The lounge will see a change of name if we sign him.

Nothing can make you feel old quite like a draftee who was born in 1997.

Not sure what your're alluding to, but he could not have handled himself any better on the Sunday Footy Show. Well rounded, confident and humble. Stumbles over his words occasionally but who cares? He'll get better at that. He's a very impressive young fella. Exactly the type you'd want representing your club in the public eye. Let's not forget that Taylor Walker is a captain and thought to be leading the club brilliantly. If he's considered acceptable, I think JV will be just fine.

I'd prefer to see one captain but It's shaping up to be a very tough choice in a few years if they both track the way they are currently. Nice problem to have.

Worshipping at the altar of Viney. Can't blame Hanley too much for that.

Please put a line through Brisbane, praha. I need to see that line.

This is where DLand needs a tagging option. Update required, praha.

Outweigh it by miles too. I can't help but wonder when reading comments about his body needing to mature. The punishment for such comments should be a Jack Viney body slam.

Who knew all that "gun shot" practice from Saty would pay off?

...against St Kilda. But yeah you're probably right. If Hogan does miss out he'll be getting one soon. It would be nice for it to be this game though, given it was a breakout game of sorts.

Not to in any way downplay Hogan's game but I never bought into the Rance being "best KPD in the league!!!11!!" hype. He's a solid defender, but seeing Hogan outmark him on several occasions didn't shock me. McPharlin will be a better test for Hoges. And yes, give him what he wants. If he wants a Boyd-like contract, do it.

He and Kent have got some genuine mongrel in them, and I like it.

Thanks Neeldy.

The Etihad and North droughts are the most ludicrous.

This is meant to be a judgement free zone, Sir, and I won't have you berating our number one patron.

The OWL is designed to contain the whingers in one location. if you don't wish to read it, don't enter. Now then, can I fix you a drink? Our Shirley Temple is famous.

I know mate, and it brings me a great deal of joy to see it serving its practical purpose

*wanders around to collect a few half empty glasses*

Watto MUST bat down the order at 5/6. He benefits which means the team benefits. Clarke looked very relaxed with some stroke play to remind everyone he's still one of the best going around. Starc is bowling Ike a man possessed. The tournament deserves an Aus v NZ final. The atmosphere will be off the scale.

Thanks be to Roos.

He just wasn't moving freely last season. You could see he was clearly labouring when he was running. IF that is rectified, and reports are suggesting that it might be, then we could be seeing a very different player from here onwards, but time will tell.

So he's a Pies supporter. Revenge for Pendles. Finally

Liking the multi-cultural flair. Greek, Lebanese and now Italian. And all three are guns in the making.

The law of averages says you're right but it then starts to enter a damned if you do or don't scenario. In the draftee interviews posted on the afl website, almost half picked Petracca to win the Rising Star, and they nominated him like it was an inevitability. I'm loving the hype, personally. I'm embracing it.

Given who we grabbed at Pick 40 last year, you bet it does
