On ESPN in 2022, Essendon got an A grade for Elijah Tsatas (16 games), Lewis Hayes ( 1 game, ACL), Alwyn Davey Jnr (delisted) and Jayden Davey (delisted). Melbourne got an E for Matthew Jefferson and Jed Adams.

How you can realistically rate a draft until the draftees have played 50-100 games, or alternatively been delisted, is beyond me.

He may be, or he may not. How about we give him a go to see what he can do in 2026 and not pre-judge him as inferior to anyone.

No. But Jaguar only sold 743 cars in Australia last year, and like all models they are imported. They employ fewer than 70 people at their headquarters in Malvern.

They've got over 3500 employees, how big do you want?

There's MFCSS, now there's even anticipatory MFCSS!

And the difference is?

I think someone like Aimee Mackin would have been good too.

Most of his recipes are built around chicken.

Yep, it's only 853 km from Sydney to the Gold Coast. Next door really.

Oliver's gone to GWS. Ugle-Hagan has gone to the Gold Coast, to play with Petracca.

Records are made to be broken, are they not?

A novel approach to coaching.

Quaynor definitely doesn't deserve to be booed. However, Collingwood supporters have obviously forgotten the relentless booing that helped drive Adam Goodes from the game for pointing out a racist slur from a Collingwood supporter.

Any reason to whinge, moan and sink the boots into your own team. Our season is over, give it a break.

It would take me three hours by public transport to get to Casey from where I live. Then another three hours back. I can get to a city venue in less than half that time.

What's with the superfluous "it"?

Confucius say "If team can't stop kicking behinds, behinds will get kicked".

We'd have to start calling half-time "intermission".

I think you're projecting. He could usher in a new era.

Obviously the team's feng shui is also out of alignment and their chakras need tuning. Kade needs to practice some "tai chandler" during training.

Can't they throw in Buckley for the quadrella?

You all need to stop reading every bit of football media. They just drag up the same old names for clicks and I suspect most of it is speculative, especially the stuff on X (formerly Twitter). I'll wait for when the new coach is appointed, whoever it is.

Next ones must be McVee to Fremantle and Petracca to GWS then. Who's off to the Suns and Hawthorn?

Yes, but that was their second-largest loss this year (Suns by 87). Collingwood only beat them at Marvel by 29, Brisbane won by 19 in Brisbane. Those teams must be terrible.
