  1. A shower of sh— Pretty much a full strength team, we thought the result was a given. Ugh.
  2. Ask Chris Scott - apparently right up til first bounce 🤣
  3. Hawthorn are like Neeld-era Melbourne 🤮 Commentators fawning over Geelong - I can’t wait to play them!
  4. I know I go on about it a bit, but the levels of sensationalist journalism around the AFL are a disgrace. A stupid non-story like this is given a blaring headline and all of a sudden it’s in the news. Same goes with Luke Jackson - whatever you think of his move, getting blasted by the AFL media after 2 games is disgusting. Of course, be critical after a poor performance, but some of the stuff that comes from supposed senior commentators like Kane Cornes, just to make a headline, is awful.
  5. What is his core philosophy in terms of athletic development and where did he develop his ideas?
  6. 💯 Brisbane are not very good - we beat ourselves tonight.
  7. 6. Pickett 5. Gawn 4. Petracca 3. Lever 2. Chandler 1. Spargo
  8. Great to be back at the footy, especially when we play like that. The skills, especially the kicking, were so much better than last year (save for a couple of wobblers!). We also looked so fit. A nice highlight for me was deep into the last quarter, when McVee (who looked gassed) willed himself to a contest with English and spoiled the ball out of touch. Brayshaw ran over and gave him the biggest bear hug, like he’d just kicked the winner. He’s going to be something - what a pick up.
  9. Train from Balaclava with 2 of the kids, to take up our new place in the posh seats. Cannot wait for this season.
  10. I only saw a replay of the game, but it looked as if our kicking had improved greatly, but also the movement by hand - do you think this is a continuation of the long handball theory from the back end of last year The in depth analysis is so much appreciated - the pods are getting better and better. It would be great if you could somehow get Goody on, to have a chat with @binmanabout the loading and tactics theories. I’m sure he wouldn’t give much away, anyway, but would be fascinating to hear how close you guys are in your observations.
  11. I think this was the best attended of all the family days I’ve been to: it was good fun and the vibe was more low-key. Ben Brown is a quality human: it’s an admirable thing to see somebody so comfortable in themselves.
  12. First photo of a shorn BBB!
  13. Great information @Katrina Dee Fan and @dworship - thanks heaps.
  14. Great info - thanks all.
  15. Hi guys - I’ve just upgraded our Family Membership to Trident, after being on the waitlist. I notice that the package includes things like access to function rooms where players are interviewed before the game. Could any existing Trident member let me know what the process is for this - ie do you need to reserve a table? Thanks!

    The Irish are only made out to be stupid, so the English can understand them.
  17. I think only the 1st-4th year players are due back at the moment, although a few of the older guys have already returned.
  18. Don’t forget the Davey boys coming thru!
  19. How come we don’t get the home advantage of Casey?!
  20. Yes - a clumsy response if this is how it played out. Especially after the May/Melksham incident.
  21. Yes - he honoured the promise he made.
  22. Who knows which side Hunter and Schache fall into. Dunkley had obviously been keen to get out for some time!
  23. Listen to the interview - he’s clearly keen to be at the Dees. Comes across as a good guy, in the Lingers mould.
