whatwhat say what

I'm presuming they're injured too Decent side regardless

that's ryan '2015 premiership player' schoenmakers, and a great comparison 12 years on an afl list - 121 games, 51 goals, 1 premiership, 1 acl, 1 achilles not a bad career at all

fixed 😈 can't see laird playing anywhere but midfield - he was their best and fairest winner as a mid in 2021 i think it's more likely they'll re-tool sloane into a different role, a la the peppies sending heppell to the back flank to clear space for zerrett and ellen to do their thing as their 1-2 mids

didn't get past first line as laird is a midfielder for the crows, not a defender anymore

everything but the girl but...not tracey thorn

Plugger Mac was great until injury late in the season; great to see him polling so strongly

best guess is probably the same as everyone else's: 1. oliver 2. petracca 3. gawn 4. lever 5. salem

at some point other clubs are going to refuse to trade with us in the full knowledge that we're a pivot point for picks

don't forget the peptides!

cows and pear have been crying out for a friday night game for YEARS afl relents...and makes the game a foxtel / kayo exclusive in a head-to-head against the reigning premiers and the peppies 😈

the answer to this one is super simple - two board members at the dogs work for disney, who are the naming rights sponsor for docklands you scratch, i scratch...

our fixture looks less than ideal from a commercial attendance pov but should be 5 of the first 6 games on prime time fta

i'll take that bet, particularly if you caveat it with 'home' friday night games vs 'away' friday night games

based on his first seven games, should be raging hot favourite for rising star winner in 2022

if his high school high jump records are true, i think the aoc is a bigger threat - by the time the 2032 olympics roll around in his home town of the gold coast he'll be cherry ripe to claim a medal

i think the athletic demands of 'modern footy' has meant that players are hitting their peaks later, once they have the incredible fitness base that is required to compete against experienced, hardened opposition

what the official crowd figure? i know they said 'around 35k' but it felt like more the demon roar is so loud and true when it rings out at the g great turnout, great day

14 and a mad demon supporter, along with his younger twin brothers

it'll be packed it'll be our home game presumably we'll play carlton the following thurs?

i want a jaguar, dagnabbit

when things are glum there's worse to come

absolutely they did first they picked the eyes out of the rotting corpse of ol' fitzroy, traded off assets to bring in more, and then used the cola allowance to maintain a list that was paying 125% more than 14 other clubs

been sent down a mad dad's army left turn as a result of this thread...loved watching that with my mad demon grandpa to bring the topic back to howes, we looks like a membrey-type to me more than mackie be interesting to see how they develop him cos his marking, decision-making, and his disposal all look good in that 2-min clip

brisbane's sustained success was built on the back of the death of ol fitzroy and salary cap benefits - loved watching them swans rode the cola train for a while (now onto the nga); meth coke was on the gear - their clashes were legendary geelong under thompson were brilliant to watch - their father-sons basically made em clarko knew how to get his team to perform to the occasion and 'just get it done' otherwise, but also got lucky with the three in a row being against interstate sides; the grand final he lost to the swans was easily the best game of that run of four beveridge is amazing at masterminding ways to win and finding new ways to lose - i personally think they should have been better than they are over the last few years and his 'tinkering' doesn't help their team balance hardwick coached a great style that worked perfectly for their team and built around the biggest superstar in the game since simpson seems a good coach but meth coke are very much home town bullies who got lucky that the colliwobbles still exist since goodwin moved down from the coaching box to the bench midway thru 2020, we haven't looked back - he is clearly a 'people' person and manages to get a great read on the game at ground level and communicates brilliant with his side in front of him and those coaching staff still up in the box i want a dynasty dagnabbit

isn't that first round 22?
