What would be the reasons he can’t play predominately as a midfielder? He received Brownlow and coaches votes this year in games in the midfield. He has size, pace, power, defensive awareness and can kick. We need new options in the midfield and he’s the most obvious choice for mine.

Has Kozzy put in his request yet?

Had a look at that thread and…wow. They reckon after we get pick #4 from Adelaide for Oliver we’ll give them 4 & 7 and that’s the fair rate. Or Kozzie and #7. They also think Houston is worth more than when we traded for Lever and May based on the fact he’s already an AA. These are just what they think is fair, not actual whispers. Did I miss when Dan Houston became 23 year old Chris Judd?

Yep agree. Hopefully I just picked him incorrectly with the VFL group in the vids. He was actually quite clean in close last week. We need to give him time to see what he can do.

Hard to be certain from the videos, but changes looked like: In: Hunter, Tholstrup, Sparrow Out: Windsor, Billings, Laurie

Does anyone know how many goals they got over the back? It must’ve been a record. I genuinely want to understand the reason why but assume no one will ask in the presser. Having 0 clearances in a quarter is also surely a record.

Yeh I wonder if they mean when he plays forward? He’s clearly played more than 7 games since R10 2023.

That is not correct

We should absolutely enquire about Chol. He kicked 44 goals last year and is a solid backup ruck. Ideal role player we need.

Can anyone give an example of another team in history that loses the way we do? Sure, you can lose the odd game due to poor kicking, but to dominate games and lose them so often isn’t something I’ve seen before. We were set this year too. Fit, match hardened, on our home ground…and we crumbled under pressure.

Gee how disappointing is that. He absolutely deserved weeks. There’s no point throwing the toys out of the cot as a club. The players role is to play 4 quarters Friday, our role as fans is to turn up and be louder than we’ve ever been. Control what we can control.

Need to wait for official confirmation McKay is in concussion protocols. I’m sensing a Port style ‘mistake’ on the cards…

Are you certain? I’ve only ever heard his first injury described as a mid foot sprain. Lisfranc is 12 months. Which is the Mitch Clark injury.

Plenty of narrative going around that 2 rucks don’t work. How many rucks did we play in 2021?

Which of the below options do people think Chris Fagan would prefer: 1. Kossie plays for Melbourne this week 2. Kossie plays for Casey this week
