  1. i demand he grow it back and plait it and dye one plait red and one plait blue really give hunt's 'footscray' headband a run for its money...
  2. saad bounces the ball the minute he gets possession i find it hilarious when carltank supporters go 'woof' about his kicking when the majority go 35m up in the air, 45m downfield, and more often than not result in a turnover
  3. i personally think he's not even worth close to that the 'average' afl player earns ~$375k per annum bowes, thanks to his willingness to shift his 5 year deal with gc17 to the final two years of his contract, is owed $850k pa over the next two years that, quite frankly, is absurd
  4. Bowes and pick 7 to the bears, pick 7 to the dogs for Dunkley?
  5. Didn’t place in the top 10 in Casey b and f despite playing majority of the year there He's got good speed but no more / less than Chandler, for instance, and none of the same ability to win and use his own ball
  6. Mids, mids, and more mids We have a special first three but after that it falls away in terms of skill, speed, and execution Our second string mids are average After that I’d say it’s outside run with skill, marking targets forward But, really, I would assume the priorities that our recruiters look at are the same as always: - can they win their own football? (Attitude) - can they execute under pressure? (Skill) - can they cope with the stresses and pressures of the afl environment? (Character)
  7. Bears have been a perennial top 4-6 side for the last five or so years? That's the definition of being in a premiership window I would’ve thought; very different to the aints one finals appearance every couple of years making them think they need to bring in high priced experience to ‘take them over the top’ Bears are pretty good in my book; the question is, are they good enough? So far over the last half decade, they haven’t proven to be
  8. this year's trade period is going to be super easy; barely an inconvenience
  9. neither narkle nor nelson needed

    brother in law who is a firefighter
  11. racist, sexist, fattist...
  12. he'd be our #1 rotation mid in 2023, just like he was at geelong in 2022 but i love that he's retiring a champion of the game as reigning premiership skipper
  13. whatwhat say what replied to Romey's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    no, we don't - it would be a cash drain with no real return on investment what, like the fully upgraded casey facility and massive improvement to gosch's? those quality training facilities?
  14. if - and let's face it, when - he misses on peptides, how many times will he have been 'next best' coaching option? is it only the peptides and gw$ that he's been in the running to win? or did he have interviews elsewhere last year, or even the year before? i'd rather take north or the bears than the peptides gig
  15. didn't have any interest last year, i wonder if there'll be any further interest in him this year? i can't see it
  16. he works in the second most myopic market outside of adelaide all part of the game
  17. Myth Talks a big game but is as pragmatic as a football manager needs to be
  18. according to i think sam edmund, tomlinson hasn't met with nor done a medical at footscray
  19. it's not just $1.6m over the next 2 years tho, is it? it's $1.6m over the next 2 years then, you'd think, at a bare minimum $0.8m over the two after that he's not going to want to sign only a two year deal - he's looking for security of position in the afl system as much as he's looking to FINALLY get paid what gc17 have owed him over a period of time it's a big commitment
  20. if being the operative word here
  21. this de goey stuff is hilarious
  22. same money over 4 years + 2 property portfolios
