  1. You could guess all those and still have a better than 50% chance of getting them right just based on player performance and likelihood.

    They won't have anyone to chase Freo out of the centre clearances. 😁

    Last three years: 2022: Swans won by 12 2021: Demons won by 9 2020: Didn't play them at the MCG (Swans won 67-46 at the SCG)
  4. Definitely check the speed of your internet connection, and the playback quality in the Kayo settings. You can set Kayo to SD, HD or "automatic" (which will take your internet speed into account). Kayo says you need 1.5mbps for SD and 6mbps for HD. I have no trouble streaming Kayo in HD on a 7mbps ADSL connection. I've got a Google TV (no Chromecast) I also have a 4G mobile broadband connection that is 40mbps during the daytime and a crappy 3mbps at night due to congestion. It won't work for Kayo on HD when that happens.
  5. Which is immaterial if Fremantle's contract offer to Jackson, in years and dollars, is well above what all these other players would expect. The offer is what largely determines the trade value and bargaining.
  6. We are the defending premiers. We've got a great team with still plenty of young potential. We'll be active in trading and/or drafting with good picks if Jackson leaves. But what we don't need is other club's detritus like Bruce and the once-good but now retired Ryder.
  7. Ryder is 35. He's retired from the Saints, and why would we think he could be good for us?
  8. You don't reckon Amon "would get a regular game at Melbourne"? 🤔
  9. Charlie Cameron loves him.
  10. Would have thought the MCG is very much "taxpayer funded".
  11. Cripps as captain couldn't lead his team into a finals series.
  12. I can understand teams will rise and fall, and the ladder positions will not be the same as they finished in 2021. I can understand the premiers getting a harder draw. But I can't understand teams like Geelong getting an easier one.

    If Salem is available and fit, you play him. No ifs or buts.
  14. There's five of them isn't there? 😊

    Love the way he says we want to learn about what Geelong, Richmond and Collingwood are doing well. To find out how they can "turn things around", he's not going to ask us.

    Then why post something that no one would miss? A summary would be nice, comments optional, rather than a link you can't read. I don't subscribe to the Sun on principle.

    I'd be saying "fast forward me to 2022"!

    I wish people wouldn't post paywalled links.

    Despite a premiership and being up to our eyeballs this year, it seems for some that the veil of negativity never really went away. I don't understand why, but I guess most football supporters are by nature pessimistic and can only highlight mistakes.
  20. It's an adductor, unless you're getting kidnapped.
  21. Watts was a good kick for goal.
  22. King got a strike!
  23. Brisbane should change their name to the Giraffes.
  24. Another dangerous tribunal decision that totally flies in the face of the stated aim of reducing concussion.

    Man-bun? When was the last time you watched Grundy play?
