  1. Love to know what you are referencing here. If it’s not appropriate to write here, love a DM about it. I still feel very in the dark on the whole Clarrie saga
  2. Has anyone bothered to go past the paywall and get the full article though? Ralph: Kozzie’s Dockers texts could mean everything — or nothing sounds like a clickbait beat up with a misleading headline
  3. I’m going to put ‘obviously’ up for consideration as well, more specifically within the footy community however. I’m not sure if it’s just another classic filler word used to give people more time to think or if it’s supposed to convey modesty but it’s overuse KILLS me. It’s not obvious, that’s why we asked the question
  4. Remember reading a decent article on Baldi being back in the Casey team and out to prove himself, always thought he had something about him so don’t be surprised if he makes solid progress this year as well
  5. I highly doubt the penny is going to drop WCW
  6. Copy that! Very much appreciate it
  7. Complete buffoon when it comes to these things but we lost 8 players and only gained 6…. So if we only have one spot left I’m utterly confused
  8. Wow, those kids are just never going to get over the ‘saga’ are they….
  9. Have a look at A. McGraths stats and you will have a better understanding of what Sparrow brings to the team, week in week out. Honestly you should probably have someone explain how AFL works at some stage
  10. Disco is talented as just has it upstairs, natural footballer with obvious incredible drive and desire to get better. Only a matter of time before he really explodes, the abberation a few weeks doesn’t even count for me, lot of luck involved. But he works incredibly hard and has pure basic football smarts. I’d be playing him every week until it suddenly clicks because if we do, by the end of the year he will be and absolute ripper. But then again, you all already knew that, anyone that picket pots regularly becomes a great player
  11. Come on, It’s ridiculously obvious. Just swap Petty and Tmac back to where they were when we won a mother loving premiership
  12. My man Dan Turner!!!! Never would have thought he would be the leading goal kicker in an AFL match 😂 His old man and mine quite good friends
  13. And very proud of my man Dan Turner, to kick his first goal with blood streaming down his face made me a proud NE Victorian
  14. Relax people, like a cat swatting a mouse. Yes the skill errors are weird but it’s actually well in control. Big credit to Howes for holding Bolton for so long, got off the leash for a hot minute there but a 3rd quarter onslaught coming
  15. Jefferson is extremely clean below his knees and has some toe
  16. Bad Hammy for Blizcavs but still a Geelong lead is the best we can hope for
  17. Oh binman…… laconic /ləˈkɒnɪk/ adjective (of a person, speech, or style of writing) using very few words.
  18. Personally hope they do attempt to target JvR. I think the kid quite loves the physicality, it would fire him up and I’ve got all confidence he can handle himself and take it well. Only risk would be him giving away a free retaliating
  19. Also still have one ticket still available, m15, row h if anyone needs
  20. Oh boy, am I going to be in trouble. The missus and I have already booked accomodation and flights (we live in Sydney) and now I have a ticket and she doesn’t. That’s going to be popular……. Complete long shot, not expecting a miracle, surely everyone wanting tickets, but if anyone wants to sell their ticket or just help a Dees tragic out it would be unbelievably appreciated. I’ve been a reserved seat member for years and years despite hardly ever managing to see a game, purely for the grand final guarantee (which like many of us eventually couldn’t use although my niece in WA was extremely grateful for it as she used to date Chugger Spargo) so I’d even be happy to offer up my seat for the vast majority of games for anyone that was able to help? As I said i see two games live a year IF I’m lucky (I run pubs so weekends away are rare) so I’d much rather a Dees fan get to use it for their friends and family than have it go to waste. Anyway, essay over, not expecting a miracle but needed to at least put it out there *Update* I believe a magnificent member has 2 tickets for us, which will mean my reserve ticket would be available and obviously I would happily pay that forward to anyone needing one so feel free to message
  21. Bowey as a junior had excellent goal sense, love to see his pace and underrated aerial sense as a high half forward, if only as a rotational swing once in a while. Salem sadly is a mile off match fitness and he is someone that needs a big block of fitness regime before he really hits his straps so realistically he isn’t ready for proper midfield until next season. But I see the logic, just tempering the realistic nature of such a suggestion. Spargs is genuinely one of our most influential players and as much as it frustrates that he doesn’t accumulate as much he just doesn’t have the tank for the Harvey style role, as much as he has the ability for it. My niece dated him in high school, so I know the area he is from and the mind set of that area, he won’t leave a stone unturned as he is a genuinely humble and dedicated kid, just wish someone would strap him to Clarry for a bit. He was fatter and more unfit than any top 5 pick ever in my opinion, but got taught the right things, fixed his mindset (I personally like to think someone like Gawn would be such a great role model for this and probably was) and got himself cherry ripe for maximum output. Then we could see what ‘Chugger’ Spargo was really about
  22. Slightly off topic, but given Fredericks ability I’m still amazed no one gave his brother a lifeline. I know it happens but damn….
  23. Definitely not advocating gambling, it’s a blight on our society when left unchecked, but as I really agree with you on BBs potential this year I checked a few multi odds. Dees to win the Premiership into Ben snagging the Coleman pays $629. So I whacked a crazy $20 on just for schnitz and giggs. I anyone hears a squeal like a 14yr old girl as the siren goes on GF day, it may be because I’ve just won $12,500 😂😂
  24. But how the hell is McCluggage not there?
  25. I’ve also realised why we often hear that Baker is racking up the disposals. 3 times in that first quarter I heard the commentators call Oskars name when it was clearly other players. A clever snap from Laurie was attributed to Baker then a free kick in the back half moments later. Not sure who actually got the free kick but it was a small black haired player (possibly McPhee) but all the same I found it pretty frustrating. When I’m doubt, just say Baker. I’m sure Majak will clunk one eventually with the commentators praising Oskars strength 🤪
