  1. In earlier years players were not paid like they are now and many hung up the boots because they could no longer afford the time involved in playing at the highest level or what may seem strange now but there was more money available if you went to a VFA team or major leagues in the bush. 150 game players could literally double their pay by accepting a captains job at a club elsewhere.
  2. One swallow does not make It summer Mr. Shadow.
  3. And why play Smith who is a reasonable forward in the backline all year when he is clearly not a back man.
  4. Because there is no one else to help the Weid in the forward line.
  5. Spot on binman there is something physically wrong, who knows if it is fixable or not. He is talented we have all seen that, you don’t lose your talent unless something physical or mental is stopping you from using it to is max.
  6. If he bleeds red and blue why has he not sign by now It is September?
  7. It sounds feasible to me, have a look at him on Saturday he does not look connected to me.
  8. We demoted the captain at the start of this year, it’s not a long bow. And as you say we have a history of poor treatment.
  9. It is hard to see him leaving WA and even less chance of him returning to the MFC. He was a good player for us but also very high maintenance. I would love to have his 47 goal season back but it won’t happen.
  10. He is a restricted free agent so the club would have no say and little leverage. If he says I want out then the only thing they could do to keep him is match his offer. But would you want to do that if he wants to leave. The guy has lost the captaincy, the club pushed his old man out, the team is going nowhere fast and he may or not like the coach. It is not difficult to see why he would be looking around. He spent a good part of his early life in SA. Port seems an option to me. I have noticed that his conversations on field have dropped considerably and he is putting up good stats but if he was leaving he would want to keep putting in good performances to keep his value up. And why hasn’t he re signed. Looks like smoke and fire to me.
  11. The other glaring thing in his statement is he has had this team for 4 years now if he cannot get that out of them after 4 years he never will.
  12. The club has one! So nothing further than the past. I cannot see a Labor government failing on all side with no cash after the pandemic nightmare giving cash to a bunch of silver tails.
  13. So what is the up date RF? Or isn't there one.
  14. Don't disagree with any of that but it has us getting one last gasp of air RF. I seriously doubt it will happen but as the result all year show it is the most unpredictable season ever.
  15. Depends what you what you want to achieve before the start of the 2021 season.
  16. Sorry Redfox Adelaide, first engage brain before moving fingers.
  17. I think he is backing GWS to kick the sweep this week Waltham.
  18. Well potentially we could still sneak into the eight. Long shot but still possible. If we make finals Goodwin will survive for 2021.
  19. Excuse my ignorance but I thought the injuries to Harmes and Bradshaw were 2 -4 week injuries so I doubt they are in the frame.
  20. Carlton may just have saved Goodwins neck last night, well that is if there is any fight left in the team for the last two games.
