Draft or Recruit
First round : take to draft, or split and take one of these to draft and other for Whitney (Houston). Pick up f/s (YZE) and Mentha (NGA) as late picks/ rookies. Use pick for Nibbler to add to 2nd round and move up for another first rounder? Use other picks to take best available. Move first 2025 pick back to multiple second round picks and /or first round this year +second next year (Kalani White and another NGA prospect coming through). needs: Midfield , high quality disposals and foot speed , Ruck backup, Key pos forward.

Farewell Alex Neal-Bullen
When he kicked his goal on Saturday night, the screen had his DE at 53%. He is an elite runner, and a great team man. If we can replace him with elite disposal and decision making, we may be better off in the long term. He goes as a premiership hero. He goes with my best wishes and a hope we can get an OK retrurn in the trade period.

How’s it go down? tom maggot “How are you feeling about the demons season?” CP5: “It wasn’t that great” TM “so you’re not happy with it” CP5 ‘no” TM “how is it with goody” CP5 “he’s a great bloke” TM “OK, So do miss the chance to win a flag this year” CP5 “of course, its why we are here” TM “what do you reckon of those teams on it?” CP5 “wish it was us” turns into I this [censored] story……..

Dan Houston
If it was pick 16-18 then… maybe pick 6 should be better than Houston in this draft. go to the draft, offer a second rounder at best. nga and the f/s pickups later.

TRAINING: Friday 9th August 2024
Thanks @WalkingCivilWar, champion effort as usual. Notes: Ben Brown in ‘trainers blues’ rather than team reds? I understand his knee must be problematic, but is he likely to be around the club in a different capacity next year? he seems like a ripping bloke, and we could do worse. Ollie Sestan’s bum looks too close to the ground. Great to see CP5 not getting too excited.

Where's Kentfield at?
Too early to know. Not brought in for immediate impact, so suspect has time to do a preseason and show that he can deliver what he showed at WAFL. A big lad that might yet prove many here wrong….

Goodwin is the MAN!
I think Goody needs to change his assistants - time to freshen up the team to take us back to the top…

PODCAST: Rd 21 vs Western Bulldogs
Looking for this to be a ‘bounce’ year.. Hit the draft and get what we can. 1. Max talks about ‘pride in the jumper’ - do you think this is enough to motivate the boys to win the next 3? 2. Assistant coaches - are there the problem? Reading between the lines of Goody’s presser, it seems that the coaching setup is not working. Is it time for mcQualter to walk the plank?

CASEY: Rd 19 vs Footscray
The kid is barely in the door. Of course he would get a full off season to see where he sits. This is just getting used to your team mates ands settling in time. He is not a unicorn, he is a young tall that cost the club very little. Give him space and see what happens,,,,

CASEY: Rd 19 vs Footscray
There is a real lack of second efforts on the chasing. Break the first tackle and stroll away by the dogs

What was your excuse?
Too easy Purple. How about creating some content of value? What atrocious drivel. So we get kicked when we are the home and the away team. How many gws people turned up last week? Under 250, id reckon. There is your true story, the expansion teams are an absolute FAIL.

PODCAST: Rd 20 vs GWS
What I liked: the first quarter the comeback effort we are still in it with the future entirely in our hands What I disliked 2.5 quarters of poor 2 way running and efforts the weather (it was Arctic there!) 0-8 centre clearances the umpiring Losing We have lost out on playing finals by 0.5% one year not long ago. results are all over the place, and we are still in it. We are not our old ruthless selves and cant string 4 quarters together. What do we need to do to turn this ship around? Can we do it this year or will we simply not be good enough?

What was your excuse?
No excuses, I was there. I was wearing 5 layers (5!) and it was still flipping cold. At 4 pm it was [censored] down. I don’t begrudge anyone who did not show up, it was god awful out there. [censored] scheduling by the AFL - late July night at MCG between us and an interstate team ( who had about 30 people in their cheer squad) - 16 k, well done.
