  1. exactly we don't know what the discussions between the clubs actually were, and we don't know what dingley said to her in those negotiations i'm happy she's staying; we have a dearth of players with her experience and in her age bracket - we'll be better for having her as part of the squad in 2025 as opposed to another first round pick
  2. chin chandler too i think windsor will, body permitting, be able to 'roll' thru the midfield at some point in his career i love the idea of him being a 30+ possession weapon by foot off half back; we've not had many over the years - salem in 2021 was one (and integral to our premiership success) as well as davey for a while plus johnstone and yze going back to the daniher era
  3. his dad changed the role of the small forward being as much about defensive pressure as forward impact i remember watching aaron play a trial game in the nation's capital - where a 36 year old sav rocca turned chris lamb inside out and i thought 'oh dear' - before he was 'officially' on our rookie list and he was just electric he probably retired too early imo
  4. agreed - "the big steal" is truly one of the greats of oztrayan cinema
  5. More board than admin candidate
  6. 8-1-1 record is pretty orright, with two australian championship belts i'd wager she's made significantly more money with 10 boxing bouts than 69 aflw games, as nice as some of them have been...
  7. her sponsored ambassador visit to the olympics had nothing to do with her shoulder being cactus, again which is exactly why dingley doesn't want to pay 'overs' for her - she's struggled for years with her shoulders i imagine her boxing career - as opposed to her aflw hobby - has more to do with that than anything
  8. dazn (which i refuse to call da zone, it's daz n all the way for me) is in ridiculous amounts of debt and have an appalling record for streaming services their rollout for serie a coverage has seen them taken to court by the italian govt; their nfl gamepass has been riddled with bugs and errors a friend of mine who said to me that this was 'on' over the weekend believes the tech is a huge part of the appeal for dazn, with the streaming set-up and capabilities of stream motion (kayo, binge) a possibly signficant improvement over their current architecture and core set-up, not to mention their design and usability of course, the same was true when disney bought bamtech from the mlb only to get it, get the techs to look under the hood, and realise they'd been gordon farkas'd
  9. knee jerk, reactionary, and po-faced negative take
  10. hard not to see her winning a few more before her career is out superstar
  11. @Ghostwriter - if you could, I would appreciate finding out if Couch has left the wta behind and is with us permanently, or if he’s going back to tennis fitness roles once the circuit gets underway again in 2025
  12. theere's four crawford reports - not just vfl / afl, but also soccer, independent sports comission, and one most recently for cricket australia an absolute legend of sports administration in this country
  13. bbbut who will feed the content machine?!?? do it for the CLICKS
  14. he's not a lost boy anymore! i think we easily forget the situation that mcadam was coming out of, where he couldn't ever get his body 'right' this is our second summer to work with him and i'm confident our tailored program will suit him we've generally speaking taken a couple of seasons to get imports into the position where they can impact for us similarly, it's why i'm interested to see how billings goes for us in 2025
  15. this the aflpa is dead against it it will be interesting to see which they come around to first - in-season trading or trades without consent
  16. Mega deal that would make sen salivate (if they covered aflw properly)
  17. surely the fact that she's in the team every week, without fail as she's not regularly injured, sais that she quite clearly is in the best 20? she makes others around her better because she plays a sacrificial game
  18. we're all a bit wobbly in the legs after racking up
  19. yeah but more about making gc17 pay up
  20. so she's made her decision to go, i guess will leave just Lauren Pearce, Sarah Lampard and Paxy Paxman as our only 'original list' members
  21. be interesting to see if the filth big on harris they should
  22. possibly too many sylables; 'sheets' for short? they could say it like clay davis
  23. these are the collection of players that it's hardest to get a read on at this stage of the season even allowing for trac mostly rolling up into the midfield, there's not enough pressure on the oppo coming out of d50 without pickett there it'll be interesting to see what structure they go with here
