Who Will Be Our Next Coach?
yr not the boss of me now and yr not so big i dispute yr assertion that he looks 'even better' for the crom than he did for us; he looks essentially the same to me, playing the same role for a near identical output, from a team involvement, statistical, and leadership perspective i think we can agree we miss him
-
Who Will Be Our Next Coach?
he's no better, no worse for the crom than he was for us perhaps yr perception is that you negatively assess his mfc performances in comparison with his efforts for the crom?

Who Will Be Our Next Coach?
eh? he's playing the exact same role for them as he did for us absolutely vital for a good side

Rule changes proposed for 2026
the estimate is that this will result in another 2 free kicks per game no more cries of 'deliberate!' or 'insufficent intent!' but instead 'do the lasso!'

not a strong draft

Delistings 2025
watching on the teev and it was clear - they had someone sitting on him to limit his run still think he'll make it

Marcus Windhager
remember when the aints brought in recruits from other clubs - paddy ryder, bobby hill, dougal howard, mason wood, zak jones, jack higgins - and the best they achieved was losing an elimination final at the g to gw$? i see this as little different

Rule changes proposed for 2026
AFL to propose introduction of last touch rule from 2026Greg Swann confirms his first change.Changes proposed include: • last touch rule for out of bounds as applied in SANFL & AFLW, • no more subs • centre bounce likely to go as it wants to encourage 'athletic' ruckmen, not wrestlers. The last rule expected to favour athletic high jumpers like Kalani White. However, the interchange cap is expected to remain at 75.

Who Will Be Our Next Coach?
he has no experience away from the filth, he hasn't coached at any level for over 4 years, and he doesn't know whether he wants it? basically rules him out for mine

No - he’s a terrible kick

CASEY: Semi Final vs Frankston
Was tagged to stop his rebound, which says volumes given it’s been two games back since injury He reminds me of Heath Shaw a bit - get the ball in his hand and it results in low trajectory bullet passes Should be pushing to be first option rebounder going forward

Marcus Windhager
i think adding windsor in there changes it up a bit too i personally like rivers on half back, but will be curious to see where lindsay ends up - he reminds me so much of sidebottom

Marcus Windhager
at the end of 2021, we targeted and had an agreement in place to land adam cerra...but couldn't get the deal done at the end of 2022, we lost dogga for high picks, and brought in grundy for little at the end of 2023, we lost grundy for little, and used the draft picks we had to land windsor and tholstrup at the end of 2024, we targeted houston, and rumours are we had the deal done, until we plummeted down the ladder and didn't want to give up the high pick / he didn't want to come to us we target a lot of quality players, but the reality is that not a lot of quality players move at the end of seasons the likes of schache, billings, etc. etc. have cost us nada on the trade table, and delivered nada on the field let's see if we can overcome the biggest hurdle - getting windhager to want to come to us
-
Wade Derksen
how about no trade and we take him as, effectively, a delisted free agent?
-
Marcus Windhager
now that i am aware, thanks to the quotes of others, that picket thinks he's not worth pick 23 i am all for the trade not a first rounder tho
-
Marcus Windhager
i like the comparison with harmes i dunno windhager seems like the sort of bog standard defensively-minded inside mid who is a good, ordinary soldier and not a 'difference maker' to our side

dunkley was, and is, a far superior player to windhager

CASEY: Semi Final vs Frankston
laurie knows where he's at - at half time in the elimination final, he said he knows he needs to get past viney, oliver, and petracca for an inside mid role i'd say it's those three plus pickett, windsor, rivers, tholstrup that's seven players ahead of him in the picking order, plus you could add langford, culley who have been playing wing in the afl but look like inside mid options as they continue to progress, which is the role culley for instance has played at vfl level too if we bring in windhager and don't move any of the above out, then that's arguably 10 players who would be preferred to laurie as midfield options he's up against it to make it

Marcus Windhager
good grief - aints fans reckon he's worth a first round pick... shirley not?!?? windhager is a good, ordinary, work-a-day defensive mid who is an average kick
-
Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver in 2026
asa vs private arrangement, i assume

The List Manager Tim Lamb
almost positive he got the ball at half forward at one point i could be wrong
-
The List Manager Tim Lamb
he was definitely on ground in the last quarter last night i'm pretty sure he offered nothing

Marcus Windhager
interesting option to add in to our midfield defensively-minded and strong over the ball yet not a clearance midfielder but not overly quick nor better than average by foot, i wouldn't have thought?
