2024 AFL Grand Final
Absolutely Oscar McInErnery's energy in the medal presentation. Pure goofy, loving joy. Suspect that has been a big part of keeping the team upbeat during some rough early times.

2024 AFL Grand Final
I've been watching the second half and getting that unnerving sense that this Brisbane side is player-by-player that little bit bigger and stronger than their opponents all over the ground. Hopefully that's just a reflection of Sydney's wilting performance because with even more goid F-S prospects coming and ongoing academy benefits, their list has plenty of renewal coming.

2024 AFL Grand Final
I've been working so only looking at stats now. How is it even possible to have fewer supercoach points than disposals?

Nathan Bassett to Dees as Forwards Coach?
I thought Fred Basset was about the same height as Caleb Daniel (at the shoulder, to be fair).

Nathan Bassett to Dees as Forwards Coach?
'Dropped of a cliff' is a pretty remarkable way to describe consecutive 16 win seasons with 125+ percentage. Our midfield only began to struggle in mid 2023 when we lost Oliver. Even then it was still highly capable. This stuff gets so tiresome.

Ahhh, PETA, the second most accurate episode of South Park.

Nathan Bassett to Dees as Forwards Coach?
I really rate Basset and would be thrilled if we added him to our coaching panel. The kind of calibre of assistant coach with the credentials to have been pursued by the Eagles and the wisdom to turn them down 🤣

I was getting ready to make a joke about quantity over quality but it isn't as funny when it is shown to be true.

How Chris Scott differs from other AFL coaches
Yep, if you can earn 300k+ and live in some of Australia's lushest countryside near beaches and superb national parks while also still being conveniently close to both a local good-sized city, numerous picturesque towns, and to Melbourne, you'll take it.

2024 Phantom Drafts
Fair call, given a 20 touch Spargo is Brent Harvey. I think it is underestimated how much difference Spargo in form made to our performance. Touch wood for a rejuvenated Spargonaut in 2025.

How Chris Scott differs from other AFL coaches
All this talk of how easy it was for Goodwin to take the dozen good players he inherited from Roos to a premiership just goes to show how hard it must have been for Scott in 2011, who had to overcome the deficiencies of both Allen Christensen AND Trent West not already being premiership players. After the inherited premiership, Chris Scott from 2012-2019 managed 4 wins from 15 finals. I can only assume everyone vigorously pleasuring themselves about Scott's greatness is ready to give Goodwin the same run on the understanding that he'll snag us another flag in 2032?

Five lost preliminary finals must be a point of difference. No, wait, six. Even Ken Hinkley would be impressed.

Brisbane 2024 Round 1 Pick
Not paying attention to Geelong team selection is a credit to your reputation.

Brisbane 2024 Round 1 Pick
I want it because I feel really good about this draft (as always in septmember), but I also want De Koning. Future picks would be needed to make De Koning happen, I suspect. And given that we'll be wanting some 'burnables' to acquire White (touch wood) some smart future pick trading might also give us a head start on getting 2025 trade/draft organised.

For those who underrate our 2021 premiership…
Most dominant finals series in the history of the game and the most dominant 50 minutes of grand final football in the history of the game. No matter what way you look at it, you can't tell me the horse is a camel.

The Double De Koning play?
Definitely bring him over ASAP so he can play forward and get injured. But seriously, with both Turner and Petty being forward at the moment, Tomlinson going, and May and McDonald boldy attacking the twilight, an additional young defender must be a priority. At 204cm Sam De Koning also gives us height that our defence has not had much of even at its peak. Does Adelaide have anything Geelong want? Feel like a Nibbler to De Koning conversion could be a healthy outcome.

Matt Owies
To reiterate - the reason he scores so many of the Blues' goals is because he is nice and fresh from not doing two-way running while his teammates are getting worn out trying to cover the hole he left. Blues fans I know are basically adamant that the team will be better off without him.
