whatwhat say what

he's ash johnson's brother, which i didn't realise

he's not really a small forward he's also capable of playing as a running half-back as he's a lovely kick according to my crom supporting mate

depth can play forward or back

third round pick at best you'd think good kick, would take him

there's only three artists needed for pre-grand final entertainment... mike brady - "up there cazaly" mark seymour - "holy grail" greg champion - "the thing about football" go on, admit it, yr singing the WOAH OH OH OH bit of the latter to yrself right now

now he needs to get to 100 games!

we won't be paying a break-glass-in-case-of-emergency $650k a year for the next four seasons there's salary cap savings to be made

ninefax saying doggies are favourites to land pick 4 at this point in time

goodwin confirmed at his press conference that he's in

plugger mac for milkshake confirmed, as expected this is the most hyped up i have seen goodwin in a press conference

keep pushing back pls...

also saying "High chance of showers, most likely from the late morning" it could be fine - if not a touch chilly - by the bounce

i find this bafflingly confusing what is a drip line? what does a Y signify? an H? is last row the last row that's exposed to the elements? clear as a cloudy sky...

wet games just bring us closer to other clubs

i don't think the question is whether we play plugger mac or grundy, i think it's a q of whether we play tomlinson or disco

dog making the all oztrayan squad is classic wa centrism just as nic nat made the squad, and even the team, for many years is that he had his 'boosters' on the selection panel i still think he's going to be one of the best players in the competition over the next decade but i wish nothing but mediocrity upon him

that's weird, the sun was saying he was but, then sun being wrong? colour me shocked

is one of the reasons he's not being 'talked up' - despite this sort of performance and being declared vic metro mvp at the national championships - because he was an 'overager' in the underage competition this year?

interested to hear kornes say he reckons sydney are the team that are in competition with the pear for grundy's services as a general rule, what sydney want sydney get - they're happy to pay 'overs' as they know that they get a swathe of academy selections every few years, most who are excellent midfielders they currently hold picks 11, 29, 30, 41, 49, 85 i would presume their first rounder would be out of the question, but it would be handy for us to hold three picks inside the first round to really target that pick 1 alternatively those back to back second rounders might be attractive to say, oh i dunno, gc17 who are looking to maximise points

not good news re tv ratings: https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/scoring-crowds-rise-for-aflw-but-tv-audience-keeps-sliding-20230903-p5e1ll.html what i'm curious to see - and @binman might appreciate this - is what the wagering turnover is on it this season even the women's world cup was very poor for the bookmakers, and if aflw doesn't convert interest in bookies then the broadcasters will vote with their $$ and descope broadcast

in terms of generation compensation for us? surely someone signs him on a ben mckay type deal and we get a band 1 immediately-after-our-first-rounder compensation...

if we take on the whole of his salary we wouldn't be giving up a first rounder but i don't think it's likely to happen no matter what

i was too, but i think it was lack of finesse and footskills that put a lot of other sides off

looking like a last national draft pick / rookie pick

north want him as a 'freebie' by dint of his aboriginality putting him into their nga and them being garbage for an extended period of time
