The Lobster Effect

What's Bassett's role at the club/which players does he look after?

Wow, only 6 marks all season for JVR!?

Why isn't JVR making any progress? Seems to have trouble with clunking marks.

Surely the expectations would have been finals? I know we had a shocker last year but we still won 11 matches and were getting Trac back, plus a fit Oliver and 2 high draft picks.

Ok so bring on the Suns 25 finals campaign. Opposite of the Freo deathride...

Do we only have a list spot at the MSD if someone gets moved to the long term injury list or retires?

What about if he recommends Bell as CEO, Sayers as President, Dodoro as recruiting manager, himself as Coach and Dusty as Mad Monday Facilitator?

He would be hard to replace in the forward line, that's for sure

Hopefully you can still grow at 24 as 193cm is a pretty small ruck. Josh Smillie as a midfielder is taller

Who are they out of curiosity?

Any interest in Tauru or is a gun midfielder much more of a priority? (Our interest might be irrelevant anyway with North maybe doing a trade with the Crows to slide down to pick 4 to get him)

Google the company Epoch Systems

Beer Wine Spirits?

Dees come off as looking very indecisive the last few days...

But they're also helped by the fact that houses cost less in Geelong/surf coast so the players are ok will bring paid slightly less. Let alone the under the table deals...

Rhys Stanley's farm?

Yeah the media doesn't mention it, we can claim him!

GWS also went bluddy close to defeating both recently...

Brisbane is the Fourth team in VFL/AFL history to start 0-3 and make the Grand final Carlton (1945) North Melbourne (1976) North Melbourne (1977) Brisbane Lions (2024)

Yeah that sounds about right: 2025 - funding sorted 2026-27 - design and engagement 2030 - built!!!??

Yeah it was dumb of him to take the advantage when Hogan would have had a shot from the goal square. But I have seen umpires call it back if it doesn't turn into an advantage?

Kicked 30.9 from 19 games this year. It's a yes from me, can't think of a negative* * Except for some lousy tatts

I'm with you, hate the Hawks. Arrogant supporters.

Risk is an over-ager... I take it he's a late developer?
