Salems Lot

Sydney has our first round pick this year I reckon

If only we stuffed up like that all the time, we would have a few more flags! 😉

Fair enough but some of this is based on hindsight. Not sure Dunstan would have been the difference based on exposed form earlier in the year Bowey would definitely have been worth a try but I wonder if something is going on behind the scenes that we are not aware of based on his sudden departure from the ones earlier in the year - he looked good in the VFL Prelim. Spargo has a fantastic footy brain and does an awful lot of stuff that we don't see Macca not yet fit (don't forget how little he did in the GF last year) who also said at a recent club function that JVR is going to be special but is miles off tank wise, this would suggest that he would not have helped the fade out.

Specifically which players that were running around for Casey yesterday would have made a difference? Assessing the available playing list they are either developing youngsters or excellent mature age VFL players. Personally I think we suffered from too many injuries to too many key players when it counted.

Interesting outs but not a bad FF line

Started it last night! so far, so good

Who films themselves watching the footy?

Fixed it for you

Hope he plays and we [censored] them all the same

Might be wrong but I gave a feeling we will see 26 out and 21 in this week.

Love Gus and always thought he would stay. A player does not immerse themselves in a club the way he has and just walk away for cash. I find the whole narrative about the money he has left on the table a bit of a furphy. He has not signed on for nothing, he will still be incredibly well paid for a 26 year old and because he is a smart guy I am sure he sees a bright future for himself after the boots have been hung up.

Back in the day we were accused of tanking for doing this...or am I missing something? https://www.afl.com.au/news/803160/eagles-to-try-experimental-roles-midfielder-likely-to-face-saints

Any word on Rick Lever? He looked seriously ginger at the end of the game

It is a Jodan De No-ey for me

Great thread!!

He was in Adelaide on the weekend; can confirm he is a big unit

First game outside of Victoria and I have to say it was a ripper to watch. Mens Department are immense, #3 & 17 are as important as #1, 35 & 8 and we bumped into Harry P on the way home from dinner still in his gear and looking very happy. There is a different feel when travelling as our hotel was right next to the team's and we kept bumping into the players out and about. Walking distance to the ground was cream on the cake Great result in enemy territory but as soon as the game was over the locals went straight back to their hospitable selves. Great fun and go Dees (Definitely won't be waiting 59years for my next interstate game)

Article says $7m

see my previous post Dusty took forever to sign on

Dusty was gone until he wasn't

At this rate, Scott will be blaming illness again

Stewart straight to tribunal

Can this thread be merged with the Jessie Hogan thread. It would reach the Sun (and back!!)

As a 59 year old, I applaud it!! ;)

Lol, I totally agree about this. I thought the way Chris Scott came out after the Prelim and immediately blamed illness for their performance was deplorable and yet another reason to really not like the guy or his team.
