I reckon we've managed Oliver superbly. This midfield. Seriously. So exciting.

My film was playing at MIFF today, so I arrived halfway through the 3rd. I lost my voice. That was [censored] brilliant.

So Clarkson just used inexperience as an excuse for their loss today. The little person scrambling for excuses.

The coach lives and dies by the recruiting and list building of his team. But I agree to an extent. Buckley should go first. He's rubbish. But Hardwick should have gone two years ago.

That was a joke of a decision. The mormon is a brilliant player and should have got the free there, instead they get an incredibly soft one that turns into a goal.

... not be entirely surprised, but bloody excited.

Gotta say, still can't see Richmond winning this. Aren't Collingwood pathetic though? They're a season and a bit ahead of us experience wise and look very ordinary when the big American doesn't get near it.

Yep, exactly my thinking.

Come on, Richmond, you flogs!

He was very effective last week, but he just doesn't have the tools to be a consistently good AFL player for mine.

Lol, I can just imagine you ogling his 19 year old body. "Put on a bit of muscle, Sammy?"

Haha. You're a ridiculous poster, HH. I love it.

It might be down to the backs gelling more, but I'd argue it's the pace of Sam Frost and Jayden Hunt. We close down space quicker with these guys in the team.

Add Salem and that's truly exciting. Only three fringers in that lot and three of them are on the bench and I don't mean Gus.

Except when people mistake what you've said, as was the case with me a couple of weeks ago and some toff MFC 'supporter' with his seat cushion.

When have you said that lol?

The arrogance from that club and its supporters really is unsurpassed. A couple of my mates are Essendon supporters and to talk footy with them is absolutely painful and pointless. As soon as you talk footy, all of a sudden they start to exude arrogance.

Are we serious here? I hope GNF is right about Jesse, but to be honest I couldn't give a toss whether most of what he posts comes to fruition. It's just a bit of fun. Yeah, he's probably joining quite a few of the dots himself and I'd agree with PD that the trade whispers are delivered in an attention-seeking way, but I love a rumour or two. Particularly when they're always weighted in an extremely positive direction for the MFC. So some of the posters who feel the need to beat on GNF or even beat on those that enjoy his posts, just chill the [censored] out a bit. Oh and the way this thread has tangentially escalated, it might pay to start that trading board up slightly earlier than was planned.

You watch. Have a feeling this is going to be a big off season for once. We'll have all our best players signed up and we'll land that big fish we've been talking about for two years. That'll happen. As will Hogan's re-signing, but Hogan also said he was ready to sign last year and then that he was waiting for the CBA. So this really hasn't come much further, just an educated guess.

Agreed. Just that there's still some water to flow under the bridge, but that it's more than likely he'll stay. So if he's told the club he's re-signing it's unlikely he'll request a trade. We're not actually that much further along than we were before GNF's post.

I still don't know what you're talking about, Tone.

I thought he did an ordinary job here and I couldn't work out why Richmond poached him and were so excited about it. He's an ordinary recruiter. His track record speaks for itself.

Eh?

Hoping they can find that balance with a little more maturity.

People have just taken it as fact that his knee is stuffed because he's having surgery on it. I get that there's a risk, but people aren't talking about Petracca in the same light.
