Book it in Danno... and GC x 2 😉

None so blind as will not see ..

Nice to see some have eyes 😉

Id rate it a B The cards were stacked.. A was never attainable... but imo we haven't done too bad. Yes, confronting for many.... but step back and look at it coldly... it could have been a lot worse... and with draft to come... Still more work to be done.

He's playing clever clogs... You dont want to alert the competition to your plan... they'll beat you to it 😉

Asked elsewhere but probably better here. My thinking all along that should we end up with 7&8; that that was never the focus. We've a history of "shopping" picks. My thoughts go to... if the ready-made didn’t eventuate ( and didn’t ) what was/is the secondary target. I'm thinking that our thinking is a player much closer the pointy end. So who would we be looking at at 2 or 3 ??

Strangely I agree... with both your comment AND the one you referenced. Viva Dland

Well... it's been proffered for quite a while that this Club knows Jack !!

So WHO actually IS worth looking at at 2 or 3 ??

Folk are often mis-pidgeon holed here

If you understand the cause...then you'll get they already have.

I truly dont understand the pessimism or obscurity offered up with all those that say ... but the picks are really.. The picks are what they are. Many of the early 'gets' were NEVER gettable. Scrub those players and the rest is what it is. It's the same for most clubs. So pick 7 is still effectively pick 7 for what is pickable

For mine ..yes

Aged well Jack.... what a Steele

What ever damage was done to the fabric that cocooned the love-tribe causing the fractures and player grievances ; this was done prior to the new leadership at the club. They're just left to mop up the mess and start to put things back together. Not everything was salvageable indeed like a rose bush the pruning needed to be serious. Yes its a damn shame much of this has had to play out but imho players carry the same responsibility as does stewardship. In life you have to realise it's your life, guard and guide it well. Melbourne can do better and hopefully its underway.

Might well be a bit to this. Doesn't actually disqualify anything to date... but it might have been a ploy. ( just maybe )

Food for thought. Speed in the game is not always, nor limited to the 'speed' of players per se. It can also be everything about players working in unison and making good decisions. Essentially the ball moves because of good decisions ... it invariably goes flying past you the opposite direction when you make poor ones. If King thinks he (JS) can work in what he envisages the 'new' game to be.. well, at this stage what else really do we need to understand. It's a 👍 from me.... ( because I'm sure the FD waits for ppl like me to approve ...😉 )

🤔 I reckon we always were 🙄😉

And in truth that IS the best way of looking at it ( imho )

Markets are markets. People often fall for the trap of mistaking a 'perceived' value for 'actual' value. Such things can be a distasteful realisation for many when their pockets get hit for six. This is not about football ability but very much about causes and effects. Many seemingly wanting to acuse the club of hitting the 'bang' button. The more probable reality is for whatever reasons Clarry failed to observe the warning signs . Though it takes two to tango only one leads and Oliver has been leading us a merry dance. The band's had enough. Yesterday's top 40 hit is now in the bargain bin, a bit scratched and warped. We all will move on. As he will.
