more than makes up for it. Smartest brain in the draft for me.

Assuming we keep 5 & 9, who are you picking?
I'm warming to Travaglia at 9, think he offers the most versatility. Still hot on Lindsay but it looks like a bit of a reach at 9?

I like the alternative pathway into AFL coaching sometimes. There's no hard and fast rule.

2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen
Don't bust the merchandise. That's the bottom line. I'm sure he's happy to pinch hit ruck but he's also still in the phase where his thirst for the game is clouding long term judgement. I think the Ox comparison is good in the way that if he's going to ruck I'd like him to be a forward line ruck specialist. I don't need him taking 30% of centre bounces.
