archie perkins, now at the peptides, was clear in his pre-draft interviews that he had told clubs he didn't want to move states

fixed it for you he has: nothing to do with the mfc coaches nothing to do with the mfc players nothing to do with mfc board he's no more an expert than anyone on this message board - in fact, i would speculate that we watch the mfc games a lot more closely and with just as analytical eye as figjam as we are emotionally invested in the club and he's just another talking head on the tv

he tried that at the end of last year and no one wanted him then, either

tendon injury was the rumour from the get go was probably 10-12 from then but @Webber or another may know more about expected timelines

More father-sons in the offing?!??

Crom fans are horrible? Well, I for one am shooketh…

tom mcdonald looked fine crossing the road with his eldest, but he really needs to make sure the #6 tram is stopped before he crosses high st

this but not that and definitely

hence why manipulate was in quotation marks we got what he was worth imo

it's a purely financial move by the league and would mean no more silly bye week before the finals starts it's going to happen

*you're

because the afl need north to be better than we were in the early 2010s why? no idea i suspect that they'll get a high compo pick for mckay leaving rather than access to sanders carte blanche, but they'll probably pick him anyway

Reckon the afl will ‘manipulate’ the compensation for McKay a la Frawley (ie actually give compensation from his departure its worth) and make sure north get a pick after their first pick So it could well end up being meth coke, gc17 having to use points to match for walters, north, north, hawks, our pick from Flagmantle

"throw your arms around me" is their iconic standard, but i love that whole album 1986 was a helluva year for oztrayan rock, which as a then seven year old i only know in retrospect: the triffids - born sandy devotional AND in the pines hunters & collectors - human frailty the go-betweens - liberty belle... crowded house - self-titled nick and the bad seeds - your funeral my trial AND kicking against the [censored] paul kelly and the coloured girls - gossip died pretty - free dirt arguably one of the greatest years for the local scene, i would wager

i...don't? the team have been at pains to say we base our game plan on contest and defence i think one of the things that they don't say is that we also base it on good decision makers in the back half and pressure in the front half the likes of the three talls plus salem, mcvee, rivers, bowey mean that we have 'smart' players behind the ball to set up the play as we bring it forward and then the two talls and the three smalls to bring it to ground and keep it there in the f50

for the first 15 mins or so brisbane could not penetrate our zone, but once they 'worked it out' they sliced through with relative ease, until the final 15 mins what changed?

q for @binman - what does he have against "holy grail"?!?? i take it he's more of a the jaws of life kinda fella over ghost nation, but surely human frailty is numero uno? kiss my art his go-to for p&d?

nathan buckley will never win a premiership, as a player or a coach

based on what i saw his defensive workrate was one of the best for vic metro, and his i50 kicks were to the advantage of the leading forward he didn't look as small as he did in the highlights video previously shared - i don't think he'll ever 'fill out' but his body shape reminded me a bit of dean laidley

Kangas are - according to the Age - applying for an exemption to the draft to pre-list Sanders in the same way that gc17 did Joel Jeffries and Alex Davies when they were considered first round talent It would be so nice if the draft was not compromised by decisions made by suits

what jvr did for a big stretch of games in the middle of the season as the #1 tall forward in our set-up was extraordinary for a kid of 20 years of age i'm expecting him to become a serious target, if he's not one already

tasmania have their first larke medalist in 33 years; ryley sanders won for the allies, while colby mckercher - also from launceston - was runner up

p&d vs h&c

much better since going on-ball
