I still think he has something to offer us. Maybe not for a lot longer... but you can't 'train' talent into a player. That is skill on another level. Maybe 5% of current lists have that sort of craft. I like Milky on the field....if even for just a qtr.

In financial parlance they are at pains to emphasise past performance does not equate to the future. It's said with good reason. At Melbourne, and as far as im fussed that's what ill base my opinion on, he's hardly put a foot wrong. Seems to have done all askedof him and appears to have bought into 'our ways' I'm not privy to the Role he was asked to di ( as opposed ourpossible ideal he set the world on fire ) . I saw him play/attempt a very similar effort as Tmac provides....but arguably not as well , this time around. He might as BBO suggests do better with another outting. That might provide a better guide. He has a distinct advantage, or had, over Tmac and BBB atm. He's fit. That said if his wrist is crook then he may be dead unlucky. In the end i just want players who do well. Couldn't care less who... matters not. Scoreboards dont care who ticks them over.

Hobart Dishwashers?

I'm going to be that person who thinks we should just be the Melbourne Football Club. I'm not a fan of what i brand tokenisms. Plenty of opportunity to embrace this that and the other. But as the MFC. Each to their own. It will no doubt not sit with some. That's fine.

To be ...well....dull....lol... The Street Names often described the Oval's home , historically. Arden St, Linton St come to mind.. Others ...just the name of a Park. Some would suggest we ourselves live out of a Paddock... some, myself included find that hard to argue 🤣🤣

🤔🤔 I learned a word today... 🤣🤣

You really have a thing for the Cardboard of late eh Red. Collecting those silver cushions for the Brougham ??

Problem with that is AFL ideally want 2 teams in more populous States .

The odd thing is.... youre kinda right. Tis a bit Hatfields and McCoys isnt it. Not sure theres the money , or even the ability for the two to survive, but most certainly the division of passion. It would/ will irk some in northern Tassie to support a team that may come tobe seen as that "Hobart" mob.

Which in turn was named after the mythical devil lol ( edit : just saw your post 31 ... ;) )

🤔🤔You'd have to think so ..... 🤣🤣

I think it's entirely possible that a team(s) could exist ( or be brought in ) purely to protect the back door. I.e.. to thwart the NRL. Many forget the AFL is a business... it has competition. Always reminds me of supermarkets. Sometimes one opens purely to stop the other

Divide and Conquer 😉

AI is VERY scary. Some idiots think AI can be 'contained' Muwahahaha

Its an idea. Not one i favour. I can see the attraction of it. Just dont see it as overly workable. Yes the NT loves footy... i get all that. Are we looking to do this as some sort of social equaliser...or because its truly workable. I cant see the weather being agreeably participant. It's ok... just me.

Are you familiar with Rorshach ???

In keeping with our 'kind' ....perhaps we should carry flaming tridents ??

Tell me how it's really changed.in the last 30 years ? Good forwards always corralled the ball. Good forwards always tried to keep it forward. The delivery of good teams has always been GOOD. You really going to try to argue we have a good system ?? Fair enough. We differ I think in the main we're [censored] at it. We rely on fwd pressure.. thats not clever.

To offer a different view...( i know ...lol ) Harking back ...many decades... i played in the fwd line... not the arc...as none then...lol... but the essence of forward craft hasn't really changed... really..it hasnt... For mine...its about delivery....always... Just dont bomb it in... smart teams arrange for the ball to GET to the fwds... dumb teams bomb and createa lotto event. We have sufficient players to kick goals... i wish theyd worry more about the style/method of delivery. It wont then require this weekly cringe of... who.

Get off the casks.. 🤔🤔🤔🤔 How's the Malibu partying going ? Asking for a friend ( yes i have one... )

No

Think you'll find one is the cause of the other. Not mutually independent. Same for Tommy Occam's Razor

You lost me at Kane Cornes Probably lost most ppl. Though Kozzie says Hi

So Gill the Dill is superceded by Andrew the Dill.. Game in good hands.... Boyz club... bunch of Dills

He can't usurp concussion rules 🥴
