  1. unless they win the next 20 games...
  2. i still maintain there is zero $$ value in a tasmanian team coming in as the 19th team - adds nothing to the media rights coffers, which is what funds the game at the end of the day it's definitely got a feed good factor, but tasmania's population hovers around that 500,000 mark - it's dwarfed by the gw$ or gc17 catchment areas for population growth, let alone the value of having two extra teams up north in terms of media rights value i loathe those franchises, but it was the 'correct' move to bring them in; tasmania is just pandering to already converted footy fans i'm more curious about when they'll bring the 20th team in - i am assuming it'll be a third team based in perth
  3. nope he did all that in the wet and we still barely lost
  4. not enough force - downgrade it to a fine (as per sicily)
  5. supercoach points = champion data rankings
  6. if lever is fine, bizarrely i think it's more like that tomlinson comes in and they don't shuffle everything around with petty going back
  7. replacing who tho? to allow salem to move back into the midfield?
  8. one thing that i'd like to see change is pup brown moved out of 'starvation corner' of half-forward he's not going to learn anything in the vfl trying to play the role anb plays at senior level from memory, nibbler played predominantly midfield at vfl level before he found his niche as that gut-running half-forward i get that brown is very slight but it'll benefit him being more involved in the play he played mid at underage level, and i'm confident he's smart enough in the contests to be more involved than he will be in the forward set-up at casey
  9. it was a genuine question; i could only think of weitering and murphy at the filth as prime tall defenders currently injured; didn't even know marchbank was crocked and docherty was a shame to see injured last round
  10. nepo baby mcguire report on lever at least makes it's clear it's not as bad as it could be for lever...
  11. you enjoying all the boeing shenanigans too? i agree it's completely irrational but... planes 😶
  12. looks like libs might only get 14-15 seats of the 35, which places them in a very awkward position final make-up of their parliament won't be known for some time
  13. same day as melbourne vs sydney in 2023 i think? 42k there that day
  14. game will be won / lost in the midfield gawn, oliver, viney, petracca, sparrow, langdon, windsor, billings vs soldo, butters, rozee, drew, farrell, wines, houston, boak they bat deeper than us, i would say, but we have higher quality i love watching butters - one of the best players running around at the moment
  15. is there another club that has their best two tall defenders injured?
  16. just a titch over 30k at the tigs vs the pear on a beautiful sunday arvo what will maclure say...
  17. starts at 4 should be 4-6 worse than peppa-pig, not as bad as webster
  18. an injury
  19. just being assessed they said
  20. sloppy game of footy, but entertaining enough
  21. for mine, it's the little things, and the positioning in the contest he'll ultimately be better amongst better company and playing a lesser role
  22. the notion of 'manning up' hasn't been the best form of defensive set-up since before the 1990s
  23. i don't think he's in our best 22, even with may and lever out I quite like this proposition: OUT: may, lever IN: Fullarton, Woewodin petty and salem stay down back, hore comes in to starting 22, fullarton becomes forward / ruck relief, and woey 2.0 is the sub tholstrup to debut in place of windsor on the 5 day break for gil's round vs the crom
  24. based on the first three quarters he's not going to see much of it down there
  25. yep i'm more and more thinking... OUT: may, lever IN: Fullarton, Woewodin petty and salem stay down back, hore comes in to starting 22, fullarton becomes forward / ruck relief, and probably woey 2.0 is the sub tholstrup the pick of our next tier mid types, but i reckon he comes in to give windsor a rest for the 5 day break
