Freddie Clutterbuck
Missed the chance at having an A+ name on the list. Instead we got Leigh Williams and next thing the poor bloke was in a coma.

Jamie Elliott
Was happy to get him for free but would have been on the countdown to the inevitable pre-season injury.

Keith “Bluey” Truscott Trophy 2019
Is there a full list of the votes? I find it NQR that the club would only post the top 20 on the website. I'm sure Kade Chandler won't slash his wrists when he's shown finishing 37th.

2019 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May
The first quarter against Collingwood (second game) was top shelf. If he stays fit and plays that next year we'll get good value.

Farewell Sam Frost
The tour that Hawthorn claimed didn't happen must have been a raging success.

The calumny of the AFL's priority pick policy
If we improve enough in 2020 we can get shafted by next year's priority pick too.

No [censored] policy
Does anyone seriously think Martin would be the player he is today if we'd drafted him? He'd have ODed on sleeping pills with Daniel Connors then rammed a chopstick through somebody's head after being revived. Meanwhile, have we ever drafted somebody post-jail? I know Jurrah and Fabian Francis landed there after playing for us, and I'm told Robert Walters did too but not sure for what, but trying to think of somebody we got after they'd been in the clink.

Premiership Window: Open or Closed?
Open but only in an even season. More likely we'll get good just in time for a Hawthorn '88 or Essendon '00.

The Christopher Woods Thread
What about the Adelaide bloke called 'Anzac' - that name will get over huge if he makes their list.

Useless Demons Stats
Would help identify the regulars who shouldn't be playing.

Useless Demons Stats
Brayshaw's third place is the most overrated stat around. We mock Brownlow votes for being ridiculously slanted to midfielders and know full well he wasn't in the top 30 players in the league last year let alone top three but still get caught up in comparing his seasons like there's something new to be learnt. We all know he was ordinary this year, don't need umpires to tell me.

The calumny of the AFL's priority pick policy
Do we get our priority pick for 2013 at the same time?

Good name. Silly name.- I’ve watched 5 decades of failure!
The good news you don't have to wait long for a sixth.- Irish recruits
About time we had another bash at an Irishman but I would like Ronan Devereux just for his charismatic name.- Preuss to Work on Forward Craft
And I bet you first bounce Round 1, 2020 he's lining up as first ruck for Casey not as a forward. If we're going to have a Reserves team it needs to be used for development, not to try and win an increasingly meaningless cup.- Darwin game dumped
The AFL doesn't give a fat rat's clacker about disadvantage.- Darwin game dumped
No way they're going to have the Suns lose a home derby, that would be one of the few games they'd be able to drum up interest in.- Darwin game dumped
And the pokies money. And the memberships going south again. Plenty of shortfall only partially offset by Anzac/QB home games next year.- Post Season Members Forum
I don't even want to punch on about this season, there's no point. If we're pox next year when everyone started the season fit and there are no excuses then bring the chaos.- Post Season Members Forum
That was the great night where my question about player mental health after 2011 and half of 2012 was being addressed and he said they didn't need a psychologist because any player who felt upset could talk to a coach (!!!?!). I'm still upset at not asking supplementary questions to argue how stupid his point was.- Post Season Members Forum
I went to the post-186 AGM and the mid-2012 Members Information Session with Neeld and both times the audience (myself included) squibbed the opportunity to verbally punch on. I'm not nearly as upset about this season as many of the people on here but tempted to go just to see if we can finally get a stand-up argument between a fan and a club official.- Post Season Members Forum
So the AGM is separate? Why wouldn't you just do them at the same time, the anguished questions from the floor (that never turn into the punch up we all want) are the only thing worth going to the AGM for.- Farewell Sam Frost
Would be interested in the rankings shown as a percentage of contests. Might not be any better considering we were only (?) 10th worst in the comp at conceding inside 50s but would still give a better indication. - Caleb Serong (Drafted by Fremantle)
