Also, just quietly reading Adelaide board, this match could be the end of Gather Round, if we do the expected and don't mess the bed.
where's the 'what they're saying on west lakes boulevard' thread?

may in for hore with woey 2.0 to stay as the sub, you'd think

Anyone else worried with how LVR has started?
Hasn't been able to clunk any marks this season and has only the 5 snags from 4 games
Averaging 8 disposals and 3 marks per game
presuming you mean jvr?
he literally kicked 3 goals vs footscray two games ago

Hopefully Kolt plays but I reckon they will bring in Laurie for Chandler, May for Hore and Woey for Billings with Kolt possibly the sub.
i can't see kolt debuting as a sub - goodwin, thankfully, seems to be one of the coaches opposed to that approach

They still owe us for Scott Thompson.
now this one i agree with
from memory it effectively became a swap of thommo for moloney?
the latter was good; the former was very good

You can't look at what lever has done for us since the trade. You have to look at it at the time the trade was made.
They absolutely made us pay up which is all I'm saying we should do should petty want to leave
No Melbourne nice guy like grundy
two first round picks is what a 21 year old tall defender who has made an all oztrayan squad should be worth and that we got some 'change' out of it - and with jt picking the eyes out of the draft in selecting petty - was a bonus
similarly, by this logic, we made flagmantle 'pay up' for dog jackson; never had a team given as much for a player as they did to get him in
getting rid of grundy - who didn't want to be there and was contracted to us for ~650k for the next handful of years - for a pick 46 last year and sydney's future second-round pick (which is actually more than it cost us to get him in i think? pick 27 or so?) was good business

it's subjective, but I thought May had more to do with us being good than Richmond gets with Lynch, on Premierships though... can't really argue, I would say if we swapped lynch for May I don't think we win '21.
they also got him 'for free' whereas we had to trade to acquire may

Who would be the top 3 destinations for Reid in Melbourne?
I seriously hope it isn't one of Collingwood or Geelong.
every team
they're all going to offer him a small fortune
kid is good

Genuine question, while I wouldn't mind cheaper, you'd have to say he was and is worth every cent. We bought a IWC not a Timex.
2nd question, did we do better with May than Richmond has done with Lynch?
tigs in front with lynch vs us with may - 2 premierships to 1

Ginnivan isn't getting free kicks because only his mum likes him.
it's absurd

Adelaide screwed us to the wall for Lever
IF he goes it would be nice to return the favour.
they really didn't

One of our players does, his name is Kozzie Pickett, similarly to Ginnivan he got a rep for lifting the shoulder and ducking and since then I don’t remember the last time he got a too high free. There were at least two times this weekend he got clobbered high much worse than Ginnivan just did for no free.
yeah, and the dog wasn't happy with my reaction to the non-free for koz either

if our players didn't get free kicks when they're clearly clobbered high like ginnivan is i would be ropeable
i know there's this perception that he 'ducks' into the tackle...but he's knee high to a grasshopper and constantly gets taken high through no real fault of his own

tigs dropping lilke flies - balta out for 4-6 with an mcl and lynch needs surgery on a hamstring tendon injury

frost's ability to run himself out of position is quite something
he's a very good reader of the play but once he gets the ball in hand he's so unpredictable

worth remembering that the crom will be looking to trade out of the pointy end of the 2024 draft as their father-son selection - tyler, son of scott, welsh - is likely considered a top selection

A strangely beautiful and poetic image.
i've always found it strange that they adopted that inxs song - i know it was about the split forced on them between afl and sanfl versions of 'port adelaide', but it's played out now with the teams being together for a long time now
once the port maggies leave the sanfl for the vfl / national reserves competition in the coming years, it really won't be applicable at all anymore

if he can do what he did in the last 45 mins of a game like that with one hand, imagine how good he'll be when he has two working mitts?

Zero sympathy for the eagles. An arrogant footy club. An extended period at the bottom might them and their supporters some humility
if you look at their history, this is what they do - compete and be there or thereabouts, win a premiership, hang around competing, bottom out... rinse / repeat
they've only been out of finals for three seasons, and presumably 2024 will be their fourth missing out in a row

It’s too late for Meth Coke and North now. Probably Hawthorn as well, the Map of Tassie will be cleaning up on young talent.
there will be a few Clubs very concerned about the futurewhen you really don't want to be poor in 2027-2031
they - and the eventual 20th team - will pick the eyes out of the draft

I’d love to try and get Tim Kelly to the club somehow.
Surely he’s sick of losing, even if he is at home.
other than reid, if there's a meth coke player i'd target to come to a third club and finish his career playing in a finals side it's elliot yeo over tim kelly
