Congratulations Garry Lyon - Inducted into AFL Hall of Fame.
Apples and Oranges to a degree. Neither got to be where they could have/ should have been. Both absolute die hard Dees. You're never in doubt that either would leave anything on the field. Oh to have one ir both today. Always remember seeing this tall skinny lad walking out the back of the Toorak News Agency in his Melb blazer. ( can't remember who was with him ) then seeing him play a few days later. Thought... yeah, he might go OK this guy. Absolute legend. ( the hamburger on the wall... classic 😆🤣 ) Well done Garry. Wonder if Shaun said hello 👋

PREGAME: Rd 14 vs Port Adelaide
I used to think.he played with quite a bit of flare as well as dare. Seems to have gone from his game. Shame

PREGAME: Rd 14 vs Port Adelaide
Now you can just see a few spitting their coffee on this but it's an interesting ( to me ) posit. If you're a realist , and that's a possible out for many a football supporter ( because they're not ) , then sometimes you need to take a step back and look at thing with a broader perspective. I remember an earlier game against the bloods . He was very good in a very raw way but certainly announced he was here and might do much. A few seasons later.. hmm. His trajectory has taken a dive. The idea he would , or could be of some value in a Jackson deal provokes thought. They are not like for like but which would you prefer playing in Red and Blue ? I know who I'd take. It's always about bettering the list.

I think May was expecting the pass. Possibly the root of his angst ?

Funny.... I expect everyone on a cricket team to be able to bat

Gawns idea might have had some merit.... but honestly who the [censored] was he kicking it to. He made an almost identical [censored] up earlier in the game further afield. He's not that flash at weighting kicks

Not thinking he's alone on that

Harrison Petty
Keep in mind Tmac is a better defender than Petty. So if Petty isn't of much use up front then he ought stand at the back of the queue 🙄

Forward line fix?
Milkshake... a gem. But hesnot a kpf. Fritta... turns up when he likes. To my minds eye doesn't quite get it. Play like 21 gf .. marvellous. He's playing off his own coattails imho. Can't be relied upon. Jvr .. two trick pony.. a better ruck than forward. Hardly a safer pair of hands kicking for goal than Jack Watts... for all his faults.. still put him or a clone in our fwd line in a heartbeat ..

Forward line fix?
He wasn't perfect... far from it. But who do we have today ?? Going swimmingly huh.
-
Forward line fix?
Really ?? Watts is much maligned. Right now I'd take a Watts in a heart beat. Selfless, knows forward craft , runs all day , leaves nothing out there. Knows where the sticks are. Who's on our list that's a better forward..at the moment ?? This is the type of player we need to look around other clubs and lure.

Max and May after the siren
It was done and dusted 5 secs after May finished whatever it was that he did say. It was said, it was heard...more than likely understood... and that was that.

Forward line fix?
I wouldn't mind a clone of #4 on the list. Our scoreboards might look a lot better.

Max and May after the siren
I think youll find he does. That's not to say he doesn't stuff up.. but he's pretty dirty on himself when he does. Just my obs

POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood
If that's his only purpose then reason suggests the rest of his time on the ground is a waste. If he's a fwd pinch hitting as a ruck... he's a bust. That's the definition of a list clogger surely.

Just an example of last night's rubbish news‘That’s extraordinary’: Go home AFL, you’re drunkFootball commentators are up in arms over a series of controversial moments during Collingwood’s win over the Demons at the MCG on Monday. https://www.news.com.au/sport/afl/thats-extraordinary-go-home-afl-youre-drunk/news-story/1b1b767707f18f9abd2cbcddf302442a
