whatwhat say what

i'm intending on buying afl membership tickets on wednesday, so someone can use my barcode if they wish - just drop me a pm if anyone has a spare afl member barcode i'll happily take that tho! taking two kids who weren't even born when the dees last made finals - so very exciting

he ain't wrong tho we're out of the running due to the sheer $$ being offered to him by north he either takes half the pay offered to him by them and stays at meth coke or he's a shinboner for the next six to seven years

De Goey gets named in the 40-man All-Oz squad and Petracca, with basically identical (if not slightly better) numbers, is the next Col’n Sylvia? Hm....

Good bump

6: Gawn 5: Harmes 4: Salem 3: Petracca 2: Brayshaw 1: Frost

no, i welcome the opportunity and challenge to take them on for a third time this year we've blown it both times previous - third time's the charm! both games so far this year have been super entertaining as a neutral as well

watched on tv for the most part, and gee the second half was poor thought johnstone was - as goodoil noted - neat by foot, but he gets caught ball-watching a lot wagner probably the best of the demons from my spot on the couch, closely followed by pedersen there ain't much left when the likes of jkh and bugg are sitting on the sidelines awaiting late call-up against gw$

poos&wees

I can see why we’re keen on Langdon - has speed and goes both inside and outside the contest

Yeah...like a Viney...

Eh? $cully was out of contract and cos of the rules at the time was essentially a free agent for GW$ So we would always get Hogan as our compo for losing $cully was acquisition of the pre-draft selection, where we picked Hogan Completely different circumstance to what I am referring to; I’m talking about players under contract, e.g. Ryan Ferguson, who are told that they are no longer wanted and then refuse to be traded to Hawthorn when the deal is there, or Howe, who got mega-money offers from both the northern franchises but instead took less money than he was on at our club to go to the filth a year later when his contract was up As long as a player’s contract can be ‘honoured’ (e.g. length and value) then they should not have a choice when it comes to being traded out - it’s the logical converse effect of allowing free agency (e.g. a player can walk where they want when out of contract after a certain number of years service)

The Hoff and Robbie Gray are two of the most unselfish and brilliant players in the competition Westhoff in particular is severely underrated everywhere outside of Alberton Port’s midfield is very one-paced outside of Polec - and it looks like he’s definitely on his way to North for their first round pick, which they are desperate to get rid of so that they aren’t forced to pay ‘overs’ for Tarryn Thomas

nope you go where you're drafted, until you are a free agent oh, and if the team who holds your contract wants to ship you off elsewhere whilst you are under contract? sayonara! the only way free agency should continue to exist in the afl system is if the clubs have the power to trade players where they want whilst in-contract jeremy howe would currently be playing for gc17

My tip is the peptides will play a fair whack of friday / thursday night football next year... I actually really don’t think they’re that ‘attractive’ to watch

that's a crazy big change to drafting

so good

i'd have him, happily, as as a free agent i think he'd add immediate depth to our side he'd get a game ahead of spargo, hannan, and possibly avb in our side i reckon if we can teach melksham how to be a gun, we could do similar with dahlhaus, and with mccartney there he'd know what sort of a person he is and how he'd fit into our side gaff should, absolutely, be the priority

Almost positive that Hogan played CHF his underage All-oz year but was NAMED at CHB...in much the same way that one year Pavlich played forward all year but was named at FB He’s a natural CHF, roaming up and down the ground, using his endurance to best effect

Lycett will be at Port next year

The final round of the home and away season often turns up shock results - see Port drawing with (I think it was) Richmond a few years back (2012?), Melbourne dropping the game to the filth last year etc. Bears and the Shockers absolutely could get it done...here’s hoping they can, and we do the right thing by society and knock off that franchise on our home deck

Matthew Lloyd for mine, without the diving

Really thought this was gonna be about Christian Salem being the hard unit half back general that Hodge is

I don’t understand the hate the afl approaches a media personality to gauge his opinion...they’re doing this with a plethora of parties...

please let cooper prove to be as talented as his dad but with stronger ligaments

jack had a day out on media street a few weeks ago about how normally at that time of year he was planning what he'd do on his holidays in september and he was looking forward to finally tasting finals footy in 2018 yeah...but nah... i still can't fathom that a player of his undoubted skill has been dropped by every senior coach he has had throughout ten years in the system; it's an absolute indictment on him as a player so happy to have fritsch!
